What is the name of your state? Iowa
Can anyone help me....My 16 year old daughter was caught shoplifting today at our local Wal Mart store. She had money, she just wanted to see if she could get away with it...that's all she'll tell me anyway. Under Iowa Code 645.1, since she is a minor I am legally responsible for her actions. Here's my question...since she's only 16, and this is a 1st (and last) offense, is there anyway I can be charged as the ONLY defendant? I really don't want this on her record. She's got too much in her future to mess it up with this charge. Thanks for your help. MelissaWhat is the name of your state?
