Can you be charged with selling stolen property if you didn't know it was stolen?

THAT, of course, is going to be your defense. However, the charge will still stand because whether you KNEW it was stolen or not is not the point. If you even had "reason to believe" that it was stolen that it might have been stolen goods (e.g.: it's appearance - it's cost to you - the person who delivered it to you - what you paid for it - the condition or quality of it - etc - etc).

Added: If you become the object of a police investigation into the circumstances of having it in your possession - if you cannot sufficiently satisfy the investigator, and he develops probable cause to believe that you are culpable, you can be charged and you will have to prove your innocence in court.

The police want to talk to me about some stolen checks I cashed But didnt know were stolen.?
Sounds like a good thing to tell them when you talk to them. They may be much more interested in where you got them than in you.

If you have been charged for drinking and driving and you didnt show up to court what happens?
that depends on what country and what state your in i assume.
What happens if you buy a illegal car?
It can be recognised by a serial number so if you need to get it fixed the mechanic could report it as a stolen car and the police will impound it. Even if you didnt know it was stolen when you bought it you will not receive a refund and if the police suspect you did know t was stolen you could be prosecuted.
You were charged with a felony but found not guilty can this still affect you getting a job?
No because you didnt do anything wrong if you were found not guilty.
