no, all three letters would be off limits.

Especially after it was turned down. Otherwise the prosecutor would make absurd offers in order to have them used as PR pressure and intimidation.

Next look would be public corruption. Political gain can be deemed corruption. need to research that. Especially since FL just upped the penalties.

What kind of logic is this?Absurd offers? If its absurd in favor of the defendant, i.e., probation in a murder case, the defendant will take such an offer and there is no PR issue. If its absurd in favor of the prosecution, i.e., spending a year listening to holdonnow's show for a traffic violation, the defendant will not take the offer and the prosecution will look silly.

"no, all three letters would be off limits."

There were only two that I know of...

So the one from Black is now officially a "plea bargain" or is there another term we should be using for it ?
