Okay, if you can't do both a good lawyer AND getting her sprung from jail, the smarter move is to get the good lawyer. A little jail time now for a much better attorney than a public defender seems like a decent trade-off (albeit it's still a shitty deal for her, since she's stuck in jail). But a good attorney can likely make *most* of this bullshit disappear, which is far, far, FAR better for her in the long run.

Make goddamned sure that everything gets knocked down to misdemeanor charges. No felonies, period. That would fuck her for life. Misdemeanors can be overlooked. Hell, probation or deferred adjudication would be preferable - anyone with willpower can do four or five years probation standing on their head.

Oh no, dearie, it's no problem for me. It's just nice to see you all in a twist.

And now, I bid you a fond au revoir. You're boring me, sweetie.

Get her into some kind of anger management program, drug rehab (if there's *any* hint of a drug problem, or even of recreational drug use), whatever it takes - make damn sure the judge knows it, too. The legal profession loves to see contrition, loves to see people "playing by the rules". They eat that shit up. Judges - some of them, anyway - actually *want* to give people a second chance. Especially pretty young women. But she's got to appear to have learned her lesson, at least.

Class D felonies should be easy enough to plead down. That's one of those "felonies" they charge you with just to show that they're serious, but they aren't really so serious that they really want to send her to 10 years hard time or anything.

Prisons are overcrowded. Non-violent, non-drug crimes have prosecutors practically BEGGING defendants to take probation these days, and usually some nominal fine or restitution. And community service - they're big on making you work for them, for free, as part of your "punishment".

Tell your girl to hang in there, be cool, and chill the eff out, and she's got more than a fighting chance to pull out of this all right. Oh, and don't admit to SHIT, at least not until you've got things pled down and in writing.

And if you can pull it off, try to patch things up with her mom. Even if it's just YOU going to talk to her mom, letting her know that y'all are trying to get this shit worked out, make it right, etc.

A forgiving mom in court can never hurt.
