    So I got shop lifting in tesco today. The Garda was called and I got evicted I got a court date. The amount was 77 euro in total.
    This is my first time in court. Will I get sent to prison? I'm 20 will it be in my records for ever now
    I'm not Irish will I get sent home? I had a previous warning for something else. Trying to use a ATM card that's wasn't mine but no money taken.

    Depends on the weight and company. DHL will do it in a week but FedEx will get you lost and you'll miss any chance of appeals.

    No, you won't go to prison. First offense, a warning, maybe a fine if your working. If not working maybe a small donation or something. I don't think you'll get a record for such a small thing, but its a good slap on the wrist for ya anyhow. You'll probably get a ban from entering that Tesco shop again, sure who needs to shop at Tesco they only sell ****e. What did you take that was worth €77?

    You should have thought of consequences before you went shop lifting. You were plenty brave then.

    Yes, you'll have a record

    No it's unlikely you'll go to court if you've never been convicted of a criminal offence. Just go to court, and make sure you express how sorry you are and how stupid you were being

    Oh and don't be trying to rob anymore.

    I want a new tv but I can't afford it, but I wait till I can. I don't go trying to rob it. There's plenty of people who can't afford things, but it doesn't mean you try and steal it, then come and beg for information and sympathy. I doubt you'll go to prison over it, but it's likely you'll get a suspended sentence so if you're caught doing it again you will go to prison

    Now I don't know the circumstances that the op is in.
    But if I was hungry and had no money and no sign of any money in the immediate future I would probably Rob some food.

    But gathering from the op the person has a computer or phone otherwise they wouldn't be able to post on here.
    Also the grammar is pretty poor in the original post so that would lead me to assume that they left school early.

    OP will probably tell us they are using a borrowed computer or phone to write this and the internet they have just robbed....

    I work hard for the money so hard for the money so so hard for the money.

    I left school before I was 15, I'm on disability, and there's been a few times I went without food, but I don't turn to robbing. And you'd have a hard time robbing 77 quid worth of food

    It's either that or just another clown who can't read. I'd give them the benefit of the doubt, since they're only new here.

    I dunno people, someone commits a crime, gets caught, will face some form of sanction and is understandably scared... do we really need to sneer at them too? The 'punishment' part of things is already in hand thanks to the system we all subscribe to, maybe we could exercise some compassion for a fellow human in distress?

    Assuming this isn't yet another a troll post, which odds are it is.

    So lets say someone has just gone into your house took everthing and stabs you or member of your family and goes to court and gets a suspended sentence because as of late all I'm hearing is he had 120 previous but suspended sentence given and 5 million of drugs found plus guns all bailed but 1 so I can tell you something for nothing I do not subscribe to this system it is so outdated and needs to be fixed.
