A burglar struck at the same home three times after the resident, a hoarder, had died and her property was full of possessions, a court heard. The devastated family of the deceased had not got round to removing her belongings in Osborne Grove, Sherwood, leaving Adrian Chalados, 31, of Highbury Road, Highbury Vale, free to steal from the council-owned home.
Drug addict Chalados, who was homeless, carried out burglaries three times between April 16 and April 27, 2020, after the death in January of that year.
The defendant was given a chance when he was sentenced for those crimes before Nottingham Crown Court on June 25, 2020, to 12 months in prison, suspended for two years. But he breached the order with more drug-related offending.
