Judge Aaron J. Gauthier Retracts His Own Ruling — Corrects Statutory Max in Surprise Court Turn

Описание: In this intense sentencing hearing, Judge Aaron J. Gauthier stops the proceeding to issue a rare on-the-record correction — acknowledging that he was mistaken about the statutory maximum penalty under the habitual-offender enhancement.

After re-reviewing the plea agreement and amended information, Judge Gauthier retracts his earlier statement and confirms that the PSI correctly listed a 20-year maximum due to the Habitual 3rd enhancement.
The courtroom then proceeds through sentencing for People v. Christopher Murray, including guideline scoring, PSI corrections, concurrent sentencing requests, and the defendant’s personal statement.
