Default Re: Weird spot with friend and possible jailtime

Also talk to him because if he did steal why would he not go to jail.?

I thought this one was obvious. Many companies would prefer that a thief pay restitution as opposed to jail time. Obviously, they fire the guy and don't give a reference to a future employer. Pressing charges is not usually the first option they prefer (unless customers are involved or people are injured in a robbery).

Another thing is that CVS probably don't want the publicity. They don't want every petty thief in town to know it's possible to lift $6k from one of their stores.
