Not sure if I mentioned that previously or not. She is going to court on July 23rd (I will be on vacation). This is not the first time she was caught shoplifting - but it was the first time as an adult. She was caught at Kohl's trying to steal a bathing suit.
husband and I told her the best thing she can do is stand in front of the judge, admit that she is a drug addict and ask for help. What can the judge say to that? Course I don't know if she will actually do that. husband and I are praying for some sort of outcome - jail, anything! But considering what the charge is, I am thinking she may just get a slap on the hand.
I told her she will have a really hard time finding a job now - no one wants to hire someone that stole anything.
I told her she could also try calling the DA and see what they say, but that is as far as I am going in my "help". I will be away on vacation with my in-laws and won't even know if she goes to jail.
What will they do when she tells them she cannot pay anything? Will they make her do some sort of jail time??? Anyone have any experience here?
