A friend of mine who I've known for around 8 years now, used to ride trials, does bmx now, was sentenced last week for 15 months for doing graffiti.
Was quite lucky, at one point he mentioend it could of been upto 3 years. Think hes in a mid level security prison, half of the sentence is inside.
Going to write to him soon, see how he's holding up, one of the worst things was how long it took to sentence him, went to court about 5 tmes, had to put his life on hold for a year basicially.
That was a good read- Sounds horrible!!
