I was accused of theft and terminated. I told them i did not and tried to explain. Senior management questioned me and kept saying that if i didn't confess and sign their paper, they were going to call the police for felony theft. After about * hours of interrogation, I signed it and they advised me that I needed to sign my last * checks over to start a payment plan because they were cutting me a deal. I finally just signed it and told them I just wanted to leave. Is there anything I can do now?
