A couple of weeks ago I was wandering around Macy's just needing to get out of house and looking for summer clothing. I had a lot going on lately, was exhausted and had several errands to run. I saw some cookware that I llked when I first entered the store and went back and picked it up. No cashiers in the area and I realized I hadn't looked in adjacent area for summer clothes so took it with me. Stopped to look at a couple of blouses when i realized the time. I needed to take my medication, eat lunch, still more errands, etc. and I walked out of the store with almost $200 set of kitchenware. LP guy grabbed me from behind and I realized what I had done. I tried to tell him I had been going through H__ with my daughter lately. She had just gotten out of hospital from a severe beating husband had given her, CPS is investigating, etc., my brother-in-law had just passed away, etc. I would never intentionally take anything, I volunteer at my church constantly, they wouldn't listen. They told me they were going to collect some information and it would take about 20 minutes. 2 hours later they called police and had me arrested. I kept telling them I had to call and have my granddaughter picked up from school as I have custody, they didn't care, wouldn't let me have my cell phone, etc. I'm handicapped, wouldn't let me go to bathroom without begging as I was about to be sick,etc. Nobody knew where I was for over 7hours but the police did let me make one call to get her taken care of. I saw an attorney last week and he wanted $1500 and another $850 for a polygraph. Does this sound up and up? I don't have this kind of money and I honestly didn't mean to do this. I take all kinds of drugs for a back injury and I was upset. I would never take anything! Should I try another attorney?? Don't know what to do but know I need to do something pretty quick.
