Her name is mud now whether or not she has a record. All a potential employer has to do is Google her name (and bet most employers do that).

Exactly, the cost is already massive in comparison to the actual crime that occurred. Did she act foolishly, undoubtedly. Was it a crime, most definitely. Does it necessitate a criminal record that closes even more doors than have already been closed. I don't think so. At this stage I have no doubt that she has already learned her lesson and there is no point to any further punishment.
As per your prior post I do think that the actual items stolen does play a part in this, if she tried to torch a police car. Yeah that would be different. If she initially broke the windows.
