possible consequences for juvenile caught shoplifting in CO state

Unless you beat the charges this can stay on your record and haunt you for job applications.
Do not speak about these charges or the incident until a lawyer is on the case for you. Get a lawyer because if this is not handled well these charges can be a big hurdle for getting into a home mortgage, a college or finding a job. You have rights but you need to act to protect those rights.

Get a good lawyer so you can answer for your situation, but still be able to move on with life.
