Felony Larceny Charges Against College Student do Not Issue After Clerk Magistrate Hearing
Our client is a college student with a 3.9 GPA at a top 10 university in the Boston area. In March of this year he was at a department store known for its high end clothing. Succumbing to temptation, the man secreted a designer jacket in a bag that he had from another store. The jacket cost over $1,200, thereby making its theft a felony in Massachusetts. Loss prevention personnel saw the activity and confirmed it on security videos. Our client was detained and questioned. He admitted to his criminal activity and received a summons for a clerk magistrate hearing charging him larceny over $1,200 in violation of G.L. c. 266 section 30. Our office was hired to defend him. Today, we convinced the clerk magistrate not to issue the complaint. There will be no record of this individual’s criminal activity.
