A friend of mine was charged with shoplifting today. He stole something that had a value of $6.99 and was charged with Theft 3. I feel really bad about this as what he stole was for me. He is really worried about how this will affect his ability to get a job and go to the peace corps. (he graduates from college this spring). What are his options as far as how to approach this? Is deferment a possibility (he has a totally clean record) and if not what else can he do?
Thanks
