We have a couple of positive updates for you from the courts this morning (Tuesday 18 February).
First up, James Vincent Durber, aged 35 years, of no fixed abode, was jailed today after committing theft offences in Fareham.
He was charged over the weekend in relation to the following incidents:
Durber had previously been given a Conditional Discharge on 20 January for three earlier shoplifting offences at Westbury Mall in November 2019. Durber breached this by committing the most recent offences.
He appeared at Portsmouth Magistrates’ Court today where he was jailed for 24 weeks and ordered to pay £200 in compensation for the stolen bike.
Next up, Robert Andrew Parker, aged 35 years, of Gosport Road in Fareham, was also jailed for 24 weeks today at the same court.
This is in relation to the following, to which he pleaded guilty:
Parker had previously denied the November offences, but changed his plea this morning. He had also been subject to a conditional discharge from 29 January this year for possession of cannabis, which he breached by committing the offences this month.
