Level three carries a maximum sentence of 5 years in prison or 5 years of probation and a fine of up to $5,000. The woman was charged with aggravated burglary. Since she was on probation, the incident violated her probation and she was sentenced to 365 days in county jail. After all, the things that don't lose value, only the dignity is gone.
