Quick escape
Our client was able to receive a favourable outcome for four different charges within the Commonwealth jurisdiction. These include sexual intercourse with a child outside Australia, sexual activity (other than sexual intercourse) outside Australia, using a carriage service for sexual activity with person under 16 years of age and possessing or controlling child abuse material obtained or accessed using a carriage service.
The maximum sentence for such charges, if served concurrently, could potentially lead to a sentence of up to 25 years imprisonment.
Our client was 26 years old with no priors who had the support of his family. Thanks to our legal team’s strong submissions in support of mitigation, and the early guilty plea, we were able to achieve an outcome that meant our client was sentenced to four years imprisonment and a non-parole period of 18 months. The minimum sentence for these charges was seven years and six months of imprisonment, with a non-parole period of five years imprisonment.
