Yobs banned from going out at Christmas...following CCTV of street brawl
THREE yobs have been banned from going out over Christmas, following a mass brawl where a police dog was kicked.
The street fight broke out outside SFC takeaway, in Southchurch Road, Southend, before the dog bit one of the thugs and they were arrested.
Shocking footage was captured by CCTV operators which led to the swift arrest of Dean Bailey, Arthur Burgess and Tony Walsh.
It shows at least seven men throwing punches at about 3.40am on September, before the fight spills out into the middle of the road.
A police dog handler then arrived and restrained Walsh, who bit him on the wrist.
The police dog was kicked in the scuffle, before it bit Walsh. Bailey, 19, of Trinity Road, Southend, Burgess, 28,of Lincoln Chase, Southend, and Walsh, of Newington Avenue, Southend, appeared before Southend Magistrates Court where they all pleaded guilty to threatening behaviour. Walsh, 32, also admitted assaulting the police dog handler.
The men were all curfew between 9pm and 9am on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights until January 15, including Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve.
District Judge John Wollard said: “The order is clearly designed to keep you away from going out clubbing and getting yourself drunk late at night.”
They were all given a 12 month community order and £85 costs to pay each.
Bailey was spared unpaid work because he was the only one with no previous convictions.
Burgess, a roofer, and unemployed Walsh were both given 60 hours unpaid work.

Our prisons are already full. Plus, when they get out, they wont be able to get a job because of their record and would most likely resort to more crime. It then becomes a viscious circle with no positive end product.
Community orders. What a disgrace.but 4 years each and all the yobs will think different and sit up and say "is it worth it for 4 years" Crime would drop quickly with the correct sentencing.
I dont have the answer, but prison for everything is not the right way. Perhaps national service for example would be better..............

If a person hits you for nothing then hit back, but the photos look like a gang of bullys scum and shhite. These kind of scum need locking up, not normal people. Scum bullys these were and if u watch the film they were absolutley horrible vile trouble makers and 4 years would have been ideal .

But for those with previous convictions, letting them off hasn't worked. Build more prisons, and make the criminals work to pay for their board and lodging while inside just like the rest of the country have to pay their way.

smiffy1980 wrote:The trouble with your argument though Smiffy is that these yobs know about it. They are well aware that there is little deterrent, so carry on with their yobbish behaviour. Why are 28 and 32 year old men behaving like absolute idiots? Because there is no deterrent; no punishment. Four years seems a bit strong, but a few weeks, steadily increasing for repeat offences seems appropriate.

I don't buy in to the argument that all the prisons would be full and so what if they are. Let them be less comfortable. If it was a proper deterrent, then people would think twice about committing the offence. Capacity at prisons would then even out. We need more prisons anyway as the general population has increased,, and so there should be a increase in Her Majesty's prisons to reflect that.

crime will rise until the courts and justice systems get a brain and show them that this bully behaviour is not acceptable.
The courts jail shoplifters quicker than bullys causing trouble.

As to why is costs north of 40K pa to keep someone locked in a cell is beyond me.

Four years p*ssing rusty water out yer @rse will change their attitudes I bet.

Prison should be made so bad that anyone going there, on release would dread going back. Simple.

I was once involved in a incident like this when I was 18. It happened in Corringham town centre. There was 3 of us, and another gang of boys about 5 of them, came up to us, and said we had sex with one of their girlfriends. One of them punched my mate, and before you know it, 8 of us was fighting, punching and kicking each other. Funny enough we got the upper hand, even though they had 2 boys more. I remember us 3 just kicking this 1 boy in the head for about 10 seconds repeatedly. His other mates sortoff backed off. Thats what you get for messing with us!
