49. Good point on some of the other limitations of her life if she were to accept the plea

Mon May 27, 2013, 02:47 AM

May 2013

I don't think colleges would accept a student if they knew they were convicted of a felony, and certainly not if they were classified as a sex offender. It would be too large of a risk for the school. The child abuse is still part of a sexual offense so I think she could still fall under the law requiring her to register.

Add to all those finding a place to live. Most people won't rent to a convicted felon. The apartment complexes run by large management companies will run a background check. If she can't work or find a place to live, then she would either have to rent a room from someone or find a private owner who would be willing to over look the felony and rent to her. I'm not even sure McDonald's would hire a felon. Anything having to do with money or that requires a bond for employment would not be possible.
