For anyone that can remember the thread I posted last year entitled "fucking druggies" or something like that, where I told how me and my little sis were subject to an attempted robbery by a man and a woman dragging her 2 year old girl behind her in a pushchair, I figured I would provide an update.
He pleaded guilty to assault with intent to rob, or something like that and was sentenced to 18 months in prison. On top of that he had another crime he was tried for and he pleaded guilty to, for which he pleaded guilty also, receiving another 12 months consecutively. Thats quite unusual, because usually, multiple sentences run concurrently, so in effect they only end up doing the length of time for the longest sentence.
The woman was charged with threatening behaviour and pleaded not guilty. We both had to go to Court and give evidence because of this but the Court found her guilty just the same. She will be sentenced next week.
I doubt very much that her sentence will be anything more than a slap on the wrist, but I feel happy that at least these fuckers have been held to account.
