Jehmehh answered Tuesday July 22 2008, 4:48 pm: Grand theft auto? That's pretty serious. I guess it all depends on where you are but that could land you a good 2 years in prison...but over 20 cars?! That's definitley a felony, so that could possibly make it a lot longer.
Now on top of that, the gun charges. With a felony weapons offense and sentenced to prison, the judge will choose from three prison terms: "low-term", "mid-term", and "high-term". For example, for an assault with an assault weapon, the low-term is four years in prison, mid-term is eight years and high-term is twelve years. With no criminal record, the sentence would most likely be four years.
Now like I said, it could be different in various places, but basically your boyfriend made some dumb moves and he's definitley gonna pay for them. [ Jehmehh's advice column | Ask Jehmehh A Question ]
