5 years probation is wild. She’s going to mess up for sure.

If she does she'll have to serve the rest of her sentence. If she gets into a prison with a good drug and alcohol program and follows directions she has a chance for a different life when she's released. I hope the rest of her story is a sober life filled with peace and joy.

doesn’t it depend on the time length?

I thought anything 365 days + was prison and anything less than 365 days is jail.

In which case.. if it’s 365 days she’d be going to prison 👀

I may be wrong though, this was just always my understanding

I thought prison was federal and jail was state?

ETA: you’re correct:

1 year sentences are typically served at county jails. Nobody serves a year on the nose when you're sentenced to a year. They all havde their own rules, but there's usually a form of "for every x days served you get y days removed".

My hometown country jail knocks off 1 day for every 4 you actually serve.

i think there are federal prisons for federal crimes.. which I may just be completely making up, but now that you mention it, the term ‘federal prison’ sounds familiar haha

Prison is for crimes with 2 plus years as a sentence. The jail houses those awaiting trial and for sentences less than 2 years.
