Hi Galaxy, I'm sorry you find yourself here but you've done the right thing in reaching out. I'm here because my son offended in a similar way to your person. We're now out the other side having gone through the whole journey from arrest to sentencing. My son received a 2 year suspended sentence with 10 years on the sex offenders register (SOR) and 10 years sexual harm prevention order (SHPO).

The blunt answer to your question is yes there could be the possibility of prison but it is also very likely your person will serve their sentence in the community. This isn't going to happen quickly though so be prepared for a very long wait. In the meantime I would suggest contacting the stop it now help line to talk through your worries and fears if you haven't already done so and maybe also your GP.
