He was arrested on July 6 and subsequently charged with burglary on July 8.

Investigating officer Detective Constable Kerry Mitchell, based at Milton Keynes police station, said: “Burglary is a horribly invasive crime which impacts on victims who have a right to feel safe in their own homes.

“We will always investigate such offences robustly and bring offenders to justice, and Lee will now serve a prison sentence to reflect on his actions.”
