This is the mugshot of a killer who took his friend’s life with a single punch. Paul Brierley, 44, punched dad-of-four Paul Ologbose, 57, also known as ‘Bushy’, during a night out after finding out he had a fling with his ex-girlfriend.
The pair had both been drinking at the Higher Fold Sports and Social Club in Leigh when Brierley got into a confrontation with another friend after he called his son a ‘girl’ for crying, which resulted in him punching him.
His friend went to leave, but Brierley caught up with him and said that he should have told him about ‘Bushy’ and his ex, to which his friend replied: “You have known about this for months, it’s finished now”, prosecutor Henry Blackshaw said.
