He was charged with molestation. He plea bargained because he was told [by whom, I am not sure] that the judge was not going to let his evidence in the courtroom. This is in Michigan. He claims that his evidence includes a doctor's report, a psychiatrist's report and reports from the girl's teachers and guidance counselors. Apparently there is a law in Michigan that was intended to protect victims by removing evidence that the judge deems to be harmful to the victim. How could a doctor's report be harmful to the victim?
When he was told that his evidence was not going to be allowed in court, he got scared and signed the plea bargain. He recieced 18mo. to 15 yrs. He would have faced 15yrs to life if it went to court and he lost. (Very likely with no evidence) There was no evidence on the side of the accuser. . . only heresay.
I hope that this makes sense. . . I am new to this.
