Tez Burns and Peter Lay were found guilty of criminal damage and Charles Laurie was found guilty of possession of a hammer with intent to damage property, at their trial in August 2025. Along with 5 others on trial that day they were also acquitted of public nuisance.
Feels like a somewhat misleading title given multiple were found guilty of criminal damage. They received a suspended sentence, which was always likely to be the result (or a large fine). Them being imprisoned wasn’t going to happen.
