froodleThat was horrible.
No application for bail.
A straight up guilty plea and straight to sentencing on June 3rd.
The judge wanted a social enquiry report.
Because of his previous conviction we can't submit any supporting statements that speak to his good character because legally speaking he doesn't *have* good character and it can lead to the judge throwing the whole statement out.
We had Deputy High Bailiff Gough doing the court diary and I thought that was okay, but he's gonna be tried by Deemster Montgomery who is a fucking piece of shit. This is the judge who gave a seventeen year old with an amount cannabis that was too small to weigh a custodial sentence and he gave William six years for cannabis plants, but when it came to sentence a guy with so many child.porn images on his computer that we had to borrow police from the mainland to help process it all as the IoM police didn't have the manpower he only have him eight years, like cannabis is 3/4th as bad as a department-overwhelming amount of child.porn, so fuck that guy FOREVER
I had the morning off and thought I would be okay to come home, have a cry and go back to work in the afternoon but my brain is in fucking pieces so I called in.
His advocate said with the weight they found he's looking at 14 years as a starting point, with a third doctor the initial guilty plea, but that's the lowest end of the sentence and she thinks it'll be higher.
He's already gone under treatment at the methadone clinic but it's so early in his treatment i guess the doses are quite high? Because he looked like he was high. He was bolshy and full of.bluster at the judge and I wanted to say, william,stop it, it won't help, but also i don't know what would help, if anything.
It's all gone so wrong. I cant wrap my head around it. My chest hurts, literally hurts and I feel like I can't breathe. My parents were.talking to me and I couldn't take it in, I felt like I was hearing them underwater. I asked Hayley to tell me about their new dog but I don't know if she did and now I can't remember if I really asked her or just thought about it.
I don't understand what's happened. I keep trying to fix it in my head and it slips out of my mind, like I'm grabbing at fish in a stream.
I don't understand. I thought I was smart, or smarter than this, but I don't understand. I don't understand anything.
