Boot Camp Denial
My son was charged with simple robbery. He was on probation at the time. His options were 2 yrs. revoked and 4 yrs. for robbery charge to run concurrent, serve 2 yrs. and be released. Or to take boot camp for 6 months and be released. He agreed to the boot camp. After all this and through some research we've found out that with the robbery charge you are prohibited entry into boot camp. We feel it was wrong for him to be offered something that is obvious he is not eligible for. Through further research we've learned that when he is turned down for the boot camp, he may be looking at 85% of 6 yrs. He would have been better off taking the original option. What steps, if any, can we take now to correct or change the obvious injustice we feel he was given.

Re: Boot Camp Denial
Contact the judge about a resentencing. I'm sure the judge never intended the impossible.
