Hi. I was charged with theft by taking a motor vehicle and contributing to a delinquency of a minor last year. I was sentenced to 3 yrs probation under the first offenders act. A few days a go I was arrested for theft by shoplifting $1601.93 worth of merchandise, and cont. to delinquency of a minor. What should I do, Am I going to serve time?

Hello jess:

Are you going to serve time? I don't know, but it ain't looking good. Hire a lawyer.

I would agree, it does not look good, and why is there always a minor with you when you are doing these things?

I would say you can expect to serve some time, but heck in today's world, prison over crowding, liberal judges, it is past election time and get tough on crime, you never know what to expect.

But hire the best attorney you can, and try to learn a lesson about criminal behavior
