Boy George facing jail sentence

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/london/7766624.stm


In short

The famous singer Boy George, whose real name is George O’Dowd, has been found guilty of falsely imprisoning a male escort at his flat in London. The victim, 29-year old Audun Carlsen, said that O’Dowd attacked him when he tried to escape the flat and later handcuffed Carlsen on to a bed. O’Dowd himself claimed that Carlsen stole photographs of O’Dowd from his laptop. Although O’Dowd didn’t’ give any evidence during the trial of imprisoning Carlsen in his flat, he did tell the police earlier that he handcuffed Carlsen while he was investigating the alleged tempering of his computer. The musician will be sentenced on the 16th of January, but the judge told him that he was likely to face jail.



What does Rene think about this

Boy oh Boy, what a strange case this is. We all know Boy George as an extravagant character who is not afraid to shock people, but this time he got himself into serious trouble. He has acted a bit dumb in this case, imprisoning an escort because he is afraid that he stole photos from him, what was he thinking. And if he handled a bit smarter he even could have saved his behind, but he told the police in all honesty that he handcuffed the guy because he wanted to caught him red handed. With all this stupidity there is only one solution, and that is punish this crazy fellow, let him feel what it is like to be imprisoned.
