Salem District Court
Shoplifting $100+ by Asportation Chapter 266 Section 30A
According to the Security Guards at a local Department Store, Attorney Barabino’s client was walked into the store with her sister and approached a display of merchandise. They selected children’s clothes and shoes, removed the tags and attempted to conceal the items after removing the tags from the items. The evidence was clear that they committed the act of shoplifting. In addition to the expected testimony of the store security officer there was videotape of the client and her sister committing the acts. A deal had to be struck with the prosecutors and a major concern was any admission to a crime could have immigrations consequences. After discussing the matter with the District Attorney an agreement was struck to allow no admission to a crime and simply pay back the money for the items. If client stay out of trouble for six months the case was simply be dismissed. And most importantly, it will be dismissed with no admission to the criminal act.
RESULT: pays $239.98 and admits to NO crime, with NO immigration Consequences.
