“If they had all been shopping, one can only imagine the substantial profit Greater Manchester businesses would have made'
A lawless looter encouraged others to ransack a Sainsburys during widespread disorder in Manchester city centre.
On August 3, Mott was seen in Piccadilly Gardens where the disorder began before making his way down to Mosley Street. Prosecutors described the protest as a ‘predominantly right-wing group’. The store manager said he received information from the security staff that the group would be making their way down Mosley Street and came out onto the shop floor to help his staff. He said he could see people taking bottles of booze from the aisle and told staff to ‘let them take what they want’ as he was concerned for his staff’s safety.
Mitigating, Megan Horner said her client was ‘extremely remorseful’. “He tells me he went into the city centre to go shopping, as with many others he got caught up in the protest,” she said.Judge Field said he was ‘yet to encounter’ an offender who had gone for the purpose of joining the mob.
