I thought when she was sentenced for the check fraud, she was sentenced with time served (meaning she was credited for the time she had already served in jail). She continued to stay in jail because of the capital murder charges, which then she got time served for the lying counts. HHJP had to calculate the difference from Jan. 10 (sentence for check fraud) to the day of sentencing for her lying charges to figure out, with good time included, how much more time she would have to serve for the 4 counts of lying.
My point is, I could see how DOC would misconstrue what HHJS said during his sentencing "1 year of probation upon release.", which could mean IMO upon release for the charges she currently was at trial for. And, if she had been credited for time served at that point, the year of probation would start then, IMO. This check charge trial had nothing to do with the murder trial, and if she started probation at that point it's no fault of anyone's that she served it in jail while being held on capital murder charges.
I'm no lawyer, so I'm not sure if I understand that right. But, does that make sense to anyone out there?
