Legal Question in Criminal Law in Louisiana

How long will my friends boyfriend be in jail for? She cant talk to him, but she called bail bonds, and they said he was charged for destruction of private and public property and the person he was with had drugs. He keeps calling her from a corrections facility. This is his first time being arrested. And they said we can bail him out for 175$. So how long would the judge sentence him for. Or will they just make him do community service, or house arrest, or probahtion? Please Help.

The trial can be weeks or months away. The sentence depends on the circumstances, amount of damage and drugs and the fact that he is a first offender. He should at least get the public defender but he needs an attorney.
