I agree that the meme completely misrepresents the reality of the marijuana charge. It's bogus.

Either way, I didn't see his rebuttal justifying the 6 months for the 3 sexual assault felonies.

Surely, the "lawyer" has some legal wisdom to enlighten us with that outcome.

The lawyer addressed this.

If Turner violated his probation like the pot guy, he would face more time than him.

He also mentions how Turner has to register as a sex offender for the rest of his life, which will have a profound impact on his future.

No he wouldn't. Turner was sentenced to three years probation (among other things); Worsley pleaded to five years probation. If you violate probation, you can't go to jail for more time than your probation was for.

That's one of the several things that stand out in the self-described lawyer's reply that pretty clearly implies they're not actually a lawyer.

If Turner violated his probation, he would be facing more time in prison.

You are being intentionally moronic by comparing probation periods vs penalties for violating probation.

I have to assume that you are a shill, a child, or an idiot
