    That’s really unusual because GoVia usually settle out of court (costs them less) and if not, only charge for the offence where the evader was caught red-handed. Loads of examples of that on rail forums, even for repeat offenders. Multiple prosecution on that scale is rare.

      Maybe they’ve decided to go the shoplifting route? Wait until they collect a ton of offences and then nail you to the wall once they have enough for serious charges
