    Default Officer Appears to Believe I Filed a False Police Report

    My question involves police conduct in the State of: ohio I am a victim in a robbery where there was no money taken and its been 3 months and they cant find out who did it a week ago they called me to the police station and wanted to review the case with me well the officer told me he put it on crime stoppers and got an annoymous tip that I set up the robbery to get out of working nights at my job which I still work nights...went home and checked crime stopppers its not on there so I dont believe there is a tip did he lie to me to try and get me to ammit to something I didnt do? they have my statement ,surveiilance video of the guy and my bosses statement I was on the phone with her when it happened. I have no criminal record and dont have any part in this do I have anything to worry about? there is no evidence of me setting it p because I didnt do it. My husband says not to be worried because they have to proof it they want me to take a polygraph test and I read up on those and either way its not a good idea because I could be nervous and fail. Please help ease my mind am I going to be arrested I have a family that needs me I am innocent.

    You do not have to take a polygraph or even speak to the police. No one can say what proof they might have or not, or if they are simply guessing. Only YOU know whether you had anything to do with making anything up or not. Keep in mind that if you do not cooperate with the police, your employer might decide to let you go ... though, they might do that even if you DO cooperate.

    Ultimately, the choice is yours. And, if you were involved in making the report up, I would recommend speaking to legal counsel ASAP.
