I made the biggest mistake of my life yesterday..
I shoplifted........
I confessed I wasn't about to say I didn't do it. I am an honest person and this was my first and last time. I am over 18 and I was with my 17 year old friend who is being charged as an adult. She is facing a fine because this was our first offance.
The charges I am facing are...
1. Crimmal charges
2. Cival charges
3. endangerment to a minor..this is the one that kills me the most. I subjected my 8 year old sister to my stupid actions. Although she had no idea what we did, she of course so the aftermath. I maybe facing jail time for this which just kills me.
I live with my parents because I have alot of mental and emotional problems. I blame my stupid actions on a "manic mood". I have to pay the fines and also all the merchidise fee. I don't think its fare that because I am over 18 I must pay for all the things we took. My friend has offered to pay her half. The price of the things was under $100 will that help me any? I am still in shock form what happend and can only blame myself. I've done anything wrong before, I am terrified of the jail time I may face,haveing this over my head. My family is a very upstanding family, my mom spoke of expungement which hopefully when this all clears I will look into. Please help if you can. My mind is thinking of awful things....
What are this laws in Pennsylvania regarding my situation?
I am sorry for the spelling mistakes, I am a very rare mood...
