Man Jailed for Six Years Following Brighton and Hove Burglary Spree

Billy Hall, 50, has been sentenced to six years behind bars for a string of burglaries across Brighton and Hove

A 50-year-old man has been sentenced to six years in prison for a series of burglaries targeting homes and a business across Brighton and Hove.

Billy Hall, of North Road, Brighton, appeared at Lewes Crown Court on 14 October where he pled guilty to multiple counts of burglary. His offences spanned from April to August this year, with Hall breaking into properties in Dyke Road, Highcroft Villas, Chalfont Drive, and a business in Stanford Avenue, Brighton.

The court heard how Hall carried out the burglaries during the night, often while the occupants were asleep. He stole thousands of pounds worth of valuables, including cash, jewellery, laptops, a mobile phone, and a bank card.

Detective Constable Grace Boyle, who was involved in the investigation, highlighted the impact of Hall’s crimes on his victims. She said, “Burglary is a very serious offence, and we are pleased that the defendant has received a sentence which reflects this. It will make a difference in preventing further victims from suffering the traumatic experience of having their home burgled by this repeat offender.”
