After getting robbed once, this crafty Britt setup a webcam with motion detection software, and caught the thief when he returned to rob the guy again. The thief took the PC, but since the images were being uploaded online, police were able to use the photo's to prosecute and convict the criminal.

"This man's name is Ben Park. He broke in to my flat in the South of Cambridge on Friday 4th February 2005. I had a video camera with motion detection software set up on my computer. It captured these images of him.

The police identified him from the photos, and on 15th February 2005, he was sentenced to 11 months in prison by Cambridge Magistrates' Court. The police tell me that he is a career burglar, and has been in prison for burglary twice before. He should have been dealt with by the Crown Court, and received a much longer sentence. There is something very wrong with a justice system that permits a repeat offender like this to get away with such a light sentence. "
