Legal Question in Criminal Law in Pennsylvania
innocent armed robbery suspect
Although I think I'll be ok due to lack of evidence, I can't help but worry. What is the average sentence for armed robbery?

Re: innocent armed robbery suspect
In PA, sentencing depends most on your prior record. However, there are certain mandatory minimums in PA. Robbery F1 with a gun is either a 5-10 or a 10-20 year mandatory.
Feel free to email or call. Good Luck, Brian.
Re: innocent armed robbery suspect
Looking at a number of sources the overall average seems to be 8 years. Of course, if a firearm was involved, there is a mandatory minimum of 5 years and each case is dependent upon the facts, whether there's a criminal record, the Judge imposing the sentence and any number of other factors too numerous to list.
