Taking the deal

Posted by Sherry Pringle on January 23, 2015 at 7:23am

Corey talked to his attorney wednesday, the prosecutor is offering him a deal of 16 years.  If they go to trial he is looking at 25 to life, so he decided that he really has no choice but to take this.  I am a mess, talking to him and trying to stay strong and not break down crying when im on the phone with him is probably one of the hardest things I have ever done.  I feel so alone in all of this and just dont know what to do

    Thank you all so much, you all are helping me through this more than I can ever tell you.  One minute I am doing good  or so I think  the next I am a crying mess again and just so lost and hopeless.  I talked to Corey last night, they told him he will probably leave later this week or early next week so we just wait now.

    I feel the same way I'm trying so hard not to break down on the phone.

    Yes they have a judicial release he can request after 5 years and then every couple years after that if it is not approved the 1st time, and then he will be eligible  for release after i think 80%.  So we are just taking it one day at a time right now.   He is scared to death right now and I am scared for him.  I told him tonight he cannot be the scared crying kid he is now going in there  he needs to find some of that "asshole" he was when he was a teenager and thought he could take on the world.

    Very tough one. My son was facing the same and also pled. Try to right now to take small amounts of time and work through that. The future will take care of itself and it is just too overwhelming right now. My heart aches for you. I just went through this in September. Hugs, my friend. One hour...one minute at a time.
