'Do not be a hero': Armed robber raids Glasgow pharmacy
Anthony Kinnon carried out an armed robbery at the Willis Pharmacy in Glasgow's Knightswood Shopping Centre on September 26 2023. The 62-year-old went behind the counter and told staff: "I am not going to hurt you. "Do not be a hero. Give me the methadone and the Valium." After then leaving the chemist, Kinnon was later traced having taken most of the pills he had been given during the raid. He recently pleaded guilty to a charge of assault and robbery at the High Court in Glasgow. Prosecutor David McDonald told the hearing how Kinnon already had a long criminal record including two convictions for similar offences. Kinnon's lawyer Allan MacLeod went on to give judge Lord Cubie further background about Kinnon. The defence advocate said: "He is man who has spent a total of 18 years of his life in jail - 13 years of that in solitary confinement. "He has been in every prison establishment in the country. READ NEXT: Former Catholic priest admits repeated abuse of boy more than 40 years ago READ NEXT: Serious organised crime unit cop sentenced for sexually assaulting colleagues on duty "He believes that if he is returned to jail, he will not leave." Regarding the robbery, Mr MacLeod said Kinnon had "not been thinking clearly at the time" and had wanted pills with a plan to take his own life. The court was told Kinnon had not intended to use the blade - but Lord Cubie commented staff would not have known that. Kinnon - who had latterly been staying at homeless accommodation in the city centre - had been on bail prior to the hearing. Mr MacLeod made a motion for him not to be locked up pending pre-sentencing reports being completed. He stated to the judge: "I am asking you to take a chance on him." But, Lord Cubie remanded him in custody as the case was adjourned until July 8 in Edinburgh.

Monk who brought shame on Catholic boarding school jailed for abusing pupils
Michael James Callaghan, known as Father James, has been jailed for seven years for preying on the vulnerable teenage boys at Ampleforth College in North Yorkshire. Judge Richard Clews, sentencing at Durham Crown Court, told the 71-year-old: 'It cannot go unsaid that your actions have brought the Catholic church and the school into serious disrepute by their nature and number.' Following a trial last month at Teesside Crown Court, Callaghan was convicted of 12 counts of indecent assault on one pupil in the 1990s and one count of sexual assault on another teenager in the 2010s. The older victim, neither of whom can be identified, faced the priest in court as he read out a statement in which he said 'Father James was manipulative and controlling'. He said: 'My life was hijacked when I was just 14 and I have been dealing with the fallout ever since.' The court heard how the house master groomed the boy and engineered ways to be alone with him, took him out of school for meals and gave him cigarettes. The complainant said in his police interview that Callaghan would 'take on the role of a boy I had a crush on' and they would kiss and simulate sex, telling officers he 'hated the sexual bit of it' and realised as an adult it 'wasn't right'. The second victim, who had his bottom fondled by Callaghan, said it was 'weird and quite frightening' that his abuser was a priest. In a victim statement which was read out for him, he said he hoped Callaghan could be rehabilitated, and 'that he may in time examine his conscience, practice repentance and change his ways'. David Lamb KC, defending, said Callaghan had sought medical help to address his attraction to boys even before he joined Ampleforth, that he had no previous convictions and that he had expressed remorse after his conviction. The judge said Callaghan, of Moortown, Leeds, would be subject to an indefinite sexual harm prevention order and will be on the sex offender register for life. Judge Clews said right-thinking people would 'recoil in horror' at the idea of a Roman Catholic priest having a sexual relationship with a boy. The school, described in court as 'the Catholic Eton', said after the sentencing that it had 'overhauled' it safeguarding systems. In a statement, it said: 'Ampleforth College deplores abuse and offers a heartfelt apology to the victims and their families for the profound suffering and pain that Michael James Callaghan has inflicted upon them. 'We acknowledge past failings and feel great sorrow at the terrible betrayal of trust.' It said the monk left the school in 2018 and it fully supported the police inquiries which began in 2022. The statement added: 'We are committed to reporting any safeguarding concerns to the relevant authorities and supporting the police and relevant authorities in any investigation. 'We actively offer any help we can give to survivors of abuse and we commend their courage in speaking out.' After the sentencing, Detective Constable Alison Morris, of North Yorkshire Police, said: 'Not only did Callaghan abuse his position of trust in the most appalling way, taking advantage of vulnerable boys he should have been caring for and protecting, he denied his offences throughout and showed no remorse for the pain and suffering he caused.'
