Hi, my 18 year old son was arrested last year(November) for affray, I'm not excusing it but at the time he was being seen by Health in Mind and had been diagnosed as suffering with depression and anxiety.He was released without charge on bail until February when he was told that the cps had decieded to prosecute, following a hearing at a magistrates court it was deemed the case needed to go to crown court, he has pled guilty, no one following the incident required medical attention although the victim did suffer scratches and bruises, prior to this he has never been arrested before, he has excellent character references, he has now turned his live around and is working full time, two other people who both have previous convictions are also being sentenced that day, it is alleged that one of these kicked the victim in the head and it was caught on cctv, when we went to see the probation officer for pre sentence report she outlined all the possible outcomes, one of which is an immediate custodial sentence, has anyone any experience of this and know what the chances are of this, thanks in advance.
