A week after my first court appearance

Ive appeared at court for the first time since my arrest, which is now spanning some 4 months.  4 months of alot of sleepless nights, believe you and me.  But its giving me some good time to get my shit prepared...
in court i was charged with:

Class A with intent to supply X 1
Class A possession X 1
Class C with intent to supply X 2
Class C possession X 2.

Im going not guilty on the Class C's with Intent, so hopefully the prosecution will drop these based on having me on a Class A with intent, guilty plea bargain.  I have not entered a Plea at my first court appearance, as i have been advised to go "No Indication as to Plea" based on solictor advice, as the crown did not have all the evidence available, to bring forward.

I now have 3 more court dates, so it could take alot longer than i expected to be sentenced, upto another 5 long motherfukin months.  So by the time this is at the high court it will be upto 9 months from the date of crime for me to be sent down....talk about a waste of taxpayers money, they've had 4 months to bring a case against me properly when it is pretty blatant that i was dealing.

The prosecutor at the first appearance was a snotty nosed bitch, she was about 5'0 and subject to a very heavy pre-menstual episode, im not normally derogatory to women, but she didn't even look at me once during the whole proceeding, and blew everything out of proportion, trying to make me sound like some kind of kingpin Pablo Escobar with kilo's and kilo's of the shit.  Granted it weren't simple street dealing, but to seize my luggage scales from my house then ask how i got the money to pay for them when they were like 3.99 is ridiculous, what planet are these people on?....*sigh*

But i guess that is the job of the prosecution, they delve into every aspect and make it seem bigger to secure a longer conviction.  You shout at your dog "Animal Abuser", You cross the road before the little man turns green "Endangering Lives", You bump into a female in the street "Sexual Assault", i couldn't sleep at night doing that personally, but 'Kay Sera Sera', its upto the defence to play it down just as much, which is where the term comes into play "The Scales of Justice"

Im not gonna lie, this is all quite exciting even if one of the scariest things anyone could possibly go through.  Now its just a waiting game....
