My question involves criminal law for the state of: Utah.
Okay so like 10 years ago I was working for Wal-Mart in Idaho and I got mixed in with drugs and the wrong crowd, which still is no excuse but I ended up shoplifting and stealing and doing stuff that I shouldn't have been doing and I ended up with felony charges and ended up spending 24 hours in jail. It was the worst time/part of my life and I would rather die than go back to jail for any period time. so I got probation for 5 years and restitution fees, fines and community service hours. (Which that happened in Idaho). I got all that done, completed that thought everything was going good and then I messed up again. this time its in Utah at walmart and I wasn't working for them. I wasn't scanning products items, mostly food items and putting them in the bag/cart and now I'm facing a class B misdemeanor charge and have been banned for life from walmart. I'm not happy at all about it. there's no excuse for my stupid decisions, I wish I can go back and change everything but I can't. ALL I can do is move forward and learn from this. I'm going to be doing a online program for shoplifting and also anything else I can do to help me. My deal is now I haven't gone to court or anything yet and I don't have the money to pay for a lawyer but I am worried that I'll have to do jail time and the issue is, is that I have 3 jobs and if I go to jail I'm going to lose them and I'll be in worse shape than I was before I made the stupid decisions. I would rather pay a fee for every month for the rest of my life then spend any amount of time in jail. I will be representing myself because I cannot afford a lawyer and I'm going to have a hard time with fees and fines anyway but I'd rather be having a hard time with the fees and fines then do jail time. I have a family to take care of and help support and my three jobs that depend on me that I need to keep. so I need any help and advice on what I can do or say to not have to worry about doing jail time. I know that it was stupid of me to do it in the first place and extremely stupid for me to do it again I have no excuses, just that it was a stupid decision and now I'm going to need to make up for it and move forward to prove myself. Any help advice anything would be very appreciative. Thank you
