    Default What is the Charge for Retail Theft in Wisconsin

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: WIsconsin
    I recently got caught shoplifting a $12 item at a fleetfarm in hudson WI, the cops were called and they gave me a ticket that said to pay $235 and a mandatory court appereance. I am on probation right now for another burglury to a house. I dont know what to do right now, im freaking out, I still need to pay restitution for the other crime that I did, and I'm already about 2 moths behind on the payments for the $1,200 restitution. How much is the charge for retail theft of a $12 item, and what will happen to me cause im on probation?

    Big trouble indeed

    Have you mentioned this to your Probation Officer? If not why? He will find out about it eventually

    Your probation could be revoked, jail time might be involved

    For the $12 item you face a criminal fine ($235), AND a civil fine which will probably be less than $500

    It's not that easy

    The civil demand will be from the place from which you took the item, or their lawyers. That you will have to pay

    Tell your PO ASAP !!!

    Get a lawyer as well, you need it
