Brother steals brother’s laptop and cash

A man was sentenced in court today after pleading guilty to stealing from his own brother. Twenty-six year old Ronny Pollard was charged with Burglary and two counts of Handling Stolen Goods in Magistrates’ Court. His brother, Justin Pollard, reported that upon returning to their home from work on Monday, his Gateway laptop, Dell monitor and over one thousand five hundred dollars in cash were missing from his room. The estimated value of the stolen items is over five thousand dollars. The police later recovered the items, but not the cash. Ronny pleaded guilty to the charges and Magistrate Aretha Ford sentenced him to one year for each count of the offences.
