Hi, the Police have finally sent my Sons case file to the CPS after just over 2 years since his arrest. I always knew this would happen, but since finding out it has actually been sent I feel more nervous and down to the point I don't want to go to work I just want to stay in bed. How long have other people waited to get a reply from the CPS ? It is just more agonising waiting x

We're only at 6 months of bail and I am having a rubbish week of anxiety/ low mood about my son and the bail conditions/ restrictions, and can only imagine how I'll be feeling when the case moves on. Sending love and support and hope next stage is quick for you. The waiting drives us all mad! X

Sorry you find yourself here.

CPS seems very varied depending on where you are in the UK.

We are sat waiting for a decision from CPS since the end of Jan!. No idea apart from a huge backlog as to why it takes so long. I just want to know either way now. The waiting,the what if thinking of all the different scenarios doesn't do anyone any good.

Why on TV do they show it happen all so quickly that they make a decision to charge or not.

You have waiting a long time already. Hopefully you hear sooner rather than later
