According to Arizona Revised Statutes, an Arizona judge does not have the authority to modify the required jail time if a person is convicted of a DUI. There are mandatory sentence requirements that must be served and get very ugly for subsequent violations within the statutory window.

I also question the validity of this email. It doesn't make sense that this type of email would be made public. Since the judge has no leeway in this type of case, such an email has no value except to aggravate the judge. It might have had value with the prosecutor in a plea bargain, but once convicted, the judge cannot deviate from sentence requirements of the law.

The only good outcome of this is a "not guilty" finding.

Arizona Revised Statutes are available online.
