Q: My friend was charged with possession of schedule 1&2 drugs possession of drug paraphernalia
And 14 counts of fraudulent use of credit/debut card $100 in 6 months and 2 counts of theft by receiving $2500 or more what kind of sentence is she facing and will she b ordered not to leave the state. And will her bond b high since she is from Louisiana with no ties in Arkansas all felony charges
A:
I would not venture a guess as to your friends exposure to incarceration without more facts. However, theft by receiving greater than $2,500 value is a class D felony generally. It has a potential for imprisonment for 0-5 years and/or a $10,000 fine.
If she makes bond several factors may come into play with regard to whether she can leae the State.
I do not have sufficient information to address the drug charges.
I would urge her to hire a lawyer.
