Financial transactions showed Miller sent Rollins £1,000 for a bet on one occasion, when he had “insisted” that it would pay-off, and sent him more than £1,000 on another occasion to pay his rent.
When Rollins started dating Miller he was already seeing another woman, Alisha Steeds, after meeting her in February 2022. She gave the police officer £1,500 to cover his rent.
Rollins said he “always intended to pay her back”, but the court heard that Miller had given him money to pay to Steeds, which he had gambled away.
The court also heard from trainee solicitor Emily Busby, who met Rollins on a dating app in 2023, and said she lent him money after feeling sorry for him.
She gave Rollins £800 to pay the deposit on his accommodation after he “gambled away” money he had been given by his parents.
