I think you are going to have to consider this a cross roads in your life! if you choose to carry on with your thieving you will be able to take juvenile court as a form of job training for the future. if you choose to take the right course then your first point of call must be a solicitor or lawyer.
You must defend yourself in court to the full. A plea bargain may be your best defence.
If this is your first offence then you can plead childish stupidity to which you may well be bound over for a year to two. A lawyer will be able to construct a suitable defence and should bring your age and lack of responsibilty to the courts attention. If you have a fiscally challenged back ground then stealing for need not greed is a good start.
You will have to prove that.
The trick here is not to try and guess the questions.
They will ask you the simple question "Why?"
You must be defended in court and if not the prosecution will fry you to a crisp then throw you in the bin.
This is difficult time for you you, it will be murderous for your family. You are entitled to make an **** of yourself once in your life.But you must learn from it.
Do not show anything but remorse to the court, do not have anyone other than immediate family in court, no gang of friends in the visitor gallery sitting like a load of thugs. You must present the best possible image of yourself.
Be smart in dress, not in mouth.
Best of luck

Wow. You're not worthless, but that was definitely not a good move.
It would be different in each court case.
Just be brave and tell the truth, and hopefully they won't be too hard on you.
That was a LOT of money, though. The consequences are higher for anything over $20.
Geeze, what the hell even posessed you to steal? |
