Lucifer - Michael Pinder
A MAN who gave his name in court as Lucifer threatened to burn down his own mother’s house and slit her throat. District Judge Jane Goodwin was told how the man was obsessed with the Devil – a fixation he had developed since he started misusing drugs. The court heard how the defendant, whose real name is Michael Pinder, had pleaded guilty to common assault on his mother, threats to endanger her Burnley home by fire and theft of £250, also from him mum. Prosecutor Neil White explained how the 36-year-old had argued with his mother over money and said that if she went out, she would not come back to a home - because he was going to set fire to it.
