Dale Simpson is now back behind bars
Dale Simpson was jailed for 62 weeks when he appeared at Warrington magistrates court this week. The 35-year-old, of Museum Street, Warrington , had earlier pleaded guilty to six counts of fraud, handling stolen goods and breaching a criminal behaviour order.
The court heard how between Monday, November 11 and Wednesday, November 13, Simpson used stolen bank cards to buy items totalling £322.11 at 16 locations across Warrington. These included £79 at Cash Convertors, £70 at Foot Asylum and more than £30 at Ice and Slice.The cards had earlier been stolen from a car parked outside an address on Lavender Gardens, Warrington, on Monday, November 11.
Simpson was identified through CCTV footage and arrested at his home on November 27. He was also charged with breaching a Criminal Behaviour Order, which prevents him being in possession of any bank card, credit card or store card that is not in his name. Following his sentencing , PC Lewis Hand of Warrington Local Policing Unit said: "Simpson is a prolific offender who has a long history of committing serious acquisitive crime, which causes considerable harm to our communities. Despite our attempts to engage with him to reduce his offending, he continues to commit crime.
"Thankfully, our officers we're quickly able to identify him as the offender in this case, and as a result of his actions he is now back in prison."
