my bf is 17 and i really want to know what is going to happen when he goes to court. he wasnt driving the car, but he was in it, and he was also the oldest in the car. The car was returned. They have released the younger two boys but soon after they were released, they came and got him. he didnt go the same place they did, he went to JAIL! no Juvie! but what do you think will happen? we live in Georgia, so whats the Ga Law on that? whats the worst that could happen? P.s he will be 18 in 2 months, does that change anything?

Hopefully more than the big nothing that happens to car theives in Washington State!
Car theft is a FELONY even if the car was returned. And if you are IN a car that is stolen, you are as guilty as the guy who drove it!
Car theft is not taken seriously in my state. Hopefully it is taken more seriously in GA, and that your boyfriend is convicted of his participation in a FELONY act. He should get 90 days of community service at the minimum with a weekend in jail for good measure.
Sorry, no sympathy here. I had a car stolen and messed up by the punks!

Sorry but he is screwed if he went to jail. It will be in his records unless he gets it anulled in ten years or by petition. Anyway, if his case goes on for 8 months then hell be classified as an adult. Unless he pleas. Chances are theyll slap him on the hand.
Notty notty!

in view of the fact your b,f, is almost 18 and should have known better, and if the judge doe.s as our great leader gov, would want them to do he would probable get about 30 days in the ELECTRIC CHAIR,
