Hart was sentenced over the prank on Tuesday, with Perth District Court Judge Felicity Zempilas telling him she did not accept the claim he thought he had innocuous fart spray in his pocket and not Satan’s Spit as he was seen on CCTV repeatedly looking at the product.

Yeah, I had a hunch it wasn't "a prank". But even if this didn't happen and it was a fart spray, I'd say give them a slap on the wrist for that antisocial crap too (just not a full 16 months like this capsaicin chemical attack earned).

Dunno why traumatic is in quotes and prank isn’t.

I'm guessing it's an actual quote and not a scare quote, even if it doesn't read that way.

edit: I just realised, is there even a legitimate use for that product, culinary or otherwise, or is it effectively consumer-available pepper spray?
