SEX ATTACKER Williams

Brit ski thug

gets 10 years

A BRITISH ski instructor

laughed as he attacked a

woman in a mountain

resort, a court heard.

Matthew Williams, 29,

was seen on CCTV stalking

his victim and a male

friend as they left a pub.

He punched the man,

leaving him unconscious,

and then hit the 22-year-

old woman several times

before biting her breasts.

The attack took place in

the town of Jindabyne, in

Australia’s Snowy Moun-

tains, in July last year.

Williams was yesterday

jailed for 10 years after he

admitted aggravated

sexual assault and ABH.

FRAUDSTER Carla Evans

Cancer lies in

wedding con

A WOMAN tried to con a

charity into forking out

£15,000 for her wedding by

pretending she had just six

months to live.

Carla Evans, 29, told

Wish For A Wedding

bosses she had terminal

bladder cancer, forging

signatures from doctors.

NHS fraud investigators

uncovered the scam.

Evans, from Caerphilly,

South Wales, was branded

the “lowest of the low” by

judge Jeremy Jenkins at

Newport Crown Court.

She was given a year’s

suspended sentence after

admitting fraud.

KITTEN IN THE WASHER

...GET MEOWT OF HERE

FINE Pet after trip to vet

A KITTEN cheated death after

falling asleep in a washing mach-

ine and being taken for a spin.

Comet was on hot wash for

sev eral minutes after Naomi

Thompson put the laundry on.

She only realised he was trapped

when she heard loud meows from

the inside the machine. Naomi

forced the door open but could not

find Comet among the washing.

Her screams brought husband

Perry rushing downstairs in

Gillingham, Kent.

He said: “I put my hand in and felt

Comet’s tail in among clothes at the

bottom of the drum. He wasn’t

breathing. I thought he was gone.”

Perry put Comet on the kitchen

floor and started CPR.

He added: “I was pumping his

chest and breathing into his mouth

and he came round. He’s one lucky

cat!”

Trump changes mind

over ‘terrific’ Epstein

WITH more flip flops than Bondi Beach, US President

Donald Trump has taken his amnesia to new levels in

recent weeks, especially over past friendships.

Old Donnie once said of now-deceased paedophile

pal Jeffrey Epstein: “I’ve known Jeff for 15 years.

“Terrific guy. He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even

said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do,

and many of them are on the younger side.”

Roll on today and he’s telling anyone that listens: “I

was not a fan of his, that I can tell you.”

A married police officer is suing a dating site over its

use of a Facebook photo after his wife demanded to

know why his image was being used in its adverts

boasting of “uniformed singles”.

David Guzman, from Golden Beach, Florida,

launched legal action against NSI Holdings which he

claims used his picture to promote their page

UniformDating.com without him signing up.

On the road this week, so I’ve fortunately

got away from my barman, Richard, for a

bit. He’d have appreciated a freeway sign I saw in

Florida, though. It read: “Get your head out of your

apps. Don’t text and drive.”

A South Carolina personal injury lawyer famous for

his TV ads has won an order stopping his son from

using the family name to market a competing law

firm. George Sink Sr fired George Sink Jr in February,

nearly a year after his son began working for his firm.

Don’t expect to see them on Family Fortunes soon.

Residents in a Virginia neighbourhood woke to find

50 free TVs at their doors.

Sadly they weren’t new flat screens

but the old fashioned boxy variety.

The benefactor /culprit behind

this TV mystery shouldn’t be

hard to find... CCTV showed he

was wearing blue overalls and a

television on his head Anyone

remember Evil Edna?

Washington State trooper Sgt Kyle Smith pulled

over to help a driver stopped on the

hard shoulder thinking he needed

assistance.

What he found was a man

behind the wheel with eight

phones simultaneously

playing the video game

Pokemon Go.

After (Pika) chewing out the

driver out, he let him go on his way.

Talk about sea-weed.... Authorities found 1,300

pounds of plastic-wrapped marijuana floating in the

ocean near Santa Catalina Island off Southern

California.

Like what the? Boffins at “The” Ohio State

University want to trademark the word “The” when

used as part of the school’s name on merchandise

produced about the university.
