Patrick Heniry, the fake vet who operated at Swindon Stadium prior to his conviction in 2011, has been convicted again after pulling off a similar scam over two years at a surgery in Taunton.

The court heard that the 59 year old South African had four previous convictions for similar offences and he was sentenced to three years in prison. Heniry took the name of a legitimate vet, Shaun Kehoe, when sentenced for his Swindon offenses in 2011.
