A public defender IS a lawyer. What did you think she was, a court stenographer? Being a public defender means MORE of a commitment to justice, as a PD could easily make a lot more money in the private sector with the level of experience they have. In fact, many defense attorneys working in the private sector began as public defenders, so cut her some slack. I can tell you, an attorney in the private sector would not give you much more time. But if you must, pay the few hundred dollars (if that) for just a consult with another attorney if you need to, it doesn't mean you have to retain that attorney, which you cannot afford. For a few hundred dollars, a consult with an attorney may give you peace of mind.
And tear up that statement of yours, it isn't a defense. You chose to participate in a drug deal, at whatever level, and now you have to answer to the charges. And ask yourself this hard question: if you were not arrested, would you not have taken some of the drug you had participated in obtaining? You went to rehab, after all, and the judge is going to want to know why you went to treatment if you didn't have a drug problem. I'm not saying that you do, but it's out there. You have to be brutally honest with yourself because if you're not, your attorney, the prosecuting attorney, and THE JUDGE will know it because they see cases like yours all day, everyday. So stop shifting the blame to your friend and accept responsibility already. You'd be surprised with the peace of mind that will accompany it.
i was being sarcastic out of frustration i did get caught red handed and i admitted to that here. I would not lie which i said and couldn't even if i wanted to. But i guess you did kinda answer my question in what i already knew i would have to do. Play junky stick with my therapy and outpatient. i already signed up for school also. So hopefully they feel sympathy especially since my friend who did set up the deal is doing nothing and has a previous record and has already gone back down to Florida to fuck off like its no big thing. I just wish i would get a little compassion. I take full responsibility but 3+ year in prison and 50k in fines. Ill be dead the first night my life would be over. Just for some pills that were 95% Tylenol...oh well they can cut the noose down when they find me in the cell.Should i speak the truth or lie and tell them i'm a junky which would work more in my favor??? God this world i so fucking corrupt!!!!
Take it day by day psycko I know it must be so scary. I know it will be difficult to throw this on the back burner and try to be calm until your court date but try not to worry yourself too much until you get your actual sentencing.
That's a tough one, one of my friends got caught with 7grams of coke, 3.5 grams of crack, 500 extasy pills, about 5000$ cash and 3 digital scales. Luckly for him we live in Canada so he got a slap on the wrist, hasn't even gone to court yet.

Well, yes. I suppose manipulation is something instinctive with myself. But in no ways am I trying to seek help for my psychological behavior, I am aware of it though.
