What's happens if you violate probation by commiting another crime ? (Second degree felony)?
I had a friend that I tried my hardest to help out. He was homeless and I fed him,let him wash his clothes , drove him to his odd jobs .. I did whatever I could to help him. My moms jewelry came up missing and she filed a report .after an investigation the detective found the pawn shop that he pawned the jewelry at and even pictures of him pawning it so he was arrested .. He was already on probation in another county and this violates his probation. So what happens next ? Will there be two different hearings? One to determine what happens to his probation ? And one trial for the theft of property ? If his probation is revoked does that mean he will have to serve the rest of his time plus time for the new charge ? I know I sound really ignorant but the truth is I'm young and I don't know anything about this. His girlfriend messaged me and asked me to drop the charges since the jewelry was recovered and she said that she would pay back whatever he received from the pawn shop.. What would you do ? My mom has moved on in life and isn't really worried about if so she left it up to me. But I'm scorned! I helped him when nobody else would ..not even his family

well He will definitely be going to jail for the probation violation and he will have the other charge He got caught good for him now he might be able to get off the drugs and booze and live life behind bars until he pays for what he did.

Were your mom to not continue to press charges and her testimony is needed for the case to go to trial, it's possible the District Attorney won't pursue the case and the charge against him will be dropped. Were this to happen, he won't have violated his probation because there was no evidence, your mother's testimony, of there being a crime committed. You are a good person to help a homeless person and he will be grateful for anything you do to help him so he stays out of jail or prison. I suggest you talk with him and make sure he wants you to help him or you'll just be spinning your wheels and accomplish nothing if he doesn't cooperate.

You helped him when no one else would and he repays you by stealing your mom's jewelry.
He isn't worth your efforts. (He's also on drugs, but you knew that already.)
He's got a family. He's got a girlfriend. It's time for them to step up. (Except the truth is they've already tried and failed.) He's in big trouble, and there's little you can do to help. Let the justice system play out.

why is he homeless, mental issues, drugs, alcohol? Until and unless he addresses the reason for his behavior, nothing you or his gf do will make any difference. Drop the charges and drop him. You can't help someone who won't help himself. All you will be to him is another sucker to be taken advantage of.
