A drunk driver named as James Forrester aged 33, who viciously assaulted a lone traffic cop who dared to pull him over for driving whilst under the influence was jailed today for 3 years and 8 months.

The drunken yob was pulled over by the policeman while driving a Ford Focus in Manchester at 12.30am with no lights, a flat tyre and a smashed wing mirror.

Forrester had got out of his car and agreed to get into the back of the patrol car, but once inside refused to give a breath test. He then put his feet up on the centre console and was told by the officer to ‘Take Your feet off that. That’s disrespectful.’

Forrester snapped and punched the officer in the face and leaning forward bit him on the cheek, before landing further punches.

The policeman managed to get out of the patrol car but Forrester climbed into the front of the vehicle and followed him out to continue his furious assault.

He attacked the officer on the pavement behind the car and then chased him into the road where he knocked him down and continued to punch him in the head. The assault was only stopped when four passers by decided to intervene.

The attack was recorded on CCTV cameras in the street and can be seen clearly in the following footage.

Forrester was found to be two and half times over the legal drink drive limit and was banned from driving for five years and will have to retake his driving test as well as landing himself in prison for a paltry period.

The British couple, dubbed the ‘Canoe Couple’  who hatched an elaborate plan to fake the husbands death in order to claim a sizeable life insurance sum will be freed from their prison sentences this week to continue their lives.

The husband John Darwin is already free and living on benefits in Co.Durham, while wife Ann will leave prison in a couple of weeks.

But the Daily Mail reports that British authorities charged with reclaiming the couples assets in order to repay the insurance company, have recovered just £157,000 of the estimated £680,000 paid out in insurance and pension benefits.

The three year search for assets has been stymied by banking laws in Panama, the city that they chose to start a new life with their ill gotten gains. It has also found that a mystery company was set up by the Darwin’s in a bid to avoid much of the money being traced.

The couple were obviously attracted to Panama not just for its climate, but moreover for its popularity as one of the worlds most popular tax havens where foreigners with big bank balances can deposit their cash safely and secretly with absolute anonymity.

Abiding by their own set of rules the authorities in Panama have offered little if any help in securing the assets of the Darwins and the British CPS has already failed in a bid to confiscate a plot of land bought by the Darwins and now worth around £232,000.

They have also failed in their attempts at confiscating the couples apartment home in El Dorado which has a value in excess of £62,000.

And they have had absolutely no luck with the Panama branch of HSBC, where the couple allegedly have a sum £144,000 across three separate accounts.

It seems that no legal action by Britain can begin to retreive the money or assets in Panama if there are no Panamanian victims.

The detective who led the initial inquiry into the Darwin’s double life has suggested that no-one will ever know exactly how much money or property the couple have in Panama and adds that if the British authorities are unable to retrieve the assets before the Darwin’s are released, they could easily get their thieving hands on it again.

It appears that a private education  has no bearing on the outcome of some pupils, already convicted for her ‘drunken and loutish behaviour’ at just 15 years old when she spat at and then threatened to stab a bus driver, the evil Ruby Thomas was finally sentenced for her part in the killing of an innocent 62 year old gay man in Trafalgar Square  in September 2009.

Thomas was convicted of manslaughter and sentenced to a paltry seven years in prison by a judge at the Old Bailey this week, but considering the time that she has already spent in custody she is likely to be free again within 3 years.

When sentencing killer Thomas and her two thuggish friends, Judge Richard Hawkins said:

“This is a case of mindless drink fuelled violence committed in public, in front of many people, with consequences which were catastrophic for Ian Baynham and his family and friends. A precious life has been lost and no sentence I can pass will affect that.”

CCTV evidence that has previously been shown on TV showed the killers entering a lift where Thomas giggled and danced while accomplice Rachel Burke  adjusted her make up.

In mitigation the court had heard how Thomas’ father had been convicted of manslaughter himself in 2003, after stabbing a taxi driver.

Her mother said that Thomas’s childhood had been characterised by abuse and hardship at the hands of her violent and alcoholic father.

This style of attack on our streets is becoming all too familiar and it is doubtful that a short prison sentence will have any effect on these violent drunken thugs. They are after all getting away with murder and deserve to be locked away for life.

andy gray sacked by sky

A whole case involving sexism against Andy Gray has been drawn up in the days since SKY football pundit muttered the immortal exchange of words with commentator Richard Keys prior to the Premier League game between Wolves and Liverpool on Saturday.

Gray and Keys were subjected to an official warning over the incident involving female linesperson Sian Massey prior to the Wolves v Liverpool match, when the pair believing they were off air and made disparaging comments about whether the female understood the offside rule.

It is the type of banter that you would hear in many a workplace, home or pub up and down the country, a couple of old mates having a bit of a laugh with no disrespect meant.

In this day and age of course it is considered sexist to make such remarks, something that we should all be aware off, particularly if our job involves dealing with the public.

Since issuing the warning, SKY have managed to come up with a complete dossier of ’sexist offences’ committed by the former footballer, all involving video taped evidence. The broadcaster had no alternative than to relieve Gray of his reputed £1,7million per year job.

As you would expect, the tabloids are having a field day with the story, dragging up stories about Gray’s love life and drunken antics.

Gray is currently embroiled in a legal battle with the News Of The World over alleged phone hacking, the case involves both himself and comedian Steve Coogan. Both men are pursuing Glen Mulcaire, the private detective at the centre of the case, to name the people at News Of The World who allegedly hacked into their voicemail and to whom they passed the information.
