In a candid recounting of past criminal activity, an individual shared their experience of participating in a robbery at their workplace when they were 20 years old. The incident, which occurred in 1999, involved the individual leaving a back door open and providing their cousins with the safe's code, leading to the theft of money. Following the crime, the group split the proceeds among themselves.
In March 2000, the individual faced legal consequences for their actions, receiving a sentence that included six months in jail, five years of probation, and a restitution order totaling $6,000, which was to be paid collectively by all involved. However, the individual reported that they ended up shouldering the entire financial burden alone, as their cousins did not contribute. Despite being advised that they could pursue legal action against their cousins for reimbursement, the individual opted not to do so, ultimately fulfilling the restitution requirement independently.
