JAILED..TOP TORY'S BOY WHO BOTTLED CLUBBER Feb 16 2005
He flipped after man trod on foot
By Aidan Mcgurran - Daily Mirror
THE son of a Tory MP who smashed a champagne bottle over another
clubber's head was jailed for four years yesterday.
David Amess, 20, had been drinking and lashed out when plumber Paul
Trussler, 28, accidentally trod on his foot.
His dad David snr, 54, MP for Southend West, Es***, looked devastated
as Amess was sent down. A friend said: "The family is absolutely
heartbroken."
Amess, who has a child, had denied wounding Mr Trussler claiming he
punched him first at Talk nightclub in Southend.
But after he was convicted, Judge Charles Gratwicke told him: "Your
behaviour that night was disgraceful - this was a deliberate act." Mr
Trussler suffered a four inch gash which needed seven stitches last
May.
Sarah Foreshaw, defending, said: "Mr Amess is a troubled man. He was
self-harming, sometimes literally punching himself on to the floor and
cutting and burning himself. He even drank disinfectant. This is a man
who has real problems."
