My question involves criminal law for the state of: Pennsylvania
A few weeks ago, I was in J.C. Penny shopping with my friend. We had a $100 giftcard so we decided to buy some jewelry. Long story short, I walked out of the store with two bracelets that we hadn't paid for. I'm sure many won't believe me, but to be honest, it was the result of a huge brain fart and I just didn't remember that I had them still. I know, unlikely. Anyways, I was wondering if they're going to show the tapes in court, or what else I can be prepared for. I'm pleading not guilty, but I know the chances of getting off are basically 0% because in all likelihood the tapes will make it seem as if I did it on purpose. I mean... I DID put the bracelet in my pocket/on my wrist, I just don't remember doing it.
Thanks.
