McGregor breaks into home of security guard and goes to prison

Joel McGregor

The saying goes: three strikes and you’re out. Well, for Joel McGregor after his third offence he’s in… in jail that is. At age twenty, McGregor has a conviction for burglary and one for theft on his rap sheet. His most recent charge came on Monday when he was arraigned for Burglary and was denied bail because of his previous crimes. He is accused of breaking into the home of fifty-eight year old Elijah Gordon, a security guard at the Youth Cadet Corp in Hattieville. Gordon claims that McGregor stole two DVD players, one hundred and thirty assorted DVDs and over one thousand dollars in cash from his home on January twenty-third. While he denied the allegations, he was imprisoned until March tenth after Magistrate Edd Usher upheld the prosecution’s objection to bail.
