If it can be proven that the owner knew of the existance of the drugs in the home, the owner could be charged too.

You should hire a lawyer who can arrange your surrender. If you don't show up for court when scheduled then you can be charged with bail jumping (even though you were ROR'D. That will just add to your problems.

What kind of sentence could he be looking at for stealing from a department store?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Stephen Lewis Freeborn (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Freeborn Law Offices P.S.
Based upon the amount stolen, this appears to be a Class C felony, punishable by up to 5 years in prison. There is no mandatory minimum jail time, so he could conceivably get a suspended sentence , which means all (or a portion) of jail time is suspended for a period of time (at least 2 years) subject to compliance with probation requirements. The question I would have in making such a determination is was the $6500.00 stolen in a single lump sum, or was it stolen over a period of time. If it was the latter, then it appears that the pattern may have been to keep doing it until caught. This person should really consult with, and retain, the services of an attorney. This is very serious as a felony conviction may effect future employability, and if going to college, could impact loan, scholarship, and financial aid eligibility.
