  1. Not that I am condoning any of the acts committed, but after reviewing the video footage numerous times it does appear to me that the “Victim” came at the offender first and did infact try to strike him first. I do not condone the length at which the attacker went to but throwing the man to the ground is an act of self defence in this matter. The following punches and kicks to the “Victim” were very callous and grossly over the top.

  2. Wonder where this bully learned this behaviour? He should be banned by hotel accord for life

  3. I bet it he would have got jail time if Mr Coghlan was the victim.

  4. What a joke, the poor bloke was hurt couldn’t work for a week and hospitalized Yet the judge didn’t think the assault was serious enough for jail time. What kinda message is this sending out, its ok to belt someone cause you’ll get a slap on the wrist??? What do you have to do to get jail kill someone??? No justice for the victim.

  5. I think this is disgusting. No priors! No jail. What about the victim it will affect him for a very long time. Where’s the justice for him
