Judge Raquel West SHOCKS Defendant After Rejecting 10 Year Deal and Risking LIFE in Prison!!

Описание: When an aggravated assault defendant walks into court and rejects a 10-year prison offer, Judge Raquel West makes sure he understands exactly what he is risking. This is not just another plea rejection — this case carries a possible LIFE sentence if he loses at trial.

📌 What Happens in This Video:
Derek Shinkle is charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. The state offers him 10 years in prison, but he rejects the deal and chooses trial. Then the prosecutor makes it clear the offer will never go down, and Judge Raquel West warns him that once the case hits the trial docket, that 10-year deal is gone.

But the most shocking moment comes when the judge explains the real risk: because of a prior conviction, his punishment could be enhanced to a first-degree felony — meaning 5 years to 99 years or LIFE in prison.
