    Question Caught Shoplifting, Not Arrested and No Warrant Issued

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Michigan
    I got a notice from a clothing store that I "may" have been involved in item/items missing from there store...and if I pay X amount of dollars to them before a certain date they won't proceed with further action...

    -First question-
    1. If they are saying "may" do they have solid evidence that I actually took things??
    2. I did not get stopped at that store the day of the crime and even went in that store at a later date and nobody talked to me about the items...why not?
    3. Why was no warrant issued for that crime if they truly think I stole from there company?

    They are likely saying maybe for one of a couple reasons;

    they have some evidence you were but not enough to actually accuse you and are "fishing"

    or they are just using the term to avoid the possibility of slandering you since a person is innocent until proven guilty in court.


    Number 2: you would have to ask them


    Number 3; again, you would have to ask them

    If you did not steal, you have nothing to worry about. The video will show you are innocent. Otherwise it could provide the basis for criminal charges.
