[quote=Anonymous][quote]the quotes imply she is getting a tough sentence but press notes it appears to be under sentencing guidelines. [/quote] That's normal.Plea deals are almost always for less time than you'd get if you go to trial. Sentencing guidelines apply after a trial ending in conviction.Few people would plead guilty if doiing so would yield the same sentence you'd get if you roll the dice on a trial and lose.That's the element of "coercion" referred to. It could be that her family thinks she's mentally ill and that her acts are the manifestation of that illness.Or it could be that mom believes the cockamanie story about trying to rescue the girl and thinks that if she testifies she'll be able to convince jurors that there's a reasonable doubt it's true.[/quote]
