    Default Shoplifting at Target but Never Caught in Person

    My question involves criminal law for the state of:

    So I feel terrible and my guilt is killin me. I’ve shoplifted from target a couple of times taking cloths and other things not to expensive and walking out the front door with them. Now I have never been caught but I have been feeling so guilty I through out everything I took and donated to the Salvation Army and have been terrified since I’ve googled and a lot of people said that some times target will try and build a case before pursuing you. It’s been about 2 months since the last time I have but is there anything I should do get a lawyer move away, anything I should do to protect myself and is there any way of finding out if I’m being watched or pursued . I’ve been dying of the guilt inside and barley sleeping the last month and a half freaking out day by day wondering and scared. I know I did wrong I just can’t go to jail I’ll do whatever I can to make amends and fix it

    There is nothing you can do to fix what you did.

    Stay completely out of Target for a very long time.

    It is fact, not opinion, that retail prices are high because of theft. (That's a response to the other thread.) It doesn't matter how bad you feel; that doesn't change economics.

    It's good that you're sorry for what you did but you've already done it. Unless you have a TARDIS in your back pocket you can't undo it. And the time to worry about going to jail is BEFORE you commit a criminal act. It's no longer in your hands.
