Legal Question in Criminal Law in Wisconsin

These questions are impossible for a defense attorney like me to answer; since only the prosecutor and judge in charge of the case make the decisions whether or not to offer a reduced charge or deferred prosecution. However, if the circumstances were not aggravated. nobody got hurt, and the family had reconciled, I would be optimistic that I could eventually convince most prosecutors to offer a reduction of the felony to a misdemeanor for a defendant who is otherwise leading an productive and exemplary lifestyle. Obviously, I do not know whether this defendant is such a person, and know nothing about the underlying factual details which are always extremely important. He therefore needs to consult with an experienced criminal lawyer as soon as possible. Since none of these sentences carry mandatory minimum jail sentences, probation without any jail time is a possibility, but so is prison time if the defendant does not present himself properly to the judge in a positive light.
