    Default Shoplifting at H.E.B. Texas

    Hi,
    I just wanted to see what I should do...or how I can help my friend out... My freind was caught shoplifting a small case of makeup that was marked $25.94...she knows what she did was wrong...she is young (18 years old) I was wondering does anyone know what would the 1st offence be??? Should she get a lawyer, will she get jail time??? She is really scared what the out come will be...I really hope this scares her straight...any help with this would be great...thanks....eddie

    This same question has been posted 100's of times you can read through many of them on this site. 1st offense I would not worry about jail time although it "could" happen. Prbation fines community service are most likely outcome. A ban from store is also likely. Your "friend" will also nowhave a criminal record. Tell her to look to see if a diversion program is available this could help her keep a conviction off her reocrd. Far as an Attorney goes well she is facing crimonal charges so yes an Attorney would be wise. The cheapest route may be find an Attorney that give free intial consultation. Thsi way even if you choose to defend yourself you will be armed with some knowledge
