And then there's the curious case of Ilias Chair. Although under Belgian jurisdiction where you have to try incredibly hard to get sent down he essentially got away with breaking a lorry drivers skull with a tyre iron. Even Ivan Toney wouldn't have betted on an acquittal for that one as Chair didn't really have a leg to stand on 😉 .
