R v TREVOR TAYLOR (2005)

PUBLISHED January 25, 2005
SHARE

A sentence of seven years' detention in a young offender institution for possession of a Class A drug with intent to supply was manifestly excessive for a 20-year-old offender of previous good character who had pleaded guilty. A sentence of five years' detention was appropriate.
