I don't know the answer, but this will bump your question back to the top.
criminal damage = anything up to 10 years
wounding by serious assault = life
i wouldnt be to bothered about the other 2 charges...
explain your predicaments to the court and hope for leniency
ps woodstreet google the law pages that will give you a good idea of the likely sentences...
Looking at your previous posts.........good luck.
I'm sorry for YOU, woodstreet, with your son putting you in this predicament at a time when it's your husband who needs your (and his) support.

This is not the same son as my previous posts This son as not been in trouble before
Sorry to read your post woodstreet and not being funny your husband needs your support more than your son.
I'm not sure how old your son is but you and your husband need his support and at times there needs to be a cut off time ! X
i wish you and all your family all the best.
Keep in touch and let us know how you all get on.
He's in trouble enough now, though - it's still you I feel sorry for.

My son is 29yrs old he is on medication for depression I just want to support everyone but finding it hard
Your 29 year old son should be supporting you, your husband and the rest of the family. He is a grown man.
..sorry to appear unsypathetic as you obviously have a lot on your plate without this, but his sentence imo wiill not be half enough.....he sounds like a right t....r.
How many other victims are going to have their lives blighted by him if he is not put away?
No idea what sort of sentence he'll get but if it's long enough he might..just might' get some help inside.

Sorry for ypur problems but not in the least sorry for him...:-((

If it were me I would Just concentrate on supporting you husband,a 29 year old should have known better, and let him sort it out himself and take the consequences he is a grown man.I sincerely hope that your husband gets better news at the hospital, it must be very hard for you trying to hold it all together, you dont deserve all this aggro.

Hello Commoner I know my son as done wrong but he was run off the road and wrongly so he reacted aggressively He works hard and doesn't drink .smoke or take drugs He is now taking anti-depressants and not feeling at all proud of the situation he is in so perhaps before you are so judgemental in your opinoin before you know the facts and refrain from your opioins I was asking for advice not your opinion on my son .
