In case you missed it yesterday, BBC’s Caught Red Handed featured the case of Christopher Hope, who was jailed for more than four-and-a-half years following three burglaries, two attempted burglaries and two thefts.
Cleveland Police’s DI Louise Sproson explains how Stockton CID caught Hope after a “brazen” burglary in Billingham, and how they gained the evidence leading to his convictions.
