Re: thieft
Hello there,
The case at hand is what is qualified as a state jail felony in Texas. It has a punishment range any where from six months to two years in a state jail facility.
However, if your son has multiple thefts they can enhance the punishment range even higher.
Here in Smith County one individual received seventeen years for stealing a candy bar due to his lengthy record or thefts.
Sincerely,
