Will a teenager with no previous records really get any significant jail time that they'll actually end up serving for this crime?
Thing is, this is no petty crime. It's $4,500s worth and Jay even said the kid had repeatedly inquired about how much the nice wheels and rims cost. Plus, it's not like he saw four tires to the side and grabbed them in a spur of the moment thing... he brought tools and a friend along and took tires off a car and left it on cinder blocks.
This is some pretty serious shit if you ask me. Hmm, so maybe he would end up in jail. But I still don't think he'd actually spend any time in jail, just get scared real good going to court and whatnot.
To answer your first question, it's quite unlikely if this kid is as good as jay says. I was in the exact same scenario at the same age, ended up being charged with theft under $5000 went to court and all that. I had a nice judge who thankfully decided not to make an example out of me. In the end I had to pay for the stolen goods (oddly enough I didn't have to return them though) and do 50 hours of community service.
Replying to your third paragraph, I once missed a court date and had to spend from about 8am to 8 pm in lockup, it was terrible, some of the people you meet in there are pretty messed up. Oh ya I got scared real real real real good.
Edit : should I add i voted do the dealership work and not go to court, he made a mistake and i guarantee its the last time he will do anything like this.
