Default Cyclist's attackers jailed.

Two of them as usual.

"A man and a woman have been jailed for taking part in an attack in
Southampton that left a cyclist with severe head injuries and brain
damage. David Baker, 24, was in coma for almost two weeks after he was
attacked on Central Bridge on 8 June 2010.

Appearing at Southampton Crown Court, Stephanie Hill, 19, from
Thornill, Southampton, was jailed for four years. John Smith, 27, from
Botley, was given an indeterminate sentence and told he must serve at
least four years."

What a pity it has taken over a year to reach court.

It all sounds well-deserved.

Indeed, has there been a reason for the delay?
