What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? West Virgina

I was terminated from my previous employer because I stole money from them. I did admit it to the employer and their security person and was recorded. They gave me 90 days to secure the funds to avoid criminal charges. However, due to the fact I was unemployed and was not able and still have not been able to find a job I could not secure funds. I asked for an extention but was never answered on the extention, only answer received was that they now believe I took more then what they orginally suspected. I understand I commited a crime and I understand there is a penalty for that. My concern is I am a single mom and I don't know what will happen. I've never done anything like this, it was stupid and I know but I am scared to death at this point. Anyone with any advice please I would so much appreciate it.What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?

Felony theft or petit theft? Ever been convicted of a crime before?

My advice to you is to get an attorney. Don't speak to the police without him/her present. You might also want to make alternative plans for your child(ren) in the event that you might have to "relocate" for a while.
