Section 4 Public Order.
Hello, I'm in court soon for section 4 Public Order, but it's likely the CPS will reject my guilty plea, even though it is they who reduced it from assault, since the Police couldn't decide what to charge me with. The Victim has also decided not to press the matter any further, but the CPS already had the case passed to them and they are continuing with it.
Basically 1 witnesses states that I hit the victim with a pool cue.. and the other with an umbrella.
1 States I that I then punched him in the face 10-15 times. The other didn't mention any punching.
The victim states that I was trying and attempting to hit him, and only managed to punch him in the back of the head area. And had a tiny bruise there, and a cut finger.
The CCTV shows me doing nether of the above, and only pushing the guy, spitting, and trying to trip him over.
1 witness who is a friend of the victim spoke to the victim before he was questioned by the police. The over witness statement was taken 21 days after the incident.
I have one previous conviction from 10 years ago for criminal damage, for which I got a 6month conditional discharge.
Basically I'm I going to prison? I'm going to plead guilty either way, since if the CCTV evidence is being ignored there's nothing I can do. I wasn't questioned in my interview about hit anyone with a pool cue. The officer questioning says he didn't see me doing that, hence no questions about it.
So soap or what?
