It looks like I'm going to state prison!

I'd just like to repeat the golden rule of growing, "don"t tell anyone who don"t need to know" Please,live by that.[/quote]

Absolutely! Tell no one, ever.
You never know who might turn on you and use it agaisnt you or for their advantage.

Glad you made it through your time.
Best of luck moving forward.
Peace...

Well, those of you that know me, know that i got busted on 4-20-09, with 153 plants and a house full of loaded guns.
I just talked to my lawyer last night and it looks like I'll be getting 2 1/2 to 5 years in a state prison.My lawyer said that I would have to do 3/4 of 2 1/2 years,which is like 21 months.:frown:
In Jan. I'll go before the judge to plead guilty,then within 60 to 90 days I'll be officially sentenced.
I've never been in trouble before,I,ve had the same factory job for over 20 years.I'll be loosing my job and they are taking my house.
From what my lawyer tells me,I'm lucky.He said I could have been looking at a mandatory 5 years and a 15,000 dollar fine.
I was actually thinking that I might get away with home arrest or probation.And I would be able to keep my house and job.But thats not to be.
I'm not looking for sympathy,just trying to let everyone know out there to "be careful".
I'm worried sick,but will do my time, the best I can.
I should be sentenced by March or April.So I won't be around here after that for 21 months or so.My lawyer also told me that The state of Pa. is letting non violent offenders out of prison early because there is no room for the real bad guys,so with any luck,i won't have to do the whole 21 months.
I;m sorry to post such depressing news but it is helping me cope with the situation.

Fuck man! Really sorry to hear this bro....Its sad to hear these types of stories, even more so when a person is going to Prison, losing their house AND a 20 year long job...Shit is just so fucked up....

Good luck bro..Again man, Im sorry.

Just read, You are out man... real Cool...
Glad your out bro.. hopefully all of that is behind you and you can get on with your life...

I dont know what your current situation is, and im not going to question it, But if you need some genetics to get back up, I'd be more than happy to throw you a pack or 2 of beans to help out.. Just PM me man if I can help..

Hope all is well with you, and hope you can get some funds together to move to a better state...

Good Luck man!
