Re: stolen items
Half of the inmates in jail are bipolar. It is NOT a defense or a mitigating factor in any charge that may be brought against you.
You are NOT under any legal obligation to talk to the police and, if you're asking for advice, I advise you not to speak with them. The police only want your confession. They are NOT there to help you.
If a decision is made to prosecute, you'll probably receive a notice in the mail.

Absolutely DO NOT SPEAK TO POLICE without an attorney present, if at all. You need help and quick! Visit me at www.kliszlaw.com for free phone advice. Tim Klisz
