I would first of all get a lawyer right away. Second do not give any statements to the police or anyone. Third get a statement from the person about being offered money to say that you did it. This may be a crime.

It sounds like you need a good lawyer. It helps if your friend is willing to testify on your behalf, but you do not want this charge on your record so you should get the best representation possible.

You will be entitled to a trial, and other remedies depending on the facts.

You need to hire a lawyer before you make a wrong move, like open your mouth to the wrong folks, or sign a document you should not be signing.

Let your attorney know the identity of this witness. That alone will not automatically get you off, but it may help depending on the other evidence if any.
