Or even her last name it turned out that her and the store manager were friends and he fired her without letting me know what time she came in the store to have her prosecuted management knew I wanted to press charges and did not hold her as a thief in the store they let her go on the run she had stolen $280 from me what rights were violated and what actions can I take I went to work at 10am the next morning since the girl had left the store at 5pm yesterday with my money after purchasing a pack of cigarettes from me with my money and I started my shift at 345pm that day so it took me till 1pm to finally manage to reach an operator that would help me that morning because my manager did not have her information ready for the police what are my options? is it a conflict of interest? what rights were violated?
