Legal Question in Criminal Law in Wisconsin

Caught Shoplifting from a retail store. I'm 19 and this is my first offense and definitely my last. The items totaled around $1000 I am looking to find out what my fines will be and charges that could possibly be against me. I'm currently a college student, so I'm really stressing about this and I don't want my parents or friends to find out about this or I'm dead.

If you value your future, retain an experienced criminal lawyer immediately, since there may be ways of keeping this off public web databases prior to formal charges being issued. Large value shoplifting attempts can also be as felonies,

Do not assume that I am your attorney because of my response here. Call my office in Racine (262-633-3090 or email [email protected]) for clarifications, but short of such additional arrangements, I will not be taking any action on your case.
