My question involves criminal law for the state of: Texas
I was confronted about various refund transactions at the store I work at. More specifically they accused me of using another associate's id number to refund money to my credit card. The only proof they have to accuse me is the transaction but no video evidence.Moreover every employee has his own id number and requires a password to do refund. So isn't their claim baseless?
But they made me clock out and I was in the room with two lp's for about 2-3 hours and they told me they will let me go only if I confess to these transactions. Scared and regardless of how much I denied it, they would not let me go. They made me finally say what they wanted and I had to sign it. They charged me for over 3000 dollars over a period of a year. I am absolutely sure that even if I did questionable transactions, I did not financially benefit from any transaction except for one in which I received 150 dollars . The police were called after I had confessed and they said some one will call me to let me know when I have to go the police court. According to the law what is the maximum possible sentence I can receive? What other advice can you give me other than contacting a lawyer, which I will do?
