Hey did you read the whole article about the woman who go 20 years for firing off a warning shot?
Cause if you did you would know she was offered a smaller 3 year sentence which she decided to refuse and go to trial so the judge was given no choice but to pass the 20 year sentence.
I pasted the relevant piece of the article below.
"Corey said she had offered Alexander a plea bargain that would have resulted in a three-year prison sentence, but Alexander chose to take the case to a jury trial, where a conviction would carry a mandatory sentence under a Florida law known as "10-20-life."
