A friend recently committed an ABH crime on their partner,well I say recently but it was July 8th. They are to be sentenced soon.

There are three independent witnesses, who saw the end of it and saw kicking, but it isn't sure where the victim was kicked. He was kicked couple of times.

Injuries are minor bruising and swelling, it's a Section 47 by the kicking on the floor not because of the injuries.

They have no previous and are extremely worried they're going to jail. Especially since they finished college shortly after the incident and did really well in their exams etc. They acted out of character.

What do you reckon will happen?

It's easy to say when your not on the receiving end!

I base my assumption on many years of experience in dealing with victims of domestic violence in my capacity as a member of the judiciary
