    What do you mean "without my knowledge"? You went before the court, were asked if you wanted to enter a guilty plea, were sworn in, were informed of your rights, stated under oath the facts constituting the offense on the record, and your guilty plea was accepted by the court. All of that was known to you.

    You can hire a lawyer and try to have your plea set aside, but at the risk that if you're convicted and again sentenced you won't get the deferral. As you are guilty as sin, there is presumably a good chance that you will be convicted if you try to take the case to trial.
