But they can pay back every penny of the benefits and if they've spent it, stay in jail until they've worked it off at minimum wage, which would be fair.
I'm assuming their story is that she's been living there up to late last year when the story broke, in which case no benefit fraud has taken place. If the police can't prove she wasn't, what can they do? Plainly there's suspicion but evidence is needed. She could've 'disappeared' any time in the last 17 years.
