Looks like he'll be putting his feet up in no time. Probably.

The double-amputee shot to fame...

Not the best turn of phrase, BBC. *facepalm*

MooMoo444 · 15 Oct 2015 at 15:48

..but it's true. He is arguably more famous for the shooting than his athletics career at this point.

Finally justice.

modo77 · 3 Dec 2015 at 08:43

Ruling has been changed to Murder. Sentence not set yet, but it has a 15 year minimum (less the year he has served).

Moothead2 · 3 Dec 2015 at 08:51

Beautiful. Will wipe that smile off his face that he had the other week.

Jono8 · 3 Dec 2015 at 08:56

Thank god for that. It was ridiculous that he got away with this.

He'll be coming out of prison in about 20 years with an ass like a vintage golf bag.

. Nobody quite says it like Frankie.

Good to see justice being done, original trial was total farce. Judge should be disbarred.

+1 for vintage golf bag ahole

not surprising

the judge in the previous case was widely criticised by law professors etc... at the time for contradicting herself, applying the law incorrectly

He still gets to stay out for xmas. Apparently the sentencing courts don't re-open until January.

teenwolf · 3 Dec 2015 at 09:33

he will top himself
