Doubt it. IUnless it's not their first offense. Even then, there is plenty of
help offered in M
County.
My sis works for the PTI program (Pre trial intervention). Kids and adults from
AP, rumson
etc - unemployed, the doctors, teachers, moms and dads , single parents and
more. So
lets stop thinking about how "unfair" the system is and more so what someone is
doing
wrong. You can $500k per year and wind up in front of her cause you have a
fancy lawyer
or $5,000 per year and still see her with a court appoined lawyer, counselor
and programs
to "help". It's about time to stop blaming the system (of course there are
problems) but -
there is still that OPPORTUNITY to be a benefit to a community vs benefiting
FROM the
system. That's why there is jail.
Imagine a conversation in my mothers every thrusday night whne my sister talks
in
general about someones thurd time going through PTI.
