Cop Slams ‘Prolific’ Criminal Duo
“French and Cuthbert are prolific thieves who unabashedly and repeatedly flouted the law in quick succession,” said PC Ella Bootes. “When trying to bust it, they showed zero regard for other drivers and pedestrians by speeding recklessly. We applaud the court’s decision to lock them up and send a clear message – crime doesn’t pay.”
