and the verdict is/was...

Five months.



The judge took the 1 month that my dad's lawyer was going for, and deducted that from the 6 months the prosecutor was going for, and calls that fair. How is that fair? That's not even splitting the difference! ugh.

But, he may get transfered to our county's jail, and then after that he's been preapproved for an ankle bracelet so... It'll just be him in there for a couple of weeks til he can get transfered. I won't complain since he (most likely) will be getting an ankle bracelet. It just sucks that the judge decided to say 5 months in jail. What if he can't get transfered and we actually do have to live without him for 5 months?
