his public defender is saying that he most likely get 9-16 months and he has already served 6 and has yet to be arraigned. he has no prior record and the robbery was unarmed. he supposedly got away with 7 grand. i was just wondering how realistic is it for him to get 9-16 months considering this crime? it seems like too much of a lenient sentence for a crime like this. please answer if u have knowledge of the law and please serious answers only!

If the public defender says 9-16 then he is probably right. Now if he's served 6, it is possible he could get off with time served and probation. I think that is a little low but, since this is his first crime and arrest, and it wasn't armed robbery, the judge could give him that sentence. Now, if you have a judge that is tough, and wants to charge him with grand larceny, since it was over a couple of hundred dollars and into the thousands, then it will probably be longer.

Now he's robbing banks in Lancaster? You would think he'd be getting a lot more than 7 grand each time he robbed a bank. What is this now -- number 6? He better be careful or he's going to get his bail removed. What? You don't find this a serious answer?

I am aspiring to be a lawyer and that punishment seems too lenient. If he robbed that bank, he deserves at least 5-10 years in prison.

it is realistic sentence. By the time they get around to trying him he will probably get off with time served - meaning he has already served the perscribed sentence before the trial and does not need to do more

You should be surprised he isnt getting more than that! They could really nail him. Any type of robbery could easily be 2 years.
