Hi . Sorry you find yourself in this horrible place .



my person was charged with possession and distribution. Over 2 thousand images and videos of all categories.



He was given suspended sentence , 5 years on SOR and many conditions with regards contact with under 18 etc .



I'm very glad to say no media coverage in our case with I was so thankful for .

Hi DevestatedWife

That is incredible that they got that outcome because on another day it could have been much worse, especially the fact that it is ALL categories and that amount would usually get them behind bars

Either the prisons are full or the judge was in a forgiving mood.. xx

Wow! My ex was sentenced to 3 years in prison for the same offences as your person but for about a third of the number of images and no moving images. And it was in the media. I appreciate setencing is complicated and side of it depends on whether you end up with a Legal Aid Solicitor and a brutal judge on the day.

Hi

We're still waiting for Crown Court and the sentencing. The uncertainty of when is really starting to get to me. I don't mind if it's months from now but if I could just have a general time frame that would help with this awful anxiety. I've not looked at the charges as I'm not sure I can handle it right now. I know its bad...a prison sentence is definitely on the table. He's worked hard on himself and he's done all he can, etc. Who knows what will happen.
