    Unhappy Shoplifting Escape

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: massachusetts

    hey guys, i know im going to recieve a lot of hate/anger towards this as shop lifting/theft is disgraceful, my 2 friends shoplifted at the mall and i was waiting out front for them in my uncles car, a security car/cruiser from the mall was aware of there theft and followed my car as i left in a hurry with them in the backseat. the car didnt leave the mall but im sure they got my uncles cars licence number down and i totally regret this =( he's at work right now and i feel so bad. the people in the backseat threw the stuff out as they got nervous but it was a couple of sweaters. what do you think most likely will happen and this is my first time doing something like this. thanks.

    I think you should call your uncle and tell him that he is going to get a very disturbing phone call.

    i think instead he's gunna deny it and his alibi is he was at work then they have cam footage of the people in the store and its clearly not him so they will drop them based on the lack of evidence plus they dont have footage of the vehicle fleeting and only one person security guard saw the plate, it was really sunny and mistakes can happen

    So.

    You have it all worked out.

    good luck.

    When your uncle says you were driving, go to court, plead not guilty and ask for a public defender.

    why would my uncle say i was driving if by saying he wasnt driving as he was at work no one could have taken his car and they have nowhere to go?

    If you already have all the answers, why are you here?

    See, the police know SOMEONE was driving that car. The cameras in the parking lot will show the car and the plate.

    But, you are right. he will probably take the fall for you.

    I would presume that Unca is gonna get a visit instead of a phonecall!

    You may as well have an 'honesty attack' and take ownership of what y'all did. Perchance facing the "music" will develop some maturity and/or responsibility?

    I'm jus' sayin'............

    THEN! Go forth and sin no more!
