I'm heartbroken for you xx stay strong
thanks for your messages everyone.
Everyone including the prosecution was astounded.
Our QC came straight out and said well that's us off to the appeal courts.
Apparently our QC and solicitor had been working at the 3 or 5 years points. However the judge started at the 8 year point, which apparently is very unusual.
Haven't even heard from him yet have no idea which prison he is in. We are all just heartbroken.

Notsurewheretogo I'm so sorry to hear this.
The exact same happened to my husband, he was sentanced in that bracket starting at 8 years and he got 40 months. Was told its because of how the law changed at the beginning of the year, so angry as if sentanced in Jan the lawyers said they could have guaranteed a suspended sentance with all his mitigating, all reports saying he was low risk and less than 2% chance of reoffending and being 1st time offense. He was told as it was reduced from 8 years he wouldn't be able to appeal as had been reduced so much. Its so hard to get your head around, dont think it ever sinks in. Sending big hugs
