What happens if you steal something? Well, depends on the value of how much you steal -- it can be a charge of a misdemeanor or felony. YOu will most likely have to pay a fine, some jail time and restitution depending the severity of the crime.
Have you been arrested? If so, contact a lawyer to review your case or have a public defender assigned to you. Try www.attorneypages.com, the Washington state bar, or the public defender's office.
