Plenty of them come into my shop and seem to be doing OK. Ask one to do something for you and see how they charge!

It appears it's being taken quite seriously and It's now going to Maidstone Crown court although statistically he'll be more likely to get a not guilty there than at mags http://www.sevenoakschronicle.co.uk/...ail/story.html

According to the report on the Daily Mirror, the judge drew comparison to the boat race incident (which drew a 6 month jail sentence) and observed that Trent Oldfield had been making a protest but in this case there was a differnt motive.
I don't think the judge is likely to see the "different motice" as providing any mitigation. |

I've posted this on Facebook and been slated for some reason but here goes anyway. This is in response to someone saying giving him a criminal record is not the way to go.

What is the way to go then?
As you say, probably got some in the bag already, so bin him. |

This is a satisfactory outcome (in my view!) and goes some way to restoring my faith in the justice system.

Impressed with that judgement....surprised, but impressed. It appears his lack of real contrition in the pre-sentence interviews didn't do him any favours....Good!

A good result, now the judicial system should wake up and give out longer sentences for other crimes that cause aggravation instead of a slap on the wrist.

Good news indeed. I don't envy the idiot's poor lawyer, though. "..lacks maturity and is easily led" - by himself...
"Best mitigation is his very early guilty plea..." Yes, good on him for owning up to doing something which was filmed from several angles, one two feet behind him. Such contrition! I'd have given him eight months for the facebook group alone, never mind the actual crime. |

Definate surprise there, I was expecting a slap on the wrist, but he deserves every moment of that 8 months.
I hope his pad buddy, and all his neighbours are doing all they can to help him settle in |
