Timothy Young with offensive weapons? Surely he’s a scaffolder.
Scum – the lot of them

Here we go again, same names, similar offenses as their previous appearances and similar pathetic sentences yet again. Public menaces should be harshly dealt with, but for some reason they are not. I wonder why?
I’d like to know why too. The sentences dished out by our courts are laughable and certainly not a deterrent. We need the scum off our island.
I’d pack them off to the army. They wouldn’t be laughing then. They’d cack their pants!
Out of the 12 defendants that bothered to turn up at court , 7 got community sentences, who supervices these sentences, probation service, we all know they are supposedly over worked and anyway cannot be trusted with anything, Why do we not get them to paint the shanklin cliff lift it would save the council 170 thousand.
Yes scum the lot of them they all need to be removed from society straight away.
