David Stephenson, 50, was spared jail after quickly coming clean and showing genuine remorse

But instead of filling up company vehicles, he filled up cars used by his drug dealers in exchange for their illicit deliveries, a court was told. Stephenson quickly came clean after being questioned by his bosses, admitting he had been battling with a ‘pernicious drug habit’, and was sacked.
