Take a look at these two jaspers! Not quite the dynamic duo!
Quote:Rotherham brothers threatened to cut shopkeeper's throat with axe and Stanley knifeYorkshire Live:
'Two brothers have been jailed for a decade after holding up a high street shop and threatening to cut the
shopkeeper's throat with an axe and Stanley knife. Hooded Stephen and Christopher Bouskill raided the
shop in Wath-upon-Dearne on October 26, 2019, and demanded cash from the till.
Christopher and Stephen Bouskill, the genuine odd-couple.
The siblings ripped the shopkeeper’s pockets on his trousers to take his keys and wallet and made off
following the three-minute ordeal. Christopher Bouskill, 40, was later found by police having driven a
Peugeot 406 into floodwater.
He was chased by a police dog and was arrested.
Upon his arrest, officers found him to be wearing a pair of black trainers he had worn while committing a
burglary in Church Street three days earlier during which he had taken a laptop computer and £700 ($982)
in cash. Jewellery worn by the victim at her wedding had also been stolen.
Sheffield Crown Court heard Christopher Bouskill had carried out the offences while on bail for being found
with a weapon while in prison. Andrew Stranex, prosecuting, said he had been found during an inspection of
one of the prison wings to have a vape pen with a piece of metal embedded in it.
His brother Stephen, aged 45, had also carried out a burglary at a house in Bradley Rise on October 17 where
he stole £10,000 worth of valuables including jewellery worn by the victim’s late mother.
Both Christopher and Stephen Bouskill, of Albany Road, Rotherham, admitted one count of burglary and robbery.
Christopher Bouskill admitted a separate charge of possession of a weapon in prison and was sentenced to
10 years and two months in prison. Stephen Bouskill was sentenced to 10 years in prison...'
