Katie Price's fraud teenager refused bail during court appearance

A teenager accused of impersonating Katie Price in order to defraud her has appeared in court.

Kerry Marshall, who was arrested last weekend, only spoke to confirm her name and date of birth during the 30-minute hearing, at which she appeared via video-link at Lincoln Magistrates' Court.

The 18-year-old is accused of pretending to be the former glamour model in
order to obtain £14,000 from one of her bank accounts.

CCTV from a Lincolnshire branch of HSBC showed a woman wearing a long blonde wig and sunglasses attempt to withdraw money.

Speaking about the fraud earlier this week, Price said: "It is just terrifying that this could have been allowed to happen. It's really horrible. All I know is that police have footage of these people pretending to be me."

According to This is Lincolnshire, Marshall's status is listed as a pre-op transsexual. An application for bail was denied, while the cast was adjourned until November 10, when an interim hearing will take place, ahead of a further hearing at Lincoln Crown Court on November 18.
