[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 636521, member: 15801"] To answer a question you posed on the other thread. The way it works here, and I am guessing there also, is that if they come up with a plea agreement the judge can accept it, or choose to change it (either lighter or harsher). If he does that then your son would have the right to refuse it.... and my guess is the DA could also choose to refuse it. So by agreeing to the plea deal he is not agreeing to any harsher sentance the judge would suggest. It is risky to not take a plea deal BUT it all really depends on the evidence in the case and how good the case is against him. It is not always easy to get a conviction..... but if they do convict then the sentance could be worse. TL Sent using ConductDisorders mobile app [/QUOTE]
