Yes, if you did it, it helps to plead guilty right away saves you money and other penatlies. The sooner you plead guilty the sooner you will be able to further your life and get on the right track.

Yea, plead guilty.IF YOU'RE AN IDIOT I don't know who "tkh" is who wrote the original answer but no doubt he's either a religious nut, an idiot who is trying to get YOU convicted or just trying to get you put in prison.

You DO NOT plead guilty to any thing until you talk to an attorney and that attorney arranges the plea for you. Whatever you do, DO NOT go in there to the police station and start screamin' "I'M GUILTY!" at the top of your lungs or they will have you convicted of the robbery, any other robberies in your neighborhood, possibly some robberies OUTSIDE of your neighborhood and the Kennedy assassination too. DO NOT plead guilty without an attorney!

ans3. If you committed the theft, then seriously consider pleading guilty, but after receiving advice from an attorney. Making early restitution is also a good idea.

Another View: As with the answers to many question like this in this category - IT ALL DEPENDS on information that the answerer has no knowledge of.

What kind of theft? Did you shoplift a candy bar or embezzle a bank? What is your past criminal history, if any? Was there a long criminal investigation in order to identify you as the suspect, or did you turn yourself in? Etc. There are so many variables that without much more specific information it is virtually impossible to render an asnwer to your question. The only good consistent advice contained in this entire string of answers is the one that recommends that you consult with an attorney before making any decisions!

Will your 18 year old boyfriend go to jail for theft from unsecure cars in scotland. 11 charges plead guilty to 6. Has already completed community service for unrelated charge. Jail or tagged?

It doesn't make any difference whether the car was secure or not - theft is THEFT ! What right did he have to take something that didn't belong to him ? His previous record will be a matter for the court to scrutinise - he has previous convictions - therefore can't use the '...its my first offence...' defence can he ! Additionally - he's 18 - therefore will be sentenced as an adult.
