Hi Garrett, the release process for a juvenile can depend on several factors:

In Ohio, your friend's charges are serious:
- First degree burglary is a felony
- Misdemeanor assault and domestic violence are less severe, but still serious
Her prior clean record may help. Legal representation is crucial. Consider contacting a local attorney for specific advice.
do you think she will get out? or do you think she will do time?
It's hard to predict exact outcomes as it depends on the court's discretion, evidence, representation, etc. In Ohio, even first-time offenders can face severe consequences. She needs strong legal representation. A consultation with an attorney would be beneficial.

In Ohio, potential penalties are:
- First-degree burglary: * to 11 years imprisonment.
- Misdemeanor assault: up to 6 months in jail.
- Misdemeanor domestic violence: up to 6 months in jail.
These are maximum sentences. Actual sentence depends on court's decision considering all factors. Legal representation is recommended.
how can they charge her with first degree burglary if nobody was seriously injured or stolen or broken
In Ohio, first-degree burglary can be charged if someone trespasses in an occupied structure with the intention to commit any criminal offense, not just theft. Physical harm or property damage isn't necessary for the charge. Legal counsel can provide more specific information.
