It is certainly possible you could get in trouble for it - even if that seems unfair.  I suppose you could be charged with Theft if the police beleived you did not have authority to take it.  There is also a crime of "False Information to a Pawn Broker" depending on what you said on the paperwork filled out for the pawn broker.  But having the text that apparently says you can pawn the computer to cover part of his rent is important, depending on exactly what it says.

All deferred sentences are subject to various terms and conditions. Some are standard, such as not engaging in illegal activities. Other common requirements include random drug testing, payment of costs and restitution and maintaining employment. Additional conditions, more specifically tailored to the type of offense involved and history of the offender, may also be imposed. Deferred sentences can be supervised or unsupervised. Supervised sentences generally carry greater restrictions, similar to those of standard probation. They can include regular reporting to a probation officer, restrictions on travel, curfews, and more. Typical travel restrictions include a requirement that you obtain your probation officer's approval before leaving the state. You should have received a copy of the conditions at the time the court approved the deferred sentence. If you didn't receive a copy, or can't find it, you can contact the court as there should be a copy in your court file. You should also be able to obtain a copy from the Probation Department and/or your attorney. I recommend you not leave the state before checking whether you are required to obtain advance permission. Violating the terms of a deferred sentence can result in the filing of a petition to revoke it. If revoked, the court can impose any sentence allowed for the crime to which you pleaded guilty, and you will have a permanent conviction on your record.
