A question about the sentence


If Brandon committed this crime a few weeks after his 14th birthday, and he was denied bail from the onset of his arrest, then shouldn't he be released around his 35th birthday, not his 39th? I'm sure that even in plea deals, you are given credit for time served and he spent four years in jail awaiting trial and during the trial.

It's been a while since I saw the documentary but if I remember correctly he was granted bail but his family didn't have the money. I might be wrong though.

I wondered the same thing. Anyone knows?
