Original Note:
Peter Lynch wasn't jailed "for shouting abuse at police in a protest". He was jailed after pleading guilty to violent disorder during a riot outside a hotel housing asylum seekers. Sheffield Crown Court was told he was a “full participant” and instigator in the riot. - https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/10/21/rioter-dies-in-prison-after-being-jailed-for-two-years/ - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cpw5w8nl5ezo - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cy8x5x51l3vo
