Snoop Dogg was recently described as a "misogynist wretch" by Northern Ireland Judge during the trial of a woman who punched a police offer after the rapper's gig.

Barney McElholm, who imposed a 12-month probation order to 18-year-old Simone Campbell, said that despite the bad behaviour espoused by Dogg's lyrics there was no excuse for this, the Independent reported.

McElholm added that why any woman would want to go to a concert to listen to this "misogynist wretch" escapes me and why was he allowed into the country in the first place is another matter.

Campbell, who admitted punching the police officer, had consumed eight glasses of wine and a quantity" of rum on the night of the concert at Derry's Ebrington Square in October 2014.
