Re: obstruction
Although I would need more information, I believe you're charged with two fifth degree felonies. Each charge carries a prison term of up to 12 months although depending upon all of the circumstances of the offenses you would seem like a likely candidate for probation. It is certainly possible that the charges could be reduced to misdemeanors or even dismissed. If you haven't talked to a lawyer yet, you should. My office is in Canton. if you wish to discuss the matter further, feel free to email me.
