Darwen man attacked nurses in A&E

8:55am Wednesday 19th September 2012 in News

A 21-YEAR-OLD man who attacked two nurses while in a hyperglycomic state was told he was ‘very lucky’ not to be going to prison.

Blackburn magistrates heard Trudi Lowe was removing a cannula from Sean Bradley’s arm when he suddenly lunged at her and grabbed her by the throat.

Another nurse, alerted by her colleague’s screams, came to help and she was also attacked during the incident at Royal Blackburn Hospital .

Bradley, of Templeton Close, Darwen, admitted assaulting Trudi Lowe and Donna Peers-Holland. He was made subject to community supervision for 12 months and ordered to pay £100 compensation to each of his victims and £50 costs.

The chairman of the magistrates said: “This was a serious incident and you are very lucky not to be facing a custodial sentence.”

John Beggs, prosecuting, said Bradley had gone to hospital with his mother who had been unable to resolve his hyperglycaemia at home after he drank several shots and smoked £10 worth of cannabis.

Andrew Church-Taylor, defending, said that when Bradley had gone into a hyperglycomic state in the past, he had become aggressive but never to the extent that he did on the night of the incident.

Lucky not to be facing a custodial sentence. The chairman of the bench is a complete imbecile. This scumbag should have got 2 years at least. People like him are the abusers of the resources of the NHS. It sounds from his lifestyle he is a waste of space. Perhaps we should have a policy of voluntary euthanasia for wastrels like this.

Agree with most of you're comment, apart from the voluntary euthanasia, somehow dont think you will get many volunteers, now enforced euthanasia, for scum balls yes.

How could he have got two years? You can't call the chairman of the (magistrates) bench an imbecile and then come out with that comment.

Inept governments putting down an awful lot of innocent people would be the main overriding negative I'd guess.

Innocent?

The policy would only include GUILTY criminals! All GUILTY criminals would face the death penalty.

If your ok with criminals living then I'd take it you'd be against recycling of the parts?

Go on then, here is some troll food. Are you stupid enough to think every found guilty criminal is guilty? seriously dumb, naive etc if so.
Now if you want a daft justice system then feel free to go and live elsewhere. You would kill people who look after their property or those guilty for saying feck off or spitting on floor, lettering. life then has no value you tool.

In the manufacturing process you always must have a scrap allowance. And who goes to prison for swearing or spitting? Although both are nasty

A bench chairman sentencing to two years would be an even greater imbecile on the grounds that he cannot send down for more than six months for one offence, or twelve or more than one. Them's the rules.

If you want to kill offenders then emigrate to Saudi Arabia. Britain is a civilisation built on the rule of law. I am more afraid of sociopaths calling for state-sponsored 'euthanasia' than unemployed pot smokers.
