A former student who threw eggs at the King before shouting “friends with Jimmy Savile” has walked free from court after being found guilty of threatening behaviour.Patrick Thelwell, 23, had pleaded not guilty to a Section 4 public order offence, arguing his use of “low level violence” was “lawful” as it was self defence against “the violence carried out by the British state”. On Friday, the chief magistrate, Senior District Judge Paul Goldspring, found the defendant guilty of the charge, and sentenced Thelwell to a 12-month community order with 100 hours of unpaid work.Credit: North Yorkshire Police.
