An Edinburgh woman who tore out the hair of a love rival in a nightclub attack has been warned she faces 18 months in jail.
Dee Flynn seized the victim by the hair in the Shanghai venue in Edinburgh’s George Street and pulled her to the ground. The 27-year-old punched Emily Sarpietro in the head during the assault before being escorted from the dance floor by door staff and ejected.
Emily had approached a man they had both dated in the club, a court heard. Now a sheriff has told Flynn she was in the “last chance saloon” for “thumbing her nose at the court”.
