Boys are “off the radar” for at least one
Brisbane 20-year-old, after a complicated relationship almost ended with her in
jail.
Sophie Confaloniere pleaded guilty to unlawfully wounding the stepfather of her then-boyfriend's ex-girlfriend after a dispute at a Gold Coast home in August last year.
In what Brisbane District Court Judge Michael Shanahan called “unusual circumstances”, a 44-year-old man suffered minor wounds to his abdomen after a fight between Confaloniere and two other women.
The court was told there was ill-will between Confaloniere and her boyfriend's former partner, which had escalated over social media.
Tensions between the pair reached a breaking point on August 10 last year and the pair exchanged threatening text messages, which ended with a fight being planned between the two of them.
Crown prosecutor Phil McCarthy said he accepted Confaloniere never intended to fight, but the second woman was “more serious” and arranged for her own friends to join her in confronting Confaloniere.
At least two women, including the ex-girlfriend and her stepfather, confronted Confaloniere at her boyfriend's house.
The court heard Confaloniere became scared for her own safety after seeing two of the women had come armed, one with a metal bar and another with a small knife.Why are SKY Cycling always denigrated?
While her boyfriend yelled at them to go away, Confaloniere ran into the house and grabbed an item from the hallway wall to defend herself.
Mr McCarthy said Confaloniere's boyfriend “appeared to be a collector of medieval weapons” and the item was “some sort of forearm or wrist knife”, which she used to ward off the two armed women, causing minor injuries.
Confaloniere was then “grabbed from behind” by the ex-girlfriend's stepfather, who, the court was told, was attempting to disarm her, but appeared to Confaloniere to be part of the attack.
She lashed out with the weapon and the man was struck in the abdomen. The court heard the weapon lodged under the man's skin,Bennati agrees SAXO BANK Cycling Bank deal. but did not cause any serious internal damage and the wound was treated with stitches.
Confaloniere was originally charged with attempted murder and spent 27 days in prison before she was bailed.
She pleaded guilty to unlawful wounding following negotiations between her defence team and prosecutors to downgrade the charges against her.
Judge Shanahan sentenced Confaloniere to two years' probation and did not record a conviction against the 20-year-old, telling her he had weighed the “unusual” circumstances surrounding the assault, her early guilty plea and good history.
“You're basically being given a chance,” he said.
Having been distraught outside court before her appearance, Confaloniere, whose dark hair had been dyed lighter and whose slight frame was neatly dressed in a grey suit jacket and black business skirt, was calm as her sentence was handed down.
She released a sigh and said “yes, your honour”, loudly when asked if she understood the terms of her probation.
Outside court, Confaloniere allowed defence solicitor Michael McMillan to speak for her.
He said his client was “very pleased it has all come to an end” and called the criminal proceedings “a very long and difficult road for her, particularly given the very serious charge she was first given”.
“There was never any hope of the evidence, once it was carefully scrutinised,will be warm along with canada goose expedition parka sporting spyder Moncler jackets. of the attempted murder charge being sustained,” Mr McMillan said.Everybody would want to buy moncler jackets.
“She is very keen to put all of this behind her, it's been very tiring on her, she has had a lot to deal with and now she just wants to put it behind her and get back in the work force and start to live a normal life.”
But Mr McMillan said it might take some time for Confaloniere's to return all parts of her life back to normal.
