Will a guilty plea affect my custody battle
Me and my ex husband are currently in a custody battle over our 4 year old daughter. It's been going on for several months now. I had an ex boyfriend named Keegan who I was on and off with. We had a break up two months ago but tried to stay friends. He had a really bad head injury from a motorcycle accident and asked for my help. I helped him and he was taking opioids for his injury. I was helping him one night. He took his medicine and was pretty high from his opioids and went to bed. We had talked about possibilities of getting back together. I ended up going to his bed and laying next to him and noticed he was hard. I started playing with him and then decided to wake him up by riding him. It took him so long to wake up and he was upset with me when he woke up and said he asked for my help. Not this and kicked me out. I was confused because we had spoken about the possibility of getting back together. While he was hurt and high on opioids probably wasn't a good idea which I understand but I didn't didn't expect him to try to ruin my life. He called me to talk about it and I gave my feelings and perspective but basically I did on that phone call admit to having sex with him in his sleep. What I didn't know was his mom(he's a huge momma's boy) convinced him to go to the police about rape and he worked with the police to get me on a recorded phone call. I have now been in this case along with a custody battle. I was recently offered a plea deal. If I plead guilty than I get 1 year probation along with community service and mandatory counseling. My lawyer thinks it could benefit me better than going to trial because if I'm found guilty in trial I'm looking at 2 years in jail. She said what's the most damning part of evidence is that phone call. If I plead guilty I'll have that on my record whereas if I go to trial and have a chance of being found not guilty than my record will be clean. If a plead guilty will it give my ex an upper hand in the custody battle? I think a lot of this is ridiculous. I can understand why my ex boyfriend is upset but he knows I'm going through a custody battle and painting me as a rapist. I want to do whatever will benefit my daughter the most
