> A 27-year-old man is facing a prison term after urinating on a disabled woman who lay dying in the street.

"A Hartlepool man is facing jail after he urinated on a disabled woman who lay dying in the street.

The 27-year-old shouted “this is YouTube material” as he degraded Christine Lakinski, 50, who had fallen ill, magistrates heard."

The motherfucking piece of shit excuse for a human found a dying woman and pissed on her, poured a bucket of water over her and covered her in shaving foam as she lay dying of pancreatic failure.

Well you fucking shiteating piece of shit I hope you rot in hell for all eternity and if there isn’t a hell I hope the rest of your life is a living hell, I hope you get a good long prison sentence, hopefully cohabiting with someone who likes making youtube material out of your ass you fuckpig.

Given the usual performance of the British justice system, he’ll probably get time served plus a polite letter warning him not to do that again, in which case they’ll send a far more sternly worded letter.

Today in the Giant, an old lady collapsed in front of Ginger and I(seriously).

Things we did not do:

[ul]Pour water on her

Piss on her

Cover her with shaving cream

Attempt to get someone to videotape us to post on YouTube[/ul]  
Things we did do:

[ul]Help her to a chair

Call 911

Steady her on the chair when she passed out again

Sooth her head with a bag of frozen corn

Assisted the paramedics as best we could by giving them all the information we had on what had occurred

Wish her well as she was taken away for treatment[/ul]

Asshat.

[QUOTE=BBC]  
Lynne Dalton, prosecuting, said: “Although his actions did not contribute to her death it was appalling behaviour that robbed her of any dignity in the last hours of her life.”  
[/QUOTE]

She really nailed it there. The woman lay dying, and her last few moments on earth were spent being pissed on, treated as if her life had no value whatsoever. I wonder what that must have felt like. I hope to god she was unconscious.

I hope they put that asshole away for a long time. Is there any crime he can be charged with, besides public indecency? It feels like there has to be some charge for refusing to help someone in a medical emergency. This is beyond public indecency… it’s inhuman.

Maybe a charge of failure to render aid for his asshole antics instead of at least trying to call an ambulance for her?

Hunter S. Thompson, in his Hell’s Angels book, tells of one of the Angels customs. The first one to pass out at a party is pissed on by everyone else. The difference is that they’re pissing on someone they know and love. The Hell’s Angels have the decency to avoid pissing on dying strangers.

Yeah, but they’re all drunk bikers. That’s probably enough piss to drown in.

Is it wrong to say that I’m at least thankful that he isn’t an American? Sometimes it feels like exploring the depths of humanity is our specialty.

Exploring? Hell, I feel as if our specialty is drilling those depths a little deeper on a seemingly weekly basis. ☹

I once had an opium joint, once a magic mushroom one, and I know someone else who had one with PCP in it. But these days a cannabis joint is a dangerous thing! Well, it is with skunk in it, in my experience - ghastly business.

That said, it none of the above turn you into a fucking bastard who should, indeed, be punished to the full extent of the law. Which makes me glad of the existence of the presumably Victorian statute of “outraging public decency”.

The RO, I’m loving it!

“Breach of the Peace” is sometimes used as a catch-all to convict someone who, frankly, has acted like a total cock. I think that pissing on a dying person would comfortably fit into that.
