I have recently been charged with section 39 assualt
After a night out me and 2 of my mates (who are male and black in race) were walking home. We saw two of our mates from university (who are female and white in race). Who tagged along with us!
These 2 girls that were walking with us were far behind so I couldn’t really see what was going on. A few minutes after we walked past these 2 guys the girls run up to me in disgust, saying you wouldn’t believe how racist those 2 guys are. She stated one of the guy’s flicked his cigarette at her and was saying things like you wh*re what are you doing with them fu**ing ni**ers and so on..
I then walked back to these two guys (this is where I know I went wrong) to find out what they have against black people. When I approached the guy’s one of them immediately started racially abusing me. One of the guys I was with seen this and ran down to see what was going on..
I continued to ask these guys what they had against black people, then all of a sudden one of them punched me and the other guy rugby tackled my mate to the floor then we started fighting.
My other mate who was trying to get a taxi runs down and tries pushing the guy of my other mate but he attacks him as well.
We ended up beating these two guys up and then the police arrived!
These two guys knowing that they were wrong wouldn’t press charges or disclose any information about them and where let off.
We where first charged with affray but those charges have been dropped due to the fact that the other guys weren’t arrested.
Now we are all getting charged for two counts of assault by beating two unknown persons.
There is apparently no CCTV evidence and no victims. The only evidence they have got is said to be a witness.
This is my first offence and I was wondering if we have a good chance of winning this case in court?
And if we don’t what to expect?
Thanks
