Harrell sentenced Foriest as a habitual offender to a mandatory 20-year term in the custody of the Mississippi Department of Corrections. Because Foriest is a habitual offender, which means he has at least two prior felony convictions, he will serve the sentence day for day without the possibility of parole or any type of early release.
