Hi everyone...
I understand how no one can predict what will happen in court, but I am curious to hear what some people may suggest would happen in this scenario.
A 'woman' has been charged for assault on 3 prior occasions, none resulting in a conviction recorded and the last resulting a section 10 good behaviour for 1 year. During that year the woman assaults another person by throwing a glass at them in a public area (cctv footage given), an application for an AVO is pending and another assault charge against her.
This person is not an Australian citizen but holds permeant residency.
This person has a newborn child.
In the past 2 occasions each victim was in close proximity to his/her children and the offender did not care.
I have put woman in inverted commas as I am curious to know if people who think the penalties would differ if it were a man who was the perpetrator.
