The client was on probation out of another county for the same activity against the same victim. After a year of investigation the State charged the client for an additional crime of identity theft. After almost a year of negotiations with the State and the victim we worked out a plea agreement that involved an open plea to the Judge, but the State would ask for 10 months in jail, followed by 2 years of community control, followed by 2 years of probation. At the plea hearing my client testified, as well as her daughter about the family drama, how the incident came about and what steps have been made to remedy the situation to ensure it doesn’t happen again. After the testimony, and argument, the Judge sentenced to 12 months community control followed by probation. Client will be eligible for early termination of probation, and most importantly to her and her daughter, she got to go home.
