The sentences will not necessarily end at the same time even if they are running concurrent and given credit from time served from the same date that your brother took the plea in the original case.  Your brother, prior to being sentenced on the original case, may have had credit for time that he was in jail on the original case prior to entering the plea. If he was not in jail during the very same time on the new case, then the credit for time served would be different in the two cases.  Also, your brother upon being sentenced in the original case may have started getting some form of gain time on the original sentence.  It is unlikely that he will be given credit for that gain time on the new sentence even if it is concurrent.  It "may" be possible to negotiate some plea bargain that specifies the sentence on the new case will be co-terminous with the original case.  However, the wording for such a negotiated plea must be very specific and without question as to its meaning.  It may be hard to work out a plea bargain that accomplishes that. 

Mugshots can be embarrassing and humiliating, sometimes even costing you a job, because it implies that you are associated with some sort of criminal beghavior, even if you didn’t commit the crime, the State dropped the charges or were eventually found not guilty at trial. The first thing to do is to get the record sealed or expunged, meaning it's no longer "in the public domain" and therefore not newsworthy. Getting the mugshot companies to remove the image is a challenge even with a law on the books allowing you to sue them if it's not removed. The problem is serving them with a lawsuite, since most mughshot companies are based off-shore. An attorney can assist you with some parts and coordinate efforts with mugshot removal/reputation management caompanies.
