A THUG convicted of a nasty violent home invasion did the jail time but soon after his parole release fell back to crime by using a gun to hijack a man’s car.
The carjacker, Cain Sturdy, pointed a gun at the man’s face when he saw him seated in a car parked on the driveway of a Ripley house.
Sturdy drove off with his girlfriend in the man’s Holden Commodore.
This week Ipswich District Court sentenced Sturdy for six offences – armed robbery in company at Ripley on November 14, 2019; two charges of unlawful use of a stolen car; committing burglary; stealing fuel; and receiving tainted property – a firearm.
