Im 17. im really really really stupid. i cant believe i did this. they locked me up in these cages they had in some security room downstairs i had no idea they had. the cops came i was arrested and im suppose to show up to court in one month which i am obviously going to do because i do not want a warant. my records are completley clean...well up to this point... i want to know what charges should i be worried about facing...how much will be the fine that macys is placing on me?...after court am i going to be recieving another fine?...i dont know why i did this ugh!!! i hate myself!!...is there going to be anything mailed to my house because my parents have no idea and im trying to keep it a secret but if there is somehting that claims im a felon my parents will find out! should i be worried about recieving mail that contains these criminal records now on me? ...will my records clear out snce im never ever ever going to do it again? will my highschool find out about this? will jobs that i apply to know about this

    Be honest and tell your parents NOW, or would you rather them find out
    by some other way

    You are looking at the following

    Criminal fine - expect in excess of $300

    Community Service - expect 100 hours

    Probation - expect a minimum of one year

    Also expect a Civil Demand from Macy's or their lawyer up to $500,
    usually in the $250 to $350 range. Don't think about not paying this as it could lead to much bigger trouble

    Plea bargaining policies, alternative sentences, and sentencing practices vary by state and county, and sometimes by judge. If you want a reliable assessment of exactly what will happen in your case, consult a local criminal defense lawyer.
