My question involves criminal law for the state of: Virginia
Over a month ago my friend shoplifted from walmart way early in the morning using my car(COST:Under 10 dollars), I'm very pissed. He parked on a side street visible to walmart but not on the property of walmart. He went in and took a pack of redbull and found a blindspot and stached it and went back to my car and hid it. he went back again and took another pack, he said no one saw him and he wasn't stopped either times. Im scared he's gonna get caught and get my plate traced back to me. it has been over 6 weeks and he's gone back to that walmart more than half a dozen times for non illegal activities(buying dip and food and stuff) he says he hasn't been apprehended and nobody has followed him or talked to him. Im scared and worried sick that i might get in trouble or a letter or met by the police. Does anyone know how long it takes for them to contact you? and do you think the plate will be traced? Im so scared and i told him not to pull that again(I'm doing community service on my own to get my mind off of this) Thank you for the help.
