Street thug could have killed me..all he got was slap on wrist The Pill Fortres HO

A MAN who was left for dead in an unprovoked attack has slammed the "lenient" sentence handed to his attacker.

Stuart Jackson, from Fife, was enjoying an evening out with colleagues in Inverness in June 2023 when he was set upon by Michael Agnew, 35.

Stuart, 51, cracked his head open on a kerb when he was slammed to the ground and knocked unconscious. Friends thought he was dead as blood poured from his head and Agnew ran off.

The chef has no memory of the events and has had to rely on pals and police.

Stuart said: "It was my last night working at the Kingsmill Hotel in Inverness, so my colleagues suggested we go out for some drinks to celebrate.

"We were out for a couple of hours and were heading back, walking up the High Street, having a laugh, and the next thing I remember is waking up in hospital.

"I'm told this man started accusing the group of laughing at him, saying he wanted a fight.
