- Westminster magistrates’ court imposed a 25-week prison sentence suspended for 12 months with probation supervision.
- Clarke must complete an alcohol‑abstinence program with electronic alcohol monitoring as part of her sentence.
- The judge said the offences were racially aggravated and warranted custody but suspended the term because she is the sole carer for her four‑year‑old child.
