    17 Year Old on Probation Gets a Drug Charge
    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Pennsylvania

    My nephew is 17, already on probation and just got caught shoplifting. They were going to let him go until the cop seached him and found a couple "bags" of opiates. He was takin into custody and is awaiting a court date. This is the first time he's been charged with drugs. But he has already been to a rehab which was court ordered last year. Does anyone have any idea what might happen to him at this point?

    Its up to the judge but I would suspect that he would be ordered to spend his original sentence in jail and whatever time in jail on the two new charges. He doesn't think the judge is going to slap him on the wrist and put him on probation again, doe's he?
