The 19 year old student who was caught urinating over a war memorial has been told he could face jail time for his actions.
Laing, who appeared in the dock wearing a poppy, pleaded guilty to outraging public decency when he appeared at Sheffield Magistrates' Court. He is said to have been too drunk to remember any of the events of that night.
Prosecutor Ian Conway said Laing had immediately admitted the offence when arrested and told police he was "very, very drunk, the drunkest I've ever been since I've been at university." Although I don't see that this excuses his actions, nobody forced the alcohol on him and he should have been responsible for hi actions when drunk.
