Legal Question in Criminal Law in California

Posession of Stolen Vehicle

My soon to be ex-wife is going to court in San Mateo County tomorrow, a pre-trial hearing. She is charged with (1) count of posession of Stolen Vehicle, (1) count posession of stolen property. I'm assuming the the aressting officeers were being creative with there writing and both charges mean the same. What type of sentence is she looking at? She was on court probation for trespassing and to my knowledge has no major charges agianst her. She is currently in jail on this charge.

Possession of a stolen vehicle is not necessarily that same as possession of stole property. She may have had stole property in the stolen vehicle or her home. Based on the information you provided indicates that there is a high probability that she will go to prison. She could be sentenced to more than three years.
