Holy shit, his plea deal was 5 years? He's about to get fucked unless the judge is a Trump appointee.

Edit: His Judge is Christopher R. Cooper, an Obama Appointee

Judge Christopher R. “Casey” Cooper was appointed to the District Court in March 2014.

Obama appointee. Bigo can just fuck right off.
