Paraded around the streets of Liverpool City Centre hopefully, after reading this!
“ Mr Greaney continues: “We will play a piece of footage that illustrates the prosecution case. It is from an internal camera, the dashcam, within the defendant’s vehicle, which recorded both video and audio. The footage we are about to display shows the defendant’s driving from a point at just before he encountered traffic management measures, in the form of cones, on Dale Street. His driving had been dangerous even before this point, but what we are about to see represents the most serious aspect of his conduct. What we are about to display on the screens is truly shocking.”
The dash cam footage is played to the courts.
It shows Doyle’s car making its way through the thick crowds, which part to allow him to continue along Dale Street.
People are heard banging on his car in order to remonstrate with him, but Doyle speeds up, beeping his horn as he does so.
Children are seen jumping out of the way of his path.
While driving through the crowd Doyle can be heard to say “f***ing p*****”.
He then comes to a set of traffic cones and stops.
He again says “f***ing p*****”, with crowds responding with chants of “w*****”.
The footage shows Doyle reverse slightly, before shouting “f***ing d***head, f***ing p*****”.
The cam shows Doyle speed towards Water Street and crash into a man who rolls over the bonnet.
Around half a dozen people are thrown to the floor, but Doyle continues to shout: “F***ing move get out the f***ing way, f***ing hell. F***s sake move get out the f***ing way.”
A child is seen to be thrown to the floor by his car.
He again shouts: “Get out the f***ing way. Move. Move. Move. Move.”
A terrified woman appears to become trapped under the front of the car, but Doyle continues to drive forward.
There are gasps among the public gallery and many are in tears.
One woman is sitting with her head in her hands.
Doyle is in tears with his head bowed.
The footage is too graphic and upsetting to be released to the media and the public.”
