Joe Goodwin Pleads Guilty to Abuse | Glasgow News

A Glasgow man, Joe Goodwin, 42, pleaded guilty to two charges of threatening and abusive behavior after a violent outburst at Pacific Quay on August 31, 2025. He stormed into the building, shouted racist slurs, made sexual gestures, threatened staff with a pen, and even targeted police by swiping a cup of water at them. His vitriolic language included calling people “paedos,” “rapists,” and “Pakistani scumbags,” and he targeted Nigel Farage as well. The sheriff called the abuse among the worst he’s heard for racial hatred and disrespect toward officers, noting it crossed the custodial threshold. Sentencing is deferred until next month for background checks, but jail time is expected. Goodwin remains on bail pending further review.
