Upset and Upsetting

When a woman decided to go ballastic in Granada, four people ended up injured, one them them quite seriously after getting an hit by an ashtray in the face.

The woman had had similar ‘take-cover’ moments in the past, which probably influenced the appeals judge in confirming her sentence of three and a half years in jail. She can take her case to the Regional Supreme Court, of course.

The incident that led to this court sentence occurred in July, 2021, in the interior of a bar in Ogíjares (Vega de Granada).

She had walked into the bar and begun talking with the owner concerning work conditions — nothing indicated that things would go wobbly rapidly.

Upon finishing the conversation, she approached a customer who was quietly drinking, and without expressing a word, she slapped his face. To say that he, along with the rest of the bar occupants at the time, was surprised, is an understatement

The bar owner, demonstrating unfounded optimism, decided to order her to leave, because she grabbed a heavy ashtray off the bar and threw it at his head and shortly after laid into another customer who (again, optimistically) had tried to calm her down.

Between them, they managed to eject her from the bar, where, far from calming down, she decided that a parked car was to blame for her being outside instead of inside the bar.

She up picked terrace chairs and started launching them against the cringing vehicle. Another optimist, the owner of the said car, decided that she needed a good talking to; i.e., a “I say, you can’t do…” discourse. She quickly showed him what she could do upon his person.

So, finally arrested and marched off, the walking wounded were taken to a medical centre to have their wounds treated and officially noted for the police report. The bar owner was treated for his black eye and cheek abrasions whilst the other two had minor injuries to their arms and scalp. No doubt she had ripped some hair out.

As for material damages to the bar and the car, it was calculated to be 4,935 euros in total to the bar and 169 euros to the car.

Her lawyer had argued that there was insufficient evidence to convict her. The judge disagreed. The victims’ accounts of the event were judged perfectly credible. Her behaviour was judged “irrational and without apparent motive.”

No doubt the judge delivered the verdict safely crouched behind his desk.
