    Hello again, eric:

    You may very well have gotten this deal because you DIDN'T lay down right away... And, THAT is the point of THIS post.

    You're all hung up on right and wrong, and justice, and fair, and all sorts of esoteric things...

    But, it's about WINNING, and NEGOTIATION, and getting the best deal you can get. Not that other stuff.

    These classes have nothing to do with whacking that guy. They have to do with satisfying the court. Look. Do you think peeing in a cup for a few years stopped me from doing what I want?? Nope, it didn't, but it made THEM happy.

    Now, if you want to talk about that esoteric stuff, OK.

    Justice happens! Not, because of YOUR case, or because of ANY individual case, and it may not have even happened in your case. But, justice, with a capital J, happens in the aggregate. It happens that way, because our system calls for two lawyers fighting out on an even playing field, thousands and thousands of times a day.

    Yes, I will agree with excon, the American legal system is not justice, it is not right or wrong, it is legal or not legal, and it is what can be proved or not proved.

    The majority of all court actions in criminal cases are plead out in some agreement.

    And can both people be found guilty yes they can

    Sounds like a good result and one you can live with.

    Honestly glad it worked out for you. Maybe someone else can learn something from the thread. I hope you stick around.
