Hi, i got arrested yesterday for retail fraud in the 3rd degree at macys in michigan i am really scared i have a clean record it's my first offense no one saw me taking it , and am not on camera but they where watching me and noticed 2 items missing from the fitting room after i left so they asked if i did take them so i confessed they are worth $80. please help me understand whats the worst that could happen to me, or should i get a lawyer? and is this arrest going to be permanat on my record? please help. thanks
i also wanted to add that i was still in the middle of the store i wasn't planning to leave yet when they came up to me and grabbed me to the back room also they took my purse from me(thats where i had hidden the merchandise) also took my phone and my keys and went through all my belongings without my permission and kept my things with them till the police came? is this normal procedure? please help!
