No, no, no. Please, please, please. No, NO, NO, NO, NO. >> STOP RESISTING. We're going to make this worse. >> What the HELL WAS THAT? GET ON THE GROUND. STOP IT. >> Give me my shoe. You don't >> I'm not an angel. I do wrong. And yes, I stole, but I stole for a good reason. It's not like I was just stealing from >> I didn't do nothing. >> Don't do that. >> Keep looking. But I found Windows. So, you said it was doctor's appointments, but I see windows written here. So, I'm just >> This looks like hit. You're helping load stolen goods into the back of the Uber. >> On the 1st of May 2026, officers were dispatched to a Walmart parking lot after receiving a report that a woman had loaded multiple unpaid items into her vehicle. Even more concerning, her young son was caught in the middle of the situation. First, here's what happened when officers arrived at the scene. >> Can you call back the complainant and find out what items were not paid for? Yes, I just want to go home and get my nap. I have to take my son's home, brother. Sit back and put your seat belt back on. What are you doing? We are going to go to McDonald's. You need to stop. I've had that. That I've had that. >> You know what? You know what? Yes, I did. Here, take it. You can have it back to him. >> No. See, you're in the office. We're way beyond. I'll take it back. >> No, no, no, no. We're way beyond. Stop. Go up to my car. >> I cannot >> go to my car. >> Get out of the car. She believed that returning the stolen merchandise would erase the crime she had already committed. Fearing she might flee, officers attempted to pull her out of the vehicle, but her resistance quickly turned the situation into chaos. >> Go to the ground. >> STOP. >> STOP. >> STOP. STOP RIGHT THERE. >> STOP IT. >> STOP. PLEASE. >> YOU ARE DOING THIS. NO. NO. PLEASE. Let me call my mom. >> Stop. >> I ask you to please let ME CALL MY MOM. ROLL. >> You're also getting resisting arrest. >> I already have one of those. >> Oh, now you got another. >> I'm not resisting. I can't breathe, you know. >> Roll her over. >> Roll over. Sit. Sit up. >> Sit up. >> Okay. >> I I can't. You can't. >> Stand up. >> No, we are way beyond that. Stand up. >> I have to call my mom. >> Stand up. >> Stand up. >> Clearly, her behavior was not something she should have displayed in front of her family. She seemed to care only about herself. At this point, she even began portraying herself as the victim. >> Oh, my arm. OH, MY ARM. OH, PLEASE LET GO THAT. Let go that arm. Let go that arm. >> Oh my god. No. Go. No. Let go of my arm. Unless you mean no way that No, we are way past that. >> Hey, I cooperated. I >> No, you did not. >> I did. I finally I said fine. Here, take it. >> That is not cooperation. >> That is cooperation. >> No, it is not. >> Yes, sir. It is. >> What is your name? >> Kathy Storm. >> Okay. Do you know her phone number off the top of your head? >> I do. >> Okay. In Kai. >> I want to call I want to call my friend, but I don't know her phone number off the top of my head cuz she needs to find something to pick up her son if you're arresting me. >> This is your mother? Yes. >> And you want her to take come take your son? >> She's got to come get my car and my son. >> Okay. That's all we're worried about right now. What What do you want the other friend for? >> I Because I have to have her pick up find someone else to pick up the son cuz I still take her son out to go eat. She's >> What's your mother's name? >> Kathy's farm. Stop talking and let me talk. Now it is my turn. >> You had your turn. Now it's >> No, obviously I do. >> Obviously, you're not getting >> No, it's not. My son's right there. >> We are getting in the car. If you don't get in the car, you're going to give instructions right away. >> It seems she still failed to realize that she was the one who had caused the situation. [music] She continued to believe she had done nothing wrong. And before long, she started resisting once again. Give me my >> Give me my shoe. >> Hey, let me go. Give me my shoe. Just let me go. Get in the car. >> Grandma, give me >> Stop. >> He hates the police. YOU GUYS ARE [ __ ] GET IN the car. Get in the car. >> Get in the car. I'm in the car. >> You were getting all the way in the car. Now you're getting >> That was supposed to be mom who were trying to call. Put your feet in the car. We're done. Put your feet in the car. >> I will soon as you finish talking. >> Put your feet in the car. >> In the car. I said put my feet >> all the way in the car. >> Put my feet in the car. >> After repeated efforts by the officers, she finally began providing the contact information of a guardian for the family member who was still sitting in the vehicle. She showed little concern for her family member and even started using the situation to make herself appear pitiful in hopes of avoiding arrest. >> The reason I have to deal is because I don't have any money. I don't have anybody to help me. Yes, my mom is there, but she won't help me. >> I I literally live off of tiff. I have no money. I have to provide for my son. I lost everything. I just left domestic violence situation. I just got out of his shelter, Adrian. >> Yeah, we're here with him. And I I just want to go home and be with my son. I'm scared out of my mind as it is. Nobody's helped me with the domestic violence. Nobody's helped me with anything. It's all for me. My son is traumatized as it is. I just want to go home. Please. I don't need to go to jail. I won't go back to Walmart. >> All right. >> I'll I'll be I promise I'll I'll do better. Just please don't arrest me. >> I I [laughter] understand. >> I just want to go home. >> Listen to me. Okay. Will you listen to me? >> Okay. I can understand that you're down and out. Okay. And you're trying to survive. All right. >> It's wireless. Hear me out. Okay. I heard you out, right? >> Okay. But there is plenty plenty of resources that could have helped you. >> I have to call home. Nobody's helping. >> You could have you could have probably gone home with a citation. >> Okay. So, but I wasn't resisting. I really wasn't. >> I was here. >> I wasn't resisting. I was telling I was trying to talk to him. He wouldn't let me talk. So then, oh, now you're getting resisting because you won't listen. No, I'm not going to leave my son sitting here by himself. >> What do you think about her reason for stealing after hearing her admit it? She clearly showed no remorse. Even more astonishingly, she went on to insist that it was a completely justified reason. >> I'm not an angel. I do wrong. And yes, I stole, but I stole for good reason. It's not like I was just stealing to steal. >> Okay. There's stuff in there like Red Bulls. There's stuff in there like >> I had I got those from Nom Nom. >> Yeah, it's all in the bag. It's all been stolen. >> It's a Red Bull. There shouldn't be a Red Bull in the bag. I got all my Red Bulls from from Nom Nom down there. >> I don't know what to tell you. >> I I mean, I put some put my a couple of my drinks in there. I think >> Let me ask you stealing. I got them from Nom Nom. >> Cuz that's what I get all my drinks. >> Are you self-medicating? >> No. >> I just want to go home and be with my baby, please. >> Well, let's go take care of this. The sooner we take care of it, the sooner you can get home. Okay. So, put your feet in for me, please. You got to get your slide around. >> Can I please? >> You can put your feet up underneath this the thing. You don't want your son to see you like this. >> He's already seen it. >> Yeah, you don't want to bring him over here for a second. Talk to him. >> Well, whoever your friend is that's coming can bring him over here. We're not doing it. >> Please let me do it. Let me just take me over there. >> Put your feet in. >> Please let me talk to him. I'm acting nicely. I'm not. And his coughs are tight as >> Okay. and it hurts biting into my arm. >> Then let's get you to the jail. >> No, I don't need to take you to jail. >> In the end, she was taken to jail and face charges of retail theft, obstructing justice, resisting arrest, and contributing to the delinquency of a child. People can face far more serious consequences when they refuse to take responsibility for their actions. Accepting accountability and cooperating with law enforcement often leads to a better outcome than making excuses or resisting an arrest. 3rd of July 2025, officers approached a woman on the street who had been reported for panhandling and disturbing customers at a racetrack store. It was not the first time as officers had already recognized her from prior incidents involving loitering, panhandling, and digging through trash at multiple businesses. This was what unfolded next. >> I didn't do nothing. >> Don't do that. Don't do that. Don't do that. Don't do that. Don't do that. Hey, hang on. We're going to tase you. I'm going to tase you. I'm going to tase her. Stop it. >> I'm going to tase you. >> Stop it. >> Stop. We're fighting. Radio. We're fighting. No. Ow. >> Ow. [screaming] Ow. >> ROLL OVER. ROLL OVER. >> ROLL OVER. >> I thought I give his hand. Good run. >> I got in this neighborhood. I feel magical. I need more than me. I want to go to jail. I messed up. I ran from her. >> The woman completely lost control of her speech as the chaos unfolded. This showed she was mentally unstable and it was clear it would not be easy to stop. >> Hold on. Good. Just relax. I'm a I'm a dead one. I won. I won. You guys, you just said, "Don't use your name." >> Don't use your name. I'm going to go home. I'm blind. I miss my mama. You're a car.

They just met a girl in a Oh, >> have a seat. >> This is the cops raping you. >> Come on. >> Oh, Amber. Amber. Ah, mama. >> I only found one. >> Oh my god. [screaming] You can't pull away from us. >> I have a warrant. Cop ran. I'm so scared. Why not? I could ever I thought she mental health. This is so >> Immediately after successfully detaining the woman, officers made several observations about what had just occurred. >> Started fighting us. Then she took off running. So I pushed her down. >> Uhhuh. >> Then she started kicking us with her feet. That Amber girl from the >> Oh, that crazy. I had to fight with her. Physically fight with her. >> So she took off running. So I pushed her on top of her shoulders, push her down on the ground. And when she turned around, she did all this kicking. So we ended up just we tried. He couldn't get a hold of her. >> You got your taser. >> I got this. >> Yeah, we're good with that. >> I don't know where the other probe is. >> Yeah. American station. >> Yeah, we got all that. We'll take care of all that. >> She just keeps digging in trash cans. >> Go ahead and take her to the station. I >> might be stuck inside of under her clothes or something. >> We'll flip again. At this point, officers tried to ensure no taser barbs remained lodged in her body, but she seemed unconcerned, which only made things messier. >> Turn around. >> What are you doing? >> I got to find my other probe that we t >> like you can't pull nothing out of my damn body full of eggs. >> You're not dead. >> I heard it myself. It's not real. >> You're not dead. >> My first step that we were scammer, >> how you doing? Listen. >> No, my grandma said come home. Officers then returned to the store to collect statements directly from staff and understand what had happened. >> Do you even know why we got called out here? >> Did y'all call? >> She was inside. She had some tickets. She was asking, going around to different guests, bothering them. Hey, can you help me out? Pay for this, pay for that. I had a guest come to me and complain. That's when I called. But I also saw her myself and other another man. >> It's just a thing to leave. Yeah, so yeah. Um, >> she was out here doing it. I didn't say anything to her. I was like, "The police are going to come up." >> Yeah. >> But she also, no, I'm lying. I did say something to her inside when she was actually at the register >> going to people. I said, "Hey, ma'am. I can have you do that." She ignored me and continued to do it. So, that's when I called someone. >> Gotcha. >> So, and then she kept >> Yeah. Because we don't have no security. She don't have security guard on her. So, I try not to do too much. >> Yeah. Don't do anything. You just call us. We'll hand it. Yeah. >> So, yeah. I just called y'all. Did uh did you see the incident where the officer >> someone had already stopped her? >> Like an officer or a person? >> Yeah, a officer had already stopped her. >> Then he walked over. Yeah. >> She just charges at him and throws her back. That's all I see. >> Oh, she starts fighting the officer. >> That's not him. >> Oh, how'd that work? >> Yeah, cuz anything you say to her, she was going off even when she was over here. >> Oh, so she's extra aggressive. >> She want to bag at him or whatever. But I'm I'm on the phone. I ain't recording, but I flipped the camera and Jess was paying attention. Yeah, she she was slanging on him. >> Got you. >> Okay. >> The suspect was then transported to the police station, but her condition showed no improvement and officers had to make efforts to assist her. >> Oh, I'm a police report. I just tried to go. >> I'll get your police report. Don't worry about >> No, I'm a police. I'll tell y'all didn't say DNA. I said whatever. >> So, don't pull it. My body hurts. >> Okay. >> My body hurts too bad. Take me to Grady so they can pull it out. I want to find out if this kid they took home has DNA from one of these cops and they have to do a small test if they show as that. >> I got an coming to check your injuries. Okay. >> And we're in church. >> It's in our left tip. Take it out. No, wait for your grand to get here. Don't pull that thing out my body. >> That's why you didn't feel it. >> You got rotten. >> I did the real life. >> Amber Barber was arrested and charged with loitering, obstruction of a law enforcement officer, and disorderly conduct. The key lesson, mental instability can escalate situations quickly, and patience plus proper support is essential when dealing with individuals in crisis. Next, [music] this woman stole during Thanksgiving as if the holiday gifts belong to her. >> All the clothes and stuff. >> Yeah. >> All this stuff right here. >> Okay. >> And right here. >> They're going to jail for theft. >> What's the What is the state jail? What is the >> state jail felony? >> No. On the 30th of March 2024, police received a report from Walmart about a woman who pushed a cart full of Easter baskets and related merchandise out of the store without paying. When approached, both the suspect and her companions suspiciously denied everything. >> Ma'am, hi. Can I talk to you? >> Who's all in the car with you? >> What? >> So, we got a call from Walmart saying that you stole some items from them. >> Not me. I wasn't I didn't even go in Walmart. >> You weren't in Walmart? >> No, ma'am. >> Okay. Okay. And then how many other people are inside the car? >> Relax. You just put your stuff down for me. Do you have an ID on you? >> Yes. >> Okay, there's more inside. >> My baby in there, ma'am. I was just giving them a ride. Yeah. I don't know what's going on. I was just giving them riding. She told me to take some back. So, make sure to police department. Stop the police. We got a report about a shoplifting that occurred at Walmart. They described this vehicle. They described you. They described that female there. Okay. You have any weapons on you? >> Okay. I'm going to check for weapons. Okay. Just turn around. Face away from me. You're not under arrest. Okay. You're just a tank. Just like that. Just for you. >> Really? >> Okay. >> Have a seat on the curb right here. >> You got your ID on you? >> Yeah. >> Yeah. I ain't got time for this cuz I'm dealing with CPS. I just closed my >> So, who were you giving a ride? Who is that in there? >> No. >> Who is she to? Um, she's my home girl, but that's her boyfriend. >> She said she got her ear passed. >> I need your ID. >> Three suspects were identified, making the case far more complicated. One remained silent. Another tried to steer the conversation elsewhere, while the third calmly denied everything, as if they were all professionals at this. >> The report that we got accurately described this gentleman and that and that lady there. Okay. And the cult. All right. and the merchandise that's in >> what? >> They stole over $100 worth of Easter merchandise which is in the car right now. >> Okay. >> Are you aware of this? >> He was not. He was coming over here to get our car and was >> You were going to go back in and pay for it? >> No. >> It's about shoplifting. They saw you shoplift from Walmart. >> Okay. Is that your girl? >> Her name was Simon. >> Who's that? Frank. >> Frank. Did she steal? >> No. >> No one stole? >> No. >> Did you go into Walmart? >> No. >> Yeah. Did you get anything? >> No. >> Okay. >> I don't know what they was doing, ma'am. I was just giving her a ride and Yeah. I needed the gas. >> I promise you. >> Yeah. So, what's the issue? >> You didn't pay for it before you left the store is the issue. That's called stealing theft. Right. >> Actually, I was looking for my boyfriend. >> Okay. So, she said um she got her income tax to give her a ride and uh she was going to give me some gas and I needed the gas cuz I just got my car cuz I had got my income tax. >> I haven't seen her in like in a long time. My case closed. >> Your case for what? >> Uh CPS. And I don't need all this. I just need gas, ma'am. I swear >> people exited the store with merchandise without paying for that merchandise, which is a criminal offense, which is why we are here. Does that make sense? >> That does make sense. >> I really didn't ask them anything. I don't know what to tell. >> To get a clearer picture of what had happened, one officer entered the loss prevention office where employees provided surveillance footage along with their statements. stuff. I watched her earlier where she she didn't have like she started selecting like the clothing, the Easter basket >> cuz I felt like I was left. You know what I mean? >> Like your boyfriend left you >> right with the card to pay for the I got >> because she said that she got two bunnies and she didn't need it. She didn't need the two bunnies because she don't have enough. She don't got no more money and she needs to pay me my gas. That's exactly what she just said. So then she gave me the stuff and I was about to take it and then she like walked the front pacing around kept looking at the doors and finally uh she cut through. >> Were the other two with her or >> the guy was but he wasn't with her the whole time and I don't know if she tried to ask for a receipt but they just walked on on by with the stuff and I they were already out of the parking lot by the time I could stop them. >> Do you have video? >> Yeah, I'm pulling up video of everything. all those items. She was selecting Easter baskets. So, I'm trying to remember what time I started selecting Easter baskets. >> So, I was in there. We were shopping for stuff Easter obviously. And then like I thought he left me and he went to the restroom. I was looking for my credit card. He had it. But I was on the phone with my friend. She was making it more than what it was. She was like, "Oh, he probably took off on you. He probably left with some." As I'm walking like with the basket, I'm like talking to him. I was not even aware like at the moment literally. And that's when my friend was like, "We're all going to go back in here with the stuff and pay for it >> cuz he had my card." >> Okay. Yeah, that's not what she's saying. So that's completely contradicting her earlier denials. The woman tried to shift the blame onto her boyfriend instead of admitting to stealing the merchandise. By that point, the officers had seen enough to make their decision. >> See, how are y'all considering this? >> Cuz you passed all points of sale without paying for it. >> We were right here going back. Like we literally I talked to the employees >> and we got here you were sitting in the car. That's the pickle that we're in. That's the predicament that we're trying to work through >> where I seen her cut through the register, go to the restroom. I was like, "Dang her." And then she walked out the door with us. So criminal. >> Hi. Do you want to stick her? >> So she is going to stay with us. You want to stick her? What I'm going to do is grab the property that came from Walmart out of your car. >> Okay. >> And then you are going to be good to go. >> [laughter] >> All right. All right. Hi. >> Cuz you deserve it. I swear. I promise you. >> So, like I said, a little a little patience. I didn't know if you were going to go with us or if you're involved in it, but >> No, I'm not. >> It appears that you're going to once we get our prop or Walmart's property, you guys are going to get out of here. >> We have a car. Can you work with us, please? So, >> do you have a card? >> Card. >> Okay. Well, we're past that. Okay. >> So, what's going to happen next is go ahead and put your cigarette out. We're going to put you in handcuffs and we're going to escort you back there. Okay. >> Put your hands behind your back. Stand up for us. Do >> you have anything in your pockets? >> I probably do. >> Immediately after successfully taking the suspect into custody, officers began recovering the merchandise from the vehicle. The sheer amount of stolen goods raised an obvious question. How could she remain so calm and keep making excuses with that much merchandise sitting in the car? All >> this right here. All the clothes and stuff. >> Yeah. >> All this stuff right here. >> Okay. >> And right here, >> she said that to come bring her out here to this one because they don't have a max. They don't got a max on the return. >> Gotcha. >> Yeah. Mhm. >> What pill is this with a star print on it? What is that? Is that >> I don't know what that is. >> You don't know what this this pill is? >> I just put on my boyfriend. >> This is your boyfriend's? >> Yeah. >> That's it. Unfortunately, it's on here. So, guys, >> let's have a seat back here, please. >> By this point, the woman had broken down in tears inside the patrol car, but it did not appear to be out of remorse. Instead, it seemed like yet another attempt to gain sympathy and continue making excuses for her actions. >> Miss Leblanc, >> please ask the manager no more. >> You were under arrest for theft. >> But I had talked to the employee. I did. I talked to the employee. >> Mr. Blanc, I watched copious amounts of video. I know you've been lying to my person. >> Me and my boyfriend was right there together. I was looking for him. I even had them page him and everything, but he tell you the truth. And that's something you're going to have to raise with them in the process. They want to pursue charges. >> Why? No. Please, can I talk to the manager? Please, can I talk to the manager? >> Talk to the manager. This isn't a situation where you get to talk to the manager. You are under arrest for theft. >> Can I just please talk to the manager? Please, >> it's time to go. We're going to go to Winston County. >> Please talk to the manager. Please, sir. >> Let's get her out. >> Can I please talk to the manager? >> Miss Leon, >> you're going to jail for theft. Okay. >> What is the What is the state jail? What is it? >> State jail felony? >> No. You got two prior convictions for that. >> Step out, please. We're going to move you to a separate police car. Okay. >> So, what is the right >> how long you'll be there? You're going to see a judge in the morning right there. >> Did you see me with my boyfriend right there? >> Yeah, I understand. >> The woman was charged with theft with the offense elevated due to her prior theft convictions while the other individuals were provisionally considered uninvolved and were released without charges. Learn to take responsibility for your actions because excuses may delay the consequences, but they rarely prevent them. When clear evidence exists, honesty often does more good than endless attempts to avoid accountability. On September 6th, 2023, police received a report from Walmart about a woman who came shopping. Nothing seemed unusual except she had left two young family members outside in a hot car. When officers approached, the woman was completely uncooperative in providing information. Okay, you got your license on you and it's not this is not a matter of you're not going to give it to me. It's either you're going to give it to me or I'm going to put you in handcuffs.

We don't need to do this in front of the kids. At first, the woman believed her situation was not serious enough to require giving her information, but under pressure from the police, she eventually provided it in a roundabout way. Mhm. >> Just keep keep the window down right now. >> Okay. ID. That's all. I'm doing an investigation into a child abuse. I said that once already. That's not my second time saying it. >> But what's going to happen from this point? I really >> We're going to investigate right now. Okay. You're making this more difficult than it needs to be though. Like I'm not >> You left children in a car, >> but I just want to know where we're going with this. I think that's my right to know. >> We're investigating a child abuse. And if I start my investigate, I'm going to talk to you and question you and ask you things about this. >> And I start that by identifying who I'm speaking with.

That's the next step. You are going to give me your ID. >> What is the next step? >> The act of providing information was deliberately dragged out which was more than enough to reveal her uncooperative attitude and the police decided to act exactly as they had warned. >> No. No. No. N please. I'm not going. Please give me. Okay. Are you going to give me your ID? I'm >> All I'm asking is questions. I'm going to ask you again. Are you going to give me your ID? Yes or no? >> Yes or no? >> I'll give you the ID, but I just want to know what are the next steps. Like I I feel like you're not explaining to me what's going on. >> The next step is you're going to give me your ID. >> Can I step over here? >> The next step is you're going to give me your ID. >> Okay.

We're just right now we're doing an in a complete investigation. >> Going to leave the premises. >> We don't have an answer for that right now. >> We'll give you all the answers. >> Okay. >> After we complete our investigation. >> I will be able to sit with the cuffs on. I can't. >> You have to be in handcuffs. >> But I can't I have to bend my brace. >> It seemed the explanation was once again ineffective because even simply getting into the patrol car, she continued to cause difficulties for the officers. >> I have your I have your balance if you want to put your right leg into the car. >> Just a sec. I can't do that. Let me bend the brace. >> Okay. >> All right. >> And then I'm falling again. I I can't do this without using my hands. I'm telling you. >> Okay. >> So, all right. Go ahead. We'll go ahead and uh We'll just have her sit in that thing. That's fine. Okay. >> Stand up one more time. >> I can't get I can't get up. I can't get up. No, no, no. Please, please. >> Are you comfortable? >> I can't get up. Please, please take off the cuff. Please. >> Hey, do me a favor. >> I'm not going to leave. I'm not going to >> I'm not going anywhere. >> I'm not going to do anything. Please. >> Do not resist again. Okay. >> I won't. I won't. >> Here's what we're going to have you do. We're going to have you stand up right here in this doorway. Okay. Get comfortable. If you need to lean back, do so. Okay. >> That's fine. >> All right. Okay. Now, just get comfortable. Relax. Okay. Okay, I can just >> Your ID is in your purse, correct? Yes. >> Okay, we're going to take that now and identify you. Okay. Do you understand why you were just being detained? >> Yes or no? >> Yes. >> Thank you. Okay. You left two children in a car that was not running. One again was restrained in a child's seat. Doesn't matter for how long. It was long enough for somebody to call in. Okay. The children couldn't even open the car door on their own. Then when you come outside, you're insisting that you're going to leave and you're insisting that you're not going to give me your ID or identify yourself. >> In addition to the reasons why police were present, her earlier resistance had also caused her to face additional charges. >> I do need something. >> See that? >> You did that. I can charge you with battery on Leo right now. >> What? >> See that blood? >> That was an accident. >> No, it was not. No, it was not. I was telling you that you were squeezing my finger and that is from you. Okay. But I do you see my hand though? I couldn't walk though. I couldn't get up. >> That was when you were over here still standing and refused to let go of your purse. >> Okay. When a law enforcement officer gives you an instructions, you have to follow it. Especially when you're detained. All right. So, right now, this is one of my options. If I don't get cooperation, I'm just going to get you for battery on a law enforcement officer. >> Resisting without a battery on a law enforcement officer. Okay. So, please make sure that we get full cooperation. Understand? So, what time did you think do you think you got here? >> Oh, I see you're wearing a watch. Did you check the time or anything >> when you got here? >> What is it? >> What time do you think? >> Probably still two, right? >> And notably, after everything that had happened, the woman still showed no concern for her family. Let's see what her questions were actually focused on. >> Can I just ask one thing? >> Yeah. >> Are we going to leave from here? >> Not at this time though. >> At any point, >> maybe. I got my I got my boss on the way. Okay. >> Can someone let me know? >> Yeah, I'll let you know. Okay. I need you to face me and I need you to put your hands back behind your uh back. You're under arrest. Okay. And before we do this on you, do can you take this off for me? Cuz I don't want it to get broke. Okay. >> How about my purse and my wallet? >> Yeah, we're going to we're I'm going to get that. So, go ahead and face me. Put your hands behind your back. >> And how about my car? >> It's going to stay here. >> Yep. >> And my car keys. >> We're going to get everything. I need you to go ahead and put your hand behind Yep. There you go. Slide like that. Put your hands behind. >> And my crutch. I need my crooks to come with me. >> Where's your We'll get all of that. >> In the front passenger seat. >> Front passenger seat. Okay. >> All right. >> So, were any of the charges felonies? >> Yeah. >> Which one? >> The uh the two aggravated child abuse case ones. Yes. >> That's a felony. >> Yeah. U I'm already like I told you this year in the state of Florida we already had seven children die from this exact thing being locked in a car that's not airond conditioned. Okay, your children could have died. >> The woman was charged with two felony counts of aggravated child abuse, one for each child, along with resisting arrest without violence. Her actions showed that ignoring responsibility and refusing to cooperate only made the situation worse, turning a dangerous mistake into lifealtering consequences for both herself and her children. >> Ella, why am I being arrested? >> Why am I being arrested? >> M. But you're not hearing me. I literally I'm telling you right now. I'm telling you right now. Nobody. Nobody. >> On the 27th of June 2026, officers received a report that a group of suspects had fled a Rule King store after committing a theft. Police quickly stopped their vehicle as they attempted to drive to another store. Before that, officers had responded to Rule King to investigate what had happened based on the employees statements. >> I'll show you the product that they got. >> Okay. >> Do you have like a receipt or something that has everything that >> No, cuz they when they they went through the line and bring everything up and they're like the guy was like, I'm going to go ahead and push it on out. And the lady stayed back and then she couldn't pay for it. So, the transaction didn't go through. >> So, uh were you able to to like write out everything that was in the cart? Cuz you got the cart, right? >> Yeah, I've got the cart. >> So, are uh are you like as real King and press charges for it? >> Um I'm sure we will. >> Okay. >> Because >> Yeah, we just we just got to ask, you know. Um >> Yeah. So, [clears throat] if there is a way um this is what you gave Dispatch, Eric. They ran it and it didn't come back to anything. So, uh, if there if you do have that on video and you're able to see the license plate any better, uh, I don't know if maybe there's a digit missing or just what, but, uh, >> that's the oldest trick in the book. I can't believe Chris. >> All right. >> And you said it was a male. >> A male and a female. Yeah, the male pushed the card out while the female was standing back to pay and he was driving to >> Did you look through the video yet to see what time they actually came into the store? >> Not yet. He's just happened right when we called. >> Yep. >> Two ladies. That's they trained that like eight months ago. >> Same same two ladies. >> Are you familiar with >> Yep. They >> the organized retail theft [music] group consisting of two women and one man fled in a white car. Just 1 hour later, police caught them. They immediately denied everything. >> What do I do? Why am I arrested? >> Ella, why am I being arrested? >> Why am I being arrested? >> Stop talking. We'll talk about >> What did I do? >> We'll talk about it in just >> What did I do? >> You didn't even buy anything. >> Stop repeating things. >> Pulling your hands back. We'll talk about it in just a moment. >> You won't shut up. >> You're being ignorant to me. >> Just shut up. It's easy. >> You got anything on your person that's going to focus me? Anything like that? >> No narcotics, guns, knives, dead bodies. >> Hey, >> you want to talk to the bank? >> Okay. I'm sorry. Okay. Okay. I'm sorry. >> So, first off, do you have anything illegal on your >> No. >> No. >> No. >> Okay. Do you have pockets on this? >> No. >> No. Place the vehicle real quick. I'm just going to really don't have pockets, do you? >> You understand these right? Am I arrested right now? What did I do? What did I do? >> I have tamed. >> But okay, so >> Listen, I'm working. >> I'm I'm working with the [ __ ] police. Please don't give me if you want to walk into your vehicle. We're going to take her back here real quick so she can talk to >> No, him. >> Listen, >> we're at least away from our vehicle right now. >> He's got some questions. >> They separated each suspect for questioning. Instead of admitting she had stolen the merchandise and fled after employees recovered it, she told the story in a completely different way. >> Nobody stealing nothing from walking. I literally walked out there with him and waved the stuff and I gave it to him and I said, "Here, just keep it. We're going to go because the lady that was at the front desk pissed me off so bad being rude to me that I didn't want to stay in that store." Like, I get it. Judge me all you want for my history, but I'm literally trying to not be a bad person. >> Okay. >> I'm telling you the honesty god truth. Okay. Well, the problem is you left the final point of sale. >> I did not. I did not. And that lady knew that that that I need to go get my stuff from him and he was coming out with me. So, how am I in trouble for what the employee told me to do? >> Okay. Well, the employees have a different story. Okay. >> Can we please watch the camera? >> You on camera going outside with the >> I didn't have the merchandise with me. Number one, she walked out. Number two, I walked out to go. I'm telling you right now, can we please go there and talk to this lady? She That's what happened. That old that old guy, the cashier. That's what happened. I walked out, watched the cameras. I watched I walked and walked in. >> I mean, I walked and did. I swear to God. Watch the cameras. Talk to him. >> I swear to No, I swear to God that's watched. You didn't watch the cameras then because I walked and literally got the stuff and grabbed it and gave the cart back to the dude. If you watch the cameras, I gave him the cart and I said, "Have a nice day. I don't want it anymore." Cuz that lady was ignorant. >> Not how that works. >> What? She didn't know that it wasn't paid for yet. I didn't know she walked outside with the until I realized [clears throat] that and she said something. >> What's your first name? >> Christine Williams. I literally How am I under for something I didn't do? >> It's hard to believe anything coming from seasoned retail theft suspects. She didn't have any evidence to support her story and even began blaming the officers for not listening to her. >> For not feeling it. >> M. But you're not hearing me. I literally I'm telling you right now I'm telling you right now nobody nobody stole anything. You're not listening. >> They're not listening. >> You want to you want to talk to >> They're not listening to me. Listen them. They're not listening on the camera. Okay. I didn't know I didn't know that she walked out. >> I didn't know that she But I'm telling you the truth. Listen. I'm on my mind. I was going to jail for something I didn't do. Okay. So, so we walked I she walked out. I didn't know that she walked out the [ __ ] Okay. Until I was busy figuring out how to pay for it like I was supposed to. Okay. So, when she So, when she uh went outside, I told him I need to go get her to go get the stuff. So, we walked out to go get the stuff. I stopped her as she was putting the last thing in the car and I grabbed the cart and I gave it back to dude as the as the lady in the red red vest on. So, if you watch the camera, that's what happened. >> Sure. That's what happened. How are we arrested for stealing something we didn't take? >> Right. I understand. So, and that I understand. >> So, how am I arrested? >> Listen, I'll explain to you. Okay. So, the problem is is when you left the store without it being paid for. >> I didn't leave the store without being paid for. I did not walk the mirror since I saw the store. How am I being arrested for something I didn't do? No, she washed the card out. >> And then you know that it didn't go through and then >> I went and got her. >> Right. And then left in the car. >> I went and got I didn't leave in the car. I I gave him the merchandise back >> but I gave them the I gave him the car back. >> The point of sale with any merch. >> They're getting me arrested on a fluke. Are you kidding me? I have an ankle monitor. I didn't steal nothing. >> Please, please. I didn't steal anything. >> Question. [laughter] Question. What were you guys doing? >> We were just walking around looking for something. >> We didn't steal anything, though. Nobody stole anything. >> Taking a car. >> Meanwhile, another officer questioned the second woman. She gave a nearly identical story as if they had agreed on it beforehand. >> And can you explain to me what happened there? >> Okay. Same thing I just told him. I'm just waiting for the store with a friend. That was it. And she was getting a couple things and she was checking out. I thought it was already she had already had paid for the stuff that went through and I walked off cuz I said I was going to look at the run buckets right there in the front cuz I was I need one for my yard. And so I'm standing there and she comes up to me and she says, "Uh, you need to bring the cart back." Uh, the girl I'm with. And so I brought as I'm bringing the cart back, there was a guy little guy that [music] was walking towards me, too. And um some woman was screaming on the work and really I can't make out a whole lot crappy [ __ ] or something like that. I don't know exactly. But anyway, um the guy took the cart and I'm like, "What's going on?" And she's like, the girl almost is like, "I'll explain it later." And uh I'm like, "What? What is it? what's she screaming about? You know, and uh she's like, I don't know. She just flicked on me inside there. And I'm like, she's like, I'll talk to you. She just threw her hands up and said, I'll just talk about it later. And I'm like, okay, well, I need to come to Walmart, you know, to get some things. She said, she did. >> The man was questioned next. He appeared completely unaware of what had happened. And his version of events seemed to tell a different story. >> So, what what was the deal with Ro King? >> Ro King? I don't know. I They asked they asked if I take him to Ro King. They had to get some feed for a dog or something like that. And uh then uh they came out and they didn't have anything like a basket and they she just pushed the basket away. We had got into it with one of the ladies there or whatever. I was like, "Okay." And she said, "Well, can you go by Walmart?" She said, "We got to go by there and get a couple things from there." And I sat out here for like I don't know 30 45 minutes it seemed like waiting on them to come outside and they just come out and then this. >> Okay. >> I got you. Do you have any idea why they didn't have anything at Roking? I have no clue. I didn't even ask him. I was like, you guys were arguing with the lady. I mean, I figured it was just discrepancy or something. I don't know. >> Did you see the cart that they wheeled out and then gave back? >> I didn't I didn't touch each other on my phone. >> Okay. Well, basically, you're going to be leaving here alone today, but both those females are going to be going with us. >> Okay. >> And you're going to be leaving. >> What did they take? I mean, >> uh, right around $600 to $700 worth of items. >> Holy [ __ ] that were not paid for. So that that's why all this started. >> That's why we're here. >> So bear with me. Sit there a little bit longer. We'll be right back real quick. Thank you. >> He tried to get out the door with a $900 lawn mower. >> Really? >> Just now. Uh she said she didn't have no receipt. The girls was a girl in striping pants. >> Yeah. Would you be able to talk to asset protection? >> Yes. In the end, the two women were charged with organized retail theft while the man was released without charges. Shortcuts taken for quick gain often lead to lasting consequences. In the end, no coordinated story can outweigh the facts, [music] and every dishonest choice carries a price that is far greater than the reward. >> He's not paying anything. At best, he'll give her $50. She's like, "No, >> you're probably going to be pretty embarrassed tomorrow, man. Stop going to be so embarrassing." On the 6th of March 2026, police received a call from a strip club about a man who refused to pay after using their services. To better understand what happened, listen to the club manager's statement. >> Can somebody ask Nelson how much this guy owes? I need an exact total. 14 people. What? What? What? 650. >> Okay. >> All right. So, the gentleman came. Hello. How are you? >> It's like we all know each other here. Um >> I've never been here. Hi, welcome. You're going to probably come here a lot. They actually tell us not to call the police unless we absolutely have to. But tonight's one of those >> got to go. >> He owes 650. I had to call. I really I got to call. You owe $40. I'll give you a shot. Um, all right. So, the customer went to go do single. >> She more. That's almost a fountain. >> Yeah. >> $100. >> I know. Go back and do three more dances. >> Seriously. >> Hello. So, the guy went to go do single song dances with the girl. We have signs posted everywhere that say $40 per song. So, we can play dumb all we want to. They went up there just before 2:30, so on and so forth. $40 a song. He owes $650. Now, he's telling the he told the girl he wasn't going to come downstairs. He was refusing to leave the room. He's not paying anything. At best, he'll give her $50. She's like, "No." So, the VIP host goes up there. The security guy goes up there and they finally get him down and he's basically like, "You guys, I'm not paying you anything. I'll give her $50." He's standing at the VIP desk with the VIP host, the owner. >> So, how many songs total is it? >> Uh, let's see. So, he owes for a we do the two for 50 is one of the features. So, 600 divided by four. He owes for 15 songs plus a two for one. >> Okay. >> So, 17 songs essentially. >> Okay. >> So, um yeah, he basically just said like, "Call the cops. You're not going to do anything." Okay. And then he goes, "But don't trespass me. Off. You actually don't get to make that determination. >> What do you want to do with >> I want him to pay cuz that girl deserves her money." Um, and if he doesn't want to pay, if he doesn't want to pay, then he's he's getting trespassed and you guys >> he don't want to trespass nothing. >> Um, I mean, let's start with if he pays. >> So, the club still gave him a chance to pay, but when officers approached him, he appeared to deny everything. >> So, we can actually talk to you. It's a little loud. >> How's it going, man? What's your name? >> Yeah. Let's step outside. with everyone. >> So, what's your name, man? >> What? >> So, you need to pay. You need to pay. So, there's a tab when you request songs. You have to pay for that. Okay. It's part of their policy here. So, I guess you went ahead and you you paid some of the tab, but you didn't pay all of it. >> No, sir. >> So, >> no, I disagree. You you disagree. How so? So So what's the deal? >> Um you have your ID on you. >> Your ID. >> Okay. >> So what do you disagree with? >> Were you told something different? >> You got it. >> What were you told? >> From the man's behavior, he appeared to be far from normal. Yet, whenever officers spoke to him, he remained completely calm and managed to dodge their questions. Listen, you don't want to listen. Are you going to pay your tab then? Since you don't want to listen, are you going to pay the tab? >> I don't understand what you're doing. >> Because this is what's going to happen. If you don't pay your tab, you're going to go to jail. It's that simple. You're going to go you're going to get trespassed and you're going to jail. >> If you're saying no, no, no, no, you don't want to cooperate, then you're kind of forcing my hand here. >> Oh, I want to cooperate. >> Okay, man. I'm giving you opportunity. >> Okay. So tell me where the confusion's at. It's going to be my last time asking you. >> I believe you're hostile. >> Who's hostile? >> You're hostile. >> Can you answer my question? >> Can I talk to your boss? >> Okay. >> I have a question. >> Are you Are you refusing? >> I have a question to speak with. >> So you're not going to pay the tab. >> Correct me if I'm wrong. You're not going to pay the tab. >> I can pay the tab. >> You don't want to You are >> I want to speak to your supervisor. >> Are you going to pay the tab? >> I I feel that you're hostile towards me. >> Okay, sir. So this is where we're at. If you don't want to pay the tab, >> I want to pay the tab, but I feel you hostile person. >> Do Can you pay the tab? >> You have a card on file? >> You have a card? >> Oh, you're a hostile person. >> So, you're refusing. >> I want to be your boss. Who's >> you're going to go to jail now? >> $650. You're going to just go to jail. It's really just that simple. There's no if hands or no. >> Come on. Come on. Come on. >> You got him. >> Yeah. See you. >> He claimed that the officer he was speaking with was looking down on him. After being allowed to speak with another officer, he continued repeating the same circular story. >> So listen, there is this is a function extraordinary case. Listen right there. >> Makes no difference. Talk to him. >> This is Listen. >> Talk to him. >> All right. It's just that creepy, bro. You owe $650. >> Well, that's what she saying to you. >> You got cameras and everything. No, we're looking for that afterwards. So you get arrest here. >> So if you don't pay the $650, then you're going to go to jail. >> So I don't pay $650. >> But it's not. >> She's telling me, man, that's what it is. >> That is not. >> So you don't want to pay 650? >> I can pay 650.

The king said, >> we're done. >> Actually, you know what? You need just to walk here. We'll cuff you in the front. How about that, buddy? >> Yeah. >> Nice guy. >> I can talk to the I can talk to >> Yeah, we'll be nice. Okay, man. >> Okay. >> You want to pay the 650 or no? >> I can pay the 650. >> We're past that now, man. We're pass. We're done. >> We'll talk to the judge. >> I have no problem with talking fair enough. >> So, listen, man. This is what occurred here. >> That fraud.

You understand? >> You can't come back here. You're not welcome to come back to this establishment. Why? >> You owe $650. You just screwed that girl out of her money because you wanted to prove a point. >> You did. >> That's not true. >> I mean, you told me to call the police because you weren't willing to pay. >> The manager made their decision. He became embarrassed by what had happened. But when it came to his wrongdoing, he still showed no remorse. >> And you're you're probably gonna be pretty embarrassed tomorrow, man. I'm going to be so embarrassed >> cuz right now you've honestly you keep talking in circles. You're you're saying you're going to pay it. >> Then she goes ahead and she wants to bring out the tab. Then you don't want to pay it. >> You want to talk to your sergeant. You're making all these requests, but you haven't even answered my first question. We're still on the first question. >> So what's the first question? >> See, now you're not even listening, bro. >> There's that. >> All right, Bubba. We're going to get on our way. All right. >> Here. Watch your arms. All right, out we go. Ready? You need some light? >> Nope. >> Nope. >> Yes. >> There we go. >> There it is.

You told me, but you didn't do nothing.

No, >> I told you. >> So, here we are. >> So, just watch your stuff going in. Okay. You're lying. >> Okay. Okay. You're lying. And I tried to tell you. >> The man was ultimately charged with petite theft. Getting embarrassed after being caught does not erase the consequences. When given repeated chances to resolve a situation, refusing to take responsibility can quickly turn a simple problem into a criminal charge. >> Right now, her hands. >> Try by start by not stealing. And when I tell you to stop, stop. On the 2nd of November 2022, police were dispatched to Target after receiving a report of a theft.

I was going to piss myself >> cuz I needed the money. I go to treatment in literally 6 days. I go to 6 month treatment zone with my 2-year-old daughter. I work so hard to get it. >> Yeah. >> She tried to bring her family into the story behind her stolen merchandise to gain sympathy. And she later continued pleading without any shame. >> I know lots of things. I know lots of I know lots of everything. >> I I've heard that numerous times. >> I work with you. What's your middle name? >> I will forward the information to our drug guys, but today you're going to jail. >> Hey, I have to do I'll teach you to them today. >> I can't do that today. >> What do I have to do? >> I said I have to forward it to the right people. >> My daughter, she's she's pulmonary. I I've done everything. I got housing. I've gotten everything to get to do good. I literally >> No, I said I could forward the information to the other people, but I can't. >> What if they do it today? >> I can't I can't do anything today. >> They're picking me up today. >> You're You're going to jail today. >> I can't do anything about that. >> Try by start by not stealing. And when I tell you to stop, >> stop. >> I'm just scared cuz my daughter, my daughter, man, I'm all she has. I got >> She's got nobody, man. >> I worked so hard to get you day treatment. I >> I What I'll do is I'll help you the best I can, but I can't do anything today. Today, you go to jail. >> Additionally, she admitted to swallowing a large number of pills to get rid of them. Officers tried to give her one chance to be honest. Would she take it? >> Okay, I'm going to give you one opportunity to become 100% honest with me about the blue pills. >> Okay. Serious? >> No. Uh cuz this is what's going to happen. You lying to me. We're going to take you to the hospital. We'll get it checked. If there if you're 100% lying to me, everything will get checked out. And if you're found lying to me, it'll be a second charge of obstruction. >> I know. >> Okay. >> I know. >> You're not allowed to drive. I don't know where you left. You threw your keys at. >> I know. >> Okay. So, there's a good chance after I convince my lieutenant that I'll take you to the hospital and then I'll take you to jail still. >> Very, very good chance. >> I know. >> Okay. >> I'm sorry. >> There. >> I was scared. >> There there you're past the point of sorry. I've already said that. >> I was scared. >> Okay. So, I am going to ask you this very very straightforward, very clear. When was the last time you used blues? >> I just did it with my mouth. >> Just did it with your mouth just now. No, I'm But I >> when >> literally that's the reason why I was able to go into the store when I knew you were coming to get me in the in the car. >> How many? Cuz if you tell me like some absurd rule >> No. >> Cuz I've had people tell, "Oh, I swallowed 25 of them." Like you would be dead. >> No, I swallowed 13. >> Oh, 13. Oh, so you'd still be dead. >> She was charged with shoplifting, resisting arrest, and obstruction. Her repeated attempts to gain sympathy could not change the consequences of her own actions. Once she chose to run and resist, simply pleading afterward was no longer enough to undo the situation. >> But let me make a phone call real quick. >> Okay. >> So, you said he admitted taking 800 today. >> Today? And then he admitted that he had 20 grand in his home. >> Like all from here? >> Yeah. All from here. >> On the 29th of January 2025, officers received a report that a store employee had been caught stealing $800 in cash. They quickly arrived at the store only to realize that the $800 was far from the final amount. >> Hi. >> Hello. >> Taking the call >> in regards to the I guess grand theft. >> We can talk to my office and go over. >> Is he here? >> Yeah, we just did an interview with him. He had to hit everything. >> Okay. >> This morning he took $800 in cash to his wallet. We got to clean footage. Um we got the money back. sitting on the office desk. Um, so kind of just charge him for the theft today. And then he didn't he had 20 grand sitting in a safe home. So we were going to try to figure out like best process to like get that stuff recovered. So I can walk you in there. >> But I mean, he's here now, right? Let me um before I speak with him, let me see. Okay. Let me make a phone call real quick. >> Okay. >> So you said he made a mistake in 800 today. >> Today. And then he admitted that he had 20 grand in his sleep at home. >> Like all from here? >> Yeah. All from here. >> Wow. >> So, okay. Yeah. The call said 2,000 20,000. Either way, I still grant that. But, um, >> on my actual report, I just put it for the 800 cuz I just spoke for your covered today, but I included in my report that he admitted having 20 grand at home. >> This amount proved that the suspect had carried out the theft multiple times, making the situation far more serious and forcing the officer to quickly report it to his supervisor. Give me a second. >> Hey, Jingja. Uh, so I'm on this uh grand theft call the uh Target and they have the guy here who's an employee. He has admitted for stealing like over 100,000 saying he's got about 20,000 in his safe I guess like at his house but they caught him with 800 today. So they're wanting to I guess press >> All right. County 2210. We're only at 44 please. s 1012 with phoning a suspect. [laughter] >> Let me go. Where's he at? You guys going? >> So, from what my boss said, we don't have the video of any other incidents really cuz he was taken into area. But if he was willing to admit it to you for the 20 grand, we'd be willing to press charges for it. >> Okay. So, if he's saying it's recoverable, I guess the 20 grand still can walk by. Yeah, let's I got um I I have another unit coming so somebody can direct them back as well. >> Since the male suspect had admitted to everything, his arrest was carried out quickly. Officers then escorted him to the police vehicle to complete the necessary procedures before taking him to the station. Appreciate you being cooperative. Step down the curb right here. You spread your legs real good for me. Nice and wide. And just lean forward. Once again, you got nothing on me that's going to hurt me or stick me, right? >> No guns, knives, or anything like that? >> Wallet, phone, and keys. >> Okay. Got your phone. >> Look at me a little bit. Look at me. Open your mouth. Keep this way a little bit. You look at the car. >> Oh, you can see. >> Thank you. >> You got CO or anything or >> No, I worried for the No. Get this guy. Turn around. Have a seat. Watch your head for me. Got him in custody in the back. He's He's fine. He's detained. I I searched him. Probably get one of you guys to search him for me again. So, he is admitting to um stealing like $100,000 in cash from here. >> 100,000? >> Like tens of thousands. He said around 100,000. He says he has 20,000 of it in a safe house. They want to press charges for the 20 for the 20,000. They have them on video selling 800 today, but I said I'm I need to get them started on the uh sworn statements and everything. I just need somebody to say 1012. >> Say 1012 out here. >> All right. >> The amount had gone from $800 to $20,000 and now to $100,000. Clearly, the situation was becoming more serious, prompting the officer to make another call to confirm the next steps. >> Hey bud. Um, so I'm at a call. I'm at this grand theft at the uh Target and uh have the um have the suspect 10:15. He's secured in my vehicle. >> Step out while you're talking so he doesn't hear your compensation. >> Yeah. Um and >> we'll watch him. You talk to the audience. >> I got you. And he's admitted to stealing. I mean, he told this to the managers there that he stole over $100,000. He has 20,000 of it in cash at his house in a safe. They have him on film uh stealing 800 today. Um >> so why do you have him secure? >> Uh well because I mean they they had him in custody. He admitted it to me so I secured it. Yeah. >> Yeah. Was he was he cooperative with you or >> Yeah, he's extremely cooperative. He's got you know pretty much diaries and stuff. So >> just for just for training purposes we don't secure especially with that much money. If he's cooperative, we'll secure him. So now we got to call detectives and he's secure now. So what you're going to do is you're going to rear around and he's probably going to lower up and now he's not going to talk to the detective anymore. >> Oh, okay. Yeah, I was just calling you to get permission to call the detectives. But I see what you're saying here. >> Right. >> Okay. All right. Appreciate it. >> Since the remaining money was confirmed to be in a safe at his home, officers then confirmed the location of the keys so they could proceed with recovering it. Do >> you desire to consult an attorney first or have one during this visit? because I've never done this before. Yes. >> Okay. Um, so I'm going to stop uh asking you any questions. All right. >> Uh, do you have your keys on you? >> They they took them. >> They took them. Yeah. Okay. >> Um, I'm not going to ask you any questions obviously about the case. Uh, because you're invoking your right to uh counsel. I am going to inform you that we are going to do a search warrant on your apartment. I don't necessarily want to have to kick your door in. Uh, can I uh take your keys and unlock your your house? >> Go. >> Okay. >> Um, can't really ask you anything about the safety then, I guess. >> No, but you can you can say we're going to go into the safe. >> We are going to go into the safe. >> Is there an easier way to get into the safe other than breaking it? >> Break. We're going to take it and break it. >> Same thing with your door. >> Are they the keys on the with the rest of them? >> Okay. >> Like on the key set? >> Yeah. >> Okay. That's just up here, you think? Are they they wherever? >> Yeah, they put me off. >> Okay. >> Is it just a unlock? There's no code or anything like that. >> There's um there's a to get to the keyhole, you have to take the panel off. There's a front panel next to the keypad and then the keyhole is exposed and I think the key is all written. >> Okay. All right. Do you live by yourself? Does anybody in the house? >> Not by myself. >> Okay. All right. Anything any anybody that we should expect in the house at all? >> Like anyone we should expect at the house at all at this time. Okay. All right. Any pets? Cats, dogs, anything? >> No pets. >> Okay. >> In the end, Christopher Pleasants was charged with grand theft and scheming to defraud. This case shows how a seemingly minor theft can uncover a much larger pattern of criminal activity. Once the truth comes to light, repeated dishonesty can quickly turn a simple incident into serious [music] legal consequences. >> Looks like she took the bag. She wanted the bag. Yeah, right now stuff looks like it's all hers. >> If you won't let me drive you in this car, the only option is in the jail van. On the 23rd of February, 2024, officers were dispatched to Walmart after receiving a report about a woman who was shoplifting for the second time. When officers approached her, she immediately resisted, causing the situation to escalate. >> Hey ma'am, can you stop right there for me? >> I'm sorry, Sergeant. Yes. >> All right. >> Can you just go ahead turn around for me? >> In trouble? >> Yeah, you're in trouble. Turn around. Put your hands on your back. >> We'll talk about Stop. Stop. Stop. >> Stop. Get on the ground. GET ON THE GET ON THE GROUND. >> YES, SIR. YES, SIR. YES. >> PUT YOUR HANDS BEHIND YOUR BACK NOW. >> YES, SIR. YES, SIR. YES, SIR. YES, SIR. Don't hurt me. Please, I'm very >> for one detained. Don't move. Don't move. >> Okay. Please don't >> roll over onto the side towards me. >> Sit up on your butt. >> Yes, sir. Don't hurt me. >> Stand up. >> Yes, sir. You'll have to help me up. >> I am helping you up. >> Don't help me. >> I'm not. >> We're going to walk. Can you push that for me? >> Yes. I'm not left the store with anything. I have my name. >> Concealing items within a store is stealing. >> No, it's not. >> Yes, it is. I don't know if I'm going to buy them. I have them in bags and I'm not at the store, sir. You can wear stuff out of the store if you want to. >> Concealing items within a store is stealing. >> Am I allowed to take them in my >> You've already stolen it. >> I haven't stolen anything. I'm not left, though. I understand that. I have money. I'm not stealing anything. >> Right now, you're under arrest for resisting and ling. >> I didn't mean to resist you. I was just I was scared of you. >> When you walk away from me, it's actively resisting. Okay. >> I did not know that. Please don't do that to me. I did not mean to resist you at all. No, you're you were resisting. You're going to get charged for it. >> She insisted that what she did was not theft, denying everything from stealing to resisting arrest. But the loss prevention team clearly saw things differently. >> Still has a bag on it. >> Yep. >> And fresh spray paint all over it. >> She spray painted it in the store. >> Yes. Inside the aisle and then put That's why I grabbed these so I knew which one she did. So I was right behind her when she was doing it. >> Did the cameras pick any of that up? >> Unfortunately, that aisle. now. >> Okay. >> Unfortunately, but I have her grabbing the backpack and then or the purse thing and the clothing and going from apparel into the back bathroom. >> Can you and did she have other items on her hand when she went back there? >> Uh, it was some clothing. It was like a pink shirt. Uh, I want to say it was a black shirt or something like that. >> Okay. Did she throw this down when you guys started following her? >> No, she threw it into the uh car. >> Oh, this is the one she ditched. >> Yeah, that's the one she ditched in the back bathroom. >> In the bathroom. Okay. >> Yeah. Holy [ __ ] There's a lot more in there than I thought. That might be some of her own stuff, though. >> Did you check the bathroom for tags already? >> Let me call it. >> Returning to the woman, she still seemed unaware of how her actions had been characterized in the charges. She continued trying to prove that she was innocent. >> I have tons of money on cash. I'd like to purchase a seat. >> She said she wants to purchase the items. >> My name, >> just so you know, >> you're under arrest for resisting already. Anyway, >> start me out. I get >> Okay. Well, I'm not shutting the door on you yet. >> Okay. Just slide slide in. >> I have to go to the hospital. >> You get out here for freak out. >> That one I believe is going to be hers because it's got like makeup and crap on it. >> Looks kind of old. This stuff This stuff's got tags. T75 Goodwill. >> Goodwill. >> Goodwill. Okay. So, >> yeah. >> So, there was a pink shirt she had. I know. I saw the pink shirt >> and she had something else in her arms when she went in the >> bathroom. Well, this one's got a ripped tag on it. >> Okay. So, the overnight team lead is looking Oh, it doesn't have the actual tag. It just has the little medium. >> It might be Goodwill, too, though. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. I'm going to say this one's probably Goodwill cuz typically ours will have like a UPC on it. >> This looks like This stuff's Looks like she took the bag. She's wanted the bag. >> Yeah. >> Right now, this stuff looks like it's all hers. Yep. >> There it is. >> There you go. There's the pink shirt. >> There it is. That's what I saw. >> And there's the belt. >> Yep. That's going to be our >> Yep. >> This >> I think this is a set. >> These look like her shoes. >> Yep. I never noticed if she had new shoes on. >> I have no idea this yours. >> I can scan it and see. >> I'm not seeing a barcode label on it. >> Oh, there's no barcode. No, it's not ours. Several items were not from Walmart and may have been stolen elsewhere. But mixing them all together clearly showed she had no intention of shopping, making it difficult for the officer to determine which products were from Walmart. [snorts] >> That's not going to be ours. I don't think that's ours. >> I don't think that's ours. >> It's a little torn up. >> Yeah, that looks would be yours. >> And this stuff. >> Okay. So, that's what she was grabbing cuz I was backtracking her while she was in the back bathroom. So, I was like, "Okay, she went in there and I see the tags on everything." So, I was backtracking her still. Well, she's putting it in Walmart bags. We'll go ahead and list the food items as she was intending to steal them. >> Okay. >> That's the bag she took into the bathroom right there. She had >> It's just got the stuffing and the the hangers from >> Perfect. I'm going to get a picture of that for my case. So, that just shows she was doing what she was doing. >> I'll just need pictures of the purse. And then which she only used? One of the spray paint cans. >> Both of them. >> She used both of them. >> Yeah. It's hard to tell. >> Looks like Yeah, she went over with the dark blue and then light blue over there. >> All right. So, we'll list this both those have been stolen, too. And then >> she in technicality, it was a consumption in a way. >> Pride view of your interest in that property. >> Is this yours? >> While the store worked to identify the products and their [music] prices, the woman outside put on another act, now portraying herself as the victim. >> She said the back one. >> Open wide. Is there one bad? >> You said it was the back one. That was the Was that what did you say it was? >> The rotten one. >> The rotten one or the back? >> Okay. Is it back? >> No, I can't tell. I can't tell. >> Oh, God. >> Hey, Tammy. >> Yes. >> I need you to listen up. Okay. >> Yes. >> You have the right to remain silent for to hire a lawyer. Won't be appointed Rosini for any questioning if you wish. You decide any time to exercise these rights and answer any questions or make any statements. Do you understand she's right to explain to you? >> No, sir. I did not know that you were an officer. I didn't go outside. All I see was your face. You didn't know I was an officer? >> No. And then you grabbed at me. I moved and then when I was seen that you were a cop and you grabbed me, I stopped and just submitted to you. >> You didn't stop. You pulled away from me. >> I didn't know you were a cop until I submitted to you. I'm going to puke and [ __ ] Why' you th so bad? >> You sell those? >> No. Okay. Uh, I need to get her bag out of your office. Yes. >> Oh, she trespassed, too. I would love it if she were trespassed, too. >> She's not trespassed, but that's her. It's her second event. >> She's stolen here before. Not our store, but uh Seventh Street. >> Okay. Do you have like a case number associated with that picture from the police department? >> Uh that I don't know cuz this is from two years ago. >> Was she stealing there? >> Yeah, they got $49 back and didn't recover $21. >> So this was not her first offense. Yet she showed no shame as she tried to portray herself as the victim to the officer, even after admitting her own criminal history. >> You're saying you've never been in jail before? >> I've been in jail. >> What did you go to jail for? Simple assault. >> We're going to take the handcuffs off you and put around front. Okay. Turn around. Turn. Turn in the car so I can take the handcuffs off you. If you don't work with me, I can't help you. >> My leg is numb. >> You walked out here just fine. Tammy, >> my leg is numb. >> Come on. Step out here for us. >> Can you help me? I don't want to fall. My leg is >> be happy to help you. There you go. Step out here. Turn. Step out here. I need you to turn. >> What are you What? We're taking them off of you. >> I hope you're still cutting me now. >> Now turn around. >> My legs asleep. >> Okay. Well, step back and then you can sit down in the car. >> My legs. >> Stop it, Tammy. >> You know you're still going to go to jail, right? >> Here. I don't like the embarrassment ever. I just can't do it. >> Sit down. Hang. Put your hands in front. >> I can't breathe. >> Put your hands in front of you. >> Oh, please don't stress me out. I'm stroke out on you. Please don't kill me on my way through the already. I watch that wrist. It hurts me so bad. >> Those aren't tight. >> It's still sharp. I got so scared. All right. >> Don't be up. Don't be so rough. >> I'm not trying to be rough with you. Okay. >> My ass. You're very >> I did not mean to like that. >> Put your foot up there. Push up. >> I'm a woman. >> Shut that door. >> I have to shut the door. I can't drive you down there with the door open. And the only other option is I call the jail van out here and they put you in a restraint wrap. >> You know what the wrap is? >> I don't want to torture you. It's not torture. It's it's a lawful way of restraint. So if you if you won't let me drive you in this car, the only option is in the jail van [laughter] >> in a restraint chair or a restraint wrap. And I don't want to do that to you. Okay. >> Don't be like >> Okay. In the end, Tammy was charged with misdemeanor stealing and resisting arrest. She pleaded guilty to both charges, served 5 days in jail, and was sentenced to two years of probation. Trying to portray herself as the victim did not change the outcome. Her own actions, the recovered merchandise, and her resistance ultimately led to convictions she could not talk her way out of. >> Don't have nothing out of there. Whatever my boyfriend just had, this right here, this is the only thing that beats. >> So, you just going to bust my lip? So, you going to bust MY LIP? SO, YOU BUSTING MY LIP. GO. YOU BUSTING MY LIPS. YOU BUSTING MY LIPS. >> On the 28th of March 2021, police received a call from a CVS store reporting a disturbance involving an intoxicated couple who had been yelling outside the business. But when officers arrived and made contact with them, they quickly discovered there was far more going on. >> Hey guys, what's going on? >> Man, baby, I don't got none of his [ __ ] He said, baby, say [ __ ] to me. >> What's going on? >> Nothing. I just came here to buy my stuff and I asked her what stuff was and she told me she didn't know. So, I was going to get back in the car. Okay. Well, >> I don't know, babe. You um What happened? >> Are you guys okay to drive? >> Oh, I'm I was drunk. I'm drunk. But I'm I'm drunk enough to drive, though. >> No. >> Well, I got my cousin coming to pick me up, though. I can wait for my cousin to come pick me up. >> Yeah, that's fine. But you can't drive. >> I can wait for my cousin come pick me up then. Baby, you can drive police. That's why I be trying to tell people to call. >> Sir, have you been drinking, too? >> Can you drive? Yeah. >> The anti- theft alarm sounded, signaling that the woman had taken merchandise without paying for it. She didn't hesitate to admit it moments later, acting as though there was nothing wrong. >> I don't have nothing out of there. Whatever my boyfriend is having, this right here, this is the only thing that beat. She can have this back. Yeah, you can have this, ma'am. >> All right. Here. Here. Don't Don't me. Okay. But this is my bag, sir. This is my bag. Listen. This is my bag. I gave her this. >> 16. >> Excuse me, sir. I gave her this. Wait, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Sir, >> this is the only thing I gave her that my bag is not is not hers. >> Okay, I'm just going to figure that out. >> Okay, but going to secure you until that happen. >> But why are you trying to handcuff me? >> You are not under arrest. >> Okay, but what are you handcuffing me for? I I don't steal. I'm not stealing it. >> Put your hands behind your back. >> Well, what are you handcuffing me for? I don't I don't I'm not stealing. I'm giving her the nails back. >> Stop fighting. >> I'm giving her the nails back. HEY, BABY. STOP BEING SO HOSTILE with me. >> Okay. Well, stop fighting and put your hands. >> I'm a stealing.

They're going to nail. I had them up under my arms. You seen I didn't want them. >> Drop this stuff. Okay. >> Okay. Get it. >> OKAY. STOP GRABBING MY ARMS LIKE THAT. WHAT YOU GRABBING my hands for? >> Because you're tensing up. >> I'M NOT TENSING UP. DON'T GRAB my hand. >> Everything she did only reinforced how unstable and erratic she appeared. But the situation was far from over. And even after she was placed in the patrol car, the chaos showed no signs of slowing down. >> Why do I have to sit in the car? I don't have to sit in no car. >> Okay, I can stand by the car. I don't have to sit in no car. >> Sit in the car. >> I don't have to sit >> in the car. >> So you just going to bust my lip? So you going to bust MY LIP? SO YOU BUSTING my lip, THOUGH. YOU BUSTING MY LIP. YOU BUSTING MY LIP IN THE CAR. >> AND YOU BUSTING MY LIP. I ain't do to you. >> All right. Can I talk to you? Can I talk to you for me? >> 17. You can slow down. I got one in the car. >> All right. >> Yes, sir. >> Thank you for being calm. >> Yes, sir. >> What's going on? >> Listen, you came in the store. Look for some nails. >> 10. >> She had nails up on her arm. She must forgot cuz she drunk. >> Okay. >> So, I'm saying she hand you. >> Okay. >> Do you have any of their merchandise? >> No, I don't. >> Okay. I got one female in the car screaming. Okay. D mess. All right. Is this your car? >> Yes, ma'am. >> That's her car. >> Do you have a valid license? >> Yes, I do. >> Are you able to drive? >> Yes, I am. >> All right. Have you been drinking, too? >> Okay. I'm going to have you hang out here until I figure out what else is going on. Okay. >> The man seemed eager to stay out of trouble, but he knew what the woman had done and did nothing to stop her. He even hid the bag of stolen merchandise, forcing officers to find it themselves. >> Why'd you go and put her bag in the car? As >> Okay. Step back. Step back. I appreciate >> it. That's her bag. >> Which one? There. That right there. Yep. You step over there for me. Wait for my gun. >> All right, ma'am. Can we go through this real quick and see what's yours and what's >> Just tell me what's yours. All this is yours. >> I'm not I don't want to tell. >> This yours? >> Yeah. >> This is yours? >> Yes.

So, yeah, I guess it is. >> Cheer gloves. >> Could you go through the rest of that? >> Hey, so I need to get a little bit of information from you to figure out what's going on.

What's your last name? >> Am I going to jail? >> The woman sounded much calmer by this point, but she still refused to acknowledge her wrongdoing. shamelessly portraying herself as the victim instead. >> Then you shouldn't have pulled away from me. You shouldn't have fought me. >> You have to be part of the story. They think I mean anyone. I didn't promise. I just can't. I got a fire on a daughter at home. I got fire daughter at home right now. She ain't going to go without me. I need my baby. I really need my daughter. Bro, >> you should make better choices then. >> Okay. I said, "Oh my god, I didn't mean to resist. I promise." I ain't know that I'm resisting. I promise. You listen to me. I know. >> Hello. >> What? You listen to me? >> I've already been listening. You're going to jail. >> But what? >> Resisting with violence. >> Okay. I didn't mean that. Can you please have the man I was with and I resist violence, bro? >> It's not up to him.

We already have her in custody. They just got her. >> Okay. >> That's why I got out with her. But >> I'm going to continue reading this and ask you two questions and at the end I need an answer. Okay. >> That's not from Burlington. >> So that's why I got out with her. But of course she >> Yeah, Burlington don't have any of this. That's not mine. >> Yeah, it's probably from Burlington.

Like >> on the 7th of August 2022, officers stopped a vehicle suspected of being connected to a [music] theft that had occurred at Walmart. The suspect was believed to be the woman in the white shirt sitting in the passenger seat. Here's what happened after the officer approached. >> They called us and said you were shoplifting. How? We don't got anything. >> Listen, stop saying how. I'm telling you what we're here for. >> I don't care though. We didn't steal. >> I didn't. >> So So how come, >> bro? None of us stole anything. But we didn't though. We were still in the store shopping. >> Well, guess what? >> We're 75 on three. >> All right. Damn. >> All that's paid for is receipts in the bag. >> Okay. You don't got to look at us like we stealing, bro. That's creep. Don't do that, bro. It's nothing stolen, though. >> It's creep. We just went to a store. Period. We just went to a store.

I couldn't even get >> Listen to me. I can't explain stuff to you if you keep talking. >> All right. Well, come on. >> All right. I'm not saying you stole anything right now. >> Okay. Thank you. >> What I'm telling you is >> we got 620 in groceries like in food stamps and I'm still home. I mean paying for stuff. So he they know >> period. >> Her constant interruptions and stammering only revealed how panicked she was making the situation escalate further. At that point the officers tried to calm the situation down. >> So they called us because they said that she was stealing. Okay, >> I was >> Stop. Just stop. This is a time for listening. Okay. >> We weren't there. >> So, right now, we're investigating it. That gives us probable cause to detain everyone involved. >> Yes, that includes you. Okay. Um, more importantly, your child, there's no car seat for him in this car. You have open bottles of alcohol in this car. So, that's on you right now. Doesn't matter if it's old or not.

So, that's a whole different situation on yourself. So, it would be best in your interest to just calm down. Let us conduct our investigation. >> My kids, man. >> Yeah. Well, you shouldn't be conducting this activity with your kids. >> I wasn't in I don't I was on >> You're not driving with a kid without a without a car seat without >> You weren't driving with a kid with open bottles of alcohol in your car.

Operate a motor vehicle >> with alcohol in it and no child seat. >> That's what we're talking about. >> So, I got to go to jail for >> Let us in do one investigation at a time. >> Returning to the suspect, she continued to deny the theft, but her frightened look only made the officers question the credibility of her story. >> We both came. So, she was right there next to me. She even walked away. She told me, "Make sure you scan. I already know. >> We both scanning anything." Like, I don't mind scanning stuff. It's free. It's $620. We both scaled away before. >> I don't mind. >> Just Just listen to me. Okay. >> I don't know what's going to happen. We're here. Okay. At best. Listen. You're not listening to me. >> I'm already a communicator. I don't want to happen to me if I'm a baby. >> Listen, we will make this as painless as possible with you. Okay. At best, you got a nice complaint against Walmart. Okay, but let us do our job. >> Okay, that's fine. >> So, this officer is going to ask you some questions. >> Okay. And I already said it. >> All right. But he's going to read you something. >> He already >> Oh, you asked you. >> No, I was talking about her. >> She's been already said it straight up. Like, it was all food stamps. It's all food stamps. I didn't steal anything. >> I didn't put nothing in my purse. It It was good. Like it's all food stamps like drinking a little bit, but we was both scraping. >> I'm just letting you know when they can get that video to process with the um >> As time went on, the pressure on the woman became heavier. And under that pressure, she began to admit to her actions. >> You know, it's 2022, correct? Walmart has the best camera system. >> I already know. >> Okay. >> Let me know. Listen, when I ask questions, >> all right, >> I want you to be honest with me. >> You understand? >> Okay. >> I may ask you questions that seem blatantly I know the answer. And it is because I know the answer, but it's my way of judging if you're going to be honest with me or not. >> Okay. >> Okay. >> But we didn't honestly still. I promise. Like maybe I was moving too fast. Like but a lot of stuff a lot of stuff was scanned. Like maybe one or two things wasn't paid for. I promise. Like I was drinking so if anything it wasn't scammed. But I promise like a lot of stuff was paid for. I got food stamps. I don't got no reason to steal food and I just don't want my baby to see me get arrested. Like yeah I was drinking but I promise I wouldn't try to steal poo. Like I got no reason to steal proof. Get a citation. >> Have a nice day. >> Like I got no reason to steal. I just don't >> have a good day. >> I just don't got no reason to steal food, >> you know? I just got enough for stuff going on. I've been doing so good, but I just don't got no food. Like if I got to go, I'mma go. >> Okay. >> Just cuz like I'mma go cuz I ain't got no choice. But >> So you were scanning the items. Are you Are you claiming Are you claiming you were just drunk and that's why you didn't scan all the items? >> No, I said I was drunk. What did you honestly? But we was both trying to check. It's most of I got 600. Listen, >> I I get it. >> We was together. Like I thought I most I think I did. They shouldn't be, but one or two things. Okay, I'm sorry. >> She claimed it was only an accident because she was not in the right state of mind, but according to the video the officers had reviewed, there was no such story. >> But like what we stand for? So the video shows >> Yes. The video shows me telling her why you leaving. Like that's >> you ringing everything up. >> Okay. >> And then you running out the door leaving all your stuff. You got $214 in groceries. >> I didn't just leave. I was even talking to the people when we walked over. >> Do you have all your groceries in your car? >> No, but that's because she left. But I was even telling her, "Listen, if you look on the arguing, she was arguing with me." >> It was two people arguing with me. So you just Here's my thing. If I'm going Listen, >> if I'm going >> Look, I told her, >> lovey, this is your last chance to stop interrupting me. >> All right, I'm sorry. >> Okay, my patience is wearing very thin with you. >> I'll take it. >> No, >> I'll take the blame. >> I know you will. >> But what I'm saying is if I go grocery shopping and I didn't steal, I'm not leaving $214. >> But that's what I was telling the people. >> I didn't finish. Y'all not letting me say it, but I told them it's not the time to say anything. I'll say it. >> Let him finish. And then >> it's not the time to say it. >> I told him straight up. >> What are y'all saying? I told them that >> it's okay. >> I told them straight up. >> Yeah. >> With my baby crying, running out the door with her. They kept trying to leave me. I wasn't trying to leave out the store. Inside the store, the surveillance footage was reviewed further, revealing the full extent of the woman's actions that she had previously denied. >> She paid for two of the same pork chops. None of them were the same price, and she scanned the same one multiple times. They were all different weights. Um, and she bag she only scanned it twice even >> and put four of them in the bag. here. She has three of those in her hand. Scans twice and all three. >> You can go ahead and give >> Can you go back? I thought I only saw two. >> Sorry. >> Can you go back to that? I thought I only saw two. One on each hand. >> There's one underneath. >> Okay. Okay. So, there's two in that and one in better perform. Um, the next thing she scans is a t-bone steak and she scans the same cheap one three times and puts two more expensive ones in the bag with The woman was arrested shortly afterward and was charged with retail petty theft. Honesty would have been the better choice as denying the theft only became harder once the surveillance footage exposed what really happened. Her attempt to explain it away ultimately left her facing the consequences of her actions. Next, this woman caused chaos at Walmart by letting her dog run wild. >> You're going to my dog >> if it comes at me and bites you. >> You're going to kill my dog. You, you and you, and you. Racist cop. On the 9th of April, 2025, at around 9:22 p.m., police were dispatched to Walmart after receiving a report of a customer who had brought an aggressive pitbull into the store. When they approached the woman, she completely avoided the officer's questions and showed no intention of cooperating. >> Hey, excuse. >> What's going on today? >> Somebody called and said, "Your dog's biting people." >> He is. >> Okay. Where's the people that got bit? 312 unit check. >> You have no idea where they went. >> You can't talk or nothing. What's wrong with you? >> Okay. Are you bit? >> I don't know. >> You want to see? >> Can you just tell me if you're bit? You can't You can't tell me. >> Hey, stop. >> Come here. You're not going anywhere. You're going to stay here. >> I want to follow. >> Okay, that's fine. >> I want to file a report. >> Okay. Can you just stop? >> Okay. >> Okay. >> Hey, >> who did your dog bite? Um, somebody >> hold the dog with your both hands on the leash, please. What? >> Why? >> Cuz I said so. >> It was clear that the woman had no control over her dog and showed no concern about whether it had bitten anyone. At that point, the officer gave her a warning, but all he got in return was an even more hostile reaction from the woman. >> If your dog comes at me and tries to bite me, I'm going >> You want You're going to kill my dog? If it comes at me and bites me. >> You were gonna kill my dog. >> Do I speak another language that you don't understand? >> So, you said you were going to my dog. >> Yes. If your dog bites me, I will. >> Okay. >> All right. >> Let's grow up a little bit. Let's act like adults. Okay. >> You want to hold on to your dog? >> I got it. >> Okay. I don't think you want to play these games. Okay. >> I got my dog. >> Good. >> What's going on here? Why am I at Walmart today? Go ahead. I need another unit here. This uh dog owner is not going to be cooperative. >> The woman's behavior escalated the situation to the point that four additional police units and animal services were dispatched to the scene. It was also confirmed that there was more than one victim as multiple people had been bitten by her dog. >> Okay, I'll be with you in a little bit. Okay. >> All I said is you better have >> Who got bit? Who got bit? Two people already. Another gentleman in the store. >> Where'd you get bit, sir? >> I got the video. >> I got bit unless >> Okay. Do you want an ambulance? Do you want an ambulance, sir? >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> I want to file a report, too. >> Okay. You can do that with animal services. Okay. >> You can't file a report. >> We don't do that. That's animal services. That'll handle that. >> I was attacked. >> What's that? >> I was attacked. >> Send a video to me. >> Based on the woman's behavior, the officers began to question her mental state. She showed no concern for what had happened and repeatedly caused disruptions even while the victims were trying to explain what had taken place. >> WHAT YOUR SHIRT SAY? I GOT YOUR BACK. >> OKAY, >> DUMBASS. >> OKAY, we'll have to come check you out. Okay. >> All right, >> you dumbest. >> Can you stop talking like that? >> I'm talking to you. Am I >> Can you stop talking to other people? Why are you yelling? Can you act like an adult? >> Can you act an adult? >> You [ __ ] You don't talk to me like that. Are you my mom?

You see me on camera. >> Look, your dog is out of control. >> And your mama is out of control. >> My mama's dead. >> And my mama big. >> The woman continued lingering with her dog near the store's entrance where other customers were passing through, prompting the officers to move her to a different area. >> I don't know what >> Can I get your name? Hey, you can't get a thing out of me. >> I'm asking you. >> You can't get a thing. >> Hold on. >> You can't get >> play hot boy and then you can get the away from me. >> That's what you do. >> You You and you and you racist ass cops. >> I don't know. Miami. >> Do I got a car? >> Yeah. >> Yeah. Do you want to see it? >> Sure. Is it here? >> No. >> Oh, you watch it. Okay. >> Yeah. Let's go. >> Let's go. >> I told you to stay over here. And I told you to stay right there, >> man. You understand? You're not respect. >> I understand everything. >> Good. Very good. Thank you. So, you'll know to just stand right over here. >> And I know you better get back. >> I don't think you want to play with me. >> Yeah. I don't I don't think that sit down. >> Hey, now. >> Can you please get your dog in your m Thank you. Just get out of the road. That's all I'm asking. >> At that point, the situation became even more tense. The officers began positioning themselves around the woman in preparation to arrest her. And she appeared to realize what was happening, prompting her to try to flee. >> We thought grab her. >> Yeah. I don't want >> When he grabs the ball, >> that's what we're going to do. >> Hey. Hey. >> Hey. >> Come back. Where are you going? >> Where are you going? >> Where are you going? >> Where?

However, the way she responded only further reinforced their concerns about her mental state. >> No. See, >> are you diagnosed any mental illnesses? >> See, you see me? Do I see you? Yes. C see any mental illnesses? >> Cal Z [ __ ] D. You see a Z A Z. That means Z and ZA away from me. That's what that means. Z [ __ ] Z. >> Yeah. >> Oh yeah.

Hi. >> In the end, the woman was charged with resisting an officer without violence. Failing to control a dangerous pet and refusing to cooperate with officers can quickly turn a manageable incident into an arrest with lasting legal consequences. >> Know your own birthday either. >> You don't lying to the police. >> I'm not lying. >> We're not going anywhere. >> We're not said I'm not going to the >> Not right now. On the 3rd of September 2025, officers received a report of a suspected fraud at Walgreens. A man was believed to have used a fraudulent prescription to purchase codine and promethazine syrup and benzonatate. As soon as officers approached him, things became even more suspicious when he repeatedly gave unusual answers. They said they're having an issue with the prescription, so they're they're worried about it. Um, just a second here. 1106. I'm talking on the subject by the pharmacy now. Um, do you have your ID on you, man? Uh, I don't have my ID on right now. >> Okay. Cuz they're they're having an issue. They said this they're having an issue with this doctor that this doctor doesn't like the numbers aren't working out and they're not able to match anything. So, they're not going to be able to fill that. They came off like >> go to my doctor in person and have this figured out because >> um what's your name, man? >> Um, my name is J. >> You don't know your last name? >> Cuz I'm kind of tired right now. But my >> my standpoint that's real odd that you don't know your last name. You use your mom's new married name. >> Yeah. >> Usually your born name. You're you're getting that changed over. >> But I'm getting that. >> Okay. Okay. So, yeah. As you understand, from my standpoint, that's real odd that you don't know your name or anything like that and you're like going to look at this. Just write it. So, that doesn't help with the whole this feels like a frozen prescription thing. You know what I mean? >> Yeah. >> Yeah. That doesn't that doesn't look >> your first name? >> Uh, what was it? Jaylen. >> You don't know your own birthday either. >> Yeah. >> You know lying to the police? I'm not lying. I was just >> I'm about to go to the doctor so I can actually confirm this. >> Well, we got to confirm some things first cuz it comes off like you're trying to fill a fraud on prescription. >> So, we got to Don't know your don't know your birthday. This is all telling me that this is not a legit prescription that you're trying to Yeah, cuz we're investigating you filling a fragile prescription right now. Hold on. We're We're looking into some things first. I got to figure some things out and then [ __ ] Do you mind having a seat for me? Clearly, he was deliberately trying to hide his identity, which became even more evident when he changed his information once again. >> How old's your uncle? >> How old is my uncle? >> Uncle? >> Uncle? >> Yeah. Okay. What's uh what's his birthday? Do you know? I'm asking for yours though. I was asking for yours. >> 2003. >> What's your name? >> James. So, so none of the information I asked for your name earlier and you gave me a different name than what you just gave her. >> What's your name? >> What name did I just give her? >> What is your name? I don't care what name you're giving us. What is your name? >> My name is James John. >> James John. >> Yes, sir. >> Is that your whole name? What's your last name? John? >> Yes. >> Okay. >> And how do you spell that? >> You got a middle initial at all? >> Uh, okay. So, from my standpoint, you've given us three different names, two different birthdays. I have no idea who you are. You have no idea who your uncle is. You don't know how to spell your last name. So, what am I getting? >> He was clearly stumbling over his own answers. [music] Even when the officers returned to the fraudulent prescription, he became confused and uncertain about it. >> So, where did this come from? >> You have a prescription. You created this yourself. Are you trying to You were trying to fill fraudulent prescriptions. >> I wasn't trying to fill a fraudulent prescription. I got it from my uncle. >> You just said you created it out myself. >> Okay. So, where did this come from? >> It was from an email. >> Who is this prescription for? You don't know your uncle's name? Your uncle's No, that's wrong. You don't know your uncle's name. So, where did you get this prescription? Did you create this? Did you make a fraudulent prescription? Uh, no. I didn't make a fraudulent. I honestly have nothing else to say. >> Okay. Well, all right then. Have a seat. I'm not being detained. >> Yes, you are. Cuz we were investigating a fragile prescription.

You are being held for investigation. >> For what? >> For filling a fraudulent prescription. >> I didn't fill out a fraud. >> That's what we're looking into. But I didn't do it. >> Okay, that's what we're looking into. >> Okay, I need you to have a seat for me. All right, >> but I didn't fill out a fraudulent prescription. >> That's what we're looking into cuz none of the things you're saying is making any sense. So that's what we're looking into. That's what we're trying to figure out. Okay. >> Under the pressure of the officer's relentless questioning, the man was eventually forced to admit everything, including the motive behind his actions. >> You don't know your uncle's name? >> Well, okay. Look, I'll be honest with you. >> Okay. >> I got it off the internet. I printed it out. I photoshopped it. I thought it was whatever. I used it for my uncle and it didn't work because he's sick right now and I thought that would be able to help. >> So, you are in fact trying to fill a project prescription. >> Um, >> you got it off the internet and you photoshopped to change the information to try to come here and fill a fra prescription. >> He already had refills of just whatever. Yeah, I filled out a fraudulent prescription. I got printed it out. I didn't fill it out. It was already filled out. It was printed. >> Okay. You You said you changed some information. Try to put your new name on there. >> Any information? I just printed out the thing that I came over. >> Okay. So, is your uncle sick at all? Is that just made up to? >> No, it's not made up. My uncle actually was sick. >> So, you just happened to find a prescription online that fits your uncle's name? >> He found it and then he asked me was I able to print it up. >> So, who found it? Him or you? Cuz you just told me a second. You found it. >> He found it. Okay, >> I'm sorry about all of this. If I hadn't have known it would have led to this, I wouldn't have did it. I don't have any offenses. Uh, I was just trying to help my uncle. >> And you have no ID on you. Nothing. No way to identify yourself. >> Clearly, there was no longer any way for him to avoid his guilt. At that point, the officers made their decision. Stand up. You have to stand up for me. Well, I'm >> being arrested. >> Yeah. Want to put your anti jack one in. >> Do you have anything sharp? on you that will poke me or cut me when I touch you down. >> You could probably pat me down right now and see >> any weapons on you. >> No, sir. >> No needles. >> I'm going to see if I can get out the bags. Does he have the bags with them or the Do you have the facts with the >> I'm going to see if I can get that number? >> Yes. >> You are in custody at this moment. So, he had >> Officers found a black ski mask and $3.35 on him. The prescription he attempted to use was worth $298.99 at Walgreens, though it was unclear how he intended to pay for the medication. The man was charged with forgery, a class 3 felony. [music] Trying to deceive authorities only makes the consequences worse. Once the evidence exposes the truth, admitting responsibility is far better than continuing to create more lies. >> Can I please see your license and insurance on this car, please? Um, can I see the guidelines? [screaming] >> All right. Yeah. Get this off of me. Oh my god. >> On the 26th of May 2026, police pulled over a vehicle for having no front license plate and an obstructed rear plate. The driver was identified as Lisa, the owner of the Trump themed apparel store Trump Truth Store. The officers had no idea that what happened next would turn into a nightmare. >> Hello. Stay in the car. The reason I pulled you over is you can't have your license plate like that and you don't have a front plate. Do you have your license and insurance? >> No. >> Okay. Do you have an ID? >> No. >> Okay. What's your name? >> I don't know. But I'm recording this because seem pretty rude. >> Okay. >> All right. Okay. Why can't I have my license plate like that? I've been pulled over so many times. I don't have one. >> Number one, you don't you don't have a front license plate. Number two, your license plate is bent. >> Yeah. Okay. >> Yeah. So, it's a violation either way of improper display of registration plate. Can may I please see your license and insurance on this car, please? >> Um, can I see the guidelines where it says your license plate can is is not on, right? >> So, you need to have one affixed to the front of the car and one a fixed to the rear of the car. >> How come like I've been pulled over millions of times and no one's ever said that. >> Well, you're in Carpentersville, ma'am. >> So, do you have your license? >> Different rules. >> Okay. Do you have your license and insurance? Is this private pan? Can you really pull me over here? This isn't a parking lot. >> Okay. Do you have your license and insurance? >> I'm asking you a question. Can you really pull me over? >> How many times do I have to ask you? >> So, are you refusing to ID yourself? >> This is not a parking lot. This road that you were driving in. >> It's public road, by the way. But >> keep going. >> What is your problem? >> Okay. I need to see your license and insurance. This is the fifth time I've asked you. >> I'm asking questions. That's all I'm doing. You're wasting my time. I get to waste your time. >> Okay. >> Okay. That's fine. Are you refusing to ID yourself? That's all I need. >> I don't have a driver's license with me. >> Okay. >> From her attitude, it was clear that she had no intention of cooperating. Things became even more tense when the officer discovered that there was also an active warrant for her arrest. >> Hey, Lisa, I hate to bear the bad news. You have a warrant for your arrest out of DuPage County. Okay. They hold a valid warrant with no bond. Okay. So, I do need you to step out. You will be placed under arrest. Okay. So, at this point in time, you are under arrest. So, please just comply with us. I'd like you to step out. Oh, you're going to be handcuffed. One of these fe nice female officers. Okay. So, you are under arrest for a warrant. Okay. So, please step out. >> I've never got any information on it. >> Okay. Well, DuPage just holds a valid warrant. Okay. So, please step out of the car. Okay. >> For what? >> So, I will have to say I by policy if you do not step out of the car, we will use force. Okay? So, please just step out of the car so I can place you under arrest. Okay? So, you are under arrest at this point. >> And then what happens now? >> Uh, you're going to go down to DuPage County. Are you freaking kidding? >> Yeah. So, please step out of the car. Okay. >> Dupe. And then I'm going to be in a jail cell. >> I don't know. I'm not This is not Dupe. This is Kane. Please step out of the car. I'm begging you. Please step out of the car. >> I can't. I have to lock up my car. >> Okay. We will lock it up. But right now, I need you to step out of the car. >> I need you to step Lisa. >> I'm getting my money. >> You don't need your money either. >> Well, >> there's no It's a no bond warrant. You're not going to have it. Okay. Was she pulling out the money to bribe the officer or simply to post bail for herself? She clearly didn't feel like she had done anything wrong. Even after being handcuffed, she began making the situation much more intense. >> Buddy, hands right now. >> Okay. Can one of you guys search her, please? I'll take that. >> Oh my god. What are you What did I do? >> Are you okay if one of the officers parks your car in illegal parking spot? >> Cuz this is not a legal parking spot. >> That's fine. Yeah. Okay. >> Do you need your wallet? Do you have your wallet? >> You kidding me? This hurts. >> All right. Well, >> this hurts, >> dude. I have done nothing to break a law. >> Okay. >> Well, I don't know what the bullets are. >> I can you see? I can fit a whole finger. You see that? >> I didn't do anything. >> Okay. All right. >> All right, Lisa. This officer is going to do a search on. >> I can't wait for this to go on the media. >> Bull. Oh my god. This hurts. Are you kidding me? Are you kidding me right now? >> Hey, get your sheriff on the top right now. >> Stop. Get this thing off of me. Oh my god, thising hurts. >> Lisa, >> thising hurts. >> Well, Lisa, you're >> No, I'm not doing anything. >> I need you to relax. >> Oh my god. Lisa, >> get this thing off of me. You have no idea what this feels like. >> Okay, just search it right now. >> Get the sheriff. I want the sheriff on right now. This better be recorded. All of this. >> This is recorded. >> Can you get that type of >> No, I've tried that before and there was and the videos all of a sudden went away. >> It's recorded. Okay. >> Yeah, right. They did go away. It's recording. >> Once we get >> Hey, Lisa. Lisa, once we get to the police department, >> you can have the handcuffs. >> It hurts. Lisa, you're the one. >> No, I am not doing anything. It hurts right now. >> Stop tensing up. Okay, >> I'm not even moving. >> Yeah, YOU JUST MOVED. >> OH MY GOD. >> OH MY GOD. GET THE THING OFF OF ME. >> LISA, RELAX. >> I SWEAR TO GOD, it hurts. Lisa, stop. >> Are you [ __ ] kidding me? I am not driving an hour like this. She deliberately made the situation more difficult, portraying herself as the victim while coming up with one ridiculous excuse after another. >> God, get this off of me. Oh my god. I [ __ ] get this thing loose. Get it loose right now. I swear to God. I swear to God, I willing the [ __ ] out of you. OH MY GOD. >> OH my god. All >> good. All right.

What the is wrong with you? Oh my god. I am noting kidding. Oh my god. >> Okay. Hey, Lisa. >> I can't breathe in here. IT'S SO HOT. >> OKAY. >> Are youing kidding me? It's so hot in here. >> In reality, the handcuffs were not even that tight. She was trying to get them off but couldn't. So, she continued complaining about them. >> Yeah, we can fine. Okay, the door's open now. >> What is wrong with you people? >> Oh my god. Oh my god. >> But we're not doing this. Okay. >> Ready to fall off. Oh my god. Oh my god. >> You Why did you put THESE ON SO TIGHT? WHAT IS wrong with you? >> Okay, just lock the car. >> We're done. Lock the car. Lock the car. >> JUST GO. JUST GO. GET ME OUT OF HERE. OH my god. Just All you have to do is turn it three times. OH MY GOD. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, please put these things out. Please, please. I can't believe this. You guys are up, man. Oh my god. Oh my god.

How do you lock the trunk? You wanted to lock your trunk. >> I just PRESS THE BUTTON. LOCK IT. I don't give a [ __ ] >> Which button is it? The right one or >> no button that works on my car. I don't have [ __ ] time to do [ __ ] >> Okay, fine. Despite her erratic behavior, the officers still tried to calm her down and continued explaining why she was being arrested. But it was clear that she had no intention of accepting it. >> Nothing. >> We have you have a thing wrong. >> You have a warrant out of DuPage County. >> I don't give a whating they did. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. So, just so you know, when we get back, we're going to uncuff you and we're the girls have to search you again and then you're going to we're going to take a booking photo and then you're going to go to DuPage County. Okay. >> Oh my god, this is beautiful again. >> Yes. Once you call I get here. >> Once you get uh uh so once we go back to the police department, you'll we'll take we'll search you again and then take the handcuffs off. >> I get a phone call there. >> Yes. And then you have to go to DuPage County. So, we're in Kane County. I don't know how DuPage County does things. Okay. >> I have no idea what the hell this is about. >> So, DuPage said that they have a warrant with no bond. So, >> I Well, why don't they share the war news with me? >> I don't I like I said, we're Kane County, ma'am. I'm sorry. >> Why don't they come to my house? Why don't they come to my store if I have such aing [ __ ] warrant? >> In the end, Lisa was charged with driving without insurance and driving on a suspended license. Sometimes refusing to accept the consequences only makes a situation worse. Her repeated complaints and resistance escalated the encounter instead of helping her. >> 910 Hickory, we have the second female in custody. >> On the 23rd of April, 2025, officers stopped a vehicle in connection with a theft at Walgreens. The suspects were believed to be two women who had fled in the vehicle, but things became even more dangerous when they started driving away. We're a redundant going eastbound 95th Street Edward Victor. All right, coming up on 78th Avenue. Actually, turn south 78th Avenue. All right, coming up. >> All right, you got the 20 vector southbound 78 behind that vehicle. Shortly afterward, officers found the vehicle stopped, but the suspects inside had fled on foot, further escalating the situation. >> What's your car? >> Yeah, I'm at Milford Court. They ran north from here. >> Uh, can I get the description one more time? Did one have like gray hoodie, gray sweats, and pink flops or something? All right. 965 ON THE RUNNING. ONE IN PINK AND ONE RED. >> You're done running. You're done running. I'm going to 910. I send you a photo of your TX of the offenders. One is wearing gray. >> STOP RUNNING RIGHT NOW. YOU'RE DONE. WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT? GET ON THE GROUND. STOP IT. STOP. COME ON. Stop or I'm going to TASE YOU. >> WHAT AM I DOING? >> STOP. >> WHAT DID I DO? PUT >> YOUR HANDS BEHIND YOUR BACK. >> WHAT DO I DO? >> YOU'RE DONE. STOP. >> STOP. >> She resisted while insisting that she was innocent, showing no remorse at all. Even as she was being escorted away, she continued to express her frustration. >> What am I doing? >> 910. Sorry about that. Street, one female custody. >> I got the location. One female custody. >> Yeah, >> she's the one with the >> She's the one with the green letter. Um, >> she had someone else with her. They're pushing >> south. You guys want to grab He was supposed to be on 94th Street. If you guys want to see if they're still moving that direction. I just saw it coming off of uh 78th AB. So, >> wait. Oh, no. If you want to go mobile with it. Yeah, they should still be pushing like south. >> Should just call for a Yeah. Let me get my >> head on straight here. >> No, >> let's get these situated a little bit better. >> Okay, miss. >> Hey, young lady. >> Huh? >> You got to stop now. >> Can you go on the other side? Sorry about >> it's okay if someone's >> What's your name? >> Mia. >> Makia. Chill out a little bit. It's all right. We're going to >> We're going to work with you. Probation or not. It's not worth getting hurt. It's not worth getting hurt over. That's crazy. All right. It's a simple retail theft. We're going to work through it with you. Okay. Are you >> going to lock up? >> Is there someone else like that's going to be hurt right now? >> Go check the rear of 7724. >> The second woman was eventually found as she tried to escape in an Uber. But fortunately, the driver knew what was happening and cooperated with officers to help them take her into custody. >> 48. >> Are you in the area for a reason? >> No, I coming for the woman or the lady. I don't know. >> Yes. Who? Who who requested an Uber? >> Oh, she's in there. >> Okay. >> I'm sorry. Yeah, you can open the doors, please. >> Yeah. >> Thank you. >> Uber. >> Thank you. >> We believe you. >> We believe you. >> Yeah. That's no problem. Uh, do you have your license over there quick? >> Can I Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You're good. You're good. You're good. We're after her, not you. It's okay. >> 910 Hickory, we have the second female in custody. >> Come on. >> Somebody else carrying that. We have more. The woman was handcuffed afterward. Although she remained calmer than the first woman, she showed no sign of remorse either. >> We got a cage on the other side. Absolutely. >> Hey, young lady. Hey, we're going to we're with Hickory Hills. We're going to talk to you and get everything squared away for you and your friend. All right. >> I know. We'll explain in that car. >> We'll talk to you. Everything will be fine. 103. That's affirmative. Both the females are in custody. car. Yeah, we didn't have the air. I don't think we did, but we can release it. Everything's 104. >> I got to figure that anything. I don't have nothing. >> It's all right. We'll figure all that out later. No, I'm over now. >> Did we find out with the I assume with the car yet? >> I haven't been back yet. >> What's Manny? >> Oh, 63 or I'm sorry, >> he's 33. >> 965 to 933. The two women were taken into custody and face charges related to retail theft with additional charges possible for fleeing and resisting arrest. Running from police and resisting arrest only made the situation worse. Staying calm and taking responsibility could have prevented additional legal [music] consequences. >> You are not leaving. Stop. Stop. Stop. >> Look at this. The bottom of this is right here at the bottom. Don't want to take it out. >> Okay. On the 2nd of July 2024, police were dispatched to a liquor store in Illinois after receiving a report of a woman suspected of shoplifting. Upon arriving at the scene, the store owner stepped forward and gave officers his account of what had happened. >> Call right here. There you go. >> Thank you. >> Okay. >> Thank you. Who called? >> She's right here, please. >> Okay. What's What's going on? >> So, what happened is the DTS stole me from >> and he came again today. He got a bag and the B right here >> and we have it even on camera. you. >> I know you saw me eat, but man, you got to pay today. Okay. >> You want to go up front and I'll talk with her? >> Please. >> I'm not doing wrong. >> What? What's What's going on? >> No. He keeps [ __ ] saying like he keeps pushing me. She keeps saying things to me. That [ __ ] ain't right. >> What is he saying to you? >> So she can have it. >> You see, >> I don't want it. I don't want it. I just want to make sure you know. >> Okay, I will handle this. >> I literally just want to walk out. I want to go home. >> NO, YOU'RE NOT WALKING HOME TODAY. >> OKAY. WHAT? Why did you call the police or did he call? >> He >> He called. >> He called. Yeah. >> Why did he call? >> You're stealing stuff or something? >> No, he just keeps touching me. I don't like that. >> What do you mean touch? >> I don't like that. Like >> she turned the accusation back on the officer in an attempt to deny the allegation against her. But her claims came across as hesitant, as if she was making them up on the spot. She even refused to provide her name, only making herself appear even more suspicious. Yes, you're being detained. >> Am I arrested? >> No, you're not arrested. >> Okay. >> What's your first name? >> You're going to make more problems for yourself this way. >> I can walk out for you. You can walk on my >> You're not walking past me. >> You're not going anywhere. >> I am. >> No, you're not. Yes, I am. >> No, you're not going nowhere. >> You're not going anywhere. >> No freaking way. >> Everything you said, thank you. Nothing today. I'm telling you. >> Find the water. >> Huh? >> Hey. >> I'm going tell you it's going to end first for him. >> H. >> It's going to end 10 times worse for him. >> Okay. >> I promise you. >> Well, you're not leaving right now. >> Yes, I am. I'm telling you, you're not. >> I'm just trying to be as nice as I can >> and I'm trying to be as nice as I can to you and say you're not leaving. >> Yes, I am. >> No, you're not. >> The woman tried to act angry and shift the narrative to make herself look like the victim. Even after the officer told her she was being detained, she still tried to walk away as if nothing had happened. >> Excuse me. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. Excuse me. >> You're not leaving. >> You're not leaving. If you try and walk through again, I'm going to put you in handcuffs. Okay. It's very simple. All you have to do is stand here till we figure this out and then you can leave once we get done. >> Don't touch me. Don't touch. >> Stop. >> Stop. Stop. >> Yeah. >> You are not leaving. Stop. Stop. >> Stop. Put your hands behind your back. Stop. >> Stop. >> Am I being detained? >> Yes, you are. Stop. >> Put your hands behind your back. >> No, you're not going anywhere, though. >> You're not going to stop. >> Stop. >> Stop. Put your hands behind your back. Stop. >> Why are you making all the help? >> Am I being the thing? >> I already told you you're >> Am I being arrested? >> Stop. Stop. Stop. I literally don't have a problem as nobody. >> All right. >> Stop. What's your first name? >> No, this is not >> What is he doing this for? >> I need a lawyer. >> I LITERALLY AM TRYING TO LEAVE. >> DUDE, he already grabbed a [ __ ] bottle and then he I'm not going. After successfully detaining the woman, one of the officers reviewed the surveillance footage with the store owner and everything quickly became clear. >> And I'm in a police now with you guys. >> Oh, that's the one you were calling. >> Yeah. >> She started pushing past >> this. Look at this. >> Yeah. >> In one point even hit me with a thing with that thing right in my face. >> Okay. >> Who is a crazy one? >> I don't have nothing else in my life to deal with. He was >> No, >> I said no. No, you're not leaving. Look at this. Look at this. Look at this. >> Look at this. Look at this. Look at this. And that guy. And that guy is staying in the front, too. You know, you're not leaving Mexico. Look at this guy. >> You're not leaving this. >> Did you already have the bottle out of her bag at this point? >> Yes. No. No. No. You can see the tempo. I take it out from the bag. >> Okay. Not. It's not in the back. That's in the front. >> Okay. >> So, let's do this. So, I can't believe it. I just I let it go yesterday, but I said, "No, no, no, no. You again." I said today, "No, it's not going to happen." >> To make matters worse for her, the store owner went on to describe how she had behaved toward him earlier, making it clear that she was anything but the victim. >> Uh, I think I did. Yes, right here. >> This is when you look at this. What is the bottle? Taking the bottle out. Now, this is the best part. We're taking the bottle. Look at this. Look at this. Look at this. Yeah. Yeah. Look at this. She said, "Don't touch me. You touch me." I said, "No, no, ma'am. I'm not touching you." Look at this. >> Yeah. >> Look at this. The bottle. Look at this. Yes. Right there. The bottle. Don't want to take it out. >> Okay. >> You think she has other stuff in her purse or >> I don't The thing is, >> you just saw the bottle. >> The bottle. And you can see the bottle. I mean, there's no way you can fake it. >> Is there anything smaller over there that she can get? I don't know what you did on her back. But the reason I like couple minutes, less than a couple minutes, she wasn't there. I said, as soon as I see her, I said, "Oh, hold on. She's back again." So, she studi I said, "You again, huh?" And she said, "I don't need trouble." I said, "Believe me, ma'am." "Oh, my boyfriend." I said, "Don't bring the boyfriend. I don't give a damn who you use outside." Like I said, I said, "Ma'am, don't don't go in the shop." So, she walked straight in her bag and I thought I lost it for a second. And I said, "Hold up. Where she is?" And I said, "Look, it's no no camera showing up." And I walk right to the back and I see her, you know, she have the big bag moving around. I said, "No, no, no." And the best thing is, you're not going to believe it. >> It's not she got it one time. She I bring her right there. She going to get the second one. OH, I GOT TO GET ONE TODAY. But it's not just one, but she got a second one. THE SAME THING. AND SHE pull striker FOR THAT MAN. I SAID, "NO, MA'AM. YOU'RE NOT WALKING today out. We did this thing." >> The woman was charged with retail theft under $300, resisting a peace officer, and battery involving insulting or provoking physical contact. Actions have consequences, and trying to avoid responsibility often makes a situation much worse. Cooperating with officers during an investigation and resolving the issue through legal channels is far better than resisting, making accusations without evidence or escalating the encounter into additional criminal charges. [cough] >> Go get your man, baby. Um, so I didn't want to tell you, but I 100% know about toys cuz I saw them. >> On February 4th, officers were dispatched to Georgia Square Mall after receiving a report of a couple stealing an adult toy along with batteries, which they concealed in a bag. Officers quickly arrived on scene and the following events unfolded. >> Hey. >> Hey there. >> So, what we got going on? >> Everything. >> All right. Well, let's go ahead and get everything that belongs to them out of here. >> Everything. Everything is going to check. >> There's a lady that went to the bathroom and >> a lady went to the bathroom. What's she wearing? Oh, hello. >> She's right here. >> I'm sorry. Good luck. >> You going to just get everything out that belongs to Spencer? >> No. I thought you >> Yeah, we don't have anything else. >> Okay. >> We don't. >> Anything else from anywhere else? >> No. >> No, just our stuff. Personal stuff. Okay. >> You want to go check the bathroom? >> Yeah. I don't know if there was anything that back, but I do know that's where my step was. >> Well, then somewhere else. >> No. Oh, that's mine. >> You have a receipt for it? >> Um, I do. >> And that's from um where is it? Actually, do you mind if I stick this in the real quick? So, the power >> Yeah. >> Is that where the receipt is? Is in there? >> Yes. cuz I used the uh Google Pay. >> That's fine. >> All those are closed. We live it all day. >> Okay. >> We live. >> Up to this point, the woman had not admitted to shoplifting and the items officers were checking had actually been purchased. This shifted suspicion toward her possibly hiding merchandise while she was in the restroom earlier. She >> Did you drop something in the bathroom? >> I did not. Hold on to drop it. >> I need to drop. >> I promise you I know if you don't. >> Okay. I I'm just asking. So, I don't know why she just put that stuff there. Um, so to tell you, but I 100% know that's hers cuz I saw one in that trash, but I didn't put my hands in it cuz I don't have clothes, >> sir. >> Hold on. My Hold on. I did drop some. Can you tell? >> Yeah. Hold on. Just Just hang out for me here. >> Right with my money and everything. >> I got you. Do you think you dropped it in the background? >> That's what she's talking about. It is. >> Well, they're probably going to bring it in here. Just calm down. It's okay. I just thought about it's right there on the on the uh the little silver bathroom hanging back. Please go get >> There's three people in there. Just that they'll be back in just a second. I guarantee you that's what they found. Okay. >> For shoplifting. >> Yeah. >> They'll probably press charges for it. Spencer usually does. I don't want to touch it. >> I just don't want to touch. >> I'm going to just spread this open just to be sure. Okay. >> You got yours with you? Um, I do not I have your >> Okay, there we go. Sir, you have your ID? >> I tell him all my information when y'all came. >> Yeah. Yeah, exactly. He told me. >> Additionally, officers quickly recognized the woman as somewhat familiar, suggesting this was not his first involvement in theft related behavior. >> My car. [snorts] >> Okay. How many times have you been convicted for shoplifting? >> Only like twice. >> Cuz the last time we picked you up, I think it was a couple times. over here. >> Now, last time Detective Franco got you, you had been >> Franco. What? Who is Detective Franco? >> He's the one who works all the shopliftings. >> Oh, but I've never been to this mall. >> Can you just give me a description? Height and weight. >> Height, brown eyes. >> Looks like he does have a mustache. >> No, I'm talking about me. >> Yeah. Warrant for failure to appear for something. >> Oh, no. They gave me one. >> Did you go to port? >> What? They gave me a stitching one. >> We're checking right now. >> Well, it looks like if you do have one, you'll be taking care of that court case a lot sooner than you plan. So, >> I got to go. >> If they confirm it, then yeah. But, >> man, this >> I'm sorry. I'm sorry. >> On both suspects faces, there was no sign of remorse. partly because the woman had her own justification for her actions. Unfortunately for them, reality did not align with their expectations. >> I would like to think I would have took >> Okay. What was your question? >> Like I'm saying like I didn't walk out with anything. >> All you have to do is conceal. >> What you mean conceal? >> Put things into a bag is all you have to do. >> I didn't have anything. All I'm saying I wasn't concealing anything. >> It's it's the it's the intent to to take your name. >> All right. So give me just a second. So, they are going to want to take you. Okay. >> So, I'm going to go and put you in a handcuff. Okay. >> Okay. Do you want me to give you all my money? >> I don't I don't know, man. >> Okay. >> I came because of you. >> Come around to where the office is. >> Okay. I would bug you out, >> man. Bung out >> on my tits. I >> Let me ask you this. So, as you know that you you going to go, they going to search you? >> What? What you got on you? >> Is it anything that's going to stick or poke me or hurt me? >> I don't know. >> You don't know. You don't know if you have anything. >> I don't know. They get out of my pocket, man. Damn, man. Come on. Is it Is it in this pocket? >> I don't know. Get out of my pocket. I got cards and all my pocket, man. Stop listening. >> We're going to have our own charges. >> Okay. Excuse me. >> Mhm. >> Just have a seat, Ricky. Okay. >> The man was successfully placed in handcuffs and of course the woman soon faced the exact same outcome. >> 11 need criminal histories on both. >> It's too late for that. What you need to do is probably stop shoplifting. All right. because you're not really good at it. >> And also racist. >> Huh? >> I said after you call me racist. >> No, I understand. >> Gonna ask a favor. >> No, it wasn't a >> Okay. >> All right. So, I'm going to You can still smoke a cigarette with handcuffs on if that's if that's going to happen. Okay. >> Do what now? >> Put in front. I'm pregnant anyway. >> I said, "Can you put them in the front?" If I'm pregnant, >> that's why I'm going to do I'm going to do two. I'm going to do two. It's going to be a lot more comfortable putting them in the back. But I told him in the front said I'm high >> unless you've been convicted before. >> I got to get through her history cuz I don't know what else she's been convicted of. >> Okay. >> I ain't know you had all that open man since you'll be transporting. Do you want front or back with her? She does have an ankle that's messed up. She she could fall. >> Okay. Here. Go in. Put your hands like you're praying like this. >> Not going to get no trouble, are you? >> No, I promise you I'm not. No, I'm not even like that. It was clear she cared more about her dignity than her wrongdoing. Even claiming pregnancy to avoid being handcuffed while continuing to give unreasonable excuses for her actions. >> At least minimum one year. >> I don't just do it just to do it through I have an active addiction. >> No, I and I get that. I'm just letting you know. You don't need that at 22 years old. >> Don't need that. >> So just I I get it's an addiction. I I've met a bunch of people that say that. >> So I'm about to go. But what I'm going to tell y'all is if either one of y'all give him a hard time on the way to the jail, >> we going to be seeing each other again. >> Okay. I'm just saying I don't want to be pulling up to him when pulled over on the side of the road. >> Yeah. You get charged. You got >> five pending here in Clark County and then you got one county. >> My god. >> This Yeah, baby. I didn't know baby. >> So it's it's lifetime. It it don't matter. I told you you need to stop shoplifting. >> They changed it. >> But I'm saying that you know what shoplifting is because you've been arrested for it. >> I would. >> So you're you're not you're not ignorant to it or naive of it. You know what's going on, man. This >> Okay. >> All right. >> Okay. >> I wouldn't be at home right now, but you wanted to show me a quick time. You got >> No, no, no, no, no. We went and got a hotel room first, but then we came back going get some food, Chinese food. But then Spencer popped up and I like, oh lord. Finally, they were charged with shoplifting with a guilty plea, possession of controlled substances, sentenced to 90 days of confinement, and 12 months of probation. Actions driven by excuses and denial only deepen the consequences. Taking responsibility early is the only way to break the cycle. >> I know my law. I know my wife. >> I did everything that told me him to do. He going to manhandle me. >> Stand up for me, >> man. You suck my Please don't let him. >> I DON'T WANT HIM TO TOUCH ME. ON JUNE 23RD, 2025, police were dispatched to Boschau after receiving reports of three suspects involved in shoplifting. Upon arrival, the suspects were still in the parking lot, completely unaware of the unfolding situation. >> Excuse me, sir. >> Hi, I'm officer I'm officer SC. I'm with the Eatontown Police. >> I need I need her backpack. I need all this stuff in the car. >> Just let you know this instance being recorded. Okay. Hello. >> Hi. Hi. >> Could you shut off the car for me, please? Shut off the car for me. And you can just exit. That's fine. Exit. We're going to talk. We're going to talk. You, too, ma'am. You got to exit the car. Okay. >> I'm Officer Scam with the Eaten Town Police. >> I need the backpack. I need the chair. That's >> just let you know since it's being recorded. Okay. >> Yes. >> Come on. Out of the car there, ma'am. >> We need the chair that's in the back in the car as well. >> Yep. >> Whatever's his. Go ahead and give him whatever. I don't have his. Nothing of his. >> You don't have anything of his? >> No, I'm not. I don't. >> Okay. All right. All right. We're going to figure it out. >> You see it? >> Can I see the bag, bro? >> Can you see the bag? >> And there was like a big blue uh chair that you had slung over your shoulder. Where's that? >> Got a lot of pillows in here. >> Whatever's yours. Just find yours and take yours. >> Exactly. >> All right. I got plenty of plans and everything. >> Lady, I sit there and tell you we went to the register and pay for this [ __ ] >> Guys, guys, guys. This is we get called here. We're going to figure this out. >> We're going to figure it out. Okay. We're not here to give you a hard time. We're just going to >> give us a hard time. >> No, we are not giving >> I've been nothing but polite to you. >> The woman's arrival escalated the situation, forcing the officers to work hard to calm everyone present. Though their effort seemed largely ineffective, it's like this profile though. I'm stealing something bugging, bro. >> We're going to figure it out. >> My job is to my job is to protect you and make sure that everything is correct. Okay? So, let me just take care of it. And if he's wrong, we'll determine that. Okay. >> All right. There's a friend of mine just came picked me up. >> That's fine. Guys, do you have ID with you? Does everyone have ID? >> Do you have ID with you, sir? >> I got Okay. Can I see your ID, please, sir? You want to see my ID? What I do? >> You're invol You're involved in a You're involved in the shop? >> I'm not involved in nothing. I'm with I'm not involved in nothing, bro. Sir, sir, listen to me, >> sir. I know my law. I know my rights. >> I know my rights. I came in the store. I bought something. I bought what I bought. I'm not involved in nothing. I don't have to give my name. If you want to go further with that, you can. I got Look, I got a big ID on me. >> It's right here. >> Okay. So, sir, listen. >> I got big idea on me. I'm not I ain't got hide. Hold up. >> Yeah. I didn't >> I know. I got big money on me. >> All right. >> So, listen. I I didn't accuse you of anything. Okay. I'm investigating. I got I got money right here. >> So, I don't have to steal. That's profiling, bro. You lying, bro. The man tried to justify himself by showing the money he had, but of course that offered no excuse, nor did the woman's subsequent statements. >> Um, so he's going to determine how >> but he said we took and here is the book bag. He went through the book bag. Nothing's in the book bag. He seen stuff coming from the police point of view. They called us. We're just here to try to figure out what's going on. >> I understand. >> So we're going to see what >> you can talk. Ma'am, >> where's my phone? >> Oh, I dropped my phone. >> We're trying not to make this a big deal. >> All three of them for what? >> She walked out. The uh woman with the yellow shirt walked out with the comforter. >> That's the blue. >> I didn't know honestly. I just >> I watched you do it. >> Yeah, but I didn't know it was >> You watched them tried to stop the bag and then she >> No, she didn't. >> No, she did not. No, she did not. >> I'll step out of the car pool. >> For what? >> Thank you. Well, we're going to figure this all out. So, >> why am I stepping out the car for? >> Because it's an active investigation. You might be placed under arrest. We don't know yet. >> I'm not being placed under arrest. I'm I'm right here. >> Yes, he did. Yeah. >> Everything else. >> She took this blue bag. >> Yeah, I did. >> She put that cup was mine. To clarify, the woman confidently denied any wrongdoing because she had used the blue bag to steal, but then left it inside the store before exiting. This gave her the confidence to challenge the officer so boldly. >> But I never came out the store with >> that stuff. I never walked out the store with. >> He had this in his bag and she had all this. >> But I never walked out the store with that [ __ ] >> All right. >> At all. >> I didn't walk out none of the store with none of that. >> This was in his bag. Okay. But we didn't go through we didn't go through the bag just yet. He just he just forfeited that to us, right? >> Okay. Yes. And this was in this black bag. >> I never had that. That bag was stayed in that store and never came out that store. >> That bag never came out that store. >> Yes. >> Right. >> She went behind her. >> That wasn't in no cart. >> And then she took uh the three bags of chips. Uh the >> Yes, I did take the three bags of chips. >> Bag. >> Okay. >> She picked this up out of the display, put it right over her shoulder. They walked out. He put this concealed it in. >> That's one already used. >> And the girl Neil shirt uh picked this up off the selling floor and walked out with it. >> Okay. All right. >> But it never came out the store. >> My point is it never came out the store. >> What? >> I stopped you outside the store. >> It didn't come out the store. It never moved out that door. Tell the truth. Tell the truth. >> The woman was even certain about a black bag that hadn't left the store. Clearly aware of the stolen items inside. It seems she had a keen understanding of what legally constituted stealing. >> All right. >> Once you walk out that door, then you're stealing. >> Sure. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> All right. Uh, guys, listen. Everyone, uh, you're stealing. >> And then you're being Guys, listen. You're being placed under arrest for shoplifting. Okay. >> Stop. >> Nothing walked out that door. >> You're being placed under arrest for shoplifting. >> I never got back. >> I'm telling you. Just put your hands behind your back. It's going to be resistant. >> I know you're not. I know you're not. >> I will take care of >> bring this. Let her lock. Do not tell me. He has to laugh at myself right now. >> Turn around. Put your hands behind your back. >> Turn around. >> Let me get I am. Please don't grab me. I said I will. >> Put your hands behind your back right now. Turn around. >> All right. Can I Can I turn around? >> Turn around. >> Let me go then. Turn around. >> Let me go. I know the law. >> Turn around. >> I know the law. >> Turn around and I'll turn around. >> Turn around. Be nice. >> Turn around right now. >> Be nice. Turn around. >> Be nice. Don't grab me. >> Don't Why is he >> Why is he doing that? >> I DIDN'T DO NOTHING TO HIM. >> RELAX. >> I didn't do nothing. Relax. >> Relax. The camera will show it. >> Turn around. >> Relax. >> Stop resisting. >> I'm not resisting. I'm not doing nothing. >> I'm not even resisting. I'm not scaring you. >> Put your hands behind your back. Put your hands on. >> When I tell you to do something, you do it. >> You It's up to me. >> You're hurting me. >> Stop hurting me. >> Don't move. Don't hurt me. >> Don't move. You're hurting me. Stop pushing me. She's not listening. I'm not pushing you. you are. Calm down. Calm down. >> She swatted the officer's hand when they tried to detain her. Yet immediately afterward, she positioned herself as the victim, acting as if she hadn't resisted at all. >> As hell, I DIDN'T RESIST. >> I know you didn't resist. >> I didn't resist. >> I saw that, sister. >> I didn't resist. Get the my purse. You ain't ask. >> You ain't ask now. Get out my purse. >> Just be silent. >> You ain't ask. Be silent. >> Get out my purse. very silent. >> Just help. >> And I didn't resist. >> I didn't resist. >> And you know I didn't resist. Why you take my apart? >> Ma'am, face the car. Don't move. >> No, you face the car. >> I resist. You're lying. >> Kick open your legs. >> Ma'am, kick open your legs for me. >> They're open. They're open. >> They're open. My legs are open. I'm not going to spread them as wide as you want. I ain't got no gun or nothing. I don't I'm not violent. I'm not a violent person at all. >> Okay. >> Ask anybody about Can I get my glasses >> off the ground? >> Right there. >> Right there. >> Thank you. >> Can I get my purse? >> Bring it all with us. It's all coming back. Come on. >> I want my purse. >> We'll get it. >> One might think she would start cooperating at this point, but no. She was completely different from the other suspects, fully aware of how to make things difficult for the officers and acted as if she had every right to do so. >> Stop pulling me. Stop. >> Well, THEN JUST WALK. >> WELL, I'M WALKING, but he's pulling me. >> Walk in a straight line. >> Why you got to pull? >> I can't walk. >> Got nothing. >> What are you reaching for? >> I HAVE NOTHING. >> WHAT ARE YOU REACHING FOR? >> Your ass. Stay right there. Stop. >> Get off me. I have nothing. I have nothing. Officer, I told him I have nothing and I have nothing. Get off me. Get the off me. GET OFF ME. I HAVE NOTHING. >> GET IN THE CAR. >> I SAY I HAVE NOTHING. >> GET IN THE CAR. >> Can you not pull my arm? >> Get in the car. >> Thank you. I will. Can I get up? I CAN'T GET IN THE car like this. >> I'm 25 years old. Who the you think you pulling on and pushing on? Don't push me. Don't push me. >> Get in the car. >> Don't push me. >> Think you are. >> Even back at the police station, her rage remained intense. Each I did nothing completely contradicted by the stream of insults she hurled. >> I did everything that told me him to do and he going to manhandle me. >> Ma'am, stand up for me. >> Man, you suck my dick. Don't let him touch. Please don't let him. >> I DON'T WANT HIM TO TOUCH ME. >> MA'AM, STAND UP. >> Don't let him touch me. STAND UP. >> HE CAN'T. I DON'T WANT HIM BOTHERING ME, TOUCHING ME. HE CAN'T HANDLE ME ENOUGH. >> All three suspects were charged with shoplifting. Meanwhile, this woman also was charged with resisting arrest. Trying to hide theft and challenged the police only makes things worse. All three suspects refused to cooperate, but surveillance video proved the truth beyond doubt. >> They're saying that I used one of the credit card from work. >> Andrea, man, >> I didn't. That's why you got fired. >> On the 1st of December 2025, the owner of a gift shop at Living Desert Zoo went to the police station to report that an employee she had once trusted had used the company card information to pay for her personal expenses. But that wasn't all. Let's hear her statement. >> I have a girl that works for me since June. >> Okay. I trusted her 100%. Apparently, from people that work in the same building with us, said that uh they believe this happened with the help of her husband. She took that. Well, let me just put it this way. She copied the information off of my business credit card and paid a $1,200 water bill. >> Okay, let's go. >> People remember her calling in because they had incidents with her and the doctors. >> I said, I don't want her in history. I just want proof that she stole from me. Please, I'm not drama. I didn't even want to look at that. That scared me to have a water bill of $1,197. >> So, she paid a she paid this entire water bill. >> Yes. With my business credit card. >> Okay. Do you still have her as an employee? >> No, she didn't. She was supposed to come work today, but she didn't. I've left her three voice messages. Do not tell her anything about >> I'm not I'm not I'm not even calling her no more because on Wednesday I called and I said, "Hey, Andrea, I need to talk to you." When I left the bank, I said, "Could you give me a call?" Usually she's right on it because she has them things in her ears and everything. >> Mhm. >> Then I called her an hour later and I said, "Okay, Andrea, the reason I need to talk to you is about the water bill. Could you please call me so we can set up a date to get my key back to my shop and give you your last paycheck?" That's all I said >> for the suspect's actions. She could have been charged with embezzlement. But that was not the only offense. As the shop owner continued to reveal more of her wrongdoing. >> What is embezzlement? >> Embezzlement is when someone transfers something that they have been entrusted with to their personal use without permission. >> But I'm missing cash, too. But I can't prove it's her. So, I ain't going there. That was $420 in cash for it. I cannot prove that she's the one who did it. That's a she you said >> that's actually our job is to prove it. Do you have any cameras there where the show Okay. >> No, it's the idea that she did it and she could do it to somebody else. I don't want it to happen to somebody else cuz she's good. She had my trust 100%. I was just going to hand her my job. So, this ticks me off and now I can't retire until the summer. My husband even cancels his retirement. He's the director of the zoo. Well, those personally handled a different way. >> All right. Don't do that. >> Okay. Don't do that. >> Here's when I'm going to be talking to her. >> After reviewing the information and securing the evidence, police went to the woman's home on December 16 to hear her side of the story. >> Need to speak to Miss Angelina. >> Miss Angelina? >> Yeah. Are you Are you her, Miss? >> What happened? >> Huh? >> What happened? >> Well, that's what I need to talk to her about. >> Oh, okay. >> Okay. So, um, do you guys have a second? You have a conversation. Okay. How's it going? So, um, I'm Officer Phil Holmes from Carlsbad PD. Uh, I'm the one that was, um, I'm the one that's doing the follow up on the investigation with the credit card, >> okay, >> stuff. So, that's what I'm actually here to talk to you about. And also the checking stuff that happened with um the checking stuff that happened with the city with the water. >> That was my account, >> but it's taken care of. >> Okay. Well, uh actually it's kind of not cuz we've kind of got a we've kind of got an issue with it. Okay. So, but before we go um any further into it, I'd like to um make sure that your rights are protected and everything. I'm going to read you um what's called Miranda. No matter what happens today, I'm not sitting up here trying to take you to jail today. Okay? That's not what's going on. But I do need to talk to you. That's fine. No, no, no. That's fine. >> Clearly, the shop owner had already texted her about the water bill. But when she spoke to the officer, she acted completely unaware, and it seemed that her family had no idea about what had happened either. >> You wish to talk to us now without an attorney, >> what the hell did you do? They're saying that I used one of the credit card from work. >> Andrea, man, >> I didn't. >> That's why you got fired. >> I didn't get Can we discuss this? >> Go shut that closet so the cops won't get in there, man. >> They said you didn't find you did it. >> Okay. So, that's kind of um So, it's up to you if you want to talk to us now. If you don't want to talk to us now, >> I'll talk. If I don't want to answer it, then I'll >> Yeah, then you can just tell me. Yeah. >> Okay. >> So, okay. I am not coming to take to try and arrest you today or do anything like that, but I do have to follow up. Huh? >> Can I ask some questions? What? They said she stole a credit card or something. >> Well, that's what we're about to get into. >> Yeah. I mean, >> right. >> I have to ask her. I have to ask her the questions about it. Now, as a courtesy, usually I don't let people do stuff like that, but you invited us into your home. As a courtesy, if she doesn't mind you asking any questions with it, I have no problem. >> This is like the second time she's done this and [ __ ] I want to know what's going on. >> So, even her family admitted that this was not the first time she had been involved in theft. Her face also began to tense up as she faced the consequences she may have caused. >> So, how much is it altogether? I for the credit card it's 1,100 and something and then for the checks it's uh each time counts by itself even though it may have been one bill that was cycling each one checks by counts by itself so it's 18 counts. There's like five or six that are 730 something and then there's a few that are like 840 something. So okay. Um, so that's what I'm trying to do is because I could have just gone and filed for an arrest warrant and get this up, but I want to get your side of the story. I want to see what's going on to see what's happening. Right. Let's uh start with the with the credit card. Um cuz that that was actually used on your on your account um back in January. >> I had to stop and think what we're where we're at. >> Right. You want to talk to me about that? going to tell me what happened. >> I don't have when I was working there. I don't have that credit card. They use it. There's other employees there that use it. There's one that he's a maintenance guy. >> Mhm. >> And at the time she was out, the boss was out and he had had it cuz he come to get it and it wasn't in its place. And then they found it later on. I guess he had thrown it on his desk or in the drawer or something. I don't know. They come and said they found it that I didn't have to look for it anymore. >> Right. But so you're telling me the maintenance guy used the credit card for the Hercultural Society to pay your water bill for you? >> That's what you're telling me? >> I'm just saying I didn't have it. >> Okay. >> She denied taking the company card, but what about having its number and information? Maybe it was the quickest evasive answer the woman could come up with. Because after a barrage of questions from the officer, she eventually had to admit everything. >> Okay. Um, so what about um the electronic checks from August of 2025 up until November? >> Cash app. >> That's off cash app. >> Yeah, my cash app credit card. Did you have an account number? >> Okay. Um, but they all bounced. >> Yeah, cuz I when it started, I didn't they ran it and I didn't get my money switched over into the account. >> Okay. So again, I'm going to ask you to be truthful with me because remember I have the records, okay? Um and with those records, it shows that every time you got a bill that you did this cash app account, okay? And then that cash app account went and it was declined. Water stayed on and it did that every single time. every time there was a fee, it did the same the same time because those amounts match up because it was either the same day or the day after those bills came out. Okay. So again, was that you're doing that on purpose just to keep the water on? Are there issues? I mean, are we are you having financial issues or something that maybe it's a mitigating factor we could talk to the DA about? I mean, what's going on? What are we >> Yeah, just trying to get everything balanced out. Okay. >> I started that job in June, so trying to get balanced with my money and everything. >> Okay. >> Cuz I hadn't been working. >> Oh, okay. >> I had just got that job in June. >> Okay. >> So, trying [clears throat] to just get my brother works and everything, too. So, you know, we were trying to keep I was trying to keep everything my share of the >> In her confession, she brought up her difficult circumstances and by continuing to emphasize them, it seemed like she was trying to gain the officer's sympathy. >> What kind of health issues? >> My medication I take um I have a broken back. >> Okay. >> Um I have spinal stenosis. >> Okay. >> Hi disc. my knees. I'm fixing to get ready uh for a knee replacement. That's why I asked if I could sit down. >> Right. No, that's fine. >> Um the medication I take is what helps me not be in pain, >> right? >> Well, I have Medicaid and and all that that pays for all my stuff. >> Okay. >> So, I'm on Medicaid. It pays for everything. I'm just waiting for my surgeon to >> Okay. do that. But >> so I would say after the arrest warrant cuz you could even turn like even if we do a warrant you guys can you can even come and turn yourself in and then whatever they do on the release side you can do that as well. When you do it that the best thing is when you talk to them is to tell them I want to make this right. This is not something that you know I I know I did it on purpose. This is what it, you know, it is what it is, but I want to make it right. Okay. So, every time that you go on the electronic thing and you use your cash app and you don't have the money in there, basically you're committing check fraud. Does that make sense? >> Yeah, it does. But then at the same time, it doesn't. You know what I'm saying? I mean, to me, it would be like insufficient funds in your account. But no, I I >> But if you do it on purpose purposely insufficient funds, it's like so it would be like me. So, say say I want I like old cars, right? So, say I want to buy the pickup truck from you, right? And I'm like, "Hey, I'll pay you. I'll I'll Vinmo you the money every month or whatever." So, I Vinmo it to you, right? But then I put I stop the payment on the Vinmo or I don't have the money in the Vinmo, right? Or I'm using a credit card. Even if it's on autopay, I should know that that money is not there. In the end, Andrea was charged with one count of embezzlement, one count of theft of a credit card, and 18 counts of issuing worthless checks. But Andrea pleaded not guilty to all charges, and her jury trial was scheduled for November 20126. Taking money or using entrusted financial access for personal needs can quickly turn a financial struggle into multiple criminal charges, especially when the transactions are repeated and intentional. Not theft, but this woman caused chaos just the same. >> I walk on the silent house. It showed it. It showed it so you not stupid. You lost. >> On May 23rd, 2025, officers received a report from the airport about an intoxicated passenger causing a disturbance while demanding to board a flight. When they arrived at the scene, the situation remained completely tense. to go to the nonsequ. >> So your dad's probably going to be embarrassed by go. You have to go front now. >> Because she was drinking. >> No, they came off the flight. said that I was I was um >> they felt that you were on the influence alcohol. You weren't acting appropriately and they got you off the plane >> and they got me off their plane. >> Now it's time for you to leave the secure side. These deputies are going to escort you up front. Do what? >> Escort you. So they don't want to escort me. I'm going to walk myself. >> But it's time for you to leave now. You tell me it's time for you to leave now. 6 at 4:42. It's time for me to leave. Yes, >> I'm walking. >> 40 for you. >> Excuse me, officer. Um, >> yes, ma'am. >> May you please? >> Well, let's walk. >> Okay. >> Under the officer's explanation, the woman stopped causing a disturbance at the boarding gate, but it did not mean it would stop somewhere else. >> Yes, you're going to leave. If you give us any type of resistance, we're going to take you to jail for being drunk and disorderly [laughter] taking my lap. I'm a nurse. Y'all can take my ass. I'm not drunk. >> Just Just listen. >> That was it. So, please let us go. >> Tell me why would you why tell me why I got to go. >> Let me walk out on your own.
