Hall had to be sentenced in line with sentencing guidelines at the time his crimes were committed, which was prior to the 2003 Sexual Offences Act. Had he committed them after 2003 he'd almost certainly have got a longer sentence."(Stuart) Hall is serving a 30-month jail term after he pleaded guilty to indecently assaulting 13 other girls, one as young as nine."
Looks very harsh on AJ.
Edit - I'm told that it's only the maximum sentence at the time that applies and not the range. So he couldn't be given more than he would have got if he'd been sentenced before the latest guidelines came into force.
