43-year-old mother-of-5, Janine Adeleke, 43, who ran a luxury escort agency was on Friday jailed for 3 years after being found guilty of money laundering, cheating the public revenue, and Tax Credits and benefit fraud at Canterbury Crown Court, U.K. She raked in handouts from the state while running Carltons of London, which describes itself as London’s “finest luxury boutique escort service”. One of her children was sent to an exclusive private school which charges fees of up to £30,000 a year and her family enjoyed top-end gym membership and private medical care. .

In total, she spent a staggering £120,000 on private schools between November 2006 and January 2014, as well as shelling out tens of thousands of pounds for beauty treatments and holidays. . She used her elderly mother’s bank account to launder £157,000 in a scam which saw her hide a total of £650,000 from the taxman.

The HMRC said she stole more than £300,000 in unpaid income tax, National Insurance Contributions and Tax Credit Payments, as well as claiming more than £37,000 in income support.

Richard Las, Deputy Director of the HMRC’s Fraud Investigation Service said: “Adeleke broke the law to fund a lavish lifestyle and private education for her children, stealing money from vital public services designed to support and help struggling families." Confiscation proceedings have started to reclaim the money she stole.

Why does the white man have problems when a black man gets rich and lives his life. They start investigating you based on suspicion as a result of your black skin & if they find out you ain't dealing drugs they cook up tax evasion stories. Freaking pricks!!! like its a crime to send your kids to private schools, they feel only whites kids should go there.

What's your problem, she hid 650k in a scam and defrauded hmrc of 300k in tax revenue and your best defence is that.
