It was awful - that's when he was assaulted and sexually assaulted by the arresting officer. He could have appealed. But that route carried so much potential risk and publicity. After a year of being bound over he got his 'good character' back. No stress. It was the best solution for him. It wasn't the best outcome for dealing with the officer, who may have many other victims. You can't win 'em all.
