A "prolific" burglar targeted a vicar's house and a school on parents' evening during a crime spree.
James Santamera broke into a staggering 18 homes, businesses and other properties during his latest spate of offending in the autumn of last year. He had only recently been released from prison on licence at the time.
Liverpool Crown Court heard today, Thursday, that the 46-year-old was jailed for four years in February 2019 over eight other burglaries. After being freed from this term, he handed himself in at St Anne Street Police Station in November last year stating he had "come under threat".
