A man known as "Beefy," whose real name is Keith Rogers, has been sentenced to 27 months in prison after a series of violent incidents. His crime spree lasted four months and included threats and assaults. This was triggered by a personal crisis when Rogers found his partner cheating on him. Rogers began his rampage at a pub in Liverpool, where he caused damage with a golf club and threatened the manager. After being removed by staff, he was found hiding in a nearby garden by the police. While in custody, he made threats against the officers, saying he would harm them and their families. While out on bail, he continued to shoplift and became aggressive when confronted. Rogers was seen stealing items from several stores, including alcohol, baby formula, and chocolate. He often threatened violence when being caught. On one occasion, he brandished a knife at a store worker when confronted about his theft. Rogers also threatened police officers and made violent remarks during his arrest. His defense attorney noted that Rogers had faced personal hardships, including previous injuries and struggles with mental health and substance abuse. However, the court emphasized that his behavior posed a danger to the community. In sentencing, Judge Robert Trevor-Jones criticized Rogers' actions, linking them to his drinking and drug use. Rogers was also given a two-year order that restricts him from entering certain places and contacting specific individuals upon his release.
