It’s a mad, mad, mad world . . .
My wonderful client from the last post called me today. He does not want to withdraw his plea. At first, I thought he had come to his senses and was thinking rationally. Boy, was I wrong. He wants a sentence modification. Okay, I can live with this, because this makes a little sense. He wondered if the Judge would remove the intensive probation supervision if he (my client) would do another six months in the county jail. Let that sink in for a minute. My former client wants to go back to jail for another six months, despite the fact he is a free man now. Most of my clients want to get out of jail. Not this guy. He wants to get back in. The world has gone insane, I tell you.

Well, it’s not that odd, I think. If he knows he can’t cut it on probation, he’s better off doing a few extra months in jail. I’ve had a few clients ask me to do this.
