    Default I think i am in big trouble. allo advice and suggestions is appreciated.

    First of all, I know what I did in the first place is wrong and I do not want to be lectured on how I shouldnt shoplift. Yesterday, I was caught shoplifting a pair of pants I needed for a job and I didnt have the money to buy it. Well I got caught, and they searched my purse. Inside I had a pill bottle with less than a gram, mostly shake and stems. I also had my boyfriend's green bay packers bowl (which when he finds out the police took it, will be very upset). Well they wrote me two summons, one for shoplifting (which is my second offense) and another one for possesion of marijuana code number 18.2-250.1. They didn't write me for a paraphenalia charge, which I thought they would of. I currently have a restricted license with some limitations. two years ago I also had a charge with possesion of controlled substance for my adderall. I didnt have the prescription handy at the time of the charge, but it was later dropped and I had to do vasap. Can I fight this? Could I also get a court appointed attorney before my court date? I know I will need an attorney for this. Another question I have is will these charges show on my public record, like the court websites? I do not want anyone to stuble upon it. I have saught online legal advice about this. I'm just really scared at this point. Thank you.

    People who do not have a high level of street smarts or are not VERY cleaver/cunning should not do criminal acts....Do you fit in? You can fight this and You can get a public defender if you are broke. Which it seems you are. You should not expect much from a court appointed lawyer though.Perry Mason is not a public defender.You will have a criminal record,unless you can defeat the charges and it will be open to anyone who inquires. Another mistep and you will prob. do time.If you don't go straight at least you will come out a better criminal and won't get caught as often.

    Virginia. They watched me go into the dressing room and come out with one less item than I came in with.

    Apparently I do fit in, but like I said I needed the pants for a job I am going to be starting. I was looking for legal advice and since I have a possesion charge, I was thinking I would start here. Thank you though

    No my license is restricted due to reckless driving - I have a heavy foot, along with sticky fingers. The adderall charge I got was from a cop going through my bag and found my medicine.

    With your record, light, and the fact it was a small amount you will most likely get prob. As far as public records, it is what is
    U not going to do time for this but you need to watch out in the future. Everyone has cameras these days and the small shops that dont watch you like a hawk
