TWO men have been jailed for their roles in the theft of a £4.75million gold toilet from Blenheim Palace.
Five thieves were involved in the raid to rip out the fully functioning 18-carat gold toilet following a glamorous party at the Oxfordshire stately home.
James Sheen, 40, a career criminal from Wellingborough, Northants, has been jailed for four years and Michael Jones, 39, from Oxford, was given a two-and-a-half-year term.
Three men have now been sentenced for their parts in the heist in September 2019.
But others remain under investigation and no trace of the toilet has ever been found, apart from gold flecks on a pair of tracksuit bottoms.
Jones was found guilty of burglary after a trial at Oxford Crown Court in March. Sheen admitted before trial to burglary, conspiracy to transfer criminal property and transferring criminal property.

Labour inaction lets inflation and shop prices spiral again
YOU MAY have heard that inflation is up. No, this isn't a rerun from last year. It really is up. Again. So much for the “fiscal discipline” and “costed plans” Rachel Reeves bleated on about when she was soliciting votes like a beggar with a tin can. The reality has come to bite: high inflation is back and it's here to stay. And it's ordinary people - working families, renters and small businesses - who are paying the price for this Government's stubborn refusal to change course.
