” been arrested on suspicion of assault occasioning actual bodily harm, criminal damage and common assault on an emergency worker.” Absolute zero tolerance to this sort of crap to a Emergency Worker. I hope he gets the book thrown at him. I bet he’ll get off though because he’ll claim mental health issues at everyone else’s expense. I hope the Emergency Worker is doing OK?
these types of individuals need to be made homeless, deprived of benefits and incarcerated in an open air pen, so that they cannot escape and have to remain outside in the rain at night. Once they have broken down and cry uncontrollably, having come to terms with their awful behaviour, then perhaps they can be let out and told, you have your freedom – find yourself food and shelter and we do not expect to see you again.
Does he actually live there?
