The police catch Tom after he robs a house and puts him in jail under suspicion. When taken to the court for arraignment the next day, they brief Tom about the charges filed against him. After this, Tom's attorney asks the court for bail. Because Tom has a prior criminal record, no job, and no family living in the area, the judge denies bail and rules that Tom must be in jail until sentencing. Before the case goes to trial, Tom is offered a plea bargain by the district attorney assigned to the case. Complying with the terms of the plea bargain, Tom pleads guilty and is sentenced to nine months in jail followed by a twelve-month probation period. According to the wedding cake model, Tom's crime can best be classified under ________.
