been around since the 80's. not used that much because if you ever had a drug case in your past, any guns involved or you fight the case you not eligible. where shit can get blurred, me and you got weight in the trunk and we get pulled over. it aint state it's feds. we go in, i say yeah you got us we was about to go flip that. i qualify, you say i don't know nothing about no drugs i'm innocent, it was an illegal stop etc just fighting the case all the way. they can use my statement that yes we did have drugs and hang you with it. in the state you can play that don't say nothing keep fighting the case and they will give you a plea bargain, that strategy will backfire on you in a fed case. no guns, no rico, no significant criminal history and there can be departures from the sentencing guidelines. none of that is proof he did or didn't snitch but some of y'all aint in the game like you on here trying to pretend if you acting like minimum mandatory are absolute in every single case
