Who cares if you pleaded guilty? You were filmed, dumbass.

Wachu gonna do, plea the fifth?

The judge apparently cared, hence why he got a light sentence. Now that the sentence is completed he's looking to go back on it.

Frankly he should get his day in court, and he should be sentenced again, based on his apparent lack of remorse.

Wasn't that the same judge that made sure his precious boy got his organic chicken tendies while awaiting his lenient sentence?

Yeah, let's have a judge look into whether he purgered himself on the stand to get a more lenient ruling.

It doesn't work that way. The only way he faces consequences is if he gets in trouble with the law again, in which case both prosecutor and judge will use it against him.

Probably for something stupid like clout. Pleading guilty is an admission of wrong doing, and most of these people think they did nothing wrong and it's all deep state coming for them.

A plea deal gets you a lighter sentence, so coming out against it now is not a good look and will bite him in the ass if he ever has trouble with the law in the future.
