My question involves criminal law for the state of: California
A friend of mine and I were coming back from a party together a couple nights ago. He asked me to stop so that he could make a beer run at the local gas station. I got out of my car and went to talk to some other friends of ours parked next to us. Not a minute later, I see my friend running to my car with a case of beer in his hands. He gets in the car and yells for me to get back in the car because he just stole the beer. I get back in the car and drive off because, honestly, I didn't know what else to do. I caught a glimpse of the clerk writing down my license plate number.
I have never been in trouble with the law in my life. I am a college student, and I am about as clean as you can get. My friend was being drunk and stupid and he did something idiotic.
Am I liable? And if so, what kind of punishment am I looking at?
It was just one case of beer, and I wasn't even the one who took it. Am I going to get my record tainted because of this idiot?
For reference, I am not 21, but my "friend" is. I am, however, considered an adult.
Thanks in Advance.
