    Default Help for second petty larceny charge

    Stupid me. I was caught shop lifting today at Stop & Shop for $60. I was arrested and was given a court date. I am not sure what this court date is for. But I was also caught shoplifting in February of this year, went to court for that and pleaded not guilty. I am accused of shoplifting $260 worth of items from Walmart. I was hoping to get an ACD for the first offense, but now that I was accused of shoplifting twice, will this hurt my chances of possibly getting one? I believe the officer that arrested me at Walmart had taken down my wrong address. Would this affect they can vue my record? How does a DA vue a person's record anyways? Also do you think that a publice defender for both these cases would due? Or should I just try to get a lawyer? What could a lawyer possibly do for me in this situation? I am 21 years old and live in NY. I don't want anything on my record. Is there any chance or this, and if there is, how can I do it? Any information would be really great. Pleas help. Thank you

    Nomore, somewhere along the way the court, cops or some clerk will find you've been caught yet again. It's not going to be pretty, the judge won't be amused. I think it's time to drop the term "Accused" too, by your own admission you have been caught stealing twice at two different stores, gone to court for the first and don't want a record for either. I hate to point out the obvious here but you're facing some serious charges, all this in the first few months of the year. If you don't wise up and 'come to Jesus' you will be logging onto this forum from the jail library.

    I really am sorry for the things that I've done, and this will be the last time that I will shop lift. And I know now that it's just not worth it. I was stupid in thinking that everything would be okay because I would get a ACD the first time, but now I know I'm in serious trouble. Still not sure what's going to happen to me. If anyone could help, please advise me.

    Your the first one I myself seen caught and charged twice for shoplifting. Please keep us updated on what state you've been charged in and what the outcome is.
