Please get a lawyer and do not do this yourself.  Theft is a crime of moral turpitude.  Depending on the circumstances an attorney might be able to work out a dismissal of your offense or another favorable alternative.  Don't do this alone.

It depends on what t you admitted to when you wrote the statement. You could be prosecuted but it is possible that it will be handled civilly with restitution. I t is extremely wise for you to be prepared to pay back the loss ($1000) immediately if you get the opportunity. This may not be possible but it would be much less expensive than having to pay it back and still have court fines, court costs, probation fees, attorney fees and a criminal probation and possibly a criminal record.

What do I tell the judge if I was arrested without my miranda rights read?

Mark R. Thiessen
Answered by attorney Mark R. Thiessen

Nothing. The Judge won't listen to you. You need to hire a knowledgeable attorney who can argue the hell out of it. But you only get Miranda if you are going to be interrogated.
