If you can provide me personal details to prove you have a case on you, I'd like to send you a hundred bucks or so to help you with whatever you use it for.
I think you need a tank lawyer, noone wants to live on the lamb, and fight this shit down to a single enhanced charge. I hope some others reach out to you to help man.
If your case is legit, I would like to help you with what I can man, let me know.

5+ years for pot is sickening, and if a hundred bucks I can spare affords the man a better lawyer, then it's probably the best drug related money I'll have ever spent

5+ years for any non-violent drug offense is just retarded. Yea, let's waste more money we don't have on prisons. Fucking america.

How good of a lawyer are you really talking to?
3 grand makes him see on the low scale of paid attorneys, not to mention all the shit he just told you.
I would bust my ass and pull together some loot and get a serious, ex prosecutor lawyer. Yes it is going to cost you a lot, but this is your life.
Considering what you got caught with, and how long ago your last charge with everything that they are telling you seems ridiculous.
Here you only do 30-40% of the sentenced time on non violent drug offenses. Dude i know just got 5 years for 5 lbs of pot through the mail, got out in 22 months.
Get a *good* lawyer, and pull yourself together and go do the time.
I wish you the best.

lol well thanks a bunch man that means alot but realistically a hundred bucks isnt really gonna help. and they got me pretty red handed so theres no real room to fight, just plea bargain im trying to save money now but because of the time fram im on and my job i probably dont have the time to come up with the money i need. looks like ill be stuck with a court appointed but im definatly trying. thanks for the offer tho man i appreciate it

unfortunutly the drug free zone enhancment makes me ineligble for parole, iv confirmed this with the TDC parole book guidelines. so ill be doing 100% of my time unless they give me over 5 years, which while possible, im trying not to think about

Yeah I hear what you're saying, but good lawyers can make a lot of shit happen.
Especially an ex prosecutor who knows the court rooms and the judges.

so someone posted this in response to my dilemma on another site. one more specificially oriented toward my state and situation
"Talk to your lawyer and holdout for the best possible deal. Your in the drivers seat, its your life. Your small potatoes and not on their priority list. Just for example say you'll cop to 6 with no enhancements"
It sounds like a decent idea, really brought my hopes up. if they dropped the enhancments id be eligible for parole and would only do about 2 years on 6. dropped the enhancments drops the range from 2-10 to 6months- 2 years tho. Maybe I could say "Drop the DFZ enhancment, RE-enhance me for my priors, and ill sign for 5 right now"
I think thats going to be my opening bid. 2 years I could do
grand jury is on wednesday, if they dont indict me this month I have a real chance of earning enough money to hire a lawyer, cross yer fingers, and again thanks for the support. I dont have many friends and its awesome that perfect strangers on an internet forum care

So a LITTLE bit of good news. My pre-trial officer told me that when I get indicted I can tell the judge that I want to hire my own lawyer, he will then ask how much money I need and how much I make, and then very often they will put off my next court date long enough to give me time to raise the money. I may not be able to get a very expensive one but I feel like anyone I pay will be better than a court appointed. So hey thats something!! Definatly made me feel better. At the very least it means I get a little more time before they rape my life lol. I have about 400 bucks right now. I owe 500 to the electric company/cable company/gym. but fuck those guys and my credit, the lawyer is much more important. Cheapest one is 3 grand so I feel like I can definatly pay him. Makes me feel like theres a fight to be had. And I will fight this fight with every fiber of my being! my credit rating sucks anyway or I would jsut get a credit card for the lawyer

From a half pound of weed charge?
I could see running if he got caught with a couple of tons of weed or 50 lbs of mdma, but this is just a little herb. No sense living your whole life on the run over that.

I few years back I got hit . I had a 100 plants and I got six months, house arrest.Not a single check on me at home during that period. Sadly our Canadian gov has just passed our first Mandatory min.last year . over six plants is supposede to b man. jail time.... But from what I read the first three judges to come up with such cases refused to hand down the Man. sentence. Go figure. Stay Tuff Grump. I shake my head in disbelief at the absurdity of this Drug War. I guess we'll have to send u a pf cake while your down. Although I'm not sure bout hallucinogens while incarcerated, might b a little tense. There's still a lot of room up here in Can although it's -32 c tonight
