Your son's charge is a jailable offense. You are correct that as a first offender he is likely eligible for probation/boot camp/alternative sentencing but this will be very fact specific to the case. It will depend on many factors.
Your son should have an attorney present to negotiate a favorable outcome for him.
feel free to contact me if you'd like to discuss your matter further
good luck
