It was such a foolish choice & the day of the incident it was as if Iwas in another body. First of all I have a husband home with 2 major strokes, I have just had to move my father in with me because of a very serious disease called methosenthes Graves Disease, & I am now sole care takers of both. I have renectly lost my job br=ecause of this. I have had no health insurance fora good while, & therefor, I have been upable to continue my counseling & can not affort by anti-deppressents...I am bio-polor. have the wait of the would on my should & I am mentally, emontionaly, physically, & spiritually imparted. I know I made a bad choice & regret it terribly. The police office did not arrest . but she could not get the owners to drop the charges me & these are suppose to be devout, christian people. I need help to get back to my counseling sessions, & to get bace to taking my anti-deppressents. I am now sole care-givers to my husband & father & I just loss my Mom 4 months ago with cancer all over body. The police office woman knows me & has so kindly offered to get me hepl, assistance (she is so kind) through my Social Services department in my county. I am now set up to resume my counseling & getting my anti-deppressents, & I am under "The Gold Program", & the "Habitat Program to save my home from getting out of foreclose that ny my home has just been put under. My question is: If I present my case as I have stated did you think the judge & the other attorney would be understanding, & compassionate to let me resume my counseling & meds, & be the care giver for my husband & father & maybe allowed me to pay court costs & put me on PBJ & see a probation officer? I am so scared to death & there have days I didn't think I was going to make it through the day without just having the feeling of ending it all!! I have lost my job & I have NO medical insurance AT ALL to afford my counseling, & my anti-deppressents until now that this wonderful police office woman has been willing to help me get the help I so much need to be emotionally, mentallity, able to be my father & husband's care give.....they have no one but me!!!! When i go to court what should I say to addresss the judge & ask him to please have mercy upon me & just please give me a chance to heal again & get the help I desperately need in order to survive & help myself, my husband, & my father. PLEASE, PLEASE help me with what is up-coming for me. I have to keep this from my husband because of the seriousity of him having another stroke, & my father going backward into his healing instead of forward into his healing. Again, PLEASE, PLEASE I NEED your advice & your professional help about this situation. I do not want to go to jail....how can they send someone like me to jail with all the burdens I am carring on my shoulders, & not well myself yet? PLEASE, PLEASE, I beg of you & plead with you to PLEASE response back to me with the right advice & the right words & phrases & sentences to use to lay myself on the mercy of the judge. I NEED , PLEASE for you to writeback to me just what to say in court to convince the judge of my bad judgement & regretful wrong choice I made that day.....That day was just like I was walking into another's person body with so much in a daze & fog & just feeling I had to help release this stress, & build up feelings because I had NOTHING in my body to help me make a right decision & my mind was out out control . PLEASE, PLEASE, again, I beg , & plead of you to PLEASE have some compassion for me & help me through this court date when it arrives, & how to handle myself & convince the judge to be lennigent as I give my self upon him & the mercy of the court. Don't you think I have enough of a case of my husband & my father's health (& I am sole care-giver of both of them) to present a case that the judge will understand? My home is about to go into foreclouse because of I have no work now & I trying to get my husband on Medicare(he will NEVER be able to talk or walk right again (he is on 14 pills a day, & my father is daily using the strengthness in all his muscles dur to this deplaping disease he has & he ison 17 pills a day. I get,maybe 2 1/2 hours of sleep a night because I have to suction my father's throat tube out every 3 hours in order for him to breath, & I have to take care of all of my husband's needs (all of them..very persome ones, & many others), too.

So, PLEASE, I am in deseprate need of your help & advice of what to do & how tohandle myself & what to say when I go to court so I can favor with the judge & the other attorney....All I have isthat I am walking in God grace & mercy & his hedge of protection around me. Again, PLEAES, PLEASE let me heart from you as soon as possible.. I am praying so very hard for your help!!!!!!PLEASE answer me back soon. May Our God Bless you & reward you for your help to me.

Bring your charge papers to the nearest Office of the Public Defender. Be careful not to discuss the details of your case on line because it is not confidential.
