A Southmead woman said she was "horrified" that she spat at a police officer. Tameika Howell made the admission after admitting assaulting an emergency worker.
Howell, 40, a support worker of Keswick Walk, pleaded guilty to the offence after an incident outside the Criterion pub in September last year. She appeared for sentence today (March 2, 2022) at Bristol Crown Court.
Judge Michael Longman fined her £210 and ordered her to pay £250 compensation. He told her: "You have written a letter, quite a detailed letter, and it sets out the circumstances in which you behaved. Your behaviour was unpleasant, unacceptable, inexcusable and out of character." Howell declined to comment as she left court.
