We certainly can't tell the circumstances and I bet you can't either. She needs a lawyer BIG TIME with those charges. Frankly, I think the felony is "trumped up" a bit if the sole basis for that is the pepper spraying. This doesn't by itself constitute the "serious bodily injury" component of 18 PaCS 3701. She appears to be guilty of the other two charges (which as first degree misdemeanors are bad enough). Further, the fact that she already has been given ARD sort of precludes it from being offered again at this point and frankly, she's likely to get the DUI charge reinstated because she violated the ARD probation.
You didn't mention as to whether she was convicted before on those DV charges. Even without priors, she'd likely be going to prison on the Robbery charge. With priors she's right in the boundary between RS (probation) and jail time on the misdemeanors alone. The time she could get (without the felony) is probably in the range of 2.5 years. I wouldn't be surprised at six months.
She NEEDS a lawyer.
