Lee Jamie Clarkson, 30, was sentenced to 20 months for raids in the town
A “prolific” burglar has been jailed.
Lee Jamie Clarkson, 30, from Barmouth appeared before Caernarfon Crown Court on Friday January 13.
He was charged with two residential burglaries which he carried out in Barmouth in September last year.
Clarkson was jailed for 20 months.
Speaking after the case DC Gareth Jones of Gwynedd CID said he hoped the sentence will reassure the community.
He said: “When an individual commits a domestic burglary, invades your home and steals property it is not uncommon for victims to feel violated.
“It is therefore reassuring and welcoming the Criminal Justice System shares our concern and imposes custodial sentences on those intent on disrupting and disregarding the lives of others.
“Following the crimes being reported investigating officers arrested Clarkson and faced with overwhelming evidence he pleaded guilty at the earliest opportunity.
“Clarkson is a prolific offender and I hope this provides the community with reassurance that offenders who commit this type of crime will be pursued, caught and placed before the courts.
“Fortunately, crimes of this nature are rare in the area and together with our local communities we must ensure it stays so.
“However, we can’t do this alone and it is worth reminding householders to ensure that your property is locked and secured and if you see anything suspicious contact us immediately.”
