    Theft under 5000 what are common charges and fines?
    Today My brothers girlfriend and I went shopping at save on foods as she said she had some shopping to do, I only needed to buy smokes. So I came and followed her around helped her get things, she didn't have a basket but she had a purse thing that looked like those go green bags so I put the items I grabbed for her in the bag having no idea what her intentions were. We went to the tills she went through before me as I was up at customer service buying cigeretts. When I proceeded to the door she was standing there with a man and she looked upset, I asked what's happening? And he said you two are under arrest for theft under 5000. THe man took us to the back took names and numbers got a picture of the two of us than proceeded to call the cops. When the cops arrived they took us in the car to the station where we got mug shots taken, finger print and court dates. How am I at fault and what are going to be the consequences for me when I'am not guilty?
    Thanks
