Later on, he visited his parents, and his mother had called the authorities to come and pick him up. He ended up in prison. However, there was a large question of how George was able to jump bail as he was already sentenced to two years. This is not how this would work ordinarily. Usually, the bail is set for the defendants who are awaiting trial and had not yet been sentenced. Then, after an individual has already been sentenced, they usually begin their incarceration right then and there. It is highly unusual that George was able to walk free after getting his sentence. Sometimes a defendant may be able to walk free after he or she has been convicted before they are sentenced if they post bail. But rarely a defendant gets a sentence and is able to walk onto the street after this. So, this was a peculiarity of the film, and one aspect that did not seem entirely realistic. Another unrealistic issue with the movie is the fact that after George is finally found and begins to serve his time, he is apparently sentenced to 26 months. His original sentence, according to George himself when he came out on the street and encountered Barbara who told George that she was dying, was 24 months. This would mean that even though George had jumped bail and had been hiding from the authorities for the previous two years, he only got two months added onto his sentence. It seems as if jumping bail should have been an additional charge that George would have had to face which would mean that he would have to be sentenced for that charge as well. However, it did not show that George had to stand trial nor be sentenced on his bail-jumping, and he only had to serve two extra months for what should have been considered to be a serious crime. Perhaps, the movie simply did not show that George was re-sentenced or charged with the crime of bail-jumping. it seems that George did not face this extra crime if he did not really have to do too much extra time. There is another scene, later on, that also inexplicably features George jumping bail after being convicted of a drug-related offense. This was the scene after he and his party gets raided by the FBI. It was unclear exactly why the FBI was even surveilling George at this time as George had long since stopped the drug trade, so this was a question that was also left unanswered. However, George apparently gets convicted once again of distributing drugs, but again he becomes a fugitive. This seems especially unrealistic, considering that George had a history of being a fugitive so he should have been deemed a flight risk during this trial and been denied bail. Whether or not he got bail is not known. However, again he was seemingly able to be on the streets even after a conviction - this is doubly unrealistic. And he again gets a very light sentence – just three years. It is unclear what he was charged with and what he did wrong, but having already been convicted once of distributing drugs and apparently getting caught with a kilo of cocaine in his trunk, as he is on the run from another conviction, he would have to serve more than three years. After the previous lenient convictions it is especially mystifying that he finally got a sentence of 60 years for his final conviction. Compared to what he had done before, the conviction for his final act of drug distribution seems overly harsh.
