A £60million label manufacturing boss walked free from jail for a brutal attack because "his workers would lose their jobs" if he was sent down.
Dad Peter Scanlon, 52, attacked his victim, who used to be his friend, from behind and repeatedly stamped on him while he lay helpless on the pavement, leaving him with a fractured elbow.
Scanlon, described as a "gentle and loving" dad and step-dad-of-three, kicked the man in the head and walked off, leaving his victim unconscious in an assault described by a judge as "eight seconds of complete madness".
