    Default What Happens After an Older Teenager is Caught Shoplifting

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: new mexico

    I'm still desperately confused, i haven't gotten a civil demand letter from where my daughter shoplifted, according to the cop who only showed up to the store because they thought my daughter was 18 but when they realized she was 17 it was to late the cop was already there but he did say they might not do anything to my daughter because it was her first time getting in trouble with the law. So i'm puzzled, how long does it take for a civil demand letter to come in the mail? Will they call me or send me a letter notifying if my daughter has court? How will i know or find out if it will be in her criminal record? I'm more worried about my daughters criminal record, she's a smart kid with good grades who never gets in trouble & hardly ever goes out i was so shocked when i got a call from her telling me she was sorry for shoplifting, i am aware of the huge mistake she has made as i'm also sure he will not do this mistake again.

    Please do not assume anything of the sort. Get your daughter into counseling concerning this issue, as shoplifting, particularly manifesting in what you believed to be a happy well adjusted older teenager is a bad sign. This can be a sign she is under great pressure and needs help. It may not be her first time, and if she doesn't get some help, it may not be her last. If she is pulled into court, having sought her own help for the issue can only be a positive factor.
