A JUDGE jailed a burglar for two months this week after he pleaded guilty to breaking in to a house in Newcastle West and stealing €1,320 worth of property.
Gardai charged Marin Willezwski from Templegreen in Newcastle West after finding his fingerprints at the scene of the crime in a house in Churchtown.
Mr Willezwski admitted burgling the house on September 30 and stealing a laptop computer, PlayStation equipment and three watches to the value of €1,320.
The District Court sitting in Newcastle West on Friday was told that none of the property had been recovered.
- External Walls: Up to €8,000 Grant
- Attic: Up to €1,500 Grant
- Cavity Walls: Up to €1,700 Grant
- Internal Dry Lining: Up to €4,500 Grant
Prosecuting Garda Inspector Gearoid Thompson told the court that Mr Willezwski is currently serving a two year sentence “for similar matters” and described him as a “prolific burglar”. However, he added that he had co-operated fully with GardaÃ.
Judge Carol Ann Coolican imposed the two month sentence to run concurrently with the sentence that he is currently serving.
