My son had court today thank God that is over with now the dreaded wait to see if makes the media!. I just feel numb I'm so relieved its over but yh i just feel numb at the minute.

As anyone else's made the media and what was the time scale as to when it went in his solicitor said if was gonna go in would more then likely be straight away today she said there was no press present tho so she dont think it will (fingers crossed) .

Supporting someone you care about through a court hearing can be incredibly difficult. It takes a toll in ways you don’t always expect. In my own experience, the numbness and emotional flatness didn’t lift right away — it took a few weeks before those feelings slowly began to ease.

My son's case appeared in the media the same day as court which added another layer of shock and heaviness to an already overwhelming situation.

I wish you both all the best and really hope you manage to escape the media.
