Could you please tell me if the 35% law for an aggravated assault charge is true and direct me where to find more information on this?

First, your friend was convicted of aggravated assault, IF he is serving time. He is not subject to 35%, because he is convicted of a serious offense against a person. Typically he will serve 90%. 35% is for theft, or possession of drugs, or forgery - nonviolent offenses.

Can I be arrested for theft with no evidence?

Answered by attorney Robert Jason De Groot (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at R. Jason de Groot, P.A.
This sounds like a good chance of getting the case dismissed for a lack of evidence, basically no probable cause. If you are charged, hire a private attorney, nothing else will do under these circumstances.

Did the police have the right to question my son without me when I clearly told officer I was on my way and did they have a right to arrest him?

In GA, 17 is an adult, so police do not need to wait, but I suspect that you are not in GA. Wherever you are, you need an attorney.
