................to jail for 2 years
Boris Becker has been jailed for two years and six months for hiding millions of pounds’ worth of assets after being made bankrupt in June 2017.

Sentencing Becker on Friday, the judge, Deborah Taylor, said: “I take into account what has been described as your ‘fall from grace’. You have lost your career and reputation and all of your property as a result of your bankruptcy.”

But she added: “You have not shown remorse, acceptance of your guilt and have sought to distance yourself from your offending and your bankruptcy. While I accept your humiliation as part of the proceedings, there has been no humility.”

Young detectives used to be given bankruptcy cases to cut their teeth on and also as part of an early exercise to ensure they could juggle high workloads. I actually think, given the scale of this case, he seems to have got off quite lightly in comparison to other sentences I have seen over the years.

I read this morning that knowing he was going to prison for his bankruptcy he spent yesterday morning at a prostitutes house then went shopping through the celeb entrance at Harrods.
