Grimsby man jailed for over 3 years for assault, burglary and fraud
He admitted the offences
A Grimsby man's been jailed for 3 years and 4 months for assault, burglary, and fraud.
42 year old Phillip Beasant of Peaks Lane admitted the offences as well as the breaching of a non-molestation order.
The court heard Beasant repeatedly visited an address despite an order in place to say he wasn't allowed.
On one occasion he assaulted someone inside before stealing a mobile phone and twice he stole bank cards from inside which he then used fraudulently to make purchases.
Beasant was sentenced this week.
The officer in the case was DC Nikkie Culton, she said
“Humberside police take all reports of this nature incredibly seriously, and this is reflected in the outcome of this case.
“Beasant targeted the address with little care for the people who lived there, causing them to be fearful in their own home. I hope the custodial sentence gives the victims some comfort and they can feel safe again.
“The sentence handed down also gives Beasant the opportunity to reflect on the effects his crimes have had.”
