A violent thug could have easily killed his own stepson after repeatedly punching him and then bashing his head on the kerb in a "relentless and very vicious" assault.
An aggressive and "enraged" Sean Ross, 38, boasted to his victim: "You're not the big man now, are you?" during the attack on June 25 last year.
The brute later told police : "He can go f***ing die, I don't care. If he does, let us know."
