A man who raided a Peterborough children’s charity, and another who defrauded his vulnerable aunt out of thousands of pounds are among those to have been jailed for crimes in and around the city this month.
Jack Hilton was locked up for 32 months for crimes including a raid on Little Miracles, while Stephen Jones defrauded his partner’s elderly aunt out of more than £53,000 while she was in a care home suffering from dementia. He was jailed for more than two years.
Another man, Mohammed Jamal Qadeer, was jailed for three years after stabbing a man in the city.
These are not all the criminals jailed in September – but just the ones who Cambridgeshire police have published a picture of.
