They will see you as nothing but another statistic, and will work tirelessly to bring you to the harshest penalty that they can. Depending on the crime you have been charged with, you will face anything from extended imprisonment, steep monetary fines, restitution paid to the victim or the family of the victim, mandatory enrollment in a drug or alcohol class, driver's license suspension, and the like.
