    Default Re: Jail Time

    no way to tell if he will go to jail. There could be a plea bargain that allowed some charges to be dropped or reduced. His prior history will likely play a part in sentencing as well. Then, no way to determine what his sentence might be other that reading directly out of the statutes to see what could be ordered.

    Thats pretty high bail and higher level felonies,it all depends on the judge,da and his lawyer. Chances are a plea bargain can be arranged to reduce it somewhat. It all really depends,like Jk said.
