She was given an 11-month, 29-day probationary sentence and must make $10 restitution to the victim. She was also assessed a $75 plus court costs fine, that amount far higher than the $10 worth of bows she stole.According to sheriff’s investigator Aaron Roberts, Drake can be seen on surveillance camera, pulling up to the front door of Depot Bottom Country Store just after 10 p.m., long after the store was closed for the day.
