Can anyone help 'clear up confusion?'
I am confused! If I was being wrongfully accused of taking something not mine, be it money or whatever, I don't think I would be trying to give it back to the owner. That would go against the grain, to give something back that I didn't take. That, regardless of what an attorney says, sounds like guilt to me.
So here is why I am confused. Why would a person offer to give something back, if they didn't take it in the first place? And why would an attorney not advise their client of how that looks? Why not let a jury decide if I took these things or not? And then, if they decided I did take these items, they could order me to return or pay restitution.
Mind you, I'm not an attorney. But that would make more sense to me, rather than offer to give back something I hadn't taken. So, if anyone can clear this confusion up for me I would be grateful.

no confusion at all wrote on Aug 5, 2009 5:51 PM:
" Mrs. Snoots has anough experience with teh courts to know how it works. A person enters a plea to a specific charge so if you're acused of one charge but are guility of another you can only plead not guilty. and how can any one enter something other than not guilty if the courts haven't provided the lawyer with copies of the complaint and evidence? even the couthy's attorney admitted the accused hasn't received any of the documents. If Mrs. Snoots is still confused I suggest she take 2 aspirins and call a lawyer. I hope she doens't vote because I wouldn;t want her on a jury for my familk or friends. "
