My best guess is a felony conviction with no more than a year (probably six months) in the county pokey with another 5 years of probation.

Not that that is right or wrong, just a guess. Let's see how close I am.

You'er *probably* right, but in my neck of So. Cal the DA doubles down
when a burglar takes guns. State Pen. and more than a year in
custody, even for a first offense. (I see him at the local shooting
range from time to time.)

Since when does the DA establish the sentence? In most states the judge does that.
