Naomi Campbell banned for five years from charity trustee position.

Hangdogroad

Supermodel Naomi Campbell, who can't be short of a bob or two, seemed be living the high life from the proceeds of a charitable organisation she set up.

Accepting blood diamonds from war criminal Charles Taylor, physically assaulting her maid and driver (those are the two cases that are known about mind) spitting at customs and police during an air rage incident, its fair to conclude that she's some piece of work. Adam Clayton dodged a bullet when they came close to marrying in the early 90s.

I always wondered why we needed so many charities doing the same thing.
Everyone gets paid and if there’s some money left over for the cause, that’s a happy accident.
Console, Peter McVerry Trust here and so many others were up to no good too…

Banned for 5 years fair enough. Where's the order for her to pay the money back?

She stole money from people, money that was given with the best of intentions. She deserves an actual punishment not this slap on the wrist.

She dated Diddy Combs as well. She's been associated with some very shady characters down the years.

I think prison for them all plus repayment

"Consultancy fees" is always a good one…..

I don't think Campbell knows any different she seems to be in some kind of different world or bubble since a very young age. And had no one tell her to cop on to herself. A product of a broken family as well, maybe that has something to do with the sheer level of entitlement she embodies? No Daddy on her birth cert.

I worded that post wrong. I meant fair enough as in that was the courts decision we have to live it. I agree prison is where she should be. I'm sure any of us here would be in prison under the same circumtances.

The grandfather is Nelson Mandela. Corrupt to the Core. Come work for a "Charity". 97% of your donation goes to into the charity (advertising, promotion, Business after hours, Rent, Consultancy, Accountant, lawyers etc etc), in the good ones 3% goes to the End user.

Wake up people Charities are for rich people to tell you you are privileged to be poor while getting a tax write off for themselves. Really wealthy people donate all their money to charity to avoid tax, then name themselves (and family) as directors and everything is an expense for the directors. The biggest scam going is the word "philanthropist".
