got you n trouble this summer I am a combat war veteran Isn't I like to drink I got.aggravated dwi but a few months later I walk ed home with a friend we allegedly lit a newspaper on fire charged with petty larceny offered a plea deal of dwai and petty larceny 3 years probation just wondering if arson would be.a better charge to plea to ....nobody likes a thief
My lawyer is looking into veterans court to.see what they will do but if push comes to plea should I take petty larceny or arson in the 5th
A: I think that if would all depend on the facts of the case and what your attorney says. This is rather difficult to answer just to say that you should consider everything very carefully before you take any plea at all.
