Home and Away, Brax faces his worst nightmare when he is sentenced to 20 years in prison.

As his murder trial continues, Brax leaves his family shocked when he makes the decision to plead not guilty, despite there being no evidence to prove his innocence.

When the trial begins, Brax's lawyer is desperate to find some information that might discredit Sam as a witness. When Ash reveals that Dean attacked Sam and put him in hospital, his lawyer becomes hopeful he can use this to prove Sam had motive to kill Dean.

Brax's lawyer manages to obtain police and medical reports that prove the attack happened, so it looks as if things are looking up for Brax.

However in a shock twist, Sam tells the court that Dean owed Ash money, prompting the judge to grant the police a search warrant. Later, things take a dark turn when they find a duffle bag of money, which Ash had foolishly hid at Angelo's.

With the future looking increasingly bleak for Brax, the trial goes from bad to worse when a warrant is issued for Ash's arrest as an accessory to the murder.

Desperate to protect Ash, Brax confesses and is sentenced to 20 years in prison without parole, as Ricky is left devastated. How will Brax cope with life back in prison?
