Man who set up burglary prevention business jailed for burglary

A man who set up a business telling homeowners how to protect their home from burglars has been sent back to prison, for burglary.

Sam Edwards, 28, launched "Sam's Burglary Prevention" in 2019, offering homeowners tips on how to avoid being targeted by thieves. At the time, Edwards said he had turned his back on crime, having previously stolen "£20m worth" of goods.

He said he had developed a wide set of skills over his 11 year criminal carer and boasted at the time he could get through any door with a chisel "quieter than a homeowner could with a key".
