My boyfriend has been working at a pizza joint for 2 years now. Last week he was fired because his boss believes he has been stealing money.
He didn't steal the money, we have financial paperwork to verify we have had no extra incoming funds, we're just poor college students. First his boss told us he stole $3,000 and now it's $10,000. This is ridiculous and impossible. There are 20-30 employees working on the tills at all times, and all using the same password. The only thing they have to prove his guilt is a "witness", who is the owners brother and has despised my boyfriend since his first day and that most of the money was stolen on his shifts. No other employees have been investigated, including the 2-3 people that also worked when the money was stolen. They have no security cameras. His boss is threatening to call his insurance agency, unless we pay him $3,000 by next week. We don't have this kind of money, nor have we ever. This is my boyfriends last few quarters at the university, and this could dismiss his financial aid. My question: Is it worth it to try and scrounge money together to pay him off or would it be smart to wait until the insurance agency contacts us? What happens now? He has 2 disorderly conduct charges from his past, and I'm afraid that if this went to court he could be charged with a felony and get serious time. Please help us!
