Best Answer

Robbery

Additional: A robbery is a crime against persons which, by definition, is effected by force or by weapon, both of which can injure or kill the victim.

Conversely, Burglary, while it IS a felony offense, is a crime committed against property. The actual victim(s) are typically not present at the time the offense is committed.

What is a sentence for vandalism and theft if you are a minor?

Vandalism is very bad thing to doIf u are a minor, u are not of age to drive.ANS2:I can't disagree that those are two sentences using "vandalism" and "if you are a minor". My guess is that you probably want to know what penalty a minor can be sentenced to for vandalism and theft. There is really no good answer to this because it depends on so many things that you haven't included: First offense?How old are you?Have you made restitution?What was the value or cost of the damage?Were there mitigating factors?Are you mentally defective?Was the offense aggravated by some other factor?What was the nature of the vandalism? (Spray painting hate speech will be worse than spray painting a picture of your school's mascot.)Were you coerced into doing it by somebody who is an adult?What country do you live in? There are some places where they will lop off your right hand for theft.The judge will look at the argument and decide what punishment the crime deserves. If you are adjudicated as a minor, your incarceration (probably) won't last beyond your 18th birthday.

Grand larceny punishment worse then burglary?

Both are distinctly different and separate crimes. Both are covered under different statutes. All states have different wording, classifications, and penalties. Larceny is a theft of property of value (without violence). Burglary is the unlawful entering (with or without force) AND theft of property of value. Depending upon the state's laws the penalty may differ if the entered property was occupied or unoccupied, AND whether the entry took place during daylight or nighttime.
