This is my first time shoplifting at and I got caught I went into Kohls and had an empty bag in the cart and filled it with merchandise well of course i took the most expensive stuff so it equaled $1197 this is my first and only arrest the cops came I paid Kohls already their $175 fine the Judge did not put me in jail that night but I am set for a preliminary hearing. I am getting a defense laywer by the state b.c I cant afford one. What is going to happen at court. I have two small children a 4yr old and a 2 month old baby i told the judge this. I am not on drugs nor do I drink I work and I am a good person who just did something very very stupid and wont do it again. I read online you can write the judge a letter describing yourself and how good a person you are and he might consider this when doing your penalities. What is going to happen to me? I a can not go to jail how much in fines will I pay/ I live in Morrisville PA.
