As of today he has no lawyer only a public defender. I am willing to pay for any services offered. Only the ones who will go the mile and believe in his innocent can respond please!

If he's under indictment in district court in Smith County and hasn't bonded out then he indeed is represented by an attorney. Myself and the rest of the county are paying for your son's representation already.

Its hardcore because thats what the citizens want in order to hopefully provide a safer environment.

Yeah, and it ain't really a'working there, is it? It's kind of like the abstainance-only education we have around here, too.

Sure it works. Smith County juries can't guarantee that a person will never commit another crime, but they can preclude that individuals opportunity to do so by giving the criminals actual pen sentences that keep them out of our neighborhoods.

Just wanted to ask the mom what happened to your son? I read most of the comments and it is to be expected drug charges 1st, 2nd,.... it has to be dealt with. Just remember THE LORD will never put on you what he will not see you through.

my son is still in smith county jail and is awaiting a jury trial because they are trying to give him 10 to 15 years for his 1st offense now and think that is a harsh sentence for someone who has never been in trouble before. He has been in there 6 months and i feel that he has learned his lesson and would never do this again but evidently smith county is trying to throw the book at him without giving him a second chance to learn from this experience. Smith county feels that all black young men are harden criminals and should go from the streets straight to prison without some type of reform. Not all young black men are thugs and losers. He made a mistake by trying to help someone in his family and didnt realize what he was getting into. Just pray for us ! some do learn their lesson and my son is one of them

thanks legal eagal for your legal input on my sons situation. It has shed some light on this matter and hopefully it will turn out the latter.

Is your son willing to give the Lord a chance? Many people have been helped by studying the word of God.

I hope your son gets probation and helps people learn how drugs ruin live(s).

I hear your anger, which is normal. There are so many people myself included that thought they had learned their lesson with just being in jail. Be thankful for your blessings in good and bad times. Your journey will not be easy, if he has to serve time you will serve it with him unfortunately. BUT its not forever its a journey and through the LORD you will triumph.
