My husband is charged with Retail Theft under $150 which is a misdemeanor. He took a bottle of perfume from JC Penny and it was his first time to run into problems with the law. My question is what will happen now? He doesn't speak English very well, and when he signed the papers saying that he did it intentionally he wasn't exactly informed of what he is signing. He was told that they can get him someone who does speak Polish but that last time when they did it, this person was unable to translate anything that was needed, or explain anything, or answer any questions. He was arrested and his court date is coming up. Is there anyone that this will not go on his criminal record? Please help.
