The man who snatched actress Kirsten Dunst”s purse has been sentenced to four years behind bars.

Convicted Brooklyn shoplifter, gun toter and car thief James Jimenez swiped a 2,000 dollar Balenciaga purse from the ‘Spiderman’ beauty after sneaking into a 2007 movie shoot at the Soho Grand hotel.

Although the Manhattan DA”s office had argued for the maximum sentence of seven years, but the judge only gave him four.

He could have faced a minimum of 3 and a half years in prison.

“I don”t understand the charges. I don”t understand why I”m being charged,” the New York Post quoted Jimenez, 36, as telling the judge.

But Manhattan Supreme Court Judge Jill Konviser replied: “I understand, because I presided over this trial and I”m familiar with all the evidence.”
