    The homeowner, in her 60s, found him wedged on the windowsill 15ft (3m) up in the air after returning from a trip to the shops.

    At least he had the decency to the the shopping in first.

    He had pleaded guilty to burglary with intent to steal

    Is there any other kind?

    Is there any other kind?

    Yep (you can add this to your “I didn’t know that” thread): (1) to cause GBH and (2) damage the building.

    Should have left him there for a bit before calling the cops. Like some kind of tragicomic art installation.

    There’s also the kind where mysterious unknown assailants enter your home and scatter your childrens belongings, especially toys and trainers, all over the place.
    They also sometimes eats crisps and sweets and hide the wrappers behind furniture and under beds.

    as above ‘burglary’ is the entry bit – the offence has to specify why.

    There was a fascinating program on Radio about how law on burglary and theft evolved on Radio last week. Amazing how important it used to be for people to secure their homes in order for theft to be committed.

    Right. I thought burglary was specifically “on the rob, innit” otherwise it was breaking & entering or some such. Cheers.

    I loved that the BBC reported “<he> hurt his ear in the raid”.

    I’d have been tempted to knock his legs off the window sill & do us all a favour. Thriving s scumbag.

    I’d have wee’d in his boots while he was stuck there…

    Probably been” thriving”a bit too much if he got stuck in the window.
    I reckon his “thriving”days are over for a while now

    Full marks to the journalist for using ‘botched’ rather than ‘bodged’.

    GBH
    Rape
    Steal

    The latter is far more common as you might imagine…

    It’ gets even more complicated.

    Burglary: Any person who enters a building or any part of a building with the intention of
    Stealing anything
    Damaging any thing
    Raping any person
    Committing grievous bodily harm
    is guilty of burglary

    Or
    Any person who, having entered as a trespasser any building or part of a building
    Steals any thing or
    Inflicts grievous bodily harm on any person therein

    91a vs 91b, for anyone still interested…

    Rape was removed a few years ago. 9 1(a) is steal, damage, GBH, 9 1(b) is steal & GBH.

    Good work Clipper – I think I knew that once but had forgotten.
