Derek Klein was a British postage stamp dealer, collector and accountant, who spent 16 months in jail in 2007-08 for stealing over decades, as their treasurer, £70,000 from two church parishes in Norfolk. In an unusual court ruling, the judge at his trial allowed him to repay the money he had stolen through the gradual piecemeal sale of the stamps he had bought with the proceeds of his fraud, instead of potentially yielding less at auction.
