Judge (Steven Blake)

An unnamed Judge presided over the plea hearing of Dan Spencer in August 2023. Dan pleaded 'Guilty' to grievous bodily harm after punching Lloyd Sawyer and the judge ruled that Dan should released on bail until the sentencing dated on 17th August. During the sentencing, after Dan's charge had been increased to manslaughter after Lloyd died from his injuries in hospital, the judge took into account that Dan showed remorse for his actions and has no previous criminal record, but listed the threatening voicemail Dan left for Lloyd, left Lloyd lying in the road instead of helping him and the threat Dan made to Lloyd's wife Julie Sawyer. Overall, the judge considered Dan's actions were a high culpability A offence with Category 1 harm, and imposed a sentence of 8 years imprisonment.
