Sometimes little news stories go far and wide. Fast.
I suspect we have a story in development that might get picked up by news services all over the place.
It's a court item.
The offender has pled guilty to commiting a crime with a knife.
In sentencing him, the judge also banned him from using a knife -- any knife -- for a set period.
Defence counsel sought to gain the offender some relief so he could use a knife at meals. That was rejected.
Forks and spoons for that feller then.
