A man chatting to a woman in a pub, over estimated her age by 4 years - she glassed him, twice

Cut his face and only received a suspended sentence - WTF ?

I wonder what the sentence would have been if it had been the opposite way around ?

‘No risk to the public’

Unless you get her age wrong that is.

It’s ludicrous that you could inflict a 10cm facial scar and avoid jail time, no matter the circumstances.

The unicorn is a rough pub btw.

The usual double standards I am afraid, sadly.

It's OK, someone will be along in a minute to say she did actually get a jail sentence, it was just suspended, it's the same thing apparently!

Patents gardener is a lovely lady, she got glassed by her partner one evening at dinner. Apparently out of nowhere. He’s a right mug, gym knuckle head, like his steroids. It went to court and he got off, he claimed he couldn’t recall anything! She’s left with nerve damage and obvious scars. So it doesn’t always follow that logic of the woman always gets away with it.

Probably no more.

My Son got glassed in a pub, totally unprovoked by a stranger - had to have his ear stitched back.

The perp got a suspended sentence + a fine he'll likely never pay and then, 5 months later he knocked someone out with a punch outside a nightclub, again totally unprovoked, and got let off jail time again.

‘It may be said that some of what had been termed banter between them was rather disobliging but the defendant does not seek to excuse or explain her actions'

Hmm, not seeking to excuse but happy to point out that the comment she received was disobliging.

The headline made me think this was an instant response to what he said, but she actually had a few minutes to calm down and still did it:

‘Mr Cooper guessed the ages of the two women – but the defendant took offence at Mr Cooper’s guess.
He said the conversation then became heated and Dodd told Mr Cooper that she would glass him.
Ms Clark continued: ‘He went to the toilet to get away from the situation and the defendant and her sister proceeded to the main bar area.
‘But she caught sight of Mr Cooper as he left the toilet and immediately ran towards him, striking him twice in the face with a glass causing a laceration to the face and narrowly missing his eye.

Well, there is a "Never ask lady her age or her weight", he broke that and do what you are meant to do an blow smoke up her arse and say "Ooh late twenties, maybe thirty at a push" then express extreme surprise at the revaluation she is actually the grand old age of 39, or just make it implausible and say sixty three as can laugh at that, but the truth hurts, well not as much as it hurt him when he got the wine glass shoved in his mush.

I think someone is perhaps a bit touchy about being on the cusp of her forties and couldnt cope with someone suggesting she wasnt but a child of 39 (or younger)

So many problems occur when someones impression of themselves comes into contrast with how others maybe see them, be aware of this as not everyones self image is as they actually appear, like when someone is very overweight and wears inappropriate clothing for their body type, up to them but no need to let them know they look a sight.

She should be made to appear on ten years younger for this, after a month or two at HMP, cant glass someone and not do time.

This must be that patriarchy thing I keep hearing so much about. Must be hard facing such constant oppression.

Thats not a normal thing to do, even when drunk, bet there is more to her past than that, jabbing a wine glass in someones face is pretty special, you dont just decide to do that if you are normal. Most people would just get in a bit of a huff, be rude back or maybe wander off for a cry.

Funnily enough, just been watching a TV dramatisation on Netflix where that happens, glass to the face, was pretty shocking. Someone did it to the landlord in my local, by no means a rough area but it happened.

There is a power imbalance so the use of excessive and premeditated force is justified (I'm being ironic of course but I imagine some will seek to advance that sort of twisted explanation)
