You definitely need help! It sounds like you are saying the alleged statement is very incriminating. There are a lot of possible ways to get it suppressed from use at trial. You need a lawyer immediately.
Understand that anything you say might be used as evidence against you in court. Accordingly you should not say or write anything. Instead, you should seek a confidential consultation with an experienced criminal defense attorney. Online posts are not confidential. If law-enforcement word to somehow find your post, then it might be used as evidence against you. Ultimately, a judge would decide in a suppression hearing whether your statement was free and voluntary.
