Adam Lawson.

This ape went totally bananas on this poor teacher.

Perhaps she claimed that rap “wasn’t real music” or something.

News4Jax:

Seven weeks after a 26-year-old ex-con pleaded guilty in the brutal murder of a beloved Jacksonville music teacher, the I-TEAM has obtained evidence showing how police cracked the case.

Deborah Liles, 62, was beaten to death in her Panama Park home in March 2017.

Adam Lawson pleaded guilty to breaking into Liles’ home, beating her with a frying pan and a golf club and then stealing her car. He was sentenced to life in prison.

Liles’ husband, Michael Liles, the former leader of the Justice Coalition, died last year of natural causes before the murder case came to a close.

News4Jax has obtained video of Lawson’s interrogation interview, showing that when police first brought him in to question him about Deborah Liles’ death, he denied any involvement.

…

Nearly two years later, Lawson confessed, pleading guilty to charges of first-degree murder, armed burglary, grand theft auto and possession of a firearm by a felon. He agreed to a plea deal so he would not get the death penalty.

A patriotic forklift driver was sacked after he turned up for work in an England flag hat – on St George’s Day.

Adam Lawson, 32, wanted to celebrate England’s national day at his job at South Marston Distribution Centre (SDC) in Swindon, Wiltshire.

But the father-of-three was ordered to remove the red and white flat cap because it was not part of the official uniform.

Mr Lawson refused – and was later told never to come back.

Mr Lawson, who is also from Swindon, said: ‘I was told that I couldn’t work while I was wearing it as it did not match uniform standards.

‘It is ridiculous, it was St George’s Day and it was a little thing that I wanted to do to celebrate it.

‘St George’s Day is part of English culture, I didn’t want to offend anyone or cause malice and I don’t believe I did.

‘I’m disgusted as I’m a patriotic guy and to me it is wrong that I wasn’t allowed to celebrate English culture and was deterred from doing so, as I wasn’t doing any harm.

‘I think it is a sad state of affairs if we are stopped from acknowledging our culture.’

Mr Lawson had worked at SDC, which stocks Honda parts, for eight months through the agency Pertemps, He had handed in his notice one day earlier because he had a new job.

But he later received a phone call from the recruitment company, apparently telling him SDC did not want him to work through his notice period.

Mr Lawson, who lives with partner Sam Gregory and three children Paige, six, Lexi, four, and one-year-old Jamie, believes his colleagues are on his side.

He said: ‘When I was leaving, a lot of my colleagues came up to me and said they had sympathy for me.

‘I got the phone call at about 4pm telling me they didn’t want me back which was a shock as I’d worked really hard there.
