“I didn’t want blood, I didn’t want a huge long sentence. It’s not about that,” she said. However, with a string of driving offences behind him, the sentence failed to reflect that Brophy’s adult life was characterised by careless driving, Jones said. “Why did he receive 2½ years when his whole history is leading up to it?”

Jake s children are struggling to come to terms with the loss of their father. Jake, who lived with her, was a protector, Jones said. He looked after people, and he loved his three children.
