Well, well, well... someone did his research. Someone also doesn't understand sarcasm.

Someone doesn't understand his next shoplifting charge will cost him a ton of money and his medical licenses....

Coming from a shoplifter himself, so to speak. Ahem* Ahem*

I learned my lesson. You haven't.

Ps...it's HERSELF.

And how do you know in fact that I haven't learned my lesson. How do I know you yourself haven't learned your own lesson? That's the thing about assumptions, ma'am. ;)

Smart asses usually go too far. I have not met one person from Illinois that doesn't know that we don't have DA's, we have ASA's. Show me a statute in the ILCS that turned a misdemeanor charge into an ordinance violation. Thirdly, retail theft can be expunged, but you'd have to wait 5 years, not two. You're sounding like more like troll than anything right now.

4.5 years later....no further charges. And I volunteer my time here to get it across to others that it's not a prank.....

Thefts less than $150 in value can be misdemeanors or ordinance violations. If the thief is in high school, for instance, there is the possibility of a juvenile diversion program that protects the young adult's record. Theft of more than $150 in retail value is a felony - and that can result in a prison sentence.

In addition: If you would've read more in-depth, you would've saw that it wasn't expunged! It was DISMISSED!
