Well she can be charged with the following crimes: Burglary if they can prove she entered with the intent to commit a theft; Petty theft; and even a conspiracy to commit a burglary or theft but I have never seen a prosecutor file such a charge in these type of cases. More than likely they will file a petty theft. They might offer her informal diversion or they can allow her to plea to an infraction if the item was less than $50. If they do neither she will probably just get credit time served and short probation.
