For a start, and not wanting to judge a person by one small photograph (but I will anyway), she looks like she's more than entitled to council tax benefit. Therefore I suspect she was either too bone idle to get off her arse and chase it up.
Secondly, unless she lived in a Band F property, it's at least 12 months of arrears.
There was nothing to stop her going to Citizen's Advice and arranging an affordable payment plan. Unlike private creditors, councils are usually happy to take a payment of as little as a few quid a week.
I have no sympthy for her and think the person who paid it off is a mug.
