I was caught shoplifting at Nordstrom with 4 of my friends. One of my friends didn't steal anything and they told her to leave the other, she was walking out with a bag full of items and they asked for it and told her to leave. Then they cuffed me and my 2 other friends and took us to the back room. They took out all the items and asked whos was whos. All the girls items we said it was the friend who they told to leave. So it ended up my friend with $88 jeans, other friend with $95 purse and me with $615 worth of jeans (3 jeans). The rest of the items (like 3 wallets, leggins, purse was put to the side)
Were all 15 and they took all our information down and called our parents and the cops. Our parents came and they signed a paper and we were set free, I don't know why the cops came. They were really just there for Q&A with our parents.
So I guess in 2 weeks were getting a letter that should have a court date and fine or something. What is going to happen to me? Am I going to be in big trouble and have this on my record forever? And also how much do you think my fine will be, what's the maximum they can fine you? Also the limit at Nordstroms was $250 and as you can see I'm wayy over. We live in Washington State
BTW- They said were not allowd in Nordstroms for 2 years but we can come in with our parents.
