Re: Legal
It all depends. Those are serious charges. Every case is handled differently. It all depends on the facts and evidence of the case. How strong the evidence is. Whether the defendant might have a defense. Whether the victim was seriously injured or not. How bad the defendant's criminal record is, if any. Etc.
