Basically its a GBH charge, thers two sections to it section 18 or 20.

 

Section 18 is the worst and carries a maximum sentence of life, wheras section 20 is 5 years. Section 18 the prosecution need to prove that you intended to cause the person bodily harm wheras section 20 they only need to show you acted recklessly.

 

Both sections define assault as the whole skin bein broken, and more than a scratch. Thing is a drop of blood would be suffiecient.

Cheers :)

 

From 3 punches he cracked his skull around his head, broke his jaw in two places and fractured his eye-socket :eek:

Police have said they can 65% identify him on the CCTV footage they have and they've been putting out plea's for witness's in the local paper, i thought, that if their doing that....they aint got much of a case??

Maybe written like that it would be understandable. I was assuming the way Aaron wrote it that his mate put some shop windows through then battered this lad ?( .
