The 9-year starting point for incest was within the appropriate sentencing range and not manifestly excessive, but the judge should have given greater credit for the applicant's early guilty pleas when applying the totality principle; accordingly the 12-month sentence for indecent assault should run concurrently rather than consecutively, reducing the aggregate term from 10 to 9 years.
