DISGRACED TOOWOOMBA CAR SALESMAN BACK BEFORE COURT

- PETER HARDWICK

DISGRACED former Toowoomba car salesman David James Craigen has had charges against him adjourned in the city’s magistrate­s court.

The 54-year-old, who in August 2021 was jailed for four years with a non-parole period of nine months after having pleaded guilty to a $150,000 fraud offence dating back to 2018/19, had recently been released from custody.

He was not required to be in court for mention of his matters on Tuesday and was represente­d by Sophie Ford.

Ms Ford said they were yet to receive a brief of evidence.

Craigen has not been asked to enter any pleas to the charges of one count of “fraud to the value of $30,000 but less than $100,000” and eight counts of stealing.

Magistrate Kay Ryan remanded Craigen on bail and adjourned the case to July 5.
