Charles Bronson’s jibe at potential juror as he denies assaulting prison guard
BRITAIN’S most notorious prisoner Charles Bronson mocked a juror for being fat today as he went on trial accused of viciously assaulting a jail governor.
Bronson, 65, is alleged to have whistled the theme from The Great Escape before trying to gouge out the eyes of Wakefield prison boss Mark Docherty - during a row over his withheld wedding photos.
The violent lag - who changed his name to Charles Salvador - appeared wearing a green and yellow prison boiler suit when he appeared to face a charge of GBH with intent at Leeds Crown Court today.
But even with his future years in the balance - he seemed more interested in poking fun at the very people who could decide his fate.
Flanked by five dock officers and sporting a shaved head, dark glasses and a trademark moustache, he chose to represent himself during the trial.
Three members of the jury panel later indicated they had links to the Prison Service.
Judge Tom Bayliss asked Bronson whether he minded any of them sitting on the jury to which the defendant replied: "That big fat one there. I will have him.”
Mr Bayliss said: "I have to say insulting the jury at this stage is not a good idea.”
Bronson continued: "That one that has eaten all the pies, I will have him.”
The charge facing the lag dates back to November last year.
Bronson had an arranged meeting with Mr Docherty to discuss his welfare within the prison system in the adjudication room at Wakefield Prison, the court heard.
Bronson, who was not in handcuffs, was escorted from his cell by five prison officers when he struck.
Prosecutor Carl Fitch said: “He began to dance on his toes and started to whistle the tune to the movie ‘The Great Escape’”.
As the door was opened Bronson rushed the governor.
“He wrapped his arms around Mr Docherty’s neck with such force that he fell off his chair,” Mr Fitch added.
Bronson then screamed and tried to get to his victim’s eyes, but Mr Docherty was able to move his face away until the inmate was overpowered by prison guards.
Irate Bronson had harboured a grudge against Mr Docherty for two months and allegedly shouted: ”You can f**k with me but you can never f**k with my mother.”
Back in his cell Bronson confessed he had wanted to seriously hurt Mr Docherty since November.
Mr Fitch told the court that Bronson wed television actress Paula Williamson on November 14 last year, at a ceremony in HMP Wakefield.
A few guests were allowed but would not be allowed to take photographs.
The prison offered to organise photographs of the wedding ceremony to be taken but Bronson and his bride - who have since separated - would not be allow this because they feared the snaps would be leaked to the press, the court heard.
“For that reason Mr Salvador had a grudge against Mr Docherty, who he partly blamed for that decision of withholding photographs,” said Mr Fitch.
Cops interviewed Bronson about the attack and he claimed he had spent 40 years in prison and much of that time in solitary confinement and was suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder.
Bronson denies the charge of attempting to cause GBH with intent.
The trial continues.
