A repeat offender has been sent back to jail for 14 days after failing to comply with her post-sentence supervision after she was released from prison.
Chesterfield magistrates’ court heard on Wednesday, August 30, how Jessica Hodgkinson, 33, of Talbot Crescent, Hasland, Chesterfield, had just been released from prison for committing a shop theft and for a previous breach.
Defence solicitor John Wilford said Hodgkinson has been going through a difficult time with mental health issues but accepts responsibility for not attending appointments.
