My question involves criminal law for the state of: Kansas
I have a question... 2mths ago I was shopping in walmart & bought 2 pairs of shoes. Being stupid I changed a tag on a 3rd pair, however when I got to the register, I informed the cashier that I did not want that pair, I scanned the 1st pair, the 2nd pair would not ring up so the cashier typed in the numbers, I paid and left... 4 days later, a officer showed up at my job, stating I was getting a ticket for theft by deception... After going to court, I plead not guilty, but could not aford or qualify for a attorney so was offered diversion... What I'm wanting to know if even if I choose to not get that 3rd pair or if the cashier entered the wrong barcode can I still get charged? I have lost my job due to my employer saying by me taking diversion, I was stating guilt... Is it theft if I did not leave with the item or ring them up?
