Patrick Cassidy
Last month, a man who threatened an elderly couple with a knife in their Slough home had his appeal to overturn his 15-year prison sentence thrown out.
Patrick Cassidy, formerly of Stanborough Avenue, Borhamwood, told the man and woman to hand over money and gold when he broke into their house in November 2019.
Despite this, Cassidy left empty-handed and fled, but police caught him a short distance away from the property.
The crook had been in prison prior to this, and escaped from HMP Hollesey in August 2019 when he was found to be missing at the morning roll call and did not return.
