I can't say.  Since this is her second violation she'll more than likely have her probation revoked and have to serve out her sentence for the initial charge (you'd know better than I as to what that sentence was).  She will then have to serve anytime given for the shoplifting charge; since I don't have the details of that charge I can't tell as what the penalties would be.  Know this, since she is now a repeat offender they will not likely show her any leniency; especially in light of all of her probation violations.
