I am a Michigan resident. I have used variouse drugs most of my life, begining in grade school. I went to prison when I was 19 for an assultive offense. When I got of prison I left my home town and changed my life for approximately 5 years I was clean and sobber. I started running a womens shelter and was a youth leader in my church for a few years. I got ill and started kemo and lost everything - job, home, vehicle, etc,... I was forced to move back to my home town with my family and ended up relapsing. While I was on the kemo I was perscribed vicodine and one of the major side effects of the kemo I was on is relapse. I used drugs throught the last 6mo of my medication, when the treatment was complete I tried getting clean. In trying to get clean I went back to the place where I was able to do it before, however, I was using - I just wanted to get there and knew once I was there I would come down and had friends to help me through this. Anyway, I ended up getting caught with the crack pipe the dope was gone. The police offered me a deal - I decided to take it. Deal was I give 3 convictions I walk free. They got 6 in the process, However, when the police reniged many times during the deal then put my life on the line. In the end I got on the stand and reniged. They ended up having to drop the cases. However, one took a plea and 3 theres were busted with drugs and 1 busted with a crack pipe. Because I did not testify I then was charged with possesion of cocaine under 25grams and habitual offender due to my last felony which was from 1994. My guidelines are 0-13months, they offered a plea of one year 6 months up front jail time. I denied the plea and am taking it to trial. Since all of this I am clean have been for 7months I work 3 jobs one I have been at for 6 months I am going to church and bible studies and doing very good. I am looking for any helpful information to assist in this case. Law info I can reasearch. Any tips or advice. What ever may help I am open to.
Thanx a bunch.
