Why Not Just Re-Use The Other Reports..?

Ian Cliff, representing Lee, told the court that he had been remanded in custody since he was arrested in January.

He also told the court that Lee was on his “third strike” having committed drugs crimes before the incident.

Then he's going d...

Oh.

Mr Cliff asked Judge Samantha Leigh (Ed: *groans*) to delay the sentencing for six weeks to allow for a report to be prepared into Lee’s situation.

What's another report going to tell her that the others didn't?

Judge Leigh agreed to adjourn the sentencing hearing until the week commencing March 23 at the same court.

By which time, when she eventually gets around to passing a sentence, it'll probably have to take into account the time on remand, and he'll walk.

Straight back to his spot to deal drugs again.
