[Aika]

She is going to copy and paste another case - to cover herself. Nel has to appeal the verdict no matter what.

The suspense has me on the edge of my seat. Could the Judge please, pretty please just get on with it?

THREE years suspended sentence????????

 

[jay-jay]

She's comparing the remorse of this other case with OP's ... I can't believe that she really buys OP's 'remorse' .. I'm sure he is remorseful, but for quite different reasons!

 

[delilah]

FFS get on with it.

 

[Sherbert]

3 years suspended completely...sorry...this was Forster...

 

[zwiebel]

I thought she was giving HER judgement now, but it's still case law....

 

[PrimeSuspect]

Did she just say the loss of a life is 'almost' always serious?

YES, she did.

 

[OZe]

This is sounding bad. Three years fully suspended. Surely not!

 

[alioop]
