    Kwidzinski was dealing with the case for a year and a half before even getting to trial. After awhile, the worry and stress start to wear you down. During the year and a half waiting trial, Kwidzinski had watched the toll that stress took on his family, the money it cost for attorneys, and was made out to be “vilified in the papers and on the radio talk shows” (Bogira 334). Just like in the case of Troy Cameron, where he too was worn down through the typical grueling court procedures. Troy was actually sitting in jail for five months while awaiting his trial because, unlike Kwidzinski, Troy did not have money to even post enough for bail.

They decided the best case scenario would be to accept the plea and be guaranteed a less significant or better verdict.…
