You really should not be seeking this information online. You should be speaking with your Rhode Island Criminal Defense Lawyer. If you do not have a Criminal Attorney then you are probably represented by the Rhode Island Public Defenders office. You should consult with your RI Public Defender. The answer to this question depends on many factors including the circumstances of the alleged crime, the positions of any victims, the plea offer that you have recieved as well as your record and many other factors.
