Robbed hotel licensee case ends in court verdicts
Vera Doreen Warke Hunt and Bruce Henry Stringer faced charges in Benalla for thefts from the Victoria Hotel and a separate fountain pen theft. Hunt and Silver admitted to stealing from Warke and a camera from David Dunian’s room, with Hunt later fined and given a good behavior bond, while Silver received a four year sentence for multiple thefts. The proceedings detail how the pair coordinated the scheme, with testimonies from Detective Keppell and local magistrates.
