Two Men Plead Guilty to Stealing £20,000 Worth of Biscuits

It might seem amusing at first, but given that we’re all in the midst of a biscuit drought at the moment, this is pretty serious stuff.

Two men from Liverpool have pleaded guilty to the theft of £20,000 of biscuits.

Newport Crown Court in South Wales heard how a trailer stacked with Jammie Dodgers and Cadbury’s Chocolate Fingers was found abandoned in Warrington on 17 June last year following the theft at Burton’s Biscuits in Cwmbran, Wales.


Aaron Walsh, 25 and Anthony Edgerton, 35, both appearing via video link from HMP Liverpool and HMP Altcoursre, pleaded guilty to the theft of the biscuits and the HGV trailer.

Edgerton also pleaded guilty to driving while disqualified and his part in the attempted theft of 1,980 cases of lager on 17 May 2015.


The two men will be sentenced by Judge David Williams on March 15.
