text: For purposes of restitution, OCGA § 17–14–2(2)defines damages as “all … damages which a victim could recover against an offender in a civil action … based on the same act or acts for which the offender is sentenced[.]” When restitution is ordered for property that the defendant stole or destroyed, the correct determination for the amount of restitution is the fair market value of the property at the time of loss, rather than the original purchase price or replacement cost.
