Top cop s criticism of sentence in Spalding racist abuse case
| Updated: 12:04, 05 April 2021
A senior police officer has said the sentence handed out to a man who racially abused a taxi driver in Spalding is not enough of a deterrent to stop such behaviour.
In last weekâs Spalding Guardian we reported on the case of former professional golfer John William Ronson.
The 55-year-old admitted using âracially abusive words and behaviourâ towards a driver in Spalding in a hearing before Boston magistrates on March 23.
Chief Superintendent Paul Timmins and Assistant Chief Constable Kerrin Wilson.
Ronson was fined £200, ordered to pay £200 compensation to the driver and had to pay £119 in court costs and charges in relation to the incident - which took place on August 17 last year.
