Coughlin: Settlement of RCR11-063341, RCR12-
065630 and RCR12-067980
From: Leslie, Jim (Jleslie@washoecounty.us) This sender is in your safe list.
Sent: Fri 8/24/12 11:16 AM
To: 'Zach Coughlin' (zachcoughlin@hotmail.com)
Mr. Coughlin:

As I had noted earlier, I had relayed the offer you had sent for a settlement. You
had sent it to Zach Young directly, as well as me and other recipients. I then
forwarded your email offer to Mr. Young and asked him to reply.

Mr. Young took the position that any prior State offers had been rejected by you
or had expired by their terms or by virtue of lapse of reasonable time.
Nevertheless, he has replied indicating willingness to settle as follows:

The entry of plea pursuant to this settlement must occur in Reno Justice Court no
later than Monday August 27, 2012.

The plea would be to two misdemeanor disturbing the peace charges, one such
charge in RCR11-063341 (the iPhone case) and once such charge in RCR12-
065630 (the 911 case);

Sentence would be 90 days jail on each charge, suspended and concurrent to
each other, with the following conditions: (1) obey all laws (except that the
parties agree that traffic violations do not constitute violation of this condition),
(2) mental health counseling as recommended by your psychiatrist or mental
health treatment provider, with regular reports every 60 days for a period of one
year, (3) take medications and engage in counseling as recommended by said
psychiatrist or mental health treatment provider.

In exchange for this plea settlement, the State will dismiss RCR12-067980
(resisting case).

Please note that Mr. Young was emphatic that this plea settlement must be
entered by the August 27, 2012, expiration date or it is rescinded. The August 29

Time is of the essense, since any settlement must be entered at RJC by monday,
so please reply via email with your acceptance and I will set up a hearing for
