Son charged with possession under 5000 and theft under 5000 two separate times
My son 17 was charged with theft under 5000 and possession under 5000 for stealing a carton of cigarettes and credit card and used the credit card for $5 . Two weeks later he was at wrong place with friennds who started stealing from cars at mall. He himself did not steal but didn't want to leave friends without ride home so hung around on the lookout and one friend put stolen property in his pocket so he was charged again with theft under 5000 and possession under 5000. Different jurisdictins. Do we need a lawyer or is duty counsel enough to help us in the different court proceedings. Should he plead guilty. Would he be eligible for any type of diversion programs. He was living on his own and ran out of money when both of these crimes took place. He has since moved back home under our supervision. Would this make a difference?
Son is going to get conditional discharge
My son was caught stealing - possession under 5000 and theft under 5000. They want to give him a conditional discharge where he is on probation for a year and needs to go for some type of counselling. Could I ask the crown for drug testing also or should I leave it alone. I suspect drugs are involved in his risky behaviour
