Need advice from the wise, at least far more wise than I. Please consider this as a hypothetical situation as I would not want anyone to mistake this as having information to do with a crime. Someone I love has been charged with Burglary, Felony Thef and Felony damage to property. Has worked hard everyday, is 49 years old, first offense. Was fired from the job, lost a home, had no many to feed two children and a wife. He ran out of gas close to the previous employer and knew he could get some there. The four of them left the state. 4 months later, they separated. She left the state, called her ex-husband (who she had been sleeping with in the few months prior to this event), and made arrangements to give him the last of their 6 children together. She then gave him what may have been some of the items taken from this location where a burglary and theft occured and also the location where her current husband had been employed and was wrongfully terminated. After termination he then was denied unemployment benefits during an appeal process that the company lost even after two appeals. By this time he had lost his home and was in a desparate situation. At the scene, it appeared that a safe was missing, the company reports 6K+in cash (and the books on the cash-the only two things in the safe), however it is believed that the amount was more like $1,200-$1,500. Some tools, and there was damage to computers in the office, a dark substance had been poured on them. This evidence was provided by his wife to her ex-husband who waited until the detective called him about a month later to turn it in to the police. The investigation by the insurance company determined that this was a crime committed by someone who currently worked for the company. Although his wife's ex-husband worked for that company, he had not worked there in nine months. He had no access to this building. There are many other details, too many to list. Could someone please direct me to where to learn about these charges, what is the likely outcome if he turned himself in? What is the maximum penalty? Any other information or advice would be sincerly appreciated.
