A Humansdorp attorney pleads guilty after admitting to stealing nearly R6 million from 14 deceased estates. Prosecutors say the money was meant for beneficiaries, but the attorney siphons funds into her personal accounts and into company accounts over a two-year period. The court hears that the conduct involves misappropriating estate funds that should have been distributed to heirs. The State describes the actions as a serious betrayal of those entitled to the proceeds of the estates. The case centres on how estate funds were handled and diverted from beneficiaries. No additional details about the attorney’s sentence, the exact timeline, or the breakdown of the funds across the 14 estates are provided in the available report. The matter proceeds on the basis of the guilty plea, with the prosecution record focusing on the scale of the theft and the number of estates affected.
