In brief
The Crown Prosecution Service is selling off a collection of Elvis memorabilia seized from a woman who pleaded guilty to stealing over £500,000 from her local authority employer. Powers under the Proceeds of Crime Act 1995 were used to confiscate the thousands of items which Margaret Wall had bought with the money. They include lobby cards, magazines, movie programmes, Christmas cards, and records as well as a 1964 Elvis credit card receipt from his Texaco Gas account. The collectables will go under the hammer on 10 June. The proceeds of the sale will be used to pay compensation to North Kesteven District Council.
