A young mother has been jailed for four years for savagely biting a chunk off a woman’s ear in a row over…Oh, this’ll be great! It always is, when the term ‘young mother’ plays a part…
… the choice of music at a pub disco*speechless*
And where did she get the impression that this sort of overreaction was acceptable?
Why, from the usual place, of course:
Prosecutor Andrew Kershaw said Blackburn had a conviction for battery and a reprimand for assault occasioning actual bodily harm.A reprimand..!? It’s a wonder they didn’t make her write out 100 times ‘I must not commit assault’, isn’t it?
In mitigation, Blackburn’s barrister, Tina Landale, said it was a spontaneous assault in drink and her client was shocked by the consequences.Well, yes. She probably expected to get let off. Again.
That's a nasty assault where I would expect to have a lot of sympathy for the victim.
