I USED to bartend for Ruby Tuesday's in my hometown. Well we started getting high bar costs i.e. employee theft. I was questioned in a room with my manager and Ruby's head of loss prevention. They said they had quite a bit of evidence on me and could probably be prosicuited if I didn't cooperate. So I said what they wanted me to say, and I signed a confession saying that I had stolen $2,000 dollars of liquor. I thought that signing the paper that I would be free. I haven't been arrested however I have a court dat in 2 weeks so I don't know if I should plead guilty (less punishment) or plead not guilty (defend myself). I later found they had NO proof they only tried to get me to confess. I found I have three angles 1. I signed under duress 2. possibly malious prosicution 3. the confession was taken not under oath. So if i could get a couple of standpoints I would appreciate it.
