my son has been incarcerated for 75 days he was arrested on vop and dealing in stolen property and provide false id regulated metals under 300.00. he was on probation for dealing in stolen property in 2013. They are wanting to give him 16 months prison the fl. state is bull dogging him. Is this a normal offer should he plead out or go to trial?
Answer
Only his attorney can answer this question. There are so many variables when figuring out sentencing. 16 months can be a very low offer in some situations, a very high offer, or it might be right where he scores. Again, speak to his attorney about what is right for your son.
Answer
It is hard to say, but dealing in stolen property is a 2nd degree felony which means he could get up to 15 years for the offense. Many times the State will be very hard in a situation where the violation is for the same offense you are already on probation for. These offenses alone put him very close to mandatory prison without any prior record (it looks like these would tally up to around 41.1 pts and 44 is where prison is required).
