obviously using a bottle for defence wasn't wise but he'd have been scared and an attempted murder sentence is unfair for a bad decision made in that situation.
The more people say how steep the charge was the more I get pissed off. I'm not the greatest legal mind and have never been in trouble with the police so I don't understand how all this has happened. I'm led to believe the correct term is gross miscarriage of justice, emphasis on the gross.
I just feel proper helpless.
All I can do is follow all the advice I have been given and try and keep his mind off his stretch as best I can. I don't even know if that's possible but i've got to try!
the authorities are a bitch, it's life :/
best of luck to you and your mate.
