Question: What is the punishment for a class two felony "Theft"?
Answer: Arizona Revised Statutes (ARS 13-701) sets the recommended prison sentence for a first offense for a Class 2 felony at five years.
To be considered a Class 2 felony, the value of the property stolen would be greater than $25,000 (ARS 13-1802).
If the convicted criminal has prior convictions, the sentence jumps up to 9 1/4 years with a maximum of 18 1/2 years (ARS 13-604).

Hi Jason from AZ,
I am from AZ too. I turned myself into the Police yesterday and Detective Jorge said I had committed a class 2 Felony. I committed Credit Card Fraud etc in Highschool between 93 and 97. I guess the statuete of limitations is only 7 years so that got me off the hook for now. I am glad I seem to have escaped immediate punishment, but I will do my best to make right what I did wrong. I would be interested to hear more about the restitution you have to do. Most people don't have $100,000+ dollars laying around.
Take care
Andrew
