My ex wife's Brother went to court for breaking into a chemists shop about 30 years ago, he was caught on the flat roof of the chemists when he realised the game was up he swallowed a huge handful of pills he had stolen, he was rushed to Portsmouth Hospital where he went through the indignity and discomfort of having his stomach pumped out.
On appearing in court the judge gave him 3 years (It was not his first offence) on being sentenced my ex bro-in-law muttered something and the judge said 'Mr P when I passed sentence you muttered something would mind please telling me and the rest of the courtroom your comment, he replied 'I didn't say anything' the judge asked him again and this time added the warning that 'if you do not answer satisfactorily Mr P I will hold you in contempt of this court, 'Mr P for the last time what were your utterances when I passed sentence upon you'? he replied in a low voice 'I will do it standing on my head' the judge asked him to speak up as the court registrar had not heard him, He again said in a louder voice that he had said 'I will do it standing on my head' The judge thank him for his honesty and said I have just increased your sentence to 39 months, that will give you three months to find your feet, take him away.
Don't you just love it when arse holes get their comeuppance.
As for the bullying twat in the report above for attacking that old lady he should be given 4 years imprisonment.
The law just sometime is an ass, not always but sometimes.
