You physiclly lowered a price or did not scan an itme, doesn't amtter if you know the customer or not. I've had many "sweetheart" deals where the employee was just mad at the store so they discounted/lowered items. I'd get a lawyer if I were you.

Ignoring LP is never a good idea. You got lucky at a "hands off" store. where some store would had put you down and handcuffed you.

Re: fired for theft. Forced to admit to additional crim idid Did they hold a gun to your head? how were you "forced" and using your "condition" as a crutch is not an answer.

If your brother wants to play this game he is going to lose. He will avoid the police, they'll swear out a warrent then pick him up at school or at home and he can sit in a jail cell. He screwed up, he made an adult decision, time to face the adult punishment. And tell him the "Thats not me on...

Re: Arrested At Store Name So you "forgot" to pay for a $200 item? You know who else forgot? Everyone I've arrested in 14 years. A bit of advice, when you go to court, don't give the excuses, the judge has heard them all before. Work with a public defender and try to get diversion.

Yeah, real cruel, such a shame thieves can't get a job and rip off the next buisness. :D

You gave them a wrong address, you played the game, you lost, now they want $585. It doesn't matter you never got the 1st letter. Pay the $585 or they'll sue, and garnish your wages.

Since you're a minor, your parents are responable for the civil demand. If they refuse to pay the $500 the store will sue them, add court costs and lawyer fees, could be $1500+

Awww, is the theif offended? Sorry, you have to earn my respect, its not something you can STEAL.

Says the thief. Try being the person/place being stolen from you'd change your turne real quick. And theft is not a real big problemin Saudi Arabia, since you either never do it twice, or are smart enough to not do it in the 1st place for fear of losing a hand. Perhaps they have the right idea.

Every shoplifter I arrest tells me this or something like this.

The court gave you a chance with Diversion. You obviously didn't learn anything from it and stole again, they will see this and will now throw the book at you.

You will be judged by the company you keep. Its a private business, you were with someone stealing, they have every right to ban you.

Nothing just "Vanishes" from your record, plus you name goes in a database store use when hiring. That won't go away for several years.

Each case is diffrent, each judge is diffrent, each DA is diffrent. You might get a judge or a DA who decide to teach you a lesson and give you some jail time or a fine. Also it will go on your record, so unless you enjoy flipping burgers (if your lucky) I'd look into diversion.
