Q: What is what is the stipulations of knowingly concealing
I didn't know until days later
A:
Not sure exactly what your question is, but here is the language from OS Title 21 Sec. 1713:
“Every person who, without making reasonable inquiry, buys, receives, conceals, withholds, or aids in concealing or withholding any property which has been stolen, embezzled, obtained by false pretense or robbery, or otherwise feloniously obtained, under such circumstances as should cause such person to make reasonable inquiry to ascertain that the person from whom such property was bought or received had the legal right to sell or deliver it shall be presumed to have bought or received such property knowing it to have been so stolen or wrongfully obtained. This presumption may, however, be rebutted by proof.“
For felony “Knowingly Concealing Stolen Property” charge, the range of punishment is anywhere from two (2) years to eight (8) years in the state penitentiary along with fines and costs. You will definitely want to consult and retain a seasoned attorney to represent you in this matter.
