Can the prosecutor willingly and knowingly lower charges to avoid three-strikes sentencing? Does your answer change if the question involves mandatory minimum sentencing? Explain your answer fully

Florida's three strikes law allows anyone convicted three times for certain felonies, including aggravated stalking or child abuse and murder, to be sentenced to life without parole. Billy, who has two prior convictions, one for aggravated stalking and child abuse, now faces a driving under the influence ("DUI") accident where a victim was severely injured. The prosecutor could charge Billy with murder. Billy would then eligible for "three-strikes sentencing." But the prosecutor likes Billy and agrees to a plea bargain where Billy agrees to plead guilty to reckless driving in exchange for a sentence of two years. When the victim's family learns of the plea deal, they are furious and appeal to a judge for help invalidating the prosecutor's decision to lower the charges. What will be an ideal response?
