MC/CRIM/03/24 R v Coban Eriksen (Sentencing)

Mr Eriksen was found guilty of one count of Burglary on 25 September 2024. The Court applied the Domestic Burglary guidelines from England and Wales and the Falkland Islands Overarching Sentencing Guidelines. The court found that the offending fell within the CULPABILITY B category range as the defendant targeted a vulnerable victim; there was planning that went beyond ‘some’ planning, but not regarded as significant planning; and the defendant’s mental health was such that it had an impact on his ability to fully understand the consequences of his actions or to limit impulsivity or exercise self control. The court found CATEGORY 2 HARM as the victim suffered a substantial emotional impact; and there was no damage and limited disturbance to the property. The starting point for a CATEGORY 2B offence is 18 months custody with a category range of 6 months to 3 years custody. The court considered these aggravating factors: offence committed at night; and previous conviction for burglary of a dwelling but which is almost 10 years old. In mitigation, court considered remorse demonstrated by defendant’s letter; and his mental health challenges. Imposed 22 months immediate custody. No orders for compensation or costs made. Sexual Harm Prevention Order made to prohibit the defendant from entering the grounds of a private dwelling (including driveways, gardens and surrounding land) without the express permission of the occupier. SHPO made for 10 years and to be supervised by RFIP. Defendant subject to notification requirements for 10 years.
