Had our visit on Saturday, it was good to see and talk to him but he is still in chains and behind glass, he had an incident with a cellmate and instead of "ratting" on him my son said he might hurt himself, so they put him in the naked room for two days. when he came out his celly was gone but had stolen all our son's writing stuff. The guard basically said tough s---. since he had lied about wanting to hurt himself just to get away from the cellmate. (to me that's a cry for help). also his "new" lawyer we were so hopeful about said his claims of bad representation by the PD had no merit. and if he felt he signed his plea agreement under duress that was hard to prove. I am so afraid they will redo his plea and give him more time. I so want to say just keep your mouth shut do your time(20) shorter with good time, and get out. very frustrating. and of course no one seems to care about his panic attacks and OCD.
Then on the way home(a 3 hr drive) we hit a deer. luckily we are OK but our car was towed to a small town with no hotel and we couldn't get a rental till sunday. nearest town was 30 miles away. but a couple of very kind strangers gave us a ride to a hotel and we were finally able to get home 24 hours late. so long exhausting weekend has left me depressed and sad, this is only our second Christmas without him and I just can't get into the "spirit".......
