Question:Is it safe to re-enter a store after being caught shoplifting and given trespass?
When I got caught shoplifting, they got my picture obviously. I was then told to leave and that I was no longer allowed on the premises. No police were involved that I know of. It has been nearly three weeks now, so i doubt anything will come of this. Is it ever safe to return to that store, even after waiting a year or so?
Criminal Defense Lawyer, R. Christopher Simons answer:
It is not safe. The tresspass warning is valid until removed. You will have to get permission from the store owner or manager to go back on the property.
