Q. Detective Questioned for embezzlement from work place. said he would get back with me, any suggestions

A: The strongest evidence in a court of law is when a defendant accused of a crime opens their mouth and gives a confession. Most seasoned criminal defense attorneys will tell you never to talk to law-enforcement when you know you’re under investigation for having committed a crime.

Having said that, since we really don’t know the specifics of your case (what type of alleged embezzlement is involved and whether you even gave any helpful information or a confession to law-enforcement), you should immediately contact a criminal defense attorney to discuss.
