I don't tend to post much but am always reading everyone's story. I just felt I wanted to share my story .... I am here because of my son - had the knock November 23 with devices taken. Bail extended 3 times. My son lost his job, partner and friends and has literally been living in limbo since. He has completed the programme through LFF and has a therapist each month. Today he received a call from the OIC stating only 2 images found (still 2 too many) and would be recommending this file is closed NFA . This is something I could have only hoped for - the last 9 months have been a living nightmare - I told no-one only close family have known. I suppose what I'm saying is I won't believe it until he has that NFA letter in front of him. I just want to say how much support and comfort this forum has given me - this is a journey I'll never forget and wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. Sending love and strength to all.

It's such horrible place to be in limbo too. For everyone. I hope you do get something official soon to confirm NFA so you can at least move on from this, hopefully get back to some form of normal with rehabilitation & growth. I know offenders must be punished because what they have done is wrong but when it happens to your family, it feels like the waiting part is punishment too!

Oh Elliott, I am so so happy for you and your son, I use to dream and pray that my son would have a NFA but sadly that wasn't to be. On the other hand I'm so sorry that you've both been through this terrible journey. My wish for you and your son now is that you can start recovering from the awful trauma and rebuilding your lives. Thank you for sharing your news with us.

So pleased to hear your news. I guess this is something we all hope for. Here's hoping for a speedy letter of confirmation. Onwards and upwards x
