A university student who went on a bizarre rampage attacking medical staff and a police officer has walked free from court - after a judge heard that her drink was spiked.
It was accepted that Catherine McSorley, known as Louise, had her pint of beer spiked while she innocently left it unattended in a pub. Three emergency workers were injured by her out of control behaviour.
Miss McSorley was also injured as she jumped out of the first floor window of her home in Liverpool city centre as she believed someone was trying to kill her. Miss McSorley, now 20, was due to face trial today at the city’s crown court but the prosecution offered no evidence. The judge recorded a not guilty verdict and she was discharged from the dock.
