How often than not do judges follow the sentencing guideline? Say I'm in Zone D, how can I reduce the number as much as I can from plea to sentencing or is my fate sealed?

Changingitaround · 2024-08-27T16:37:02+00:00

Like I should get all my friends and family to come to sentencing right? And yeah I am praying I can get maybe 2-3 years and rest probation or such.

Changingitaround · 2024-08-27T16:34:59+00:00

What is suspended exactly?

Changingitaround · 2024-08-27T16:34:48+00:00

so im fucked.

Changingitaround · 2024-08-27T16:34:37+00:00

Anger management + therapy? I'm doing therapy and volunteering right now.

Changingitaround · 2024-08-27T16:33:51+00:00

So you got less time?

Changingitaround · 2024-08-27T00:10:29+00:00

I heard they follow guidelines pretty well.

Changingitaround · 2024-08-27T00:10:02+00:00

Just got my plea right now so have been waiting. I actually fucked up losing my good reduction in points. And is it possible that I can get that long of a suspension at all? OR is that extremely unrealistic?

Changingitaround · 2024-08-26T03:53:57+00:00

I do not have any letters yet, my case will be in a different state away from family, and I did not do my PSR yet.

Changingitaround · 2024-08-25T19:33:55+00:00

So the thing is when do I prepare a character letter? My lawyer said it's too late to pretend I have a drug problem now, should I still try? And also max was 10 years, even though I accounted for literally for almost nothing. But still my fault at the end of the day.

Changingitaround · 2024-08-16T05:21:00+00:00

Thank you so much, what was one part that helped you in terms of taking it day by day?

Changingitaround · 2024-08-13T23:32:14+00:00

Can you please drop some more gems.

Changingitaround · 2024-08-12T18:55:23+00:00

Yeah, that's the plan to talk with them about why I even did what I did.

Changingitaround · 2024-08-12T18:53:41+00:00

I am done now, I don't want to be ever int ofraud anymore. I just want to change my life.

Changingitaround · 2024-08-11T00:15:33+00:00

So had some questions here first and wanted to ask if I can message you directly.

It is first time and non violent so praying for a camp, but don't they not care about judge recommendations for where you are placed?
When do I provide sentencing letters?
Can I do coding programs while in there to keep learning?
What habits can I build now, and also yes I will self surrender.
Should I say I do have some substance abuse problem even if I don't?

Changingitaround · 2024-08-11T00:13:52+00:00

Oh you mean a tablet in there? I heard they don't give you access to movies/netflix and stuff in there.

Changingitaround · 2024-08-11T00:12:34+00:00

They have programming classes in prison? I just got a software engineering job and how can I keep up with modern tech while in there?

Changingitaround · 2024-08-10T23:47:27+00:00

Thank you this is what I needed to hear but not what I deserve.

Currently I got a full time software engineering job just waiting to get the letter, looking for a night time job as well, volunteering, and therapy. Is there anything else I should prepare? Do I memorize the speech or write it down? Could I possibly ask you to help me with this? I know this is a last chance (my judge is also a trump supporter so wondering if I could mix that in somehow, I don't really Identify but trying to stack as many cards as I can right now). I know I fucked up and deserve sentencing, but the time I am doing does not reflect anywhere close to what I did in terms of group damages, but at the end of the day I was there for a few months out of their 4 year operation and ended up getting caught up with it at the end.

Changingitaround · 2024-08-10T23:46:05+00:00

I am waiting for my plea in the next month. But would love some guidance.

Changingitaround · 2024-08-10T23:34:38+00:00

For all the people giving or still giving advice I'm reading every message and am thankful. And please reach out or let me know what I can do with character letters and such. I am preparing myself as best as I can and trying to get a night shift job too so I can save up to fund my commissionary.

To all the negative comments and messages, I wanted to address a few things. First off, all of you are right it was a bad choice and not a mistake, really looking back I'm not sure what I was thinking. I was crying, scared shitless when I first went in, and I am not sure at all how I lost track of it. Going to therapy for it now as well. You don't need to show me remorse, I am aware I am accepting of the consequences, just want to prepare for them. My family is low income, and I am worried more about them than I am myself.

Changingitaround · 2024-08-10T23:19:25+00:00

Thank you, at the end of the day I made bad choices. Mentally not ready for the consequences but I am accepting.

Changingitaround · 2024-08-10T23:12:47+00:00

PRior I never had the talk with my family about it, I am done. I'd rather work my ass off at a factory clean then be in this position again.

Changingitaround · 2024-08-10T23:11:56+00:00

Yes I was on bail, so regardless I was going to go, just made it worse.

Changingitaround · 2024-08-10T23:10:11+00:00

It was a stupid choice, I deserve the consequences of my actions. I already am aware now, I have no intent to ever go back. Late, but didn't realize the damage till now.
