the prosecutor was supposed to stand silent and he didn't hold up his part of the bargain because he did speak. and I'm the defendant's fiancee, it was statutory rape. he had no other background of problems with the law and they gave him 12 years, that doesn't seem right to me because murders dont even get 12 years!!!!!!!
How old was the victim and how old is your fiancé?

she was 14 and he was 18 she is now 17 and he is 22. she waited 2 years before pressing charges. there's a whole lot more to this case but i'm not gonna go there because everyones opinion is different.

Re: Question About A Plea Bargain
Sometimes the sentences that are handed out don't really make much sense. Your local area most likely has a legal aid society or the equivalent and they should be able to help you to find an attorney.
