Anthony Bailey rooted through her bedroom drawers while she showered in the en-suite
A burglar rooted through a Nottinghamshire woman's bedroom drawers while she showered in the en-suite. Anthony Bailey, targeted the property in Bramcote Drive, Beeston , on February 27 after being caught trying to break into a home in nearby Sidney Road.
Recorder Stuart Sprawson said Bailey went into the woman’s room “clearly looking for valuables”, adding: “To say she was shocked and frightened undermines the situation." Prosecutors said “determined attempts” had been made to enter the kitchen window before the defendant was disturbed. Recorder Sprawson said: “You went out with your dog that day and I take the view that it was part of your disguise should someone find you on their premises.
Ms Hodgkinson, mitigating, said Bailey knew what he did was "entirely unacceptable and holds his hands up". She added: "He has ongoing issues with alcohol, he says he has cried out for help from the probation service."
