I was wondering how she was, you are a good friend to her hun.

I hope he gets a custodial which will give her a bit of peace of mind but it's not likely so tell her to keep in touch with Womens Aid as they will advise her what she can do to keep herself safe x

thanks for all your replies......she cried today at work when she found out....she feels responsible etc....but we've all told her that she's done nothing wrong.....and he needs help.....and that if it had carried on it could have been alot worse....

veggieeeeee.....she's still in touch with womens aid....one of the many helpful suggestions i passed on.... Thumbs Up

Well done to her, tell her not to worry if it gets referred to crown, it will probably mean they want to give a custodial longer than 12 months.

P.S. I'm not respecting the stick anymore, I have a much abusive job now. Eeker


lady j!!!!.......what do you do now????....... Eeker


I'm a traffic warden now. The more abuse I get, the more I love it. Devil

Awww.. I'm so pleased!! This is such a difficult issue... I know because I've been stalked and felt responsible when my ex (and father of my child) called me up on several occasions just about to commit suicide because I'd broken up with him. There weren't any threats to kill though. I'm really glad this has been taken seriously. Well done to you Spongebob for being such a good friend. Smiler

he might not go to prison darlo..we don't know yet....he may end up with community service or a suspended sentence or something.....


In all honesty, I can't see him getting a custodial sentence. As you suggest, I think it'll be either a community order (not unpaid work I don't think) or a suspended sentence; unless there is a pattern of this type of offending and he is deemed a risk to the public - which I just don't see.

Oh right Smiler, well just as long as he's told to stay away and gets punishment for his actions.

Oh my goodness - I've given the wrong impression! He's a w@nker who pisses me off with his bullsh!te but I'm actually very happy now. I'm in a relationship with a lovely guy, my daughter's very happy, everything's all good but he's the one thing I would eliminate from my life if I could (or had the guts Laugh)
