The judge said 'keyboard warriors' like Julie Sweeney must learn to take responsibility for their 'disgusting and inflammatory language' amid the recent scenes of disorder across the country.
A 53-year-old carer has been jailed after she admitted posting on Facebook: 'Don't protect the mosques, blow the mosque up with the adults in it'. It comes as prison sentences continue to be handed out following recent disorder and rioting in the UK and rioting, which came after the fatal stabbing of three young girls in Southport on 29 July. Julie Sweeney was sentenced at Chester Crown Court to 15 months in prison after she admitted posting the comment on 3 August.
The father-of-three, of Oak Avenue in Rotherham, filmed on a phone as he followed a group into the Holiday Inn Express through a smashed-in fire door, a judge heard. Sheffield Crown Court was shown footage of the crowd breaking in, bringing out items including furniture and fire extinguishers and throwing them at police officers holding riot shields.
