cuz uh Illinois lifted law today. I get the free. >> This is illegal as you're not a girl digging all over me. I'm charging you. I hope you know that, Mr. M. Brown. >> It is illegal. It's against the law. The American law. I know my laws. >> I can pay for it. I have more than enough money to pay for it. I'm a whole nurse. I'm in nursing school. I'm not here for any of that. That's why I'm asking. >> I mean, I'm just saying why you rubbing on. >> You don't wear a tampon like that. Okay. I mean, yes, I don't wear a tampon like that. Okay. Not allowed. Did you grab my vagina? spread your legs. And I told you exactly before she came over. >> Take me to the jail and run the scan. Then >> it was laughable how some shoplifterss never accepted being caught red-handed as arrogance replaced shame and drove them to lie, even claiming they had the right not to be stealing at all. But what was the reality? Find out in today's video when entitled shoplifterss go crazy after their scheme has been exposed. We're here to show the footage of justice, not to humiliate anyone. Don't forget to like and subscribe. First, we met a whole nurse and the tension she created. >> I'm a whole nurse. I'm in nursing school. I'm not here for any of that. That's why I'm asking them what's going on. You ask a young lady and I'm so promise to God. I promise to God, I do not steal from no Walmarts. I have not stolen from no Walmarts. I've never been in trouble for stealing. >> On November 21st, 2025, officers were dispatched to Walmart after receiving a report of a woman who shopped but failed to fully pay for her items. Upon arrival, the suspect had already been taken to the loss prevention office where tensions immediately escalated. >> Hello. >> All right. I'm officer, but can you tell me about what's happening today? >> Yes. And I did not intentionally try to steal anything. I was having issues over there with the scanner. This stuff is $200. Why would I take that little amount of stuff? Like, I could pay for it. I have more than enough money to pay for it. I'm a whole nurse. I'm in nursing school. I'm not here for any of that. That's why I'm asking them what's going on. You asked the young lady and I'm so I'm so mad because I'm telling her I don't need a receipt. But I actually needed a receipt. I didn't even know none of that was going on. >> Okay. All right. I want to see what they have. >> And I am not a thief. I don't have no thefts, no nothing. I am a whole nurse. I'm in nursing school. I cannot even afford to have this going on, sir. I can pay for this stuff. and then however y'all want to go about it like but I can that's just >> okay. >> The woman invoked her profession as a nurse to assert her innocence only for it to later emerge that she dismissed the incident as nothing more than a simple mistake. >> Let me uh see what they what they saw here. >> I could have if I was trying to steal I could have just had more merchandise. That's what I'm trying to tell y'all. That was an honest mistake. I scanned the thing two times. I thought they was the same price. They were on the shelf on the same thing. I'm not here to steal nothing from nobody. Okay. >> Is there one where she scan something twice? I didn't right here. It's 4 something. This one's 10 something. So, she's getting nothing. >> Okay. >> And then the other one she was holding multiple items. >> Yeah. scanned one, >> but it scanned all those items at the same time. I had those phones in my hand. So, if you look on the receipt, it be it said big >> and that >> and then so when they go back, if you paid with a card or something, you pay with a card with that. If they go back and check old video, are they going to find same thing? >> I promise to go. I promise to go I will not steal from no Walmarts. I have not stolen from no Walmarts. I've never been in trouble for stealing. This is not something that goes on. I was on the phone while I was scanning the items and the machine was giving me an issue. You ask the lady that's down there cuz see, she kept telling him she has the receipt. She has the receipt. I didn't come here to y'all store just to steal nothing. That's what I'm trying to tell you. I actually It was an accidental mistake. I put the pants and the shirts together. It's not like it intentionally happened. >> Just as the woman claimed, she did not steal. She skipcanned. In reality, it was not just one set of clothes, but multiple items handled the same way. Yet, she still denied any wrongdoing. >> You can swipe that card and go to the other stores and see, I've never stolen anything. I've never stolen anything in my entire life. I've never been to jail for theft. I do not steal from you. >> All right. Well, unfortunately, today, uh, you did leave last sale without paying for items. So, that is retail theft. So, uh, you you're not going to go to jail. you're not going to do anything like that, but you are going to have a charge for retail theft. You're going to have to go to court." >> Thus, conclusions were reached in her case, and strikingly, she calmly accepted them as if this were the outcome she had expected all along. However, the tension quickly returned when officers uncovered another issue involving her. >> Okay. Now, it seems like you drove yourself here and you have a suspended license as well. >> Well, I have a license in Missouri, but he's telling me the license in Illinois because I'm just moving here from Missouri. He's telling me the license in Illinois is not valid. But I've already went through this with the with the courthouse because >> in Illinois you still can drive. You don't even >> But I seen a hearing I seen a hearing officer. So my license in Illinois was supposed to be valid because I seen a hearing officer here in Peoria, Illinois over in um off of I don't even know. I'm not It's by the Gailsburg somewhere exit over there. I'm not from here so I don't know. >> Unfortunately, it didn't correct it cuz in the Secretary of State you are still suspended in Illinois which >> I did not know that. I did not know that. That was I'm going with this. Um, we have enough going on here with your with the retail theft that >> if you can get somebody else to give you a ride from here, >> I won't write you suspended. >> Okay, I will. I will get I will catch a Uber. >> I'm going to let you fix fix that with the secret and everything, but uh we won't add that to what's going on. So, just have you hang out here for me so I can get your paperwork. >> I'm okay. >> Then we'll get you out of here. >> Is there anything in your pockets? Were you stuffing stuff in your pockets? >> No, I don't have anything. The woman's intense objections were met directly by officers who swiftly completed the remaining procedures so she could be allowed to leave. >> All right. So, this is uh Have you signed this? Just saying you uh you're not aditting guilty. You're just saying you understand you have a court date and you're going to show up. >> Can I write that on there? >> You're going to copy this. >> Oh, you're not admitting guilt. >> Yep. I can write that on here. I ain't even going to do y'all paper like that. >> Just not admitting guilt on your camera. Not guilty. Accident. I was on the phone and they still broke out. >> So, this is your >> All right. Um, you're obviously free to go with what you have here. >> Yeah. I'm going to wait on my list from right here. They not they did not trespass me on the hood. Thank y'all. I appreciate it. All right. You're good now. Do >> you have any questions or anything? The woman was found guilty of retail theft and the case was forwarded to court for further proceedings. Denying responsibility and arguing aggressively only worsened the situation while early honesty and cooperation could have reduced the consequences. Next, the woman believed she had the right to pay after stealing the items. Oh, it's stupid is what I did. It was really stupid. >> I'm not sure what that is. >> I'm sorry you guys. It was really stupid of me and I was with some people and I should not have done it. >> On January 13th, 2025, police received a call from Walmart regarding a woman who had arrived with friends and was suspected of shoplifting. Upon arriving at the scene, she and her friends had already left the store and moved into the parking lot. Here is what happened next. Hi. You want to step out for me? >> Uh, for what? >> Uh, you're being accused of retail theft. So, I I need you to talk to asset protection. >> I haven't seen. >> Sure. I need you to talk to asset protection just to get this cleared up. >> I'm sorry. >> I need you to talk to asset protection to get this cleared up. But they followed you out of the building. Well, >> they followed me out. >> Yeah. >> Nobody followed me out. >> Okay. They're not allowed to leave the sidewalk area. So, they're not allowed to leave the sidewalk area, so they just followed you. >> Nobody followed me. My boyfriend walked up to me to come get me. >> Sure. They didn't They didn't walk you out. >> I had a friend that was with me. >> Okay. >> She's not in here. >> Where she at? >> I don't know. >> All right. So, that be the reason why you guys circle back around. >> Huh? >> Cuz you were at the AT&T store. >> AT&T store. >> Uh-huh. And then you came back to here >> to go get Yeah, cuz my boyfriend >> So where is she at? >> I don't know. My boyfriend and her boyfriend were over there playing slots. >> Ah. >> I came over here so that she didn't have to walk or anything. And I had some things. I had to get towels and things like that. Got my receipt. >> All right. >> And I can get it out of the bag at the home to >> Well, you your clothes don't match the description. So that makes sense that you had a friend in here. What was her name? Him. Kimberly Green. >> There was no suspect matching the store's description inside this car, but according to their statements, they admitted they had been riding with the suspect in this car. >> So, they followed her. She got into this van. You guys drove to the AT&T store. Then you drove right back here. So, is she at AT&T still? >> Um, he said he dropped them off somewhere. He didn't tell me where they are. Is that where? >> Yeah. Is that where you dropped her off at? >> Do what? >> Oh, okay. All right. Hey, they dropped her off at the gambling place by AT&T. Uh, Kimberly Green. All right. Am I okay to go? >> Well, not yet. >> I want to get your name. >> All right. What's your first name? >> All right. So, you guys just waiting for her to come back? >> Well, I was going to call her and just go to wherever she was, but Okay. >> Um I don't I'm not I've been waiting on her all day trying to find her and we got stuff to do. >> Sure.

Um, well, she came up here with us last night and stayed and then um we're taking her back to so >> Oh, okay. >> I don't know what I just >> Yeah. Yeah. What's your phone number, Stephanie? What was she wearing? >> Uh, I think like a brown jacket, right? No, she changed it. Brown jacket. It could have been in a vest. Brown vest. >> I thought she had a green hoodie on at first. >> Did she have a backpack or No, >> a small one. A small >> Okay. What color is that? >> Like a dark gray inside. >> All right. Good. >> At first, it seemed that the people in this car had nothing to do with the case and were merely being used. But after officers spoke with store employees, they uncovered additional leads >> with the tote right now. Had another card in here probably an hour ago filled with stuff over 500 or over $400 worth of stuff. >> She was nervous in apparel. >> Ah, okay. >> Um, so this if there's anything in that tote, then it's stolen because she does a transaction that never opens the tote. Our girl that we stopped that ran from us has $311. >> Yes. >> Well, we got her at Lucy's place. I just I just got to figure out >> dropped her off. >> They did hide. >> Looking for looking for him. >> Can you guys go over there to look in the vehicle? Okay. >> I'm going to bring one of the guys over to look in the van. Hey advised to cancel. That was the only reason. >> Okay. >> So, there is $311 worth of stuff in your van. >> Yeah. So, we need >> I know it's mine cuz I don't have >> Okay. Are are we okay to search the van? >> I can get it out for I'll get mine away. So, I don't know. >> Do you mind just going back over to Walmart? >> Yeah. >> So, we can So, we can do it. Yeah, that's fine. >> Okay. Uh, I tell you what, just go ahead and >> Is she going to be >> No, she'll go to jail. >> Yeah. Okay. So, when when you pull up >> on the grocery side, >> Yeah. >> just pull up in front of the building and I'll park right behind you. I won't turn my lights on. >> Okay. >> Okay. Oh, you're >> at another store. Based on all the descriptions gathered, police quickly located the suspect and she appeared completely unaware of what had just happened. >> Hi there. >> Who just came in? Female black hair. Hey, Kimberly. Hi there. >> Excuse me. >> Sorry. >> What's your name? >> Huh? >> What's your name? >> Why? What's going on? >> Kimberly. >> No. >> Go ahead and step up. >> Why wasn't there grab your soda? >> Yeah. Do you need a cash out or something? What's going on? >> Don't go anywhere. >> I'm not I'm sitting right here. I'm just getting a cigarette. >> What's your name? >> My name is Kim. >> Yes. Okay. So, that that wasn't hard, was it? >> No, it wasn't, sir. I just didn't I just didn't know what was going on. >> Okay. So, why do you think we need to talk to you? I have no idea. >> Just at Walmart, >> huh? Yeah. >> What happened at Walmart? >> Well, I was in there and I was buying some stuff and then um the guy some guy came up to me and asked me said something about not paying for something or something, but I have money to pay in my purse. >> Gotcha. Can I see that? You can go ahead and set that soda down. Do you want to put that sweatshirt on? >> Yes, do so. >> Thank you. Can I have a cigarette, please? >> We'll get to that. >> Okay. Oh, it's stupid is what I did. It was really stupid. >> I'm not sure what that is yet, but at this point, they want to see you over there. So, I'm going to take you take you back here. McGomery 126. Fourth gear 135 is a female detained or 125. There was no direct admission of her actions, but she did not deny them either. She was then taken to Walmart's loss prevention office where she still showed no sign of remorse. >> Trying to figure out the other two. >> Was your friend here to steal, too? >> I can pay for the stuff there. >> Is your friend here to steal, too? I need to ask you some questions. This lady right here. That's a lot of right there. >> Hey, I got the van out here if you want to. >> We trespassing you today. So that means you can't come to any Walmart across the country. Includes the van clubs, parking lots, and the gas stations. And if you're caught on or in any of those places, you can be sent to jail for criminal trespassing. Okay. >> I got a question. Okay. I just took I don't know if I took that wrong or you said you're making me trespassing or you're putting me to where I am trespassing if I come back. >> You're being trespassed. >> You're being banned today. >> So after you leave here, >> if you come back, you're criminally trespassing. >> Okay. I'm sorry. I didn't understand that. Sorry. But yeah, even if you don't sign it, it'll still go into effect. >> I'll sign it. Yeah. I'm so I'm sorry you guys. It was really stupid of me and I was with some people and I should not have done it. >> Before we got to this point. >> Yeah. Oh, I know it. But I just want to tell you guys stand up for a second. >> At the same time, police returned to the van outside to recover the items the woman had taken. It could be said that the inside of the vehicle was astonishing. All right. This door right here, I can't reach inside your car and get is there's stolen stuff inside the tote. Like, don't waste my time, >> man. That's a yes. That's a yes. >> I'll go in. >> Okay. Pressing charges on just just grab that out of there. >> Okay. So, where's all this stuff? Where's all of >> Kimber uh Kimberly stuff? You have some of it. Well, this like I said, this is the only >> We have a woman that she [clears throat] put some stuff in. >> Okay, you want that I know of. >> My purse has stayed in the van. So, >> cuz I took a little >> I'll go in and pay for this. >> It's just some shirt. >> Go ahead. >> And it you need to come back for anything. >> I will go in and pay. >> Negative. So, he has to add that up first. I can't I please have a drink of soda. It's in that tote right there. I just bought it. I can't give you anything. >> Okay. All right. >> All right. Is this yours? >> Yeah. We got um >> All right. That should be in your van. Yeah, cuz that has nothing to do with anything going on here. >> Okay. >> So, they take it back out from >> Yeah. Can I search it? >> Has nothing going on with >> Sure. Before I zipped it up, there was new items in here >> from Walmart that we bought. No, that was stuff that we bought. >> The woman clearly displayed suspicious behavior by refusing to allow her bag to be searched. And once it was inspected, it became easy to understand why she had done so. I told her long as there's no needles, it's going to move. >> Yeah, that I have no idea. I mean, [clears throat] I know she does, but I don't. >> Is that the boyfriend? >> Tyrone, >> I think so. >> Huinskiny. >> Is it okay? I'm glad it's marked. It's labeled very well. Do you need this? >> Oh, yes I do. >> So, they're adding up your tote here right now. >> And as long as it's not over $300 something dollars. >> Oh my god. I mean, it's probably I hope not. >> I mean, everything's gone up. So, >> pay for it. No. Yeah, sorry. We get asked that all the time. >> Fortunately, no additional stolen items were found hidden. But based on what they uncovered, police reached their final conclusions. >> Her purse. >> Okay. >> Okay. I've informed her that she can get in trouble for illegal transportation of cannabis by a passenger. Okay. >> If the cop searches this. Okay. Okay. All right. She would like this back in the van. Okay. So, your total was 80. Okay. So, that's under felony amount. I find it funny that you're you're happy about underfelony amount. Okay. So, what I'm going to do is I'm going to go out to my squad. I'm going to type out an arrest without warrant sheet. I'm going give it to you. There'll be a court date on it and everything. Okay. You still have her license. >> No, she can have that. Just make it easier. >> I go out to the van and wait >> as soon as we're done. Yeah, you can come to the van and wait for me to give you that stuff and then >> Okay. That is my mom. That's why I got her license and stuff because well, >> this is her wallet. You >> sure? Do you mind? They're inside out, so you won't you won't get anything on you. >> I did send you. >> The suspect was convicted of retail theft, while the other suspects face no further charges. Take responsibility for your actions. Attempting retail theft may seem minor, but it leads to lasting legal consequences. While honesty and accountability can prevent a situation from escalating further. Next, the woman believed that stealing was somehow allowed under her own law. >> Dollars they stole from me this morning. They think I'm dumb, dude. Ignorant. >> On September 16th, 2025, police received a report of a theft after the victim allowed a female guest to stay temporarily at his private residence. Let's see exactly what the victim reported missing when officers arrived on the scene. >> All right, so what's going on? >> So, I let this girl stay here. She's only been here two or three days. She doesn't live here. >> Okay. >> I get up this morning. My wallet's missing off the table. I confront her about it. She flips the out. First thing she asked me what uh she says what she said. She says, "Uh, what wallet was it? Black or brown?" I tell it was brown. And then she starts flipping out and then she walks out the door, starts banging around, screaming and yelling. Took off that way first and then started going that way. >> Okay. All right. Well, the other officer is out with her. So, >> all right. >> Did Did it get physical? >> No, never. >> Okay. >> Nobody ever touched anybody. >> Okay. >> That's why I called the non-emergency number. Okay. >> So, >> but she took your she took your brown was it a brown wallet? >> Brown wallet. >> Okay. >> There wasn't much money in it. Okay. >> Now, I don't think she's in her right mind, >> okay? >> And I'm not just saying that. I'm She's >> Thus, chaos erupted between the homeowner and the guest, even though he had allowed her to stay out of compassion. >> The reason how she started staying here is they called me from the hospital. Her sister told me that she had pneumonia and that they took her to the hospital. I still let her come over. It's probably my mistake. They had told me that she had pneumonia and that she was raped. That's why I let her come. They asked me if she if she could have a safe place to stay for a couple days. >> I said, "Okay." And here we are. >> Okay. All right. Do you want her? Do you want to press charges against her for steal? >> She has my wallet on her. Absolutely. >> All right. All right. All right. I'm going to I assume you don't want her back here either. >> All right. >> If I can, I'd like to trespass. Okay. >> I didn't have no neighbors and Yeah. >> All right. We'll go we'll go talk to her and see if we can find your wallet for you. All right. You're welcome. >> She had a bag that she threw on my bed and told me to check. >> She take it with her. >> No. So, she still got >> You want us to take the bag so she doesn't have any? >> I will give it to her. >> You did a big check over. Make sure that No. >> Yes. >> Is she any relation to you at all? >> No, she's a FIX. I'm Fisk. >> Okay. I didn't notice the names are close, but she she's not >> anything. It's just >> her dad was like two years ago and she started having a rough time. I heard through, you know, heard about it through her sisters and whatnot. And then when they called, I was like, "Okay, she can stay here." Cuz like I said, they told me that she had pneumonia and that she was raped and things like that. And I was like, "Yeah, she can have a safe place here for a couple days." After receiving the suspect's bag from the victim, officers coincidentally spotted her wandering nearby. The moment they approached, she immediately realized what was unfolding. >> Here's her belongings. Can I Can I look through it to make sure there's the wallet's not in it? >> What do you mean? So, you got this stuff out of his house, right? >> He brought it to me. Yeah. >> And he said that I stole his wallet. >> He says you stole his wallet. And he says you knew what color it was when he questioned you about it. He can take his take my back, but he's not going to plant anything in my bag cuz his little girlfriend do all the time. >> I don't care. I don't believe that. You guys aren't going to open that up and be like magically appear wallet. That's not how it works. >> All right. >> That's not how it works. So, if you guys want to like I don't know. You guys have you have like an office or something somewhere where you guys can keep that for me. >> No, we're not keeping it. That's >> okay. Will you give it to me so I can take it? >> You guys would go through my stuff. >> You're not free to go though. >> For what? What? You guys detain? You got to check for something first. >> For what? You guys want What are you looking for? >> One more spot for the wallet. >> Quit being extra, dude. Be straight forward. Please. >> I'm being straightforward with you. >> Okay. Why am I still being detained while we already with him? There's no over there, bro. >> No, dude. Be ignorant. I know where the I'm at, dude. I know. >> The dishonesty was clear when the woman tried to dodge the bag search, even boldly claiming that the police were the ones who should have feared her. >> Stop me because you're scared. Stop, dude. You guys got to let me go. You're like them, dude. You guys got to stop doing that. Rob, >> we're checking to make sure. >> You guys only want to check on me, though. >> That's a problem, dude. I don't care. >> So, now he's going to go over there. This goofy ass shitty. Nobody get paid for it. I hope they know that. >> He He doesn't want you back at the apartment either. >> I didn't want to be there in the first place. >> All right, then. How'd you end up there? dictated cuz that's your buddy. >> I'm not I don't even know. >> I've never met him before. So, >> right on [ __ ] So, he looks badass. He's a bro. >> All right. I've never met him. So, I don't have a clue who he is. >> I don't care who he is or who he used to be or who he is today. I don't give a You don't scare me. >> All right. He just said that he was trying to be nice to you and his your sister got you a place to stay. >> Oh, yeah. How he talk to my sister? H,000 they stole from me this morning. >> They think I'm dumb, dude. Ignorant. That's why I talk about out loud because otherwise if I don't, they're going to keep doing it. They think I'm stupid, dude. I watched do it. >> At that point, officers searched her bag. As expected, the result came as no surprise. Yet, what stood out was that her confrontational attitude never changed. Find whichever one he wants to. >> What color is his wallet? >> Brown. >> Just like I told you guys that he was going to do whose pictures are in it. You guys think this go right? You guys dead, bro. >> Game on. I hope you get scared. Grow up. >> Just got your handcuffs, dude. on may come out. >> All right, let's walk back to this car. This way. You see your arms? >> I I ped her down. I didn't fully 100% search her. She's got That's weed. There's a hit. >> This is illegal as you're not a girl digging all over me. I'm charging you. I hope you know that, Mr. M. Brown. It's >> not illegal. >> It is illegal. Well, it's against the law. The American law. I know my laws. >> Nope. Jefferson, >> I am. All right. >> You deserve me for what? >> Cuz you're under arrest. >> All right. What am I under arrest for? >> No, I'm not. Somebody's got to cheat now. >> Let's go. >> You hear me? You're going to take me to jail. >> You're done. You know that, right, Mr. Bro? >> All right. >> She claims she knew her own laws. And apparently those laws allowed her to take someone else's wallet and even hurl insults at peaceful police officers. >> Yep, you guys did it. Look that way for me. >> You're so dumb, dumb. Oh, the whole world, dude. Watch. It's over, bro. Illegal. Yeah, it's okay, dude, cuz Illinois lifted law today. I get the free. So, guess what? You're taking me the home now.

But I promise you, you [ __ ] sucking motheruckers don't want to listen to me. Who gives a bro? I didn't steal nothing. I didn't have nothing. I [ __ ] put his wallet in my gave it to the cops for the cops to give to me to chase me down the street to check the bag. It's okay. So now I've been arrested for it. Can you believe that? >> In the end, she was convicted of theft under $500. Personal beliefs about knowing the law do not override actual laws, and confrontational behavior can turn a simple incident into a criminal conviction. Even worse, this employee repeatedly shocked by the very crimes she'd committed. >> Oh my god. >> Can you stand up? I'm going to jail. Jesus Christ. Wait till my Oh, goodness. This is really happening to me. >> On November 30th, 2024, police responded to a report involving a female Macy's employee who had abused her position to carry out suspicious [music] activity. To be more specific, store management explained exactly how it happened. >> She loaded multiple gift cards. >> Okay. >> No cash. 10 cash multiple times. She did today. >> Okay. Um she load her gift card for $250 cash as cash. No cash to register. Um she also admitted to that that video in any previous applications. >> Um today and and then she used one of the gift cards. >> Okay. >> Um obviously the one today she didn't use I have it she had in her possession. She brought upstairs. She got it out of her purse and handed it to me. >> Okay. That card has a value of 250 on it. >> 250. >> So, when did you guys notice that she was doing the gift card? >> Uh, yesterday. >> So, yesterday she loaded a gift card. >> Actually, no. Uh, on the 27th, which was Wednesday, she loaded two, both for $150 each. She utilized one on the transaction for herself >> and each of them were 250. >> Uh two were were 150.

All from gift card theft. At that point, the suspect was confronted and faced the consequences of her actions. >> Hello. Hi. >> Oh, hi. How are you doing? >> Good. How are you? >> Good. Do you have your driver's license on you, ma'am? >> Yeah. >> What do we got so far? Um, so so far she they started on the 27th, so she laid it loaded two gift cards with 150 and she used one of them and she kept the other one. And today she loaded a gift card for 250 and she didn't get a chance to use them and they wanted her charges. >> They want press charges. >> Yes. >> Okay. She's behind. >> Oh, what? Stand up for me, please. Oh my god. Can you stand up? I'm going to jail. >> Yes, ma'am. Stand up. >> Stand up. >> Oh my god. Can I call my cousin? Just one second. Just Oh my god. >> Can I need you?

Oh my goodness. We just have to do our investigation, ma'am. Okay. >> Yeah, it's normal prosecuting. You've been committed a crime. So, [music] it might be just you might be released on the notice to appear. She allowed her to appear in front of the court for a judge on a predetermined date and time. >> I know, but I've never >> The woman was clearly surprised by the situation, but it was evident that she knew she'd committed a wrongful act. >> Okay. So, are you able to explain to me why we're here today in the office? >> Yes, because I um I loaded some I loaded two gift cards. Um yeah. >> And what were you going to do with the gift cards? >> Um probably buy stuff here. >> Buy stuff here. >> Okay. >> And did anybody force you to do this or you did it on your own? On >> my own. So, like my um supervisor said that we're probably going to um give you a court date. You're going to get NTA. Um just so you able to stay with her to get the clothes. >> So, what are you thinking, girl? >> Honestly, it was just the last week. It was last minute stuff, holidays, >> Christmas coming up. You're like, "Yeah, trying to shave a few points off the cost of other things." And >> the woman called it a mistake, yet allowed it to happen over several consecutive days. She even believed that the matter might not require police involvement. >> Have you healed me? He made everything seem cool. I mean, I would have told the truth regardless, but I didn't know any of this was happening. This took me for a surprise, which is why I kind of panicked a bit. At the end of the day, you know, the thing is like employee theft or people stealing, you know, their business. At the end of the day, they lose money and people get away with so much stuff. You know, people taking money, taking taking clothes and running out the store, you know, they get tired of it after a while. And it's like, you might be a nice person with nice intentions, but at the end of the day, it's like they're like, you know, you took and they're going to prosecute. So, so kind of >> So, what would this be like in court? >> Well, paying something back. >> You could you could they could they could instill some kind of restitution against you. Um like whether paying back the the cost of what you what the store lost plus court fees and all this stuff. So, it could cost you more than what you actually end up taking. >> Okay. >> Or they if it's up to them. They'll decide. It's up to what the victim wants to do what they're what they want in return. But you know, but like say example, you don't show up to court, then now they're going to issue a warrant for your arrest. Now you're really going to spend time in jail. >> As the conversation continued, the police explained what she would face. Despite this, she remained surprised by the consequences of her own actions. >> There's a possibility you might have a warrant. >> A warrant? >> Mhm. >> How? >> I don't know yet. That's what I'm finding out. So when I hear back from the other officer comes back, I'll find out what those So that's why I ask you if those tickets were sorted because if if they weren't, then there might be there might be an issue. But if it's sorted out, then we'll be back to the original plan. >> What's the 10:35? >> Um, it's for um to appear. I think they're on shoplifting, but they're trying to confirm it [laughter] now. >> Oh, okay. >> Yeah. >> Is that not traffic? >> Trafficking. Trafficking >> for me. It's trafficking >> for traffic for trafficking or like trafficking 57 or just trafficking >> traffic offenses. >> Trafficking that's what they said. >> So what was the method of uh how they how they catch her? >> Um they have surveillance camera catching her doing that >> camera over the registers. >> Mhm. To be clear, the woman had a prior failure to appear charge related to a traffic offense. So, she worried that this incident would add another crime to her record. >> After this, what shows up on my record on a background check? >> Um, you'll likely have arrest records going to show scheme of fraud and petty theft. >> There's two things that happen. once the the act of taking them a card, a gift card and over systematically using it a couple times to defraud a place of the of money, right? And then the other actions when you used the card and took the and then used that money that was not yours >> to buy. So there's two things. You got it. Okay. >> I'm going to take you down to the station. >> Oh, you still want to jail? >> Yes, ma'am. Can you call my cousin? >> Um, you can have a phone call. Um, when you get up >> and we get there, we'll go to jail. >> Can you just tell me what's going on? >> I just explained it to you. >> No, I know, but you just said that I would probably be able to go home if So, what's the >> But the problem is is because you use the gift cards and you did it more than one time and so you so it becomes an additional charge. It's not just the petty theft. It's the fraud. >> I have the gift card. >> Yeah. But you already use one of the cards. So you use But I have one in there that's not used. >> Where's the other gift card at? >> It's in there. >> Yeah, but he said you loaded three cards. >> So you use one of them. So the other two, I'll give it back. I'm giving back. It's right there. >> The woman still failed to grasp the seriousness of the situation. Or perhaps she simply could not believe it was real. >> No way that I cannot be sitting in jail right now. >> Oh, I mean >> and getting papers. This should have been thought about before you did the action here, >> which is >> which is true. And you admitted to and I give you and I give you credit for at least acknowledging that and then accepting ownership of that, but there's also still consequences for what happened. >> These just don't go these just don't go away. >> I know these things just don't go away on their own. There's a process. Okay. >> Okay. Can you at least write my cousin's number down? Cuz I know when I if I go there, I'm going to be calling off a pay phone and not my phone. I don't know his number. >> We'll we'll we'll accommodate that when we get to the station cuz we still got to go to the station. She's going to process you and then you're going to get booked. She's going to take you up to the county jail. You're going to get booked in there and you'll you'll wait around to your first appearance. >> Jesus Christ. Wait till my Oh goodness. God, >> this is really happening to me. >> Sorry if I'm explaining things, but she's new explaining things how things done. >> So, it's a learning process, too. So, >> do you have anything that can poke me? In the end, the woman Jada Alexis was charged with petty theft and organized scheme to defraud.

You sure he smells drugs? Check. Okay. Good boy. Any drugs on the car? No, sir. >> Any drugs on? >> Not that you're aware of. Any on you? >> Any on her? >> Uh, say no. >> Okay. So, is there anything in there? Uncapped needles? Anything like that is going to hurt them, poke them? Okay.

There's like some pink something. >> What's this pink thingy? >> What do you think that pink thing is? >> Looks like a rolled up piece of paper of some sort, but there might be something in it.

On August 19th, 2023, police received a report from a shopping center about a woman caught shoplifting, and it was revealed this was not her first offense.

Uh, it's not her first time either here. >> Yes, I have her. Is she on the band? >> Uh, actually, we just in the car. We actually just researched it this past couple days, so I don't think we even had a chance to call it in. But I have her on five other occasions stealing up to $340. Today was another $92. >> Okay. Do you have the DVDs from the other ones? >> I can go look if Well, I don't have LP here with me today, so let me go look see if they burned them for you. If not, I can definitely uh get that put together, but I just happen to have her in the building and Okay, >> just so you guys know, my camera's on, too. Okay, that's fine. But uh I did catch her with $94 of stuff walking out the entrance door. >> What's your name? >> Do you have ID on you? times and totals for the I'll go I'll take them upstairs right now real quick. >> He caught her walking out with 90 something dollars worth of stuff today. Um they have a flyer on it cuz she's been doing other ones and he said he doesn't even think they reported it to us yet. So >> I might have him already burned, but I'm not yet. I guess I don't know how she f >> go up with him and then we'll >> to further verify all statements, the police together with the store employee reviewed historical surveillance footage which helped solidify the evidence for the case file. Today is 8:19. [music] >> [music] >> just done it five times. Yeah. Here she comes going out that door. >> Yep. And then that's where I stopped her right here and I push her back in. According to the report, this incident marked the seventh time the woman committed the same offense. Perhaps accustomed to encounters with the police, she still showed no sign of remorse during this incident. All right. So, we're not going to cuff you here in front of everybody. We'll bring you out to the car and you can call your husband, let him know, too. All right. >> We're going to go back to the station. >> Okay. >> But we're being polite. We're not going to >> Which means you're going to be just as polite with us. >> Oh, I'm not good. I'm not good. [music] >> Okay. So, from outside. So, you want to call your husband or whoever and let him know what's going on? >> We're going to go to the station. >> Clearly, the woman carried herself with a more polished demeanor than a typical shoplifter. Even with those sunglasses, she offered excuses to avoid removing them. >> I have a horse. That's why I came back or I have allergies. Thank you. >> I don't blame him. >> What happens if he doesn't want to pick me up? >> Then we'll drive you home. >> It's right next door. It's not going over the uh All right. Appreciate guys. He's going to handcuff you, okay? Until we get back to the station. >> You really didn't really do anything. >> The rules. [music] And if he did do something and we didn't follow the rules, we'd be in trouble. Tears fell, not from remorse for her actions, but from her fear of being handcuffed. She was then taken to the police station to continue with the remaining procedures. >> Okay. All right. Step over here. Is that too tight? >> Yeah, except my first step on my foot. >> Is that better? >> Yeah. >> All right. So, she's got shoplifting out of Jersey City in 2001. Shoplifting out of Byron in 2018. shoplifting on a vir 2008 after I asked her.

No. >> No. I said Yeah. >> Go ahead. What did you tell me? >> I said no. This Okay. Go ahead. >> Yeah. Jersey City and twice in Byron. So now we know she's been arrested twice here. What do we do? Arrest course. There might there should be an MC section. Oh, three times inv. That's That's trespassing cuz she was told she wasn't allowed back there and she must have went back.

So, we don't need this. >> You only need what? >> Take this off. On March 4th, 2022, officers were dispatched to a convenience store after reports of a woman attempting to steal from the premises. When they arrived, they immediately noticed the suspect's strange and unsettling behavior. >> Welcome me to the store so I can come to you about this. See, >> why don't you come talk to us outside about whatever's going on here? What are >> you doing? You can come. You can walk right out. Oh, one more. And I came to the store to buy some candy and she locked me in there. >> In here? >> Yeah. >> Did you buy the candy? >> She wouldn't let me. >> Why would she let you buy the candy? >> She thinks I'm stealing. >> Did you have money to pay for the candy? >> Yeah. >> So, why would you think you're stealing? And I see you got money in your pocket. >> Yeah. Yeah, but >> were you guys having issues when you walked in? >> Not at all. >> The woman insisted that she was the one being wronged, but the story quickly shifted in another direction once officers spoke with the employee. >> Too a lot of time there, right? >> Okay. >> She opened the door. I I went there to see just what she's doing. The refrigerator was open. She take two Red Bulls, right? And she was standing here. She grabbed she she grabbed these two chocolates in front of me. I came back. So she said she she tried to run away, right? She said me take this one chocolate. Take uh I am going I have taken only this one chocolate. I said no you have taken all the things from here. So why you are telling you have taken you have to pay me for for two things are in her hand bread and these two chocolates right? So she is paying for me like she's stealing and she's running away. I said her why you are doing like that she's covering her face also totally she's covering her face so she she's telling me like that I said I said just stay why you are doing like that so she said no I have all the things in my hand already I said I I didn't see you when you came inside you were not having anything why you will buy only one chocolate from here when you are already you are having three things in your hand why you will come only for this one >> so she said she was going to pay for that >> she said uh only I have I have taken this one from here. >> So everything the suspect held in her hands turned out to be unpaid items from the store. Nothing belonged to her and the only thing she truly carried was her own deception. >> I just if I came by the candy, y'all set me free already. >> Hm. >> You set me free already. I was locked in the store. Thank you. >> Yeah, but they also called to say you were trying to steal from them. So we're not done looking into whatever >> they call you after I called you. >> I'm not sure. I don't take the calls. I just go to >> Oh. So, did you come out here and then lock the door or something or? >> Yeah. Yeah, I I just stand here and uh I just lock the door and uh I just call you then. >> All right. So, she she said she was >> only had that one and she was going to pay for that one, but she had everything else in her hand. >> She had everything else in her hand. >> So, these all stuff are from our store. So, I said if you uh just show show me where you buy that one. >> No, no, no, no. I can only pay for that one. I have only buy sheets and cheese. Do you want her arrested? Do you want her banned from here? >> What do you what do you want to do? >> No. If she has taken the stuff, right? Uh whatever she has taken, she has to pay for that one because I am working here. So that's why the reason is that. >> So you went in there and you looks like you bought some Red Bulls. >> Not >> you had those from somewhere else. >> I have these. >> Okay. >> I go in look at candy. I wouldn't eat it. >> Mhm. >> But >> instead, she tasted >> Okay. So, she took you. So, you didn't eat anything. You didn't open anything. >> From the woman's evasive behavior to her slow, dragging way of speaking with officers. Everything only deepened their suspicion. They began to wonder whether something else had been influencing her. >> Are you okay? Are are you experiencing any mental health issues today, Lauren? >> I'm under attack. >> What' you say? >> I'm under attack. >> You're under attack. >> I'm under attack. >> Okay. What does that mean? >> I tried to get some candy. >> Okay. >> Mhm. >> Okay. Well, when my boss is done talking to them inside, we'll have, you know, >> I mean, I don't have the candy. >> Mhm. >> So, what is it that Well, I have the candy. I just can't grab it. >> I don't That's This is why I'm confused. I guess you're saying that you went to grab candy and you're going to pay for it. And then I don't Then that's where I'm confused. I What else happened in there? >> So, she has one Red Bull open cuz the other one's not open. I can see it from here. >> She opened that one in store. >> Okay. And so if she can't pay for it, what do you want? >> Uh I needed a case against you because I needed the money back. That's all because it's been happening several times. So uh last two time customer I let them go. So this time uh it is happening sir. So I need to pay. If she's not paying I would like to go for a case. >> Okay. All right. And then you want her banned from the store? >> Yes, also. Okay. >> And that was exactly what the store wanted the woman to face after her actions. Meanwhile, the suspect remained completely unaware, still believing every part of the story she had created for herself. >> I knew that from in there. >> I couldn't buy anything. >> We're not getting a lot of sense. >> Yeah. >> I couldn't buy anything. I couldn't buy anything. She wouldn't let me. >> Okay. She says she wants you if you pay for your >> I got these walk with me to the same store. >> She She said they they said you came in here with with nothing in your hands. >> What? Look at the camera. >> Okay. Where did you get those from? >> Walk with me. >> No. Tell me where you got them from. >> I said the store. >> What store? >> The store. >> So if you want to pay for your one Red Bull. >> I didn't know. I already had these. >> Then they don't want to. They don't want to press charges. >> You're not free to go. You're not free to go. >> I already had these. Y'all not doing that to me. I already have. >> Lauren, stop. Let's just have a conversation. >> Okay. I don't want this to spill on me. >> Okay. So, please let it go. >> Stop. Lauren, stop. >> Why are you doing this? >> Drop everything out your hands right now. Don't Don't fight me. I'm telling you, you won't win. Don't do it. Don't fight me. >> Okay, I'm not fighting. >> Okay, I'm not fighting. >> I'm telling you. >> Stop tensing up on me. >> I'm not. >> Listen to what I'm telling you. Okay, give her your hand. >> Perhaps the woman was obsessed with playing the victim. From initially accusing the store of attacking her to the moment everything was uncovered, she escalated into even more erratic actions toward the officers. >> Stop going away. Stop. >> Hey, I'm recording this. I have a Hey, >> stop. >> She's not going anywhere. We'll pull the sleeve up. Turn around to her side. I think she's having some kind of mental break or something. >> No, >> I'm You want me to call for a 1050? She's got like scratches on her neck and she's got blood on her mouth and I don't know what's really what's going on. >> Call the >> Would you rather stay like this or sit up? >> I need a black doctor. >> Okay, there is one right here. >> I don't have blood on my mouth. Why she seeing blood on my mouth? You robbing me? >> No, I'm not robbing you, Lauren. Just checking your pockets for any weapons. >> Look, I got something in my pocket to protect me so I don't get Don't me for it. All right, >> you got it. >> Although things seem to spiral further out of control, it appeared this was exactly what the woman wanted, believing she might gain some civil rights benefits from being in this situation. >> And then this is where we're at, Lauren. >> Gross. If I'm going to the hospital, I like to choose it. >> We're not saying that >> cuz now y'all trying to say I'm mentally ill. >> Oh, you're acting like you might. >> Well, this isn't normal behavior. >> We were willing to go talk to the store where you got you're saying you got your >> walk with me. >> We don't we don't do walk with me. You're going to have to tell us where it was and you didn't want to do that store. >> There's quite a few of those in this town, >> you know. So, you know, I paid for it. They already say they said you came in here without it. >> Who said the lady who locked me in the store? I called you and you arrested me. >> You're a police officer. >> Am I under the arrest? >> Yes. >> Okay. So, we don't need this. >> You don't need what? >> Take this off. >> It's up to you. I'm only doing it again cuz you asked me to. >> Take it off. >> The woman was ultimately charged with theft and resisting arrest. Attempting to deceive and resist authorities only worsens the outcome. Honesty and cooperation can prevent legal consequences from escalating. Next, these girls had the guts to steal. Yet, they couldn't bear the responsibility that came [music] with it. >> We are two young girls trying to make it out the hood. >> We literally got stuff in that cart to resell because I've been out of work lately cuz I've been sick. >> On November 11th, 2024, officers were dispatched to a Target store in Florida after receiving reports of a theft that had already taken place. The suspects were believed to be two teenage girls. And the moment officers arrived, the girls stood casually at the storefront, completely unaware that the police were already right behind them. >> Hi. Why don't you come inside? >> Thank you. >> I need to have your >> You don't have to grab me. I will cooperate anything you want. You don't have to be aggressive. >> I'm not being aggressive. >> Okay. Back up. Back up. Back up. All right. Come on. >> Hi. Come on. Excuse me. Sorry. Thank you. Okay. Go ahead and uh sit down and see your back. >> Thank you. Thank you. >> Is your ID in these? >> Yeah. >> From the way they looked at each other to the way they cooperated and followed [music] the officers, it was clear they already knew exactly what had happened. At that moment, the police began pulling out the items they had hidden inside their bags. What is my office? Can I get it? Thank you, ma'am. Your ID went in here. Do you have it? >> Yeah, I have it. >> Where's it at? >> In my car. >> Okay. All right. So, this one Hey, I have more stuff right here. Oh yeah. >> Hey, this y this is open. >> All right. This one was in the pink purse, which was hers. >> And then this one was in the black one, and that one is that one. Yeah. And then the joint one will be >> Yeah. >> So receipt. >> Okay. >> So what should I do right now as far as letting my family know? >> I'll let them know or you can call them, whatever. But you're going to jail. >> Okay. >> This was the one thing neither of them had expected and their confusion only grew, replacing the earlier look of indifference they had shown. Well, let's let's once again let me first go over some few things right first. >> What should I where am I going exactly? >> One second. Um, give me a second. We'll go through everything. Okay, just wait on calling them. That makes it easier. So, you're 20. >> All right. What's your first name? Jayen. >> Spell it. >> J A Y L E N E. >> Okay. Last name. >> Santiago. S A I A. >> Okay. Middle initial. Middle name. >> A. >> What's your middle name? >> Just A. >> Oh, no. It's A. A M A R. >> M A A R I. Okay. >> Huh. What's your date of birth? >> No, I don't have it yet. >> And what's your address, J? >> I don't really have a set address right now. >> Where do you sleep at night? Where would you get mail? The two girls stayed fairly cooperative and tried to appear calm during the questioning. Meanwhile, one of them kept trying to reach a family member, but that calm quickly collapsed the moment the call was answered. >> Hello. >> Yes. >> 33, can you signal 39? I have two in custody. >> Is it 33. Can you recclassify? This is signal 39. I have in custody. I know. Yes, I know. But Megan has to make a call. >> Is this address still correct? Megan, is this address still correct? >> What's your current address? >> Yes. What? >> Jaylen, you do have a driver's license. How did you get here today? >> You drive. Okay. So, it's your vehicle. Okay. What vehicle do you have? >> Okay. Wait. Police didn't ask any questions. Okay. >> What vehicle did you drive in? >> I'm going to let you know. >> Sorry. What was your question? What vehicle did you drive in? >> It's a 2013 Hyundai Elantre. >> What color? >> Like brown goldish. >> Brown gold. >> All right, I'm going to read you guys some. >> In that same wave [music] of panic, the woman went on to reveal the entire reason behind why this encounter had happened today. Listen, we are two young girls trying to make it out the hood. >> We literally got stuff in that cart to resell because we both work 9 to5 and it's not working. I have two little ones. They daddy don't even work. Like I'm out here struggling and [snorts] I just and I'm trying to come up with some money because I've been out of work lately cuz I've been sick. Where are you selling the stuff at? >> Just the people whoever buy whoever. >> You sell like in a market on Facebook on >> No, just the like people like we know like hey do you want us handic? >> Okay. So you resell the items. Okay. So you have two girls you're trying to support and their fathers don't two girls or two. >> I have one boy and one girl. >> Okay. And you're trying to support them. And you just found out. Okay. >> Both of them tried to paint themselves as victims desperate to escape poverty, claiming that was why they broke the law. But officers knew this wasn't their first time, and they immediately pressed the two about that detail. >> Can I ask you about what happened last week? You guys know that for >> same reason. >> Same reason. >> Same thing. >> So, do you both admit that you both >> were involved? >> Yes. >> Okay. So, what did we do as in chopping around? What were we doing? >> What do you mean? >> Like you were taking items off. You're putting it into another bag and we both take blame and walking out with both properties. Well, all the property, all all the merch sites in the store. >> Huh? >> You both engage in placing the items into other bags. Correct. >> You mean >> like the merchandise? You took it and put it into other bags and stuff like that. You concealed it and you both take admission to both walking out of the store with the property, both intending to resell the items. Correct. >> Yes. >> Okay. Okay. Sounds good. All right. I'm going to go grab my car right now. >> Can we please not make a scene while I'm coming out in front of people? Because I feel like when you was driving this, you just like a whole scene. I understand we're in trouble, but I don't want to be making feel like >> Yeah. But normally, so you don't understand. Normally people run. So that's why I was catching you guys. Make sure But I wasn't gripping you up. I didn't causing a scene is throwing you on the ground, throwing you up against the wall. Is that correct? Like in the movies where you see it in the movies. We didn't do that. I just made sure I I took hold of you. made sure you didn't try to run off because normally that's what people do when they get caught stealing, especially the mount that you guys have. Okay. Um, give me a sec. >> With everything finally admitted, the decision to take them to jail was unquestionable. One by one, they would have to face the reality of being placed in handcuffs. You have a bra on. No. I can't see the way I'm too bright. >> All right. Go sit down. Sit. Come here. Thank you. I'll get him right back. Take off all your jewelry. >> No. All right. >> Do you want to finish your phone call? >> No. >> Need you to turn your phone off. >> Oh, okay. asking me to turn the phone off. So, so can you guys give me some instructions as to where >> I need to be on the P County jail processing center. >> Go get your phone call >> like real. >> Yep. >> Here I can I need to write down the number >> for what? They could just call the county jail. It's P County Jail. >> But when I make my call, I >> Oh, I can get you a phone number. You're good. What phone number do you want, girl? >> Is it in your phone? >> A different phone in my other phone. It's a different phone. >> You got two phones? Is that what it should be on? >> Finally, they were charged with grand theft under Florida law. This case reminded [music] others that acting calm or making excuses never erased the truth. Taking responsibility always begins long before the police arrive.
