I know I did this so wrong and I feel so regret and embarrassed right now.
So after reviewed tons of the threads here,I still want to talk about my story and hope I can get some advices.
I got caught stealing from a chain-store,around 10 items(food) that worth $50, so I walk into a room with two LPOs,take out the everything and put it on the table,and let them search me,I was begging them if they can let me go,they said they need to check if I have a criminal record first,if I don't,they won't charge me and I will free to go,so I gave them my id and they called police and tell me that just for record check,then they did some paperwork like how they noticed that I was stealing,total value of the stolen items,and wrote down my name/dob/address /phone number/jobs/weights on it,and they ask me how much money do I have in my wallet,I said more than $100.
After 10-15min,police arrived,I was shocked,I thought they were doing a record check,I was really scared at that moment,police did the same thing,search me and my wallet,ask me a few questions,then give me a ticket(I signed on it) with fingerprint court date on it,they took a copy of paperwork from LPO and asked them to leave the contact info,I don't know why they need it,it's like they will work more seriously on this case?
well,that's my story,what should do now?I really don't want get a criminal record,I know there's diversion program,am I eligible for it?(first time,adult,no record before),
and if anyone know any good lawyer,please let me know(im in toronto).
thanks
