Extinguisher, rather than hydrant. And he's been sentenced today -

Presumably he won't now have to worry about a university eductaion, fees
or no fees.

Why? AFAIK, there's no general bar on ex-criminals studying at
university, although there might be for specific courses (Law, perhaps).

Some long-term prisoners have gained degrees while in prison (via the
Open University etc). A 2-year 8-month sentence is too short for that,
though.
