Melissa, you did not say if you actually committed the crime or not. If you are indeed innocent, then request "discovery" to see the store's security video and request a witness list that they would be using against you.
If on the other hand, you actually did the deed, I would recommend that you just own up to it and move on with your life. By doing so the state attorney may be more inclined to offer a deal.
**** You most definitely need to depose the store clerk that rang up the sale in the first place. If you are telling the truth, she is your alibi.

Normally first theft or shoplifting under $5000 will give u warning and on 2nd attempt ur first offence will be considered.If u are sure u did the theft then plead guilty honestly and make promise will not repeat in future.U will be OK after few days...

if you were caught by retail loss prevention then prolly not. plead guilty.
we don't apprehend unless we are 100% and we have steps in place to ensure this fact...... stop stealing
EDIT: the update says, to the best of my translation : you walked away from the point of sale, and your friend handed you the bag with items you did not pay for in it? if that is correct, your gonna have to prove it. if that is the case, get a laywer.

Is the party being prosecuted guilty or not? Need a little more info. Talk to a lawyer. Consultation is often free.

if it was in a department store they have a video tape of what happened. if the tape supports your statement, you are fine.
have your attorney ask to review the tape when he gets to the discovery phase of your trial

It did not happen. If you are guilty, don't bother looking for an out. You won't find one.
