Can you be charged for petty theft when no actual ID is shown?

Yes, when you get to court, if you demand a jury trial, the state will bring the person who says you stole and they will point at you from the witness stand and say, "that person sitting right there wearing the black suit, is the person who stole from me on friday the 10th day of april, 2009. I know it was the same person, and would recognize them anywhere."

Good Luck
