nah its in what they call a Regional Punishment Facility. Its no violent/sex offenders in there. Basically a bunch of young people with -5 years for a drug charge of some sort. Its not even Arkansas Departmnet of Corrections. Its Department of Community Corrections. So i got it worked out with no parole or probation so i can leave this god forsaken shithole again.
It's almost worse when you know that you can just walk out of the place. When I was in a similar place there was one guy that up and left, so his plea agreement was screwed so he had to do more time in prison. There were a couple people that got sent to prison from there because they got in a fight which obviously doesn't fly. My plea agreement was that I would complete my time there followed by 18 months of outpatient, and if I got kicked out it would violate the plea agreement so they would give me the max on the 2 felony charges. I completed it though so the felonies got dropped down to a class A misdemeanor.
the first hing he should do is walk up and take someones corn bread and show them whos the boss
I don't think it's like that chinky. If it's like the place I was in, you gotta be pretty well behaved or it fucks up your deal and you get sentenced to some real time. By me it's called the
DTAP plea. That site seems pretty accurate for how my case went, except that at the end for me, I still had to plead guilty to the misdemeanor after withdrawing my plea to the felonies. The thing is, they have you plead guilty to the felonies before you get sent away, so if you screw up at all, there is really no fighting it since you have to waive your right to an appeal for this plea.
I used to refer to it as the "double or nothing" plea since essentially you will get double the amount of prison time if you screw up since the deal is already made. If you play your cards right though, you don't do any real time in prison at the end, and you either get just a misdemeanor or all charges dropped. I just got time served and the usual fines when I got sentenced for the misdemeanor after successfully completing all that b.s., and having the felonies dropped.
