What is the name of your state? Oregon
My daughter and her friend were caught Shoplifting today at a Meier and Frank(turning into a macys). My daughter had a 38 dollar wallet and her friend a 42 dollar wallet. It was both of their first times/offences (stupid children) They took down the girls information and call us up to pick them up. When we arrived they told us about the situation, gave us a sheet saying they might have us pay a fine of 250 dollars plus the cost of the wallet and said they were not pressing and released the girls to us.
My question is, if they said they were not pressing charges and the girls did not get arrested, will this be on their records?
Also, they said we should be getting a letter from their lawyers in 2 - 6 weeks. What would these letters include? And what do you think they would say?
Also (sorry with all these questions) did my daughter completely screw up her whole life??
THank you
