Michael Delaney, a 37-year-old resident of Oil Street, Vauxhall, has been handed a three-and-a-half-year prison sentence following his involvement in a series of burglaries that targeted elderly individuals in Crosby. The verdict was delivered yesterday, August 30, at the Liverpool Crown Court.
Delaney’s crimes date back to March 4, 2023, when he unlawfully entered the residence of an elderly man in Crosby. Inside the house, he trailed his victim while falsely claiming to have performed gutter cleaning work earlier. He demanded payment for his fabricated services, coercing the elderly man.
