This sounds so punx, but my boyfriend is charged GBH for assault on a British Military officer. He was at an award ceremony for an overseas program he was doing with his school and this guy and him got into it (other guys fault but Mark threw the first punch). Mark had no idea at the time the guy was military but since he is, it's a federal offense and a huge deal. It's a long story and there's still a lot of pieces missing for me that I don't understand. The court system is so different over there. The maximum sentence for his crime is 5 years, but I don't see how he'd get that much time for a case that's been pending for this long with no real action happening. Not to mention Mark hasn't gotten in any trouble since then and England didn't decide to extradite him. Ughhh, so stressful.
