What is the name of your state? California
I am being accused of stealing two diamond rings from my roomate. I didn't do it and have reason to believe from past situations that she is committing insurance fraud. She is adamant that I did this. She accused me about one month ago and came into my room with a tin box (which I guess held the rings) which she told me to look at and asked if it looked familiar. I touched it and handed it back to her. This is the box she claims her rings were in. I thought nothing of it at the time. Now she is claiming she gave that box to our landlord who has supposed police connections and they scanned the box, lifted her fingerprints off and mine were on there. Whether this is true I don't know. She is telling me I am going to be investigated for this. What am I suppose to do? Should I get a lawyer? How do I defend myself since basically it is my word against hers? What are my rights? Thanks for any help.
