Stoica, of Hull, denied robbery but admitted theft. Stoian, who had 14 previous convictions for 27 offences, denied the offence outright and told officers he was a “God-fearing man and would never resort to stealing”.
Oh, well, I expect it amused the custody sergeant...
Brendan O’Leary, defending Stoian, said the married father-of-two had been working at a recycling centre and was the main breadwinner for his family.
I really don't think a life of crime counts as 'breadwinning', does it? Well, maybe in Romania...
Glen Parsons, defending Stoica, said his client had never been in trouble before this “mean” offence and was remorseful.
Sure, sure, we believe you...
Stoian was given an 18-month jail sentence. Stoica, due to his previous good character, received a 10-month prison term. They will both serve half their sentences behind bars before being released on prison licence.
Both men now face possible deportation, but Judge Hickey said that was a decision for the Home Secretary.
A pretty easy one, I'd hope...

The deportation should be automatic, and in the case of a 'main breadwinner' ought to include all dependants, as they should not fall a burden on the rest of us.
They're victims, I tell you! Look at how they were treated as children in the shithole of their birth! It's only natural that they'd want to bring their culcher with them: so many others do . . . .
Agree with anon 10:35. Get rid of the criminal and his family. Why on earth should we be expected to pay for any of them?

Agree!
"Why on earth should we be expected to pay for any of them?"
We're constantly told they 'enrich us'. I fear it's the other way around.
