Ten Days Per Burglary

Glynn Brookes has spent the last few years committing burglaries on the homes of people away on holiday. Today the newspapers are trumpeting his MAMMOTH 12 year sentence.

Mammonth for a first time burglary, but it equates to just 10 days per each of his 400 burglaries committed. Of course, he wasn't charged with all four hundred, but he confessed he did them. Someone from Nottinghamshire's Perfomance Group must have been swimming in glee the day they got him in the traps. No doubt they'll spread the detections out over a couple of years...

The part of the story I love is the information that Brookes learned how to avoid the police by watching TV shows about forensic techniques. He must therefore have swaddled himself in an asbestos suit, including catheter, out of fear that we are able to pluck DNA from the air and reconstruct a crime accurately from two specks of dust on the wall.

Fantastic! Well done the judge! About time!

But when is his appeal? I have a sneaking feeling that he will get his sentence reduced for being 'unfairly harsh' and awarded damages amounting to many thousands of pounds for hurt feelings or some like thing.

Don't mean tp put a dampener on things but read NJ's recent post about time served and how these shits can get remission time. Sobering.

If only 12 years were 12 years. He'll do about 4 max.

I pity the poor tech who had to fill in the TIC form, must've taken a week.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/nottinghamshire/7638909.stm:

"A prolific burglar who admitted committing nearly 400 robberies in Nottinghamshire has been given a 12-year jail sentence."

Ooops.

Good old BBC :-)

The conviction of Glynn Brookes is a relief to homeowners but there are other issues of importance to the latter. However prolific he may have been, this burglar was neither smart nor professional. Evading detection for so long was equally an indictment of Nottinghamshire police.

The worst police force and the most inept criminal may be saved by inevitable good fortune. Either can bag a grouse alighting on the barrel of a loaded shotgun. What happens by pure chance merits no enhanced reputation for poacher or gamekeeper. As you already point out, Nottinghamshire police could claim a huge boost in their detection rates through this single conviction.

The irony of undeserved accolades will not be lost on the long suffering victims of Mr Brookes.

4 years max - guilty plea 1/3 off, qualifies for tag/curfew 1/3 off, he will get out and burgle again by 2012. Guaranteed.

He'll be out by 2012 anyway, claiming that missing the Olympics will breach his human rights, and that his victims should club together to buy him a new television to watch it all on.

Happy thoughts.

Is that not so?

I have been deceived.

CSI Miami is very true to life. No wonder he learnt so much from it. And he's got plenty of time to watch more now he's in prison for you know, MONTHS and stuff.

Incidentally I was just watching a US cop show just before reading this post. It had a similar criminal, though only six burglary's under his belt, none particularly gruesome and he got 15years. Nice thought, eh?

Let's congratulate Notts Police for once. They not only have this scrote but a couple of months ago have managed to get the prime movers in a gang convicted of murder and several other serious crimes.

Since these gits were arrested, Notts hasn't had a single gun murder.

But isn't it comforting to know that for the more ‘serious’ offenders the system has extra special procedures. In my previous area, down south, a convicted child ‘serial sex-offender’ was re-arrested for more of the same hideous crimes, less than 3 months after the Home Office et al decided to release him less than halfway through a 7 year sentence for indecency with children. Acting on information received, the local cops had info he was at it again within weeks of his release but all they could initially do with their available precious time was bring him before Magistrates and indicate his `suspicious behaviour` near children. The court made an order “forbidding him to go no closer than 30 feet from anyone under sixteen”. No GPS tracking device was fitted to him to monitor his speed of movement or fine him when he entered a congestion charge zone. Within weeks, several more young boys had their lives ruined by this monster. He’s now inside again, this time for “life” although I wonder how long that will mean. My former colleagues did a good job re-arresting him and presented the case that put him away, felt they were constantly putting in a mile of effort and paperwork in order to get one-inch results. No wonder they get demoralised. You couldn’t make this stuff up. It was another reason why I was glad to walk away. Lost the plot? No, to lose a plot, firstly there has to be one.

Clearly I'm in the wrong job. Is there a course I can do at the local FE or Technical College to learn the humble trade of house-breaking?

I know, there's probably a waiting list and all that, but I'm sure it's not 14 years long.
