Conman who drove a Ferrari is cleared of the actual theft but convicted of handling stolen goods and smuggling

A conman faces a long jail term for trying to make £1m by selling a stolen copy of the First Folio of Shakespeare's plays. Raymond Scott, who drove a Ferrari and bought designer clothes on non-existent credit, was cleared of the actual theft but convicted of handling stolen goods and smuggling the 387-year-old book to the US.
