If ever there was a shining example of think before you do. Just watched this for some reason, what an incredibly sad story but such a strong couple.

Will have to steel myself to watch that later .. 😐
What a bloody tragedy.
That little scrote should have a warning tattooed on his forehead.
Man that's gutting.
3 years.
Man that's gutting.3 years.
I've become one of those folk who complain about sentencing.
What an incredibly moving story, very well told.
That would bring a tear to even the most glassy of eyes.
As for the little scrote, I'd like to think that he deeply regrets that one moment of violence and has learned a lesson. It will never undo the damage he's caused though.
Ps that's not a minor, I'd be crying like a kid if I did that to myself. He's got balls of steel
A tough watch that. 3 years is not enough.
Bloody marvellous.
I'm a neuro rehab coach and work with people like Jamie every day.
We've just sent a 23 year old home who was knocked off his bike in central Manchester.
It'll be a good few years before he can ride a bike again, but he's got the right attitude and hugely supportive mates and family, which makes an amazing difference.
I went to college with a lad that had killed a guy in a one punch , self defence, incident.
I never knew him before but it had clearly affected him, he was one on the quietest, most reflective guys i've ever met.
Tragic 🙁 bloody hormonal boys
Similar thing happened to one of my mates a few years ago.. he's just a shell of his former self. Needs 24hr care. Tragic.
