Yesterday saw me up at 4.30am for a trip back to Portsmouth to appear at the Magistrates Court as a witness from when I got beaten up back in August.
Having got there in time, sat in the witness area we waited for the Proecution Lawyer to tell us what to expect.
Having read my statement with the other member of staff who also gave a statement we then had to wait while the lawyer sorted out what time the trial would begin.
Well, the trial didn't start. The muppet decided that he would change his plea to guilty, thus rendering my visit pointless. Or rather, if I hadn't turned up he might have got off. So now I have to wait 3 weeks for his sentence to be passed.
From what I can gather, the CCTV footage showed him kicking me whilst I was on the floor and because of this, there is a possiblity of him being sent to prison.
Don't you love the law?
