Legal Question in Employment Law in Florida

I was recently arrested and spent one night in jail. Since that time my employer placed me on unpaid leave until the "situation" can be investigated. I was asked to write a statement as to what happened and provide a copy of my bookong/charge papers, which I did. That was over a week ago, an when I asked what was the result, they stated they needed a more detailed statement. I would like to know if I can claim Unemployement because of this? My bills are growing, yet have no savings to pay them or for the court costs of this incident.
