Wow! So sorry to hear this. Wish I knew what to tell you. Does he have a lawyer? If he or you can't afford one, he can have one appointed to him. I hope he can learn his lesson with a minimal amt. of punishment. Good Luck.

Burglary is defined differntly by each state, normally just the intent to take something or other wording is included. Also who got stitches and how, if this was a victim it can be a lot more seroius.

As for bail, has he had his first hearing, normally bail will be assigned at that hearing. He needs an attorney.
