2 Consecutive Lifes + 45 Years?! The Truth Behind This Sentencing Shock

Описание: Two life sentences plus 45 years — but is the sentence really as harsh as it sounds?
In this episode, retired Missouri appellate attorney Tony DeWitt breaks down the sentencing in the Edric Faust case and explains why the headline sentence may not tell the full story.
Judge Lot imposed two consecutive life sentences along with additional confinement, but Georgia sentencing law — especially the distinction between pre-2006 and post-2006 parole rules — drastically changes how the punishment actually works in practice.
In this video we discuss:
⚖️ How Georgia structures life sentences and consecutive sentencing
⚖️ Why some counts are vacated or merged as a matter of law
⚖️ The difference between sentenced time vs parole eligibility
⚖️ Why crimes committed before 2006 may trigger older parole rules
⚖️ The realistic timeline for parole eligibility in this case
⚖️ Why “parole eligible” does NOT mean parole granted
⚖️ Possible appellate issues — including sufficiency of the evidence
This is not legal advice — just legal analysis designed to help make the law make sense.
