If you can afford to hire a good lawyer, it would likely be worth it. A lawyer can negotiate with the DA and try to work out a more favorable outcome.
You'll probably have to pay some fines and fees and restitution to kohls- last I dealt with kohls, they charge $250 for restitution.
Arrested by border patrol? Sounds like this will be a federal case and I've never heard of "probation" for someone carrying 50 lbs of marijuana...
I would call a local criminal defense lawyer who has a good reputation and get some decent advice ASAP. Could be legit or could be a scare tactic....
You may want to order your RAP sheet from the doj to see what that says and then also speak to an immigration lawyer.
He should apply for the public defender.
If he failed to show up for court he likely has an outstanding warrant. He should contact a local attorney ASAP.
Hire a lawyer to go to court and get your warrant recalled and try and resolve the case.
You could always go see the judge and ask if he would convert it to a civil judgement.
