X2-- Based upon the below information, I say let them do every weekend for the next year or two, doing community service.
"In 2011 2,266,800 adults were incarcerated in U.S. federal and state prisons, and county jails at year-end 2011 – about 0.7% of adults in the U.S. resident population."
"The United States has the highest documented incarceration rate in the world (743 per 100,000 population), Russia has the second highest rate (577 per 100,000), followed by Rwanda (561 per 100,000)|
"In 2007, around $74 billion was spent on corrections.[106] The total number of inmates in 2007 in federal, state, and local lockups was 2,419,241.[19] That comes to around $30,600 per inmate." WIKI
We must find an alternative. We can't afford these numbers.
P.S. We don't need a long, drawn out, and expensive trial either. There is video tape evidence and these guys have admitted doing the deed. Show the tape. Guilty. Start community service next weekend. Done.

Common sense solution. I get a huge chunk of my income by providing health care to the incarcerated and see the millions of our tax dollars keeping some of these petty criminals locked up. We "the land of the free" have the highest percentage of our population locked up than any other nation. It was wrong to knock over the rocks, it would be criminal to lock them up.
