2 Answers
Hi
So here's the story,,
A friend of mine went to her boyfriend of a few months house to split up with him. He's freaked out and dragged her by the hair down the stairs and thrown her the last part. He's then dragged her by her legs(1 of which is now broken) into the street. The police were called and he was arrested and as far as i know been charged with gbh. He's trying to say she fell.
My friends leg was smashed really badly and shes had plates and pins put in. She has to have a cage to hold the bone together fitted for a couple of months and will be on crutches for quite a few months after. Not to mention a scar practically the length of her lower leg.
What sort of punishment is likely to be given to this degenerate if he's found guilty?
thanks xx

The following sentences refer to an adult first time offender convicted after a trial. Previous offences (particularly for violence) can push the sentencing higher. An early guilty plea can see a sentence cut by one third:
The 'starting point' sentence for the most basic of GBH offences (i.e. where no weapon was used, where there was no pre-meditation and where the victim's injuries were not 'particularly grave') is 24 weeks imprisonment, with judges expected to pass an actual sentence ranging from a 'high level' community order up to 36 weeks imprisonment.
Where the victim's injuries are regarded by the court as 'particularly grave' (but the other circumstances are unchanged) the 'starting point' is 18 months, with judges expected to pass a sentence between 12 months and 3 years.
The actual time spent in prison is normally half of the nominal sentence.
