Thug who turned up to court drunk after Manchester Airport brawl bursts into tears in the dock

A thug who turned up to court intoxicated was left in tears after he and his fellow attacker narrowly avoided prison for an alcohol induced brawl at Manchester Airport.

After the victim was floored when backing away from the pair, Roof kicked and stomped the victim 12 times while Robson simultaneously struck him with 16 punches to the head, the court was told. He was left with multiple bruises to the head. “Officer Harrison noticed Mr Robson had blood and cuts on his knuckles,” the prosecution said. “Roof was seen kicking and stomping on the head.

Mitigating on behalf of Robson, Alistair Reid said the reason his client turned up to court drunk on Friday afternoon was because he was “utterly terrified at the prospect of custody”. He told the court that before today Robson had been complying with the probation and showing progress refraining from alcohol.

Mr Reid said that Robson wants to be a role model for his young son. Explaining why, a bleary eyed Robson told the court: “I’m sorry, and sorry to my son as well”.
