The investigator said he was giving me until Friday to give him the stolen items. He said after Friday he would put out a warrant for my arrest. He also says he can hold me until a trial and I will have to prove my case to a jury.

Is there anything I can do?

Can he arrest me without evidence I did anything. I didn't take anything. The person who is the "witness" has not liked me since I first them. I don't know what I can do at this point, I took nothing, and have nothing to return.

Why is the investigator giving ne two days before he files a warrant?

Thanks so much for the help

Answer: You can hire an attorney. If you bring back the items you provide evidence against yourself. If you make a statement, the statement can be used against you in court. As far as evidence, the investigator has the words of the witness as evidence right now. I suggest that you hire an attorney. If you do nto speak to the investigator he will prepare a warrant, and you will be arrested. After you are in custody, it will be tougher to get an attorney.
