You need to consult with an attorney. You do not have to do the PTI program. You have a right to a trial. Go discuss the case with a lawyer. Sometimes its possible to be convicted of a crime simply because a person was with the one that actually committed it. Its certainly not always fair, but its the law. See a lawyer.
