My question involves criminal law for the state of: Summary offense
Hello, a few hours ago my sister in law and I were stopped for retail theft. I am 24 and she's 16. I didn't actually steal anything but I did throw some stuff in the cart, she bagged it all in her purse and when we were stopped at the exit and taken into the back room I took the blame for everything thinking they'd just cite me and let her leave with me. They said they didn't actually catch me on camera stealing anything but because I was with her and threw some stuff on the cart that id be charged as well. I signed a paper saying im not allowed in any wal mart or same club in the world and was not arrested, and the cops weren't called. we were told it was a summary offense and when I looked that up it said the cost must've been under $150. They didn't tell us how much it actually was. I did some research and found I would have to respond to the citation, get fingerprinted and go to court. I left a message for a da but what are my chances of jail time?? I've never stolen anything in my life so this is a first offense. Help??
