So heres my story ill try an keep it short. June 2005 me my friend and my othe friend freddy are drunk. one friend breaks into a house takes a laptop i stand by the door watch an get a house phone. then 3 hours later we see a store thats already been broken into an looted but we go in with 7 other people and freddy breaks over 1000$ worth of items. Later us 3 are arrested. Freddy rats everyone out and gets only burglary in the 3rd degree class D felony. Me an my friends get 2 counts burglary in the 2nd and 3 class C and Class D felonies. Now at the time this happened i was 18 and 3 months freddy was 17 and 11 months and my friend was 17 and 4 months. Well now its march 2006 an we are awaiting sentenceing. Me an my friend have clean records no priors. freddy has a misdeanor prior and recently 2 new class a misdemeanors for assault. I was told today we are looking at Youthful Offenders which means sealed record 6000$ restitution which should be only 1500$ but people are money hungry and i understand not a problem but. me and my friends are said were getting 5 years probabtion. while freddy will only get 3 years maybe and have it dropped to a misdemeanor. I asked to do community service to get recuced probation to 3 years they are saying no. I find this not fair and was wondering what your thoughts comments and any experience with such a case may be. thank you for anyone taking time to help out here.
