A man and a woman from Boston have been sentenced for a series of burglaries across the area.
Bartoz Lysoniewski, 28, of Mandarin Drive, Boston, appeared at Lincoln Crown Court on 15th May, receiving a prison sentence of four years and five months after pleading guilty to three counts of burglary and possession of a class B drug, amphetamine, at Boston Magistrates' Court on 30th March.
His partner, Abigail Crowe, 20, from the same address, received a 12-week custodial sentence suspended for 12 months on 25th March.
Lysoniewski was apprehended in the early hours of 27th February by officers conducting patrols due to the emergence of a burglary spree in Boston.
During a search, officers found a hammer, chisel, cash, and various tools in Lysoniewski's backpack.
He was arrested on suspicion of going equipped to steal, and further arrests linked him to burglaries on Roseberry Avenue, Woodthorpe Avenue, and National Terrace.
A search of his property uncovered stolen goods and devices related to other burglaries.
Lysoniewski pleaded guilty to three counts of burglary and theft, possession of class B drugs, and a jury found him guilty of going equipped for theft.
Abigail Crowe was found guilty of handling stolen goods and possessing cannabis.
The court heard Crowe sold stolen items in second-hand stores in Boston and Skegness.
In addition to her suspended sentence, she must pay costs and a victim surcharge totaling ÂŁ239 and fulfill court-mandated rehabilitation activity requirements.
Detective Constable Matt Wharton of Boston CID said, "Every investigation, every arrest, and every outcome forms part of our sustained commitment to protect our communities.
"While sentences may sometimes feel disappointing, they do not deter us. We will do everything within our power to collate the strongest and most robust evidence possible to bring those who break the law before the courts.
"We remain relentless and consistent in challenging those who show a flagrant disregard for other people and their property, because safeguarding victims and protecting our communities from such individuals remains imperative."
