Below is Marie Masons unredacted plea agreement that was filed with the court today (9/11/08). A date for sentencing is yet determined. We will keep folks updated.
We are encouraging people to come out and support Marie at her change of plea hearing which is scheduled for Sept. 11, 2008 at 11am before Magistrate Carmody at the Federal Building located at 666 Federal Bldg 110 Michigan St NW Grand Rapids MI 49503. Be sure to arrive early and dress appropriately for court. We expect sentencing to take place at a later date before Judge Paul L. Maloney in Kalamazoo, MI.
We apologize for the lack of updates lately. Marie’s attorney and the US Attorney have been in negotiations for the majority of the summer. After months of soul searching, reflection, and consideration Marie has entered into a tentative agreement with the US Attorney plead guilty to three of the four charges she was originally charged with. The US Attorney has agreed to drop the remaining count. Her plea agreement calls for a prison sentence between 15 and 20 years.
