Arrested for Shoplifting in Northern Washington?
You could be looking at aggravated shoplifting charges if a prosecutor can prove:
- That the theft was planned ahead of time,
- Was carried out with the help of an accomplice,
- Involved a device to beat a security system (e.g. lined bags or tag removers),
- Involved stealing property worth $750 or more, or
- Was attempted by exiting through a designated emergency exit
Shoplifting property worth less than $750 is a misdemeanor and can incur a fine, imprisonment in the county jail, or both. "Retail theft with extenuating circumstances" such as those mentioned above is a felony and can result in a prison sentence, high fines, or both.
