Philip was sentenced to DOC today. The court and judicial system is so complicated, I'm not sure what the final outcome will be. As near we can tell, he was sentenced to 2.5 years for one offense and 1.5 years for another with 78 days credit for the time he's been confined.
It was my understanding there was to be 3 different charges that he'd be sentenced on. I only heard two. I hope the third one doesn't come back to haunt at a later time.It wasn't supposed to be like this. He was supposed to finish up high school and move on to start his life as a young adult ... with the world to explore. Bad choices have plagued him over recent years. Things have gone so wrong and now they're getting much more complicated. My heart breaks with the knowledge he'll soon be transferred to a prison facility - he'll be alone in a harsh, harsh world.
