A drunken former soldier who urinated on a disabled neighbour as she lay
dying after a fall in the street was jailed for three years yesterday and
told that he and his friends had shamed a town. Anthony Anderson, 27, and a
group of friends who filmed the humiliation of Christine Lakinski on a
mobile phone, have been cold-shouldered in Hartlepool and turned away from
shops and neighbours' homes.

They were castigated by a judge and police at a brief court hearing which
was told that their "almost unbelievable" behaviour had turned the lesson of
the Good Samaritan on its head. Ms Lakinski, a 50-year-old bent by a spine
deformity and bullied for most of her life, had also been covered in shaving
foam and kicked to "make her wake up".

During the episode in July, which lasted almost half an hour, none of the
group called an ambulance to help Ms Lakinski, who had collapsed while
carrying shopping home and hit her head. Only 20 minutes later, when
Anderson, the phone-filmer Simon Whitehead and several others had dressed to
go out to a nightclub, was a 999 call finally made. Paramedics were unable
to revive Ms Lakinski, but the call enabled police to trace one of the
group, Scott Clement, which led to Anderson's arrest at a local club within
hours.

He admitted outraging public decency and apologised through his barrister at
Teesside crown court for actions which he said he still could not explain.

The court heard that Ms Lakinski lived opposite a house in Raby Road which
Anderson shared with another man, who had been smoking cannabis and drinking
heavily with him all afternoon. Anderson went out in shorts with a towel
round his waist when he saw Ms Lakinski slumped on the pavement.

Sue Jacobs, prosecuting, said Anderson first kicked the helpless woman and
when she groaned but failed to move or open her eyes, fetched a bowl of
water and threw it over her. "Apparently urged on by the fact that Scott
Clement and Simon Whitehead found this amusing, you then stated that you
were going to urinate on her. Simon Whitehead cleared space on his mobile
and recorded Anderson urinating all over Christine's body." One of the group
shouted: 'This is YouTube material.'"

Judge Peter Fox, the recorder of Middlesbrough, told Anderson he had plumbed
the depths of degradation and brought shame on the people of Hartlepool. He
said: "This court can do nothing to repair what you did, only pass a
sentence that is right in all the circumstances - three years imprisonment. "

Anderson, unemployed after brief army service, has previous convictions for
illegally importing cigarettes, obstructing a police officer and driving
offences.

Ken,

It's worth a shot, but good luck getting insurance to cover it, as it's
still listed as "experimental."  I thought about your arms when Janet's doc
first mentioned this.
