Old Bailey Tuesday 8th, March: A Woolwich Crown Court judge, HHJDouglas Marks Moore, rugby tackled a sex offender to the ground as he ran out of the judge's door. He successfully prevented the defendant Paul Reid from escaping from court after Reid was giving evidence from the witness box during his trial. Two years ago this defendant successfully escaped from another court.
Andrew Parker of M23LAW has also had a client who smashed through the supposedly unbreakable glass around the dock in the soon to be defunct Sutton Magistrates Court in Surrey. A few days later, Andrew persuaded the client to give himself up. He received a year in custody, which is usually the sentencing norm for this offence depending on the circumstances.
