    Post Shoplifted in Macys

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: CA

    Well basically i got caught shoplifting 48 dollars worth of pants at Macys 2 wks ago, i was taken to a little room and they got all my information and the police came and got my fingerprints and my headshots and interrogated me and (after reading my rights) my two other friends that got caught stealing with me, well basically my friend told the cop that we intended to steal, my other friend kept her mouth shut and when it was my turn i told him that we were there just doing our own thing and that stealing was just compulsive thing and it wasnt planned out.

    He basically said that my friend and i have two different stories and now im scared to plea not guilty because he might use this against me, so my main question is, does the court or what not can change my 490.5 to a 459? or no? And what are the odds of having this charge be lessened to an infraction or a 415 (disturbing the peace) or even a diversion can be eligible? And when i plea not guilty which i think i might do, i can a PD and we can resolve the matter in one day or do i have to go to another court date?

    im a first time offender
    im 18 yrs old, one is 19 and 18 (i know we're dumb, we're all college students that are broke)

    You go for your arraignment.

    You plead "Not Guilty" and ask for a Public Defender.
