Re: Three felonies
Get her a lawyer, and don't talk to *anyone* -- except lawyers you are interviewing -- about the case or try to repay the money unless and until the lawyer you retain says it's OK.
Your wife is potentially facing a long prison term along with a restitution order and other penalties. Take this *very* seriously and start interviewing lawyers right away.
Re: Three felonies
Get a good attorney, right NOW, unless she likes the prospect of serving time. It may be possible for an attorney to negotiate a deal with the store that will stop the DA from prosecuting. Time is critical. Contact me if interested in doing this.
