hello i am looking for advice regarding theft...here is my story.
I work for a clothing store in the mall and i have been working there for 3 years. so to the story i was working one night and there was a so called cop or lets say rent a cop that came in for an overnight to watch a cleaning staff. He was there for about an hour or two before all of us employees left the store. Not thinking anything I just grabbed my stuff coat and bookbag, i usually go to work right after work so i always have my book bag with me, i keep my lunch in there and medication i need through out the day. so anyways we are leaving the store and the manager asks to see all of our bags. this being normal i let her look in mine and she takes out 3 bottles of cologne and tells everyone else to go . we go into the office and she asks if i took them. i reply with no. i have never stole anything from there and never would. the rent a cop then basically tries to scare me to admit that i did but i know i didnt. He tries to say i watched you with my own eyes put them in my bag ect..... I however know for a fact that i did not and believe that possibly i was being set up by someone. Also i noticed the next day that a $200 gift card i had in my bag was stolen. I would like to know what could happen. i can tell you that there are no cameras to show that i so called stole, i never left the store, so the merchandise was not taken, the rent a cop supposibly saw me take them, but im wondering if he did see me take them why didnt he confront me right away? that would make sense wouldnt it ? I am suppose to meet with the companies lose prevention in two days, i have never admitted to stealing nor will I. the items total 150 dollars. what can i do and what should i do ?
