Ralo has been in Federal prison since 2018, awaiting trial on charges that he trafficked about $2 million worth of weed from California to Atlanta.
He recently stated that he would be home in October of 2023.
That doesn't seem to be the case.
Ralo recently took a plea bargain and his legal team is asking for eight years. Taking into account his time served, that would have him coming home around 2027.
Prosecutors have already agreed with the nine-year sentence. But a judge has to sign off on it.
“The sentence of 108 months, which is a joint recommendation in the Plea Agreement, accomplishes the defined purposes of sentencing in that the imprisonment term provides deterrence, protects the public and reflects the seriousness of the offense,” Ralo’s legal team argued. “Importantly, it is sufficient but not greater than necessary to comply with the purpose of sentencing. Undersigned counsel cannot imagine where he would be in life’s journey if he was neglected and relegated to live alone in an abandoned home at age twelve (12).
The expectation is the judge will approve the sentence. But if he doesn't, it will likely be for more time.
