just amuses me even though it shouldn't:
The 50-year-old science teacher was already annoyed at a pupil playing with window blinds at All Saints' Roman Catholic School in Mansfield, where Harvey had taught for 16 years.
But when a 14-year-old boy swore at him, the teacher picked up a 3kg (6.6lb) dumbbell and attacked the child with it.
In court, it was claimed he said "die, die, die" as he struck the boy on the head.
