Adult strategy

Mike Stanton

hi all,

not sure if this is the best place. Perhaps we need a category for campaigns. But now the government has published the statutory guidance for implementing the Adult Autism Strategy it would be good to share our experience of implementation around the country. In Cumbria we have a Cumbria Autism Partnership Board with NAS representation that is holding forums around the county to get participation from adults and carers. Nothing has happened yet. I will keep you posted.

  • One punch does not normally kill someone and there have been cases of the Police killing someone with one blow.   In the case of the Autistic victim.  The Killers defence would have been that he did not intend to kill the victim.   As the killer had a record of crime and the remarks his family made remarks showing that they are unrepentent.

    I would have thought a longer sentence than four years but not life.

    It remains to be seen whether the sentence will be sent to the Court of Appeal for an increase of sentence.

    One bullet is very likely to kill someone so I should not think it would make much difference to the trial if one bullet or five bullets were used but hitting people is different.
