Regal Tiger said:On a side note; I've been looking at appeals and how they work. Talking to lawyer on Monday since he's asked for a few days before speaking to anyone. There is a chance for a successful appeal, depending on interpretation of my thoughts that I'll run by my lawyer and my cousins lawyer friend. We'll see what happens there.
But if the conviction is successfully set aside, I highly doubt that the state would even bother re-trying the case since they would only be able to retry the sodomy and not the actual rape. And if they did retry it I still believe in a different outcome since nobody even thought to really argue the sodomy. Pretty much everyone, including myself, only ever thought to argue the rape since if that went away we all naturally thought that the sodomy charge would as well.
If re-tried then this time that's all there would be to argue.
All depends on random stuff mostly outside of my control though. We'll see.
Either that or probation, lets see it happen big chief!
