Oh it gets worse. Some of the posties took out loans, such as remortgaging their homes, to pay the debt, then quit the job, so the records are only available to the people running horizon. They’re having major issues getting that money back.
I never got the impression that any of those prosecuted, or who paid, were actually made whole as they should have been. At best they got a pittance and at worse they got nothing and had to pay on the legal bill. A complete miscarriage of justice no matter how you look at it.
