Ferrari Justice!
Remember the sad tale of the chef that went crazy on Jay Kay’s Ferrari Enzo? It seems Aaron Billington will have to pay for the damage he inflicted on the Prancing Horse. After he was convicted of the crime, the courts of Ipswich sentenced the cooker to fork over cold hard cash to pay for [...]
