The fact she has been banned 5 times to me suggests a suspended sentence is not appropriate as she has no regard for the law.

But, when that struggle has the potential to hurt and kill others, something needs to be done, and I don't think a suspended sentence and fine that she won't pay are it. Counselling and therapy can be done in conjunction with a spell inside, right? Like, maybe hearing the door shut behind her will be the bottom she needs to hit to surface again. I dunno, don't mean to sound like an uncaring bastard for those with addiction problems.I think the stuff going on with Katie Price is a life spiralling out of control rather than a person thinking they are above the law.

Her hands were tied?!? Now thats what I call Dangerous Driving!davyK wrote:There is a technical reason why she isn't in jail and it has nothing to do with being a carer. The judge said her hands were tied and she should really go to jail.

Curious whether Andy could say if this is actually a normal sentence for this kind of thing. Lost her license multiple times, drove whilst on coke, alcohol and uninsured, owes the court several thousand pounds already from previous. I don't mind Katie Price tbh but after this I can't give her any benefit of doubt anymore. Utterly shameful.
