What charges could i get?
Answer: Arizona recognizes the taking of property (including money) belonging to another with the intent to deprive the other person of such property under Arizona Revised Statutes section 13-1802 as Theft. Under the same statute, section E., theft is classified as a class 6 felony if the amount taken is greater than $250.00 but less that $1,000.00 and the crime is committed by an adult. Arizona law will apply juvenile procedure if the case is committed by a juvenile and will classify the crime as described under the adult criminal code as described above. (A.R.S. § 13-1802)

you're in deep.
sorry man.
Get a good lawyer, ASAP, a good lawyer can make a 5 year sentence into a year (figuratively, not literally) but you know what I mean.
It depends if you're an adult, too.
Plead guilty, be nice to all judges, admit everything, judges like honesty (cause they dont see much of it)
