We were really happy with the sentences. It was more than I was expecting.“I’m just sad that the other one isn’t here to get her comeuppance.

But she’ll get it in March.“We couldn’t have wished for a better outcome. The whole thing has been absolutely fabulous.“I know it might not look like it.

But I am over the moon. I couldn’t have asked for anything better.“It’s not going to bring Caroline back.“But it’s justice for her.
