I got fired for stealing at Wal-Mart. They said there was a tape but wouldn't show it. Because they talking me into making a statement or I would be arrested. This was a week after they said I did it.

It is not legally required that an employer have a tape to fire an employee for stealing. Claiming that it has a tape of you stealing when it does not actually have such a tape might create an inference that the reason stated for your termination was pretextual. That may be helpful if you think you might have a case for wrongful employment discrimination based on your race, color, ethnicity, national origin, disability, religion, age, or pregnancy.
