I'm going to tell you a (true) story about the Criminal Justice System.
In May 2016, 2 young men went out with their friends for a night out. They had a pleasant evening, a few drinks (not too many) and were on their way home when they came across a man who had had too many.
There was a fight, and the other man suffered a serious head injury. Thankfully he survived but could not recall the incident / how he had been injured.
An investigation started: both young men were interviewed and said that they had been attacked and were defending themsleves.
