im 18 yr old qustralian charged with Grevious Bodily Harm
long story short my younger brother (15yrs) was in an altercation with this 21yr old i heard all the commotion from down the street & went to check it out.
when i got there i see this man about to hit my brother in the head with a cricket bat thats when I struck the guy to the head with my beer bottel.
once he dropped the bat I continued to hit him, until i was pulled of him then my brother hit him twice and as a result the guy had a fractured skull and was in Intensive care unit for like 4 days.
Im not braging about this and do feel bad for what happend, i just want to know what could happen to me & try and prepare mainly for my girlfreind's sake.
I had just turned 18 when it hapend, im almost 19 now. no criminal history. my solictior thinks il serve 6-12 months jail... and i was hoping i might get susppended sentance or something :(

suspended sentance for putting a guy in intensive care?
what would you have wanted for the guy if he'd put your brother in intensive care? bet you wouldnt be happy with a suspended.
You went over holding a bottle, then continued to hit the guy (fracturing his skull) after he went down!
Think about it and youll undertsnad why your solicitor is telling you youre looking at a prison sentance..
ps. no criminal history doesnt mean a thing, you couldve killed the guy!

My mum knew a parole officer and once asked if someone hurt a family member(namely one of her children) and she then attacked then, would she still go to prison.
The parole actually said probably not!
They are more lenient on the person, especially as no previous convictions, as the circumstances were uncontrollable and you reacted to something they had done.
In a way you are in a different frame of mind-for some people a mental state-as you witnessed a crime on someone you love.
I think many people would defend a family member, so like I say hopefully the jury and judge will go softly on you.
The solicitor has to tell you the worst fate also. It is best to go in prepared that you may go to prison, as you still may, but if you don't, then I'll doubt you'll care what the solicitor said anyway!
Good luck
