Try the mirror. An idiot.
It depends upon several factors, including the value of the items taken and the place that they were taken from.

If the burglary was from a shop, office, factory or other place which was not a domestic residence, see page 19 here:

Burglary from a person's home is regarded as more serious than from elsewhere. See page 75 here:

Is this your first buglary or the first time you've been caught?
What were the circumstances? (What was taken? What damage? Anyone hurt? Any other offences you want to be taken into consideration.etc)
Heinous crime. The burglary of our house ruined our lives for many months. It caused us to move areas.So although this is not the question, I hope you get the maximum sentence.
well if it was up to me, 10 years hard labour.

Do you not realise how distresssing it is for the victim here? for what? what did you pinch?
Here here Micmac, I also have been burgled, both house and car broken into (not at the same time) so I also hope you get punished, no sympathy for you whatsoever...you are the lowest of the low. If karma exists i hope you get all your posession nicked and your home trashed.
could be a troll - 1st question inside 6 minutes. of signing on.......
bloody troll anyway for doing what he/she did
He's probably writing this on the pc he stole, scum bags like you need a good beating
why do these suspected trolls create a profile just to post a singular question and get lots of answers but you never hear from them again???? what is the point??
Perhaps the clue's in his AB name?
I know who he is, lardhelmet.

No less than Jimmy Carter, the 39th President of the States.
Do not joke DT. Unless you know what it is like. My wife lost all her jewellery and nearly her sanity. They turned the place over, literally. They took carrier bags to take ornaments.pictures etc. They even took the phone. When we got home we couldn't even ring the police. (This was before mobile phones)
Question Author
it was a empty house just took coke glasses i know ive done wrong i got pressered into it no excses though just looking for a answer
The sense of violation that somebody has been in your house is incredible - it matters not a jot whether it was two coke glasses or a Vermeer.

Burglary is a heinous crime and should be treated as such - the charmers that turned my house over a few years ago decided to crap in our bed and in my daughter's bedroom. Personally, I'd've liked to have seen the bastards that did this killed. No really. It was awful.

I would like to see burglars routinely banged-up, but the sad fact is that for reasons I don't understand, burglary isn't really considered a bad crime and therefore you will receive a smack on the wrist.

Which is a shame.

By the way - what's a Troll?
micmack - I was not joking at this Snag, only at lardhead's comment. If you had been through the thread, you should have noticed my troll comment. I sympathise with you. I have only been victim of losing a clutch bag in strange circumstances just outside Paris - 10pm one summer evening outside my appt in a very nice quiet street in St Germain-en-Laye (almost green fields behind). I had opened the front door and read a ty letter in the post, then loaded the shopping in as I had guests over the weekend. Come next morning (Saturday) could I find it, no. Turns out a Moroccan lifted it from the car - I didn't even notice him. He was apprehended after trying to pass a cheque - the old story of they start small and get greedier until somebody tripped him.

My mother had a major burglary - some 50k (back then) of art etc (even my two first class first place University class medals) and she was seriously tweaked. I sympathise with what happened to you and especially your Missus. - I presume there was no recovery. What tweaked her was they had obviously been watching her house - it was a daytime burglary.

My mother did get one picture back after about 3 years - it appeared in the paper for sale through a major London auction house and had started its progression in life from a boot sale. The police held onto it for about a year; its been cleaned up and is hanging here now ( a J Park, a St Ives painter).

Shame we hadn't colonised another planet to set up another Oz.......
