; A TEENAGE yob from Clitheroe who robbed ano th er teenager and flouted an Anti-Social Behaviour. Order into the bargain has been


sent to detention for 16 months. Seventeen-year-old Jordan Jeffries, of Holden


f


Street, already had an 18-page criminal record for more than 70 offences and had been given almost ' every sentence going, Burnley Crown Court heard.

. The defendant, whose pre-sentence report was : said to make “depressing reading”, had taken cash ■from the victim while his accomplice made threats and demanded the victim and his friend, who was also robbed, drive them to Clitheroe. He had claimed he had a knife. . Passing sentence. Recorder Simon James told Jef­


fries because he kept on committing offences the courts had no option but to impose greater and


' greater sentences. The judge said Jeffries might come to his senses


a t some point, although it was difficult to see it looking at his record. He went on; “Everything has been tried with you.

The Youth Offending Team bend over backwards to say positive things about people that come before them, but they are saying there is no other option but a custodial sentence.” . The judge added that he anticipated the defen­


dant was used to custody and it would be “water off a duck’s back”. He said he did not consider Jeffries dangerous, but


he took a particularly serious view of the breaching of the ASBO. Recorder James added: “It seems to me you think you can carry on breaking it with impunity and nothing will happen.”


. Jeffries had earlier admitted robbery and breach­


ing the ASBO.. "• Mr Stephen Johnson (prosecuting) told the court


was due to expire next month. He was banned from causing harassment, alarm or distress to others, but had broken the order on “many, many occasions”. Last November, two 17-years-olds were sitting in


a car eating chips. They were planning to go to the swimming baths, but were approached by Jeffries and Jonathan Clark (22), ’who had been walking from Blackburn Railway Station. Clark, who had the most to say, asked if he could


borrow some money for the train. The victim said ■ he had no money and Clark insisted he had as he had seen him go to the chip shop. Clark told the vic­ tim if he did not hand over his money he would be stabbed. There was no evidence he had a weapon. Mr Johnson said after threats and intimidation


both young men handed over their cash. Clark then reached into the vehicle, took the keys from the igni­ tion and demanded the teenagers take him to Clitheroe. He made threats and one of the 17-year- ^ olds allowed them to get in the back. On the way they picked up a young girl friend of


the defendants and during the course of the journey the defendants continued to threaten and intimi­ date both victims. Again Clark did most of the talk­ ing and claimed he had a knife. The prosecutor said when the vehicle approached


Tesco in Clitheroe, the two defendants got out and thanked the victims for the lift. Jeffries was later identified by the girl. ■When he was interviewed, he made no comment


to all questions. Clark earlier received 18 months in jail. Jeffries had 72 previous convictions, including seven offences against other peopled Mr Dennis 'Watson (defending) said Jeffries’ pre­

A MINISTER will celebrate 50 years’ service by returning to the Clitheroe church where he was ordained in 1958. The Rev. Alan Gaunt will lead morning


service a t Clitheroe United Reformed Church on Sunday, beginning at 10-30 a.m. He was minister at the church from 1958 to 1965.


Minister returns to Valley for golden date ■The church records show that he came


to Clitheroe and Barrow from the Lan­ cashire Independent College as a “stand- in” supply for another student who was unable to fulfil his appointment. Now retired, he lives on the Wirral, but as a popular hymn writer his hymns are often sung at churches throughout the country.
