It is vitally important that people understand the potentially lifelong implications of a criminal conviction. I can foresee that this will result in people pleading Guilty (without seeking legal advice) for offences that they are not Guilty in law for without realising that once the Guilty plea is entered it is incredibly difficult to re open a case for a mistaken Guilty Plea. A clear example why it is always vitally important to seek the right legal advice where needed.
