“"`As this court, per presiding Judge Bowen, noted in Kresler v. State , 462 So.2d 785 , 789 (Ala.Crim.App. 1984): "`"The [trial] court is in the best position to ascertain the facts, assess the intent of the parties under the plea agreement and, if it was breached, to exercise its discretion and fashion an appropriate remedy. Quoting, United States v. Swinehart , 614 F.2d 853 , 859 (3rd Cir.), cert. denied, 449 U.S. 827 , 101 S.Ct. 90 , 66 L.Ed.2d 30 (1980)." "`Certainly, the trial court, in this case, was in a much better position to ascertain the facts and determine the intent of the parties. We find nothing in the record on appeal which discredits the trial court's decision that no plea bargain agreement existed.' " Fuller [ v. State , 481 So.2d 1178 , 1181 (Ala.Crim.App. 1985)]."”
