"Every sentence handed down makes the communities of Merseyside and beyond safer from the harm, distress and inconvenience that burglary brings.
"Key to these successes can often be information from those communities being targeted, so I would continue to ask people to report anything suspicious, and come forward with any information you may have seen or heard."
