Jerry Maughan, a 25-year-old robber, was sentenced to three years and four months in prison for stealing a handbag from a 92-year-old woman in Rainham. The incident occurred on March 11, 2024, when Maughan approached the victim while she was out walking her dog and snatched her handbag, resulting in the elderly lady being knocked to the ground and sustaining injuries. Kent Police swiftly arrested him, leading to a prompt charge. Detective Constable Emma Laimbeer condemned Maughan's actions, emphasizing the lasting impact on the victim and the commitment to bring such offenders to justice.
This despicable man had nothing but contempt for his victim and cared nothing for her safety. He subjected her to a frightening ordeal and his abhorrent actions have had a lasting impact.
Officers hunted him down and just after 4pm, Maughan was arrested at a nearby home and charged the following day.
