Question:  If in jail on arm robbery charges with no witnesses no evidence first time offender can you be convicted if u were coersed into a statement,in other words can u be convicted off of only a statement

Answer: No witnesses. The police do not have the person that was robbed at gun point. No, then you have nothing to worry about. The case will be dismissed. The robbery victim will appear in court. Then you are screwed, because they have an eye witness to the robbery, even if the robbery victim cannot ID you. Would you like to know how I know they have an eye witness to the crime, other than the victim? You told me. You testified against yourself when you admitted to the armed robbery. IF LA is anything like GA the entire confession is on DVD for the whole world to see.

Question: Hello and my husband who has served so far 13 years for armed robbery, now please listen to his story, he committed two robberies, but he used a note, the same note both times, and his hands were clear at all times, when he when to court for the first one, his public defender advised him to take a plea, my husband was told that the judge would give him life, and for one how could that be, then he didnt tell my husband that under senate bill 441, he would have to do almost 95% of his time. Then after 2 years and 4 months when my husband when to trail for the second offense, he was told that he could get off because eof the charge alone, but this ended up worse, because ehe was ordered to take a mental evaluation test, but wasnt given one, then the lawyer told my husband that this judge would take no more than twenty. My husband constitutional rights alone were not permitted, as he was never allowed to confront his accusers, the Da had him paraded around the court house just before he went to court, my husband was unrecognizable, because he didnt look the same as of the time he did commit the offense, he was by the way 17 years for the first offense and 20 years for the second, but they have him 20 years to do concurrently, and to top it all off, his max out date is 2021, bu this is because they didn't give him timed served so he is doing a 22 year bid for a 20 year sentence and all this happen in the year 1999. Now I have seen more people as has he who do more horrible crimes, and then get off easy, so why in the world did my hsuband recieve such harsh treatment for the crime he did, when no one was hurt, plus being charged with another offense, he never used a weapon at all, please if anyone can please tell me what we can do to get his times taken off at lead that would be a start, then maybe God willing get him home.

Respectfully, We Need Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer: The statutory law on armed robbery calls for a mandatory minimum ten years in prison, and a maximum of twenty years or life. Your husband has been in prison for 13 years, and you have never looked at the statute. The statute allows for a life sentence. How can that be? That is what the legislatures in GA have determined should be the law. The remainder of your question makes absolutely no sense. So here is the real question: Do you intend to put together a few hundred dollars in order to have a professional consult with an attorney, and get sage advice about what occurred, OR do you intend to vent on the internet, making conclusory statements? What does it mean that his constitutional rights were not permitted? What does that mean? Since, you are not an attorney, how do you know his constitutional rights were not permitted? Good luck.
