Question about if sentence modification, appeal, or anything is available with a plea
In Florida - My friend took a plea to a manslaughter charge basically because he was afraid of the other options. They offered him 30 years, then 15, then 12, then 10 with 5 on paper after the sentence. Then they quit offering, so when they said 10 with no papers afterward and to drop the 3rd degree murder (which confuses me because everything I've seen, 3rd degree murder and manslaughter is the same thing) and said he only had 24 hrs to decide (they had never given him a limit before), he jumped on it, because he was afraid it would go back to 30 or they'd bring in the word murder again

Armed Robbery, Advice Needed
I was going meeting a person who was looking to purchase some marijuana. He got in my car along with his girlfriend, held up a knife in my face and robbed my weed and my ipod, then ran off.
