My only advice kid si to make sure your getting the absolute best legal representation you can afford. The difference isnt minor. If you have a public defender, you're fucked. Beg,borrow,steal to get some cash and get a better attorney.
Isn't there some bitch you can rat out to buy off some time, or at minimum to determine where your sent. Don't go in if you dont have to man. Fuck your "friends." Just move.
