Oh man -- just to add more drama, Meagan Utsey is also the wife of Judge Arthur Cecil Utsey, IVSLED Investigating Official Misconduct In Colleton County - FITSNews
Computer tech under investigation ...

Only 85% of that sentence is mandatory so it's possible to be only approx 23 years. I don't ever want AM out as a free man again, even if he would be 77.27 years is a life sentence because it takes him to age 81, but I see your point.
Plea deals always involve give and take. For example:
Prosecution:
"You give us something and spare us a trial and we will give you something in return."
Defense:
"Our defendant will change his plea from not guilty to guilty." "Now what is your offer to us?"
Prosecution:
"27 years instead of another life sentence."
Defense:
"Ok, we won't go to trial, please send us the papers for our defendant to sign stating your deal."
You see Alex had no incentive to change his plea to guilty without getting something in return. It always works this way. Another thing, Alex gives up his right to appeal by pleading guilty. That gives finality to the case.

Plea bargains are agreements between defendants and prosecutors in which defendants agree to plead guilty to some or all of the charges against them in exchange for concessions from the prosecutors.
Only someone with DH's lack of professionalism would say something like that. Gag, he needs to retire.
Cesspool for sure and I think it reaches higher and further than just AM & his cronies.
