806 - AWAIT

The would-be diAmond Thief (see 804 - SPACE) thought he had got away with his latest, albeit unsuccessful, attempt. But then there was a knock at the door and the police arrested him. He had left a stack of clues behind him. It didn't help that when arresting him the police spotted his stash of stolen goods from previous thefts and detailed plans for the diamond robbery. The place was uncared for and stank of uncleaned tinned fish cans. Everywhere they looked there was a stain from something or other. He seemed more interested in thieving than in making his home pleasant. Although he pleaded 'not guilty', the jury took only 30 minutes to decide his guilt. Much to the jury's relief, his previous sentences were read out after they'd made their decision. He sat in the court cell to await his sentence.
