Description

You are the judge presiding over the sentencing of Daisy Collingwood, who stands before the Court having entered a guilty plea for the offence of Actual Bodily Harm. You have given consideration to a custodial sentence and have, therefore, requested a Pre-Sentence Report from Probation (extract below).

Your task is to provide sentencing remarks and a clear sentencing rationale. This should take into account the following:

● You must consider aggravating and mitigating features of the case paying attention to Daisy’s circumstances and the wider-context of the issues associated with her case

● Your sentencing rationale must draw upon the philosophies of punishment that are relevant to sentencing in this case to demonstrate your understanding and application to the question

● Your arguments must be underpinned by academic literature

Additional Guidance

● Use of first person is permissible in this assignment. You may wish to consider using both first and third person as you draw upon literature to develop your rationale.

● The rationale should be written as a standard essay. Remember to ensure that you have a clear structure to your work.

● Avoid quoting/describing large sections of the case study within your essay in order to preserve your word count

● Your essay must be fully referenced in accordance with APA 6th edition
