Yahoo News Criminals dealt with by Cornwall's courts
After last week's absence of Cornwall Live's weekly magistrates' round-up, it's back and with two week's worth of criminals to name and shame.
Cornwall's magistrates' courts usually deal with a huge variety of cases, ranging from petty crimes such as shoplifting to serious offences that eventually end up in long prison sentences.
At Bodmin and Truro, the courts handle all the criminal cases in Cornwall. Everyone who has been charged with an offence, from the least to the most serious, appears first of all before the magistrates. All offences come before the magistrates, although the most serious ones are sent up to the crown court.
If a defendant pleads guilty they could be sentenced straight away or have the matter put back for a pre-sentence report. If they deny the allegations against them the case will be adjourned for a trial.
The courts are open to anyone and our reporters attend just like any other member of the public. As most people have jobs and cannot spend their time at court, the media has always acted as the eyes and ears of the public to ensure that justice is seen to be done.
Here's who has been sentenced at the magistrates' court in Bodmin and Truro recently...
