Jack Tweed has been found guilty of assault after a court rejected his claim that his victims provoked him by making crude jokes about his late wife Jade Goody.  The 27-year-old has been convicted of assaulting three students on a night out in Chelmsford on October 23rd 2014. Tweed allegedly attacked two men and grabbed a woman's wrist after a row over sharing a taxi. Tweed, who denied the assault charges, claimed that the students made derogatory remarks about Jade Goody, calling her a "boiled egg" (referring to her battle with cancer). Jade Goody and Jack Tweed outside her home in 2009.  However a magistrate at Chelmsford Magistrates’ Court disregarded Tweed’s claim based on the "credible" evidence of three witnesses. They explained: "As a result we do not believe the ‘boiled egg’ comment was ever made. We wonder why, if it had been made, you didn’t raise it as a defence when interviewed by police. "Furthermore, we believe they didn’t know who you were and, considering their age, there is no reason to believe they would." Tweed was ordered to pay £100 compensation to each of his victims as well as £750 in court costs and a £60 victim surcharge. He was also given 150 hours of community service.
