A heavy-drinking bully who hurled spiteful abuse at his own mum, threw a table at her and damaged walls on her home during a ill-tempered argument has been branded a “spoilt, pathetic brat”.
Tree surgeon Karl Robson boldly ignored a two-year suspended jail sentence that he had been given just a few weeks earlier for a violent attack on his former lover when he headbutted, strangled and kicked her.
However, he managed to convince a second judge not to jail him after talking his way out of trouble and complaining that being stuck in prison was a “horrible place to be”.
