A WOMAN has been jailed for a string of offences including shoplifting and possessing crack cocaine.
Amy Lee Colette Spelman, 27, of Greenhill Close, Barrow, pleaded guilty to four charges of shoplifting and one of possessing the drug when she appeared at South Cumbria Magistrates on April 25.
She was jailed for 12 weeks in total for the offences, which took place between April 19 and 24.
Magistrates were told she was caught with the class A drugs on April 24.
The items she stole included Xbox and Playstation controllers worth £98 from B&M Bargains.
She also stole household products from Home Bargains worth £20.
The court was told the defendant's previous record of offending was considered an aggravated factor when sentencing her.
