Any Thoughts On The Likely Outcome?
I'm wondering if someone with knowledge of the legal system may be able to provide me with the likely outcome to the following situation.
My son (Aged 16, no previous convictions) and another (Aged 16, with twenty two previous convictions) stole mine and my wifes car on Friday night, went off on a joyride, got chased by the police and crashed it into a brick wall and have written it off. My son basically provided the keys and was a passenger in the vehicle. He was arrested and is currently on bail. It is looking very likely that he will be charged with TWOC (taking without owners consent). The other lad has had the book thrown at him.
I'm trying to get some guidance on what the likely sentence will be for my son.

I hope he really gets the book thrown at him. He and his friend recklessly endangered the lives of everybody on the road. He could have killed or maimed anybody. To all those saying "Ohh how harsh" ... how would you feel if he had killed or mained somebody you loved? Hmm? Still think I'm being harsh.
