A P P E A L B O O K E N D O R S E M E N T
1The appellant alleges no error in principle. Given the many aggravating factors, we cannot say that the sentence though lengthy was manifestly unreasonable.
2The fresh evidence provides no basis for us to interfere with the sentence.
3Leave to appeal sentence granted but the appeal is dismissed.
