I have a friend who was just arrested for shoplifting at the mall. What is the worst punishment that can happen to him?
The punishment for theft varies from state to state based on the charges filed, the value of the merchandise, prior convictions, and age of the person arrested. This is a life-altering matter that your friend should take seriously by hiring a criminal defense attorney and get legal advice on how to properly defend himself in court.
