Answer

I can hear your concern in your question. To get the help you are seeking, you need to consult an attorney directly rather than posting here online. Only then can I or any other attorney for that matter learn the details and assess the case etc. Feel free to contact me, or another attorney here.



Answer

It's best to retain the services of an attorney. Unfortunately, depending upon your son's age, the prosecutor does have the discretion to charge your son as an adult. However, if he was 17 at the time of the offense, that is certainly a mitigating factor that might warrant a more lenient plea offer. Of course, if there are any constitutional violations, a dismissal may also be warranted. That analysis would require the expertise of an attorney. Feel free to give me a call if you have any additional questions and good luck!
