    Default Petty theft charges

    Got a call that my daughter was being held in the store for petty theft from a police officer! She took a $20 wallet. We didn't get any paperwork ,they said it would come in the mail in about 3 weeks and a paper from the store about civil demand fees. My daughter just got accepted to a college in Chicago, will she be able to leave California? Do you think they will treat her as a juvenile or adult. The officer was very nice and said she respected my daughter for telling the truth and not the "it fell in my purse" story. They said they told her all the things that can happen, but probably won't. She's good kid (really). Never been in trouble, honor student, athlete and Best Buddies mentor. She is now realizing she may hace thrown away her college education at a shool she really wanted to go to and I think I'm taking harder than she is. Any ideas on what might happen?

    You should be able to have things resolved well ahead of next fall.

    That depends on her age.
