    Hello again, a:

    Try to keep all your posts related to this bust on the same thread. It makes it soooo much easier to follow.

    Yes, you should tell your PO about this.

    Because you could probably get in trouble with your PO if she finds out that you were questioned and didn't tell her.

    Probably a bad way of putting it. Suggests that you were guilty but didn't get caught (yet).

    Hello again, a:

    I'm not going to go back, but I think we've been here before. I don't remember talking about your probation, but of course you have to tell her. It's a VIOLATION if you don't. I'm sure you don't remember, but you signed a probation agreement that spelled out the rules. One of those rules is to report ALL police contact... It doesn't say anything about only reporting convictions...

    But, as I recall, you already DID snitch on yourself to the cop who was called out to the store. So, it really doesn't matter that you said NOTHING to the detective, like I advised you to do, because they already have your confession.

    Given that you did it, and you admitted to doing it, the chances that they're NOT going to file charges is 99 to 1 against you. I can't imagine why you would think you can skate on this. Cops are NOT there to let crooks go.

    I know. You don't like that you're a crook.

    I was indicating that you are implying, in this thread, that you are guilty.

    Excon's post suggests to me that you have admitted it in another thread.

    Offering to pay it back is another admission of guilt.

    Don't know why they haven't charged you yet. Perhaps they just haven't gotten around to it yet.

(he said he won't arrest me then, and told me this last time and he didnt)... well he said after that he has to turn it in to the county? What does that mean?

    My suspicion is that the Police want you to confess and then you will be charged.

    DO NOT TALK TO THE POLICE.

    You have 4 or 5 threads on this same subject. Everything that CAN be said HAS been said.

    I have asked that the threads be combined and suggested that you stop asking questions and start reading the answers.
