Father stole his own children's Christmas presents
Santa keeps two lists - one for the naughty, one for the nice.
Joshua Seivwright found himself on the former list.
The 20-year-old from Wales broke into a home to steal his own children's Christmas presents after an altercation with his partner Katie Thomas.
When told to "stay away" from the house by Ms Thomas, a court heard how Mr Seivwright told her: "If you’re not going to let me in, I’ll break in."
Followed by: "You’ve ruined my Christmas, so I’ll ruin yours."
Which he did.
CCTV footage showed Mr Seivwright breaking into the house through a window six days before Christmas.
He stole his two sons' Playstation and games which he later sold at a game shop.
Mean burglary
Mr Seivwright was arrested and sentenced to eight months in prison.
He confessed that the burglary was conducted just weeks after his release from prison for a similar offence.
"You stole your children’s Christmas presents. This was a mean burglary," said the judge.
