Fudge thief swears as he is sent to prison

Jimmy Andrews, 21, was led down from the dock swearing at Portsmouth Magistrates’ Court as he was jailed.

He had previously been handed a suspended term for shoplifting, and another conditional discharge after that was imposed last year.

Andrews, of Old Road, Gosport, also owed around £1,000 for previous court costs.

District judge Anne Arnold said: ‘You were warned as to the consequences.’

He admitted the theft at Co-op in Palmyra Road, Gosport on December 12 on a ‘complete downer’.

He got five days for the fudge theft, five for the previous costs owed to court and five for the suspended term, all to run alongside each other.
