Depending on the total value of whatever she is found to have stolen she could be charged with Petty Larceny, a misdemeanor or Larceny a Felony. This depends on the laws in the state you reside in as they differ from state to state.
If your friend if a juvenile, under 17, the state has the option of referring the matter to family court should Walmart decide to press charges. Family court has many different way of handling juvenile problems.
If charged as an adult and charged with a misdemeanor it would be handled in District court where she could be fined, given community service, probation, jail time any or all of the above. Should the charge be larceny the same results are possible just the punishment is harsher as in longer and fines are higher. She would also most likely be made to repay Wal-Mart for what she stole. I'm sure Wal-Mart would also ban her from their stores ]
