    Will Admittance to LP Officer Hurt My Chances of Plea Bargain?
    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Pennsylvania

    I previously posted a thread titled "Caught Shoplifting With A Friend"

    Thank you to all who answered. I very much appreciate it.


    Now onto another question:

    When me and my friend were brought to the LP's office.. he said to me "I have seen you here a lot" and I said "Well I used to work here". When I told him it was years ago that I had worked there, he said "Well I have definitely seen you here often, have you done this before?" Now, I know now that I should have lied and said "No this is my first and only time" -- but I didn't -- I said "a couple times". I don't know why I did that, probably just thought it wasn't believable to say I hadn't when he's seen me in there on multiple occasions.

    Do the LPs come to court if you plead not guilty? I was going to plead not guilty and hope for a plea bargain of a diversion program or a disorderly conduct conviction.. but if the LP DOES go to court against me, is it likely he will tell the judge that I had admitted to doing this before? Or does it not even matter, because this was the first time I was caught? I am so worried he might say something. If he does, what are the chances of me getting the plea bargain I am hoping for?

    Thank you in advance to all who responds.

    Don't talk with anybody without Lawyer. Don't post any information on this site.
    You could be accused by not professional people and make mistakes.

    They could post threatenings, make "fake investigations and postings" and insult you just to "kill time" and could harm you, your case, reputation and health.

    Good luck with your case. If you feel sorry for something what you did before and would like to talk with somebody, talk with your Priest or just pray and talk with the God. Don't talk with people who pretend that they are kind and want to help you, they are not, they see only commercial interest in you, when they would get any information they would change 100% and would be cruelly lough about your weaknesses, because they are week themselves, plus cruel.
    Believe only your relatives, and ask your relatives for help, not this site. Don't talk with anybody without Lawyer.
