My question involves criminal law for the state of: Oregon
I recently was caught stealing from my employer. I would return items that were bought by customers, without the items present, and load the return value onto a card used for store credit. I would then purchase things in the store under my employee account using the store credit. The total of the items returned and store credit used was $1,504.58.
I was called into my managers office and had a conference call with her and the LP from HQ. After it was clear what the conversation was about and that all the breadcrumbs very clearly led to me, I admitted what I had done. I wrote out an expression of guilt, the LP on the line (who was surprisingly nice) told me to include my feelings about what I had done. The entire thing was handled internally and no outside law enforcement was called in.
Once the conversation was done I offered to return any items I had with me that I had bought with the store credit, they said that was a good place to start and they would note that I offered it. I was then, very politely, escorted out of the building by my manager. She went out of her way to not make it obvious I was being escorted out.
I realize non of the niceties they showed me will matter for whatever comes next, I just felt it was part of the story I needed to tell.
What can I expect in the future and will my admission end up helping or hurting my case?
