His hearing was today via video link he pleaded guilty to be sentenced on Thursday stress levels gone up again,like a never ending nightmare I know we can't think about the length of time he may serve either way it's awful.

Hi,

That seems incredibly fast for sentencing. Have any of you spoken to his solicitor?
Sending love and strength xxx

I'm not surprised your anxiety is sky high. It's all happened so quickly and with such limited information available to you. Please look after yourself as you're probably still in shock and do seek help from professionals if you haven't already done so. I'll be keeping you in my thoughts on Thursday and am sending you a big hug.

Thanks everyone it's another step in the horrible process,he has resigned to the fact that he is going to face a custodial sentence his OH was horrified as the charges were read out which was intent to meet a minor even though it was a police sting so a real child was not involved but it doesn't make it better the judge said it was a serious offence Thursday is going to very difficult as every other day for the rest of our lives especially his OH and his mum.
