Surrey Man Escapes Jail Behind Bars After Maidstone Burglary
Tom Buckley, 32, from St. Clair Close, Surrey, dodged immediate prison after pleading guilty to a Maidstone burglary. The crime happened on 19 July 2021, targeting a non-dwelling property.
Six-Month Prison Sentence Suspended
On 3 February 2022, Maidstone Magistrates’ Court handed Buckley a six-month prison sentence — but it’s suspended for two years. That means if he stays out of trouble, he won’t serve time behind bars.
Fines and Costs Hit the Pocket
- £50 fine
- £128 surcharge
- £250 court costs
Buckley must also fork out these fees on top of his suspended sentence.
