So finally, after…I dunno…eight months or so of dickin’ around (pun not intended, but appropriate) in jail with monthly pretrial conferences, our thoroughly disgusting nephew—the Pro-Trump, Christian, child sex offender who unfriended MiniSue on FB because of her “libtard values” as opposed to his “family values”—has apparently decided to cop a plea and will likely be going to prison (where he belongs) for quite a few years. I have no idea what he will plead to, but there are four charges and the potential for a total of, I think, 40+ years. So...maybe 20-25 years’ worth. And, there may be a reduction in time depending on his behavior and how often he gets the crap knocked out of him by his new roommates and neighbors.
His mother, not the sharpest knife in the drawer, will be turning 65 later this year. She lives 563 miles away from him. If she were to go to court event, on June 4th, it might be the last time she ever sees him. But...I’m SURE she cannot afford that trip.
I suggested to MrSue that maybe we should offer to help her rent a car and pay for a motel room. He kind of growled and kind of mentioned that he had recently “loaned” her $1000 and then told her not to pay it back.
I guess he doesn't want to play. And she IS his sister. And she HAS had eight or nine months where she could have saved cigarette money and so on.
But I guess I’m reacting to how I’d feel if there were a chance to see my kid in two weeks...and it might be the last chance for a couple of decades. And I think I might do guilt if we don’t help her. (MrSue didn’t go to Catholic schools. He’s not good at guilt.)
Any thoughts?
