Server Suggestion Grand Larceny Law Addition

[Auston]

Suggestion Title: Grand Larceny Law Addition
Suggestion Description: Grand Larceny as defined is : theft of personal property having a value above a legally specified amount.


Add a Grand Larceny charge for theft over a $10,000 value (Vehicles, guns, etc) with a harsher jail sentence than standard 11.6 Theft. (6 Years, $6000 suggested)

This would be realistic as currently if someone steals a vehicle, or a can of beans they can face the same jail time.

My suggestion would be to move Arson to 11.12, and replace 11.7 with "Grand Larceny"

Why should this be added?:
- Adds realism and balance to theft charges
- Makes it more of a risk to attempt to steal higher value items

What negatives could this have?:
- Issues with proving certain items are a certain value

What problem would this suggestion solve?: Higher level thefts not facing a proportionate amount of punishment

Won’t every car theft become a shootout due to this? At this point this is major sentencing.

6.5 and 12.12 are bad enough to be hit with, we don’t need a 6k 6y sentence for lockpicking a car.

The examples given for 3.4 specify crimes with jail sentences of 7+ years as valid reasons for shooting cops.

This needs to be a thing so badly, after the introduction of chop shop the simple theft charge is not enough IMO or even 6.9. I disagree with the ticket price however, it should be 8k max ticket 6 years
