Prakanong Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 In the UK GBH with INTENT can get up to life but is more likely to get an asbo and 20 minutes community service. only motoring offences and non payment of library fines by pensioners get custodial sentences these days We now have more in custody than ever before though! Really though I would have thought GBH with Intent would get a straight up custodial - it certainly did 20 years ago unless there were extremely mitigating circumstances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would definitely be facing a custodial sentence if you were convicted of this in the UK. In fact most GBH with intents would be facing a custodial.

glenbat Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 We now have more in custody than ever before though! I think the majority of those are economic migrants who've mown down some innocent child whilst driving uninsured and without a license. They're filling up the jails serving the 4 months or whatever they got Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
