As New Judge has told you, if she is convicted of S18 it is a virtual certain prison sentence. It MAY ( just may) be possible to get an agreement that if she pleads guilty to the less serious S20 the S18 will be dropped. She HAS to get a solicitor on this urgently. But do not get too hopeful , knife crime is viewed very seriously by the courts.
