More details to this question:
I recently served a minor who came into my restaurant. I am aware that mistake of fact only applies to a fake ID, and that me being extremely busy is not an excuse. What are the consequences for this crime and would it affect my future of being in law enforcement?

You should hire a lawyer and get this relatively minor charge dismissed. By yourself, you're going to get a criminal record, and it isn't worth it.
