Druggie Who Nicked From His Family Given A Chance To Get Clean

A drug-addict, who burgled his own grandmother's home of £11,000 worth of jewellery and repeatedly stole from his mother, was given his freedom and a chance to kick his habit yesterday.

Daniel Moore, 21, appeared at Croydon Crown Court, supported by members of his family, where he was sentenced to sixteen months imprisonment, suspended for two years and ordered to comply with a nine-month drug rehabilitation order.

He had already pleaded guilty to burgling his grandmother's address in Lindbergh Road, Wallington on January 23.

Moore (pictured) also admitted stealing valuables from his mother in Gurney Road, Carshalton last year on November 17; November 21; December 19; December 20; December 22 and this year on January 8 and June 17.

Most of the stolen property was jewellery and was exchanged for cash at local pawnbroker shops.

The defence claim most of it has been recovered.
