I was told it was likely that I would be found guilty and sentenced to between 5 & 8 yrs unless I stood up and told what I knew.
I did actually think about taking my chances on the jury but my then girlfriend told me to wise up as I didn't owe the real culprits anything and it was them that had tried to set me up for the fall to get off theirselves and I ended standing up in the dock and told the truth and THEY all ended getting off on a technicality.

But they could have went down and it would have been down too me but I honestly don't think I would have lost any sleep over it.

I suppose it all depends on the circumstances at the time and what the end result could be for yourself
