Last October those of us who’ve lived in share houses were enthralled by the tale of Zhenghao Shen who took to a housemate’s head with a chef’s knife when the noise of a late night gaming session got too much for him.
The ABC now reports that Chief Justice Higgins appears to have had some sympathy, handing down a 12 month suspended sentence with an 18 month good behaviour bond for recklessly inflicting grievous bodily harm.
So when your housemate asks you to turn it down, give it some thought. Or they might go all Zhenghao on you.
