Attacker dances out of courtroom

August 19, 2013 posted by Steve Brownstein

Michael Brown danced out the court’s doors, boasting: “I haven’t even got community service or anything.”

He launched the assaults while drunk at a get-together arranged by his ex, the mum of his two children, to try to get their relationship back on track.

Brown, 25, grabbed her by the hair then punched and kicked her at her home in Middlesbrough in January.

She was left with a bruised eye, head injuries and cuts.

He also attacked two friends. Brown, who pleaded guilty to the attacks, joked with pals as he left Teesside Crown Court.

He was handed a three-month sentence, suspended for a year, plus supervision and a domestic violence programme.

Rachel Dyson, defending, said: “He has been three years without offending. In his late teens and early twenties, there was a period of six years of offending. He feels he has matured significantly. He is proud of himself for keeping out of trouble for three years.

“He is disappointed with himself for marring that good run.”

Brown, of Middlesbrough, was a juvenile when he was first convicted of throwing a knife that embedded in a man’s skull.

In a later incident, he smashed a bottle into someone’s head before punching them on the ground.
