I wrote a few weeks ago about the case of a woman, Keisha Wall,\u00a0who read a text message on her mobile phone shortly before ramming into a pedestrian and killing her (here<\/a>, here<\/a>, and here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

This article in the Daily Mail<\/a> reports that she has been jailed.<\/p>\n

She arrived at court holding a mobile phone! <\/strong>She’s been jailed for 2\u00bd years.<\/p>\n

As reported previously – and repeated in the article here – she was sitting next to her mother, Constance Wall,\u00a0who is a driving instructor. Let’s hope that “is” soon becomes “was”, because her mother did not at any time appear to tell the truth during the case (I base that comment on the decision made by the jury).<\/span> I’ll correct that, because I just saw a more detailed account. There’s something weird going on, because her mother wasn’t called on to give evidence. I don’t know about you, but I’d say that the person sitting right next to the accused at the time of the\u00a0then-alleged crime (i.e. the passenger) would be\u00a0a bloody good first choice witness!<\/p>\n

Wall’s defence said:<\/p>\n

She will have to live with the circumstances of that very short episode for the rest of her life.<\/p>\n

She is extremely sorry and remorseful for what has happened. That remorse is deep felt, genuine and long-lasting. She is law abiding and supportive of her younger siblings.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

No she isn’t. She’s a filthy liar who killed someone. She lied in court, which hardly makes her “law abiding”, and being “remorseful” didn’t stop her from lying, did it?<\/p>\n

Still, she’ll be out in little more than a year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
