If the person in question (not me and no relation of mine - thank god) was charged with two felony counts of embezzlement of public funds (school district) in california with two counts special circumstances in October 2005. Bench warrant issued and he was basically forced to turn himself in to sheriff's department in May 2006. He's continued on and on, even asked for dismissal which was denied in November 2006. Now we're in prelim stage and wondering how much longer if it goes to trial. A friend of mine, once covered courts for 8 years states that it's likely he'll plea out for less time. His next court date is next wednesday after an 8 week continuance asked by his defense atty for "investigation" again - stalling. Can he go for another year before trial - there's been two grand juries since 2002 - we're now talking five years later? He allegedly took over 70,000 public equipment, sold it and pocketed it.
