Ryan Idol aka Marc Donais who was convicted of attempted murder with a toilet lid and 3 other felony charges last September 2010 is in jail but still not sentenced. On January 13, 2011 and instead of being sentenced, Idol requested a new trial, citing ineffective assistance of counsel. On December 9, 2011 Idol was scheduled for sentencing, instead of being sentenced Donais’ attorney asked to be withdrawn from the case, and the court granted the request. Now Idol has ben given a date of May 18, 2012 to appear in Department 40 of the Sacramento County Courthouse. At that time the decision will be made about whether to grant him a new trial. In the meantime, Donais continues to be held (without bail) at the Sacramento County Jail, with every day in custody applied to any sentence he might eventually be given. He doesn’t qualify for a percentage of time off for good behavior, due to the severe nature of his crimes. Donais could face up to 15 or more years in prison for the convictions.
