Victim impact statement

Victim impact statement

18.

V provided a victim impact statement that addressed the impact of all the offending against her without distinguishing between the effect of the abuse by individual defendants. Viewed overall, it indicated profound psychological damage. Given the very different circumstances of the offender's conduct when compared with that of the other two defendants, it is not possible to form any reliable assessment about whether or to what extent his conduct contributed to the overall impact of what was inflicted on her.

Antecedents

19.

The offender is 36 now. He was 21 at the time of the offence. He has no previous convictions but has one caution for the possession of cocaine in August 2018.
