Billy and Josh have to report to jail by April 15 to begin their sentence.
The duo presented a plea deal back in November. However, since the judge said that the two should be punished with jail time for their actions, their legal team had to present a reworked plea deal on Monday.
In total, the Brown family members, including Billy’s wife, Ami Brown, were charged with 60 counts of theft and unsworn falsification in 2014. The family was accused of pretending to live in Alaska while they were reportedly actually residing in Texas, Colorado, Washington and Arkansas. However, as part of Billy and Josh's plea deal, the charges against the rest of their family members were dropped! What do you think about Billy and Josh’s sentence?
