A judge ruled against Charlie Adelson's request for resentencing based on a scoring error in his case. Despite two errors identified in his scoresheet, Judge Stephen Everett stated that these did not affect Adelson's final sentence, as the sentence imposed did not reference the scoresheet. This decision underscores the importance of due process in the legal system. The ongoing saga continues as Adelson's mother, Donna, faces her own impending trial for murder and conspiracy.
Judge Stephen Everett issued the order last week, saying while there were two errors on Adelson's scoresheet it did not affect his ultimate sentence.
When the Court imposed its sentence, it did not refer to or mention the scoresheet at all, demonstrating the Court was not relying on the computation of the lowest permissible prison sentence.
Due process is a vital part of our justice system, it is a win for the process that his objections were heard and handled in a reasonable time frame.
This isn't the end of the overall saga - Charlie's mother, Donna Adelson, still has to sit through being tried for murder and conspiracy.
