    Default Caught Shoplifiting at Macys

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: mass
    i am 18 years old and i got caught shoplifting $234 worth of merchandise (or $254-not exactly sure) from macys. I was not arrested but i did have to sign all of the papers saying i cannot go into any macys, etc. I have already paid the $500 fee to macys. This is my first shoplifting offense. Although when i was 14 I got in some trouble (not shoplifting) and did the diversion program-but it was clearned from my record(not sealed, but cleared). i beleive CVS has a shoplifting charge on me from when i was 16 still (i never stole my boyfriend did and i was with him-but no police ever showed up to the clerk's hearing). I'm in college and completly broke- i paid the $500 fee myself and im trying to avoid telling my parents. What is the best and worst case senario and what can i do to make this situation better?

    Your best case scenario is that is now over.
    You may have been reported to the National Retail Theft Database which may make it hard to get a job in retail and may disincline further people you steal from to give you any leniency.
    Unless you hear from the police and or the district attorney's office, consider yourself extremely lucky.

    You should reconsider wasting your parents money going to college if you are criminally charged later. No one wants to hire a thief, with a degree.
