FRAUD
Brendon Fearon was branded a fraud after he was
seen striding briskly from his house with no sign
of a limp, and dashing to catch a bus as it drove
off. Fearon left his end of terrace house, walked
into Newark town centre, Notts, and caught a bus.
He declined to comment on pictures said to show
him riding a bike. Later he ran for another bus.
An onlooker said, "It was as plain as day.
He saw it was moving off and just jogged right
after it. There was no sign of a limp. You would
not have thought he was in any physical
difficulty." |
REVIEW ORDERED
Fearon was back in jail after being arrested and
recalled to prison by the Home Office after he
appeared before magistrates in Newark,
Nottinghamshire, accused of taking a Toyota
Landcruiser without the owner's consent and
driving without insurance.
The court was told that Fearon should have been
observing a 7pm until 7am home curfew when the
offences are said to have been committed in
Newark on 24 August. A police officer is believed
to have said he saw him in a car.
An urgent review of the case was ordered by Home
Office officials, who informed David Blunkett,
the Home Secretary, after they learnt the police
did not appear to have told the probation service
of the alleged breach. They also want to know why
Nottinghamshire Police did not arrest the suspect
until 11 days after the alleged incident. |

BRENDON FEARON
Brendon Fearon is seeking at least £100,000 compensation
from freed farmer Tony Martin. That’s more than SIX
TIMES the £15,000 the career criminal was initially
after. And the move comes just days after his brother Joe
insisted he was dropping his lawsuit. Fearon has made a
ludicrous string of claims in a writ presented to the
High Court and funded by legal aid. His lawyers maintain
that he cannot...
... enjoy decent sex because of his leg injuries.
... watch TV programmes involving tragedy, because he
“becomes very tearful if he sees a film in which
someone dies”.
... work, even though he has never held down a job for
any length of time.
... carry on with his hobbies of jujitsu and kick boxing,
or
... lead a proper social life because he suffers from
post traumatic stress disorder.
He says his leg injuries prevent him from working, yet he
RAN away from newsmen outside his home in Newark, Notts.
Prison sources say Fearon, recently released early from
an 18-month sentence for supplying heroin, worked out
regularly in jail. And his brother joked that Fearon had
“a lot of catching up to do” with his
girlfriend. Even so the crook, who has 35 convictions
dating back to when he was 14, is determined to push
ahead with his action. A close associate said, “He
wants at least £100,000 and has been told he will win.
He could get even more because that is his right. Just
because he was on someone’s property doesn’t
give someone the right to shoot him. Mr Martin will have
to pay the price.”
