My charges are an assult with a deadly weapon, gbi, and gang enhancement. I took 1 year of jail time, 1 strike, and 3 years of probabtion. during 4 months i was out I got violated for having gang paraphanilia and in possesion of a deadly weapon. I was sentenced to another year in county and an additional 2 years to my probabtion. My case is very unique in regards to the gang charges and to the charges itsellf.
