- Stewart laced a curry with slug pellets which he then gave to his two neighbours. However, they noticed a strange smell and did not eat the curry, instead calling the police.
The judge said: 'This was a mean offence. I fail to understand precisely what you thought you were doing…In any event I am prepared to accept that you realized you would not cause any serious harm even if this food was consumed.' - Case Timeline
