  • Like when someone is walking and suddenly Someone shows you a gun and says to empty your pockets?

    I doubt that it's Armed robbery.

    One more thing. If you are caught doing that and you are like 19 or 20, how much time will they have be put away for?


  • It is definitely armed robbery and if the thief is caught, five years in the state pen sounds about right and if a repeat offender give him ten years.


  • It's known as armed robbery, but when the criminal complaint is filed, it is called robbery with the use of a deadly weapon. The 'use of a deadly weapon' adds time to the sentence from the 'robbery' charge.
    I believe every state considers someone 19-20 and adult. Each state has a different rule for what the sentence can be for any particular charge.


  • oh yes it is armed robbyery and depending on judge and record you could do some times


  • mugging?


  • It's like when we have an illegal impostor win the presidency. See this, you'll see what I mean:

  • it IS armed robbery, doesn't mean he has to point it at you to rob you. As far as the laws are, it depends on the judge, plea bargains, police records, state you live in, etc, etc, etc. to determine how much time he would serve.


  • If you are robbed by a person carrying a lethal weapon, it is an armed robbery. Even if the person walks in with his hand in his pocket and tells you he has a gun and will shoot you and puts you in fear, its armed robbery.
