Family shake son's urn at killer driver

A grieving couple took their son's ashes to court - to humiliate the drink-driver who hit and left him to die.

Colin and Anne Harrison held the urn high as Brian Williams was jailed for seven and-a-half years for mowing down 21-year-old cyclist Billy.

And when he tried to apologise, they left Manchester crown court, yelling: "The only thing you're sorry about is that you got caught."

Dad-of-two Williams, 35, whose 19 previous convictions include driving disqualified and drink-driving, was on the wrong side of the road when he hit Billy at 3am. He was also banned for 15 years for causing death by dangerous driving. But the Harrisons, also of Manchester, said: "We still feel empty and angry. We have no peace.'
