    Possession of Heroin With Intent to Sell
    My question involves criminal law for the state of: NC. My daughter has been charged with heroin possession with intent to sell. She has never been in trouble before. She has a court appointed attorney who is not very experienced in this area. The DA offered her a plea bargain of 6 to 10 years! If she refuses she will be looking at 18 years. She as no previous record. She has 2 young sons. What advice can she have. I told her to hire a private attorney who is experienced. We don't have a lot of money. Help! Thank you.

    You mean she's never been caught before.

    I don't know what help you expect to find here.

    Your daughter's choices are clear.

    Take the plea or go to trial.

    Either way, she can hire a private attorney if she can up up with the money.

    Unless she's acquitted at trial, her 2 young sons are going into foster care.

    Actually, since she is facing incarceration either way, she should research alternative placement for the children immediately (like with you mom). If she waits until she goes to trial to make such arrangements, AJ is right.

    Where is the father(s) of the kids? If there is paternity established, they may also seek custody while your daughter does her time.
