Last hearing dropped a bomb. Judge Engelmayer made it crystal clear—he's the one calling the shots on sentencing. And today? Dude looked skeptical as hell about whether this plea deal actually makes sense.

Here's the kicker: before any deal was struck, the technical maximum sentence sat at 25 years. That's the number hanging in the room while everyone's trying to figure out what happens next.

Where is the 25-year ceiling? The judge's attitude... it's a bit uncertain.

ngl, judge's skepticism is the real tea here. that 25-year ceiling actually matters way more than people think—it's the mathematical constraint everyone's dancing around, technically speaking.

Oh, this judge really isn't easy to fool... 25 years hanging over our heads, how much room for negotiation could there be?

NGL, the judge's attitude is basically saying "I don't buy this deal," with the 25-year sword hanging there.

Been hanging there for 25 years, I really can't understand the judge's expression, feels like it's going south.
