A person is caught stealing from the pharmacy they work at , about 10,000 dollars worth drugs , what will happen ?

It is impossible to say what will happen to you without knowing all the facts of your case. That said 10K worth of drugs is a lot and you will almost certainly be charged with possession with intent to sell. You need the best lawyer your money will buy. Call me.

Have charges already been filed by the District Attorney? WIthout knowing what charges were filed it is impossible to speculate as to what might happen. There are numerous theft charges that could be filed as well as drug charges. If you haven't contacted an attorney in your area you need to do so. This is a serious matter.

There are many ways the DA could go with this. You need to get ahead of the game though. Don't make any statements, consult with counsel that knows what they're doing, and ONLY speak with that attorney - DO NOT MAKE ANY STATEMENTS TO ANYONE WITHOUT YOUR LAWYER!!!! Call me to discuss more privately - nothing you post here is privileged. www.criminallawdefender.com.

Depends. What kind of prescription medication? On what do you base your valuation? Retail price? Wholesale cost? Street value? Were you "at work" when you committed the theft? Or did you go there another time to steal the drugs? That could be the difference between Burglary and theft. Don't answer any of these questions on -line. Just know that they are important questions to discuss privately with counsel. Be wary of attorneys here who solicit you to call them.

Sounds like this is potentially a serious case for possession with intent to sell in addition to any theft charges. You need a good lawyer asap. Jacek W. Lentz, Esq. 310.273.1361 www.lentzlawfirm.com
