I was going to write about gymnastic stuff but instead I just wanted to congratulate you on your sobriety; I've watched some very close friends and family hit rock bottom and crawl out in one way or another, especially recently. I'm not sure I could be much help, but I'd love to offer my shoulder if you ever need it.

One day at a time, indeed.

XO.

now youre just making me blush

That camping trip sounds like a good memory. I loved the mud run so much that I'm already planing on next year...

Monroe's set was hard to light. I used two studio strobes (Novatron I think) plus four of the hotel lights to try to get it right.

Buelher's set was easier...just natural light.

Thank you!!!!!

The reports on sentencing are contradictory because there are numerous factors involved.

Technically, the conviction for involuntary manslaughter comes with a sentencing of 2 to 4 years.

However, there can be an added "use" charge in this case because the defendant used a gun in commission of the offense. Depending on whether or not the judge wants to add that on (he doesn't have to) it can add an additional, consecutive sentence of 4, 6, or 10 years.

So, in theory he can be sentenced to a maximum of 14 years however, even if he is sentenced to that, he will not serve out the full term (for various reasons including good behavior, ect.). So, even on a 14 year sentence he can serve as little as 7. Meaning if he's sentenced to the minimum two years he could be out in as little as one. (Although, the latter is unlikely.)

Also, there is currently a US Justice inquiry investigating if federal charges can be served. If he is convicted in a Federal court he could serve a concurrent sentence in a separate, Federal facility.

I'm going to Golden Gate, but I'm hoping to transfer to Boalt.
