My question involves criminal law for the state of: Texas
I was contacted by a detective by a letter in the mail stating that if I dont contact him that he would issue a warrant out for my arrest.
The incident: so I drove my friend to tomb thumb one day so he could get beer. I waited in the car while he shopped. I got a letter in the mail a couple weeks later from the police department telling me to contact the detective or else he would issue a warrant out for my arrest. Apparently they have a video of ME walking out with a stolen case of beer, and they tracked me down by my license plate. I never stepped out of my car, but the detective is convinced it was me. Now I have a meeting with the detective at 2 to discuss the incident and so he could give me a citation which he told me is "only" a class C misdemeanor. I was overwhelmed at the moment when I told him I'll go down and meet with him which made it sound like an admission of guilt. I feel like this would affect my job employment in the future(I am in the finance sector) I dont want this to go on my record, and I'm worried about the meeting, because I don't want to say anything I'll regret later. I can't afford a lawyer.
How would I go about resolving this issue?
