Judge's 'Gorilla' Warning To Teen




Sydney Magistrate Brian Maloney gave 19-year-old Cody Heap a stark warning about jail life in an attempt to scare the youth into good behaviour.

"You'll find big, ugly, hairy, strong men (in jail) who've got faces only a mother could love that will pay a lot of attention to you - and your anatomy," the magistrate said.

Heap appeared at the city's Downing Centre Court charged with driving without a licence, failing to stop at a police alcohol check point and driving dangerously.

It was his third time before the courts for driving offences - prompting the magistrate's warning he would be jailed next time.

The teen was banned from driving until 2013, placed on a 12-month good behaviour bond and ordered to perform 150 hours community work.
But the magistrate was not the only one exasperated by the teenager's recklessness.

Sydney's Daily Telegraph was inundated with comments from readers after the newspaper published a photo of the baby-faced offender flashing a grin and two thumbs up.

The paper's editorial backed the magistrate, saying his comments were "a vision in clarity" and gave the teenager "a reality check of his future".
"We can only hope this strategy helps. Hope it ends the slaughter of young innocents on the roads through stupidity," the paper said

lol if it works or not i dont know, great comical value though, id imagine it would cause uproar here if a mag said something like that

No it wouldn't

It would go something like this

"I would like to appeal against the custodial sentence due to the fact that even the Judge acknowledges that I will be subjected to Sexual Assault as a result of being locked up.

This would be against my Human Rights

Please pay my court fees and a substantial compensation for the Stress and Worry that facing Rape has caused me."

i'd lock him up and throw away the key for being called Cody Heap...

well they dont ave too say that then, just give all the lil gits soap on a rope and some freindly advise DONT BEND OVER IN THE SHOWER.

I'm with Keith on that - I think a name like that is all the justification needed to reinstate capital punishment.

Kid or parents? Or all of them, gene-pool cleansing style?
