Plea Hearing Tomorrow
Notifications OFF
Hi everyone, I’ve been on this forum 2.5 years, it’s sad to see so many new people everyday. So tomorrow my partner finally goes to his plea hearing. He got the knock over 2.5 years ago and his second interview was 6 months ago! So yeah only just got charged a couple of weeks ago, ridiculous really that he’s had to wait so long. I’ve stayed with him and yes at times it’s been incredibly hard and I’ve really struggled with what he’s done and I feel a lot of shame ( possession of iioc all cats, no communication or distribution). I’ve had many rants at him over this time in limbo but we’ve also carried on as normal and I will be at the plea hearing and sentencing. I’m petrified for tomorrow, all the fears are surfacing about the media, going to crown and my biggest fear is prison. I hope wherever everyone is on the journey you are coping ok
Just wanted to wish you all the best for tomorrow. I am keeping everything crossed for you that the judge is fair and the media are scarce.
Your situation is very similar to mine other than we are only 1.5 years into it, and still waiting second interview. I am terrified of it all getting into the media because my OH has spent 18 months building himself back up post knock, and I am so scared of it all coming crumbling down around us again.
Sending huge virtual hugs, we will all be with you in spirit tomorrow. At least after tomorrow you can move on and won't have it still hanging over you. Crikey 2.5 years, that is disgusting! Our justice system is in tatters.

Yeah the justice system is a mess!. For us to wait this long is a sentence in its self!. I'm hoping no media at the plea hearing but you just don't know. It would be devastating to us if it did go in the papers. We've stayed together and will do when this is over. I have children but they are adults now ( only just!). My big fear is how they word stuff in the papers. We all know they throw around the P word without actually having no knowledge of the P word and what th condition is. I'm also so worried about prison as he is th main breadwinner, I work but I couldn't cope on my own
Blue sky, yeah plea is guilty or not guilty so probably in and out in 5 minutes. Yeah I'm hoping no media as he hasn't been sentenced yet so not much to report on but reporters are at courts all the time I presume? And if it pings an interest. We could do with a massive case at the same time so they don't notice us!
I hope tomorrow is as easy for you as possible.
I think it's a disgraceful that it has taken this long. It makes me realise how lucky we were that it was just 7 months from knock to sentencing.
I'll be think of you tomorrow x

It is disgraceful we've waited so long. It's like a sentence in itself!. I'm hoping that him waiting 2 and a half years goes in his favour a bit. He's worked full time since the knock ( he did aswell before the knock and had only a few days off after his first arrest). I'm also glad my children are over 18 now as I don't think I could handle the SS intrusion too. I have no respect for them anyway and reading all the posts on here about how incompetent they are I'm glad I'm not involved with them
Thinking of you for tomorrow xxx

Thank you ladies. I've been awake since about 4.30, feel very sick this morning. Don't know how I'm going to cope when it goes to crown court. I'm keeping everything crossed that the press don't report it, I'm so worried
