More details to this question:
I'm worried that a criminal record will severely impact my chances of getting a job eventually. The item was $9.99 and I am 19. I've been reading about diversion programs, and I wonder if this is my best option and how I could go about getting in one. Can I complete the program if I have to move away for school?

These cases are most difficult because the company will not want to lessen the prosecution. These companies have significant losses based upon theft. We gave had good fortune negotiating with the General Counsel of these companies. You need the company's cooperation. Ed Dimon, esq
