More Contempt For The Justice System…

Nicholas Brain, 20, was unanimously found guilty of the offence at Oxford Crown Court on Friday.

Following a trial, jurors decided he had robbed Sophie Beck of a mobile phone in Blackbird Leys on February 24.

But after the verdict was read out, Brain’s supporters in the public gallery shouted as they left the court.
Ooooh, that’s a dangerous thing to do in some courts!
In a foul-mouthed rant, one woman asked jurors how they could sleep at night.
I’d have been tempted to shout back ‘Not in a prison cell, darlin’, that’s how!’…
After the jury left court, prosecutor Joanne Sear said the incident was a contempt of court and invited Recorder Richard Jones to take action.
Ooooh, wait for the swift hammer of justice to desce…

Oh. Wait.
He replied: “I didn’t feel particularly insulted. It wasn’t pleasant but I’m sure many of them (the jurors) lead more sheltered lives than me and you who work here. It was an unpleasant, angry outburst, but I think making any more fuss will be more trouble than it’s worth.

“I think those jurors know what goes on in some parts of the world. I don’t think I’m going to say any more.”
WTFF…? What does any of that actually mean?

Can I get an English translation?

    English Translation:

    "The comments made by those obnoxious people rather unnerved me and I'm afraid to make an example of them, in case they should become even more abusive and possibly violent .. so we'll permit them to get away with it" ..

    "Mind you, it would be an entirely different matter if the person were an elderly Royal Navy veteran of the Arctic Convoys, we'd have no compunction whatsoever in showing him just who's boss" ..

    I don't have to live amongst scum like that so I can't be bothered to deal with it. You lot live amongst them...you know what they're like... so you can't be too traumatised, can you. ?

    When it affects me or mine in any way I might do something about it but not until.

    My pleasure ;)

    "..."Mind you, it would be an entirely different matter if the person were an elderly Royal Navy veteran of the Arctic Convoys..."

    Oh, indeed!

    "When it affects me or mine in any way I might do something about it but not until."

    Ooooh, I'm going to hell for sure for what I regularly wish upon magistrates...
