Sylvia has just graduated from law school and is completing her application to become a member of her state bar association. She is concerned about a theft conviction from several years ago. She pled guilty and got probation. She successfully completed the probation and it is all behind her. However, there is a question on the bar application about "any prior convictions" and Sylvia is concerned that her past will keep her from the future she wants. Sylvia should:
A) omit the conviction and, if it comes up later, admit that it was omitted intentionally to show good moral character.
B) omit the conviction and use a false social security number so the conviction will not be discovered.
C) omit the conviction and, if it comes up later, just say that the omission was a simple error.
D) tell the truth on her application because lying or omitting will be seen as evidence of bad moral character.
