Can You Keep Shoplifting from Going On Your Criminal Record
I was recently caught shoplifting at Wal_ mart something stupid for about $10. I was taken to the back and the got all of my information and then the police came, I was not handcuffed or finrprinted or anything and this is the first and last time I have ever done anything like this. I havent yet gone to the court I will this week but I am wanting to know if it is likely this will go on my criminal record or if there is ANYTHING I can do to get it off. Also if I plead guyilty will I just have to pay a fine or would I have to fo community service or anything like that??? Please reply!!!

Hello. I am in almost the exact same situation you are. I was caught shoplifting at walmart almost 3 weeks ago ( about $12 worth) It is the worst mistake of my life. I read your post and you mentioned you are going to court this week... did the cop give you a citation on the spot? The cops were not present for me, i just dealt with the stores loss prevention. I was told i would receive a letter in the mail requesting no less than $50 & no more than $500. Did you get one of those? I am curious to know what has happened to you so far?
