Default Why on earth.....

Did he return to UK?

Was he so deluded that he thought he would be exonerated?

And you don't get community service for nicking £150m. He'll go down for years.

You don't get 6 months for nicking £30m

He wants to clear his name. He doesn't believe that he has done anything wrong.

Unfortunately for him the jury doesn't agree so far.

He may well possess a degree of self importance which make him think that he did no wrong and believed that the court would feel the same way.

His wife appears to feel the same way since she keeps saying he is completely innocent even if he did make off with all those millions!
