Victoria Yellop, a Trinity-trained violinist, was in court today charged with helping to burgle a house she was looking after for a friend, resulting in the theft of £25,000 worth of goods.

Yellop, 34, admitted theft and perverting the course of justice. She was given a suspended sentence after the judge accepted that she had been bullied into crime by a violent boyfriend.
