What Aggravated Robbery Means In Texas
Under Texas law, a robbery becomes aggravated when the offender causes serious bodily injury, uses or exhibits a deadly weapon, or targets certain protected victims. It is a felony-level offense that carries a potential sentence ranging from five to 99 years, or life in prison, depending on enhancements and prior convictions, according to the Texas Penal Code and legal summaries.
