Hi, I was caught for stealing $40 worth of items. They took my ID and a picture of me and made me sign a 12 month trespass notice. There was no police involvement. The security explained that I will be in their database for 12 months. What will this mean? Will my name be completely cleared from their system after 12 months? Or is it only the trespass notice that expires after 12 months? Thanks

It means nothing.
Shop somewhere else.
And get help for why you're stealing stuff.

Did the police end up coming to your house?
