Re: How many years will be done?

There is no way of telling. Sentencing depends on a whole lot of factors. Such as the person's record, how bad the crime was, how much evidence there is, whether someone was hurt, whether the prosecutor has a good enough case to take to trial or not, etc. Every case is different and there is no way of guessing at such a thing without knowing much more about the case. Your welcome to email me or call if you would like to discuss it. Robert Johnston
