Offensive Hillsborough T-shirt man fined £600

A MAN arrested for wearing a sick T-shirt mocking 96 Liverpool fans who died in the 1989 Hillsborough disaster has been fined £600 after pleading guilty to a public order offence.

Paul Grange, of Lower Wick, told Worcester Magistrates’ Court he was ashamed of what he had done and had deservedly lost his home, job, friends and relationship.

Mr Grange — who admitted a charge of displaying abusive writing likely to cause distress — was also ordered to pay a £60 victim surcharge and £135 in costs.
