Sha Bu Le Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 A 25 year man has been arrested and will appear in court today charged with the attack and attempted robbery of Alan Barnes the 67 year old disabled pensioner also from Gateshead. Wonder how hard the courts will slap his wrist. Should be given at least 5 years jail time, doubt it will happen though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suffolkngood Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Let's hope it's trial by media ............ This has had a lot of media coverage so the judge is unlikely to go too easy on him one would hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the jail time would be the safest option for him now that he's been named Edited February 10, 2015 by Deker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TIGHTCHOKE Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Great news that they have arrested someone, I do hope it's the right man! It would be good to think he will have a very hard time in jail if convicted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
