    First Offense Theft under 5000 for stealing a micky just turned 18
    Hey ,


    My name is derrick and I just turned 18 December 1st, not that long after that I think it was January 7th I got arrested for stealing a mickey for rum for a friend, I've never been arrested before or charged with anything and I went to court they told me to get a lawyer and come back in 2 weeks. I was just wondering what the punishment would be I'm a small guy ahaha I really do not want to go to jail with real men.
