The thing is the courts must be blind to the other facts in this case when sentencing her for the check fraud, if convicted. They can't realistically make her serve 50 years for forgery, because that is not the way everyone is treated. If the sentence is way out of proportion with the norm, it would make it easily appealed. Even though there are numerous charges, I believe the court will take them all as "one occurrence" and she will be sentenced as one event. The guidelines are 1 to 5 years. My guess is they will say five years, credit for time served, and out in about 40% of sentencing. Bottom line, right now, if sentenced today, my guess would be 2 years for the financial and theft charges.
If they really charge her with the stealing from the grandparents, that might be considered another event, because it clearly did not happen while Caylee was missing. CA says she already has affidavits from her bank in the early 911 calls. That means her bank likely can go ahead with those charges. That might get her another year, but I'm still thinking less than 3 years total.
If child neglect and obstruction are proved, they would carry 1 to 6 years. Again, I believe it will be more in the three year range actually to be served. I would imagine JB would fight to have them served together, so my money says she's out in three years, tops. Three years to make 1.5 million dollars.
