What should I do if my previous employer is probably going to charge me with embezzlement of about $14,000?
I haven’t been charged yet and I have no prior record. I have 2 children and I’m currently employed.

Frankly, you need to get a lawyer. I know I'm a lawyer, and it may seem that I'm self-promoting, but if you're prosecuted in a District Court, that's going to look very serious--and, unless handled correctly, you may be unemployable depending on your occupation.
