A thug who knocked a grandad over with an elbow to the face was banished from his trial due to his "absolutely disgraceful" conduct in court.
James Tully, 38, was sentenced at Liverpool Crown Court on Friday (June 9). He was convicted of assault resulting in actual bodily harm in a trial this week.
Tully had knocked a grandad to the floor with an elbow to the face in Newsham Park on May 1, 2022. The man had taken his granddaughter fishing at the park's lake and was approached by a drunk Tully who thought they had shouted at him.
