Millionaire’s daughter told ‘prepare for jail’

A MILLIONAIRE’S daughter was told to prepare for prison yesterday after being convicted of driving looters on a late-night crime spree at the height of last summer’s riots.

Laura Johnson, 20, chauffeured the group through London on 8 August last year in her Smart car. As they cruised around, her passengers leaped from the car clad in hooded tops, bandanas and balaclavas to loot.

The University of Exeter student, from Orpington, London, was convicted of one count of burglary and one of handling stolen goods.

She was cleared of two other burglary charges and a charge of handling stolen goods by the Inner London Crown Court jury.

Johnson showed no reaction as the verdicts were delivered by a jury who had deliberated for almost 11 hours.
