Would I go to jail?

Asked on Jul 21st, 2021 on Criminal Law - Florida
More details to this question:
To whom it may concern. This is my situation I am currently on misdemeanor probation for larceny in the state of Florida right now and anyways, I was at Walmart awhile back like 4 months or so ago and I got caught stealing. I ended up going to jail and bonded out that same day. I went to court and got put on probation. I was trasepassed from Walmart and then me being a dumbass excuse my language I went back to Walmart and went to steal again and got caught. I didn't go to jail the cop's just gave me a ticket or whatever it is and now I have a court date coming up the 27th. Will I more then likely be going to jail? Since I'm already on probation for stealing the first time.

The final answer could depend on a number of factors (e.g., the town/county in which you were charged; the assigned prosecutor; the defense attorney's ability to negotiate with the assigned prosecutor, including for a lesser charge, etc.). However, based on the facts you provided, the answer regarding whether you will receive a jail sentence is almost assuredly "yes."  So even if you consider the above-listed factors, it is more likely that your attorney will end up negotiating the length of the jail sentence rather than whether you go to jail.
