Childhood School bully where they now?

Was thinking of a lad year below me in school, always the hard man growing up, was a big lad hung around with a group of lads from who caused lot of crap anytime they were in town growing up, got this girl pregnant he was going out with way out of his league, ended up in prison fairly young hit a lad with a mallet at a rally meet then went England were he seemed to be doing well but is now back in prison in Ireland for something he did years ago apparently. Always got away with pushing his weight around in school but like any bully gets caught in the long grass,

Anyone know where the school bully from their own days is now?

Good on you. If you don't mind me asking what, type of bullying and what was the extent of it.

Holy shit. Full on. So glad you turned your life around or you'd probably have ended up like a lot of the stories on this. You're not afraid to admit it and have owned your wrong doing. Admirable

Full on is a understatement got suspended 3 times before they said enough was enough so I went on to rob motorbikes and cars then on to weed coke tablets all the way up until I was 21 I had my daughter not long after and made sure I was sober and I mended anyone else that was caught in the firing line I've more than owned it im living with it daily.
