ABH and a police caution.
My son has been cautioned for ABH and I am trying to get the caution expunged for many reasons not least because he was defending himself. The 'victim' had no visible injury and sought no medical attention, I can't find a definitive definition of ABH - is there one? Also a caution stays on record until you are 100 years old and can stop you working in all kinds of jobs (my son lost his job instantly), How many people are aware of this or have been led to believe it is the easy option?

This was reference to a guy trashing a pub and since the landlady only called police but didn't decide to fill a statement out or press for charges even though the offender admitted it no caution could be given.
Domestics are high priority and self defense is an admittance of assault, so now it will be justified in the mags (should have just gone "no comment"). Im pretty sure there has been some tinkering going on with the pol and CPS for them to push for a charge especially if your son is known to the pol.
Let us know how it goes im fairly certain he will win if there isn't even a statement from the victim.
