This came through at the weekend, but the story is now being covered in more detail<\/a> in the media. It tells how Martin Olujosun, 22, went berserk after he failed his test in Gillingham.<\/p>\n

Olujosun initially claimed to have acted in self defence (or \u201cdefense\u201d if you\u2019re a Daily Mail hack with a poor command of English). He attacked examiner, Darral Gregory, who sustained a splintered bone in his shoulder. Olujosun threatened to find out where Gregory lived and kill him.<\/p>\n

Initially, after learning that he\u2019d failed, Olujosun tried to punch his examiner in the face. A scuffle ensued, which resulted in Gregory sustaining the damaged shoulder. The initial story at the weekend also mentioned that Olujosun attempted to play the race card. His defence had clearly been reading The Big Book Of Stupid Language when offering mitigation:<\/p>\n

\n

He regrets it. If you held a gun to his head he can\u2019t tell you why, he just lost it, he\u2019d just lost his mother.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Well, obviously that makes it all right, then. Incredibly, Olujosun was not jailed, but received an 18-month suspended sentence \u2013 once again proving that UK Law is a complete ass.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
