g.b.h

[ethel41]

hello my boyfriend has been charged with G.B.H with intent however this incident was involving a family member. he threw a pan of water that was being used for cooking this has been proved. the water was not scalding no permanent scaring. the individual involved is a alcaholic. the accused has been in past on an affray charge. what is the minimum sentance for this charge. he has been seen by a psyciatrist that has said he is not a danger to public.

I think GBH is usually 3-6 years, with intent could increase that.

The fact that the water wasnt scalding cant make a difference surely? or did he check the temp before throwing it over the victim?

is your boyfriend guilty of committing the crime?
do the crime, then face the time.

Do you really want somebody who would do that as a boyfriend? He might do it to you one day.
