...He was done for both...
In that case, it might be worth trying to get both offences listed at the same time before the same magistrate.
Plead guilty to both and mitigate on the basis it was almost the same offence.
I don't say you'd get 'two for the price of one', but I think you might be able to negotiate an overall penalty that was lower than if the offences were dealt with separately.
The OP has no such option because the offences were carried out in different counties.
