Prolific shoplifter jailed for thefts weeks after receiving suspended sentence for stealing
A prolific shoplifter has been jailed after carrying out a series of thefts less than three months after receiving a suspended sentence for stealing from a supermarket.
Katie Wadsworth was handed a nine-month prison term when she appeared at Kidderminster Magistrates Court on May 27.
She admitted six counts of theft from across three stores, offences which triggered a suspended jail sentence she received in March.
Between May 6-8 she stole energy drinks worth £18 from Sainsbury's in Kidderminster, before going on to target the town's Tesco store four times in the space of 12 days.
On May 10 she stole meat and milkshakes worth £40 and then took make up worth £56 six days later.
