Hey from South Carolina guys
Several months ago I was arrested for financial identity fraud. As it turns out and I was sure to begin with I wasn't guilty of the charge. At the bond hearing I was understandably upset and really gave the judge a piece of my mind because I wasn't guilty.
Now this is what's happened. I was working for a car wash which not to mention made you clock out when you weren't washing a car. The manager had decided to make out checks in employees names one of the victims being myself. At first until I talk to my roommate which was also working at the business I had thought someone had probably stolen ID and cashed a check in my name. However upon closer examination I did remember that there was no need to have an ID because the managers simply told the store owner who was working for the car wash and checks were cashed for people without proper identification. I a couple months or so before the said offense did quit. This was due to a two-week paycheck being written for $200. I probably was guilty of saying some real nasty things just before I told them I would do them a favor and not come back on their property. That being the end of it I thought I hadn't even thought of the car wash until sometime in January or February when a County Deputy arrested me at my home for the said offense. Due to that I spent six days in jail. I finally made bond and about a month ago 2 investigators from the jurisdiction of the offense appeared at my home to interview me about the wrongdoing.
Obviously I'm wondering what remedy I have due to being wrongly arrested. Is there a civil side to this and if so what is my course of action?
