    Default Stupid Shoplifting in Texas

    Hi, a friend and I were in a grocery store in Texas, and being the stupid 18 yr olds we are, we decided to try and steal somthing stupid. We got caught before we even left the door, or even walked behind the counter. We each had batteries, mine was for 5.99 and his was 2.99. They took us into a little room, and got all our information, and when they took a picture of us, the stupid officer made a "funny" face, with crossing his eyes, and making moose-horns, and sticking out his tounge. I almost beat the hell out of him, Even my other 2 friends..who were in the car.. saw him do it. We were permanently banned from the store. I only have 1 ticket for driving w/out a license when i was 16 almost 17, and my friend is clean. We have to appear to court within 15 days, and I was just wondering what i should do, and what to expect. I am also about to break a law, about living in the stated for more than 6 months w/out getting a state license, mine is still in Wyoming.

    oh, and the friends were in the car when we did it...they had no clue, and they came inside to ID us for the cops, and saw the picture taken, and the officer.

    It depends upon the court hearing. If it is an arraignment, you will probably have the opportunity to plead guilty as charged, or plead not guilty and have the matter scheduled for further proceedings. A local criminal defense lawyer can guide you through the process.

    So... get an in-state license?

    Should police be punished for harassment ? Yes, just like anyone else. Does making faces at you whil taking your picture after you were caught commitng a crime constitute harassment? I think not. Accept responsibility for your actions.
