Golly - now he's trying to rape toddlers ! Who'd have thought it ?
What about the man who stabbed someone five times in the stomach - then jumped bail ?
He went on the run for nine months before he was re-arrested and sentenced at Leeds Crown Court to 100 hours' community work and two years' probation.You amaze me.
The sentence did little to change his behaviour.
He then stole his sister's jewellery and spent the money on lager.
Magistrates deferred sentencing him for six months to give him a chance to stay out of trouble.
He was made the subject of a 50-hour community service order when he re-appeared at the same court in February last year and was ordered to pay the jeweller £25 compensation with £50 costs.
Keith Haggerty, his solicitor, told the court Hobson was attempting to turn his life around.
He said: "He knew taking his sister's rings was a terrible thing to do and he is glad they have been returned to her. He has an alcohol problem and needed the money to buy drink.
"He has been battling against his addiction and has managed to cut his drinking down."
Oh, drat ! Five months later he's only gone and killed four people !
UPDATE - and sit down before you read this.
