IT is beyond belief that 21-year-old Bournemouth estate agent Yasmin Thomas, who smashed a glass into a man’s face at the BarSo nightclub, should have been spared from jail – despite having no less than 17 previous convictions for assault (Daily Echo, August 12).
This is especially so when the judge at Bournemouth Crown Court told her: “You have a breathtaking record of violence – one of the worst I have ever seen from anyone your age”.
I can’t help wondering just what Thomas would have to do to warrant Judge John Harrow deeming a prison term appropriate!
