Sycamore Gap tree at Hadrian's Wall 'felled overnight'

[Mercenary Keyboard Warrior]

Hadrians Wall, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Let alone the tree. If it was upto me id give them the full prison term, but we probably dont have the prison space so....

Simple

Setup a couple of fake social media accounts criticising Trump

Write MS13 on their forehead in sharpie.

Send them on a flight to the US.

Boom they go to jail in El Salv, gets rid of them and its almost free

Looks like they thought they could get away with it by filming the act on a literal potato

I'm sycamore idiot's on the streets. Send them down the pair of planks!

It was an iphone, 13 i believe, it was filmed at night when its dark
That is image enhanced, the original video is basically black with sound

probably a lesson there for people uploading photos with inadvertent meta-data onto the web ( and tagged web-links )

Absolute comedy gold some of the testimony one of the scrotes is giving in this trial. If there isn't a Wagatha Christie trial style comedy drama made out of this I will be most disappointed. I'd have Peter Kay down to play Chambers, the guy currently being quizzed, for start. McKenzie Crook for the other guy. And Robert Pattison as the tree in flashback scene.

He's not coming across well is he. I suspect this pair will go down in history as absolute morons.

It’s hilarious watching them both blame the other, I do think the total waste of court time should be factored into sentencing the planks are so obviously guilty the jury will take about 10 seconds to reach a verdict!

The amazing defence cases continue. One guy thought it was “just a tree”.

Sycamore Gap accused thought it was 'just a tree', court hears

Adam Carruthers says he did not fell the tree and was surprised at the global outrage.

Edit - more details:

Two men guilty of felling world-famous Sycamore Gap tree

Daniel Graham, 39, and Adam Carruthers, 32, both from Cumbria, are each convicted of two counts of criminal damage.

www.bbc.co.uk

Edit 2 - Carruthers says he got the video “by mistake” despite the video only ever being on his and his co-defendant’s phones.

I surprised they could find any peers to try them by.

To be fair, it's probably the only honest thing they've said

 

[a1ex2001]

It’s like a carry on movie, I know they are entitled to a defence but the lawyers conducting it should be ashamed of themselves for allowing this nonsense to go on.

 

[Stu999]

The judge is supposed to give instructions to the jury tomorrow before they deliberate. So these clowns will probably be found guilty by 10:30am.

Deep movie trailer voice:

"One dark night two men went out in search of wood. And ended up receiving more than they ever dreamed possible. Sycamore Gap, a tale of big choppers and sexual awakening at His Majesties Pleasure. Rated PG."

“Rated ‘R’ for ‘Retarded’”

If I'm forced to drag myself to jury duty, I want a case like this. At least I can have a laugh.

And the verdict is easy! I always dread getting called up and being given a really tricky case that was hard to call, sending these muppets down would be a pleasure.

Could even drag it out for a while for extra comedy.

is the last laugh on the audience paying for the defence team. ( USA audience will lap up the upcoming Disney mini-series - like Menezes one, all things Brit ]
