A young woman from Brislington has been found guilty of riot after the Kill the Bill protest in Bristol last year.
Charly Pitman, 24, appeared in Bristol Crown Court on Thursday, April 28 following a three-day trial. Today she became the third person to be found guilty of riot, bringing the total number of people held responsible for offences committed on March 21 last year to 18.
Jurors took just over an hour to convict her of the offence. Ten other people have previously admitted riot while five others have either been convicted of or admitted other offences committed after violence erupted outside Bridewell Police Station last year.
