i was with a friend shopping at well known store - this friends decides she's going to take somethings in shopping cart - couldn't believe that. I got scared and took what I came to the store to get - and went to register paid and proceeded to leave - the LP apparently were watching and stopped us before she could get out of the store - the accused me of looking out while she did what she did and one also accused me of putting some things in bags. police came - and we were arrested and charged with felony theft. I feel like I'm in a night mare - I have no prior record - not even a traffic violation, but apparently she does - don't know all the details. I was booked and let go - she was kept in. What usually would happen in this case. I asked LP to show me on tape were they saw me do this - but they did not and insisted that I did it. I obtained a lawyer the next morning - I am so upset and have been stressed since the incident happened - I feel it's unfair and am nervous that LP will definately be believed over me. I have no reason to shop-lift let alone felony shoplift. They found nothing on me (in my purse) but things in hers:![]()
