Well, then you I don't know what your promise, but anyway. Where's your >> On May 28th, police received a report about a woman who concealed merchandise while shopping. They immediately arrived at the scene and stopped the suspect as she attempted to flee. But there was still a surprise ahead. >> Hey ma'am, can you stop for a second? You got your ID on you? >> No. >> You don't have an ID in there? >> I don't. >> Hey, HANG ON. >> WHY ARE YOU talking to me? What are you doing to me? >> All right. >> Please let me go. >> Stop.

Get that. >> The act of begging to pay indirectly admitted her wrongdoing, but everything was already too late and the police did not allow it to happen. >> Well, too late, hun. Please. Nope. Why? >> Oh, this is too tight. >> I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'll pay for everything. >> Make sure to check your fit. That's loose. >> Stand her up. >> Yep. >> I'll take a hold on. >> Give a sec.

Only took the ground. >> We're going to document it. >> Misdemeanor. >> Isn't that correct? >> It's a misdemeanor. >> 521 depends on if you've done it before. >> Okay. For everything. >> Is not allowed. >> No, we're past that point. She could have paid for everything right there, but she chose not to. By that point, the item she attempted to take had already been identified. >> Yep. >> Can you show all that stuff? >> Wait, whatever. Cuz uh she didn't pay for anything after she paid for some of these. Show me stuff. She did. Yeah. Okay. So, I got Okay. I don't know if you can recognize these things. >> Blue gun.

It says glue gun, but I don't see a blue glue gun anywhere. >> You sure today's 20th? >> Yeah, today's 20th 27th. That's not even on there. That's not >> Yeah. No. So, only one thing blue gun. >> Cool. All right. Yeah. And then her wallet and everything can go in there. Know this paper over here. >> This does she have another receipt on her or no? >> Right. >> No, those are okay. This >> the only receipts you saw, right? >> That amount of evidence made her wrongdoing even clearer. Yet inside the patrol car, she still naively believed she had a chance to change the outcome. >> All right. Hey. Uh, >> I'll have to pay for her. I'll pay for it at least. Right. >> What you need? >> Uh, tell I just need to get her out of the car. So, >> Oh, okay. >> What do we do? >> Can you help me out? Pull her out. >> Get her out of the car. >> Camera's on there cuz I don't have mine on me. >> Okay. I got my camera. >> I got mine on. >> Yeah, mine is recording, too. It hasn't. >> All right. >> All right, ma'am. Can you look at me for a minute? You okay? Any injuries on your face? No, >> look at me for a minute. >> She's got a small laceration on her finger. >> Yeah, I already got that. >> Are they good? >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> He tried to walk away. So, between uh Taylor and Geyser, the driver put her on the ground. Uh his knee hit the ground. >> Great. Geyser's injured, aren't you? Did I just hear an accident? >> No. >> Well, >> as a result, officers were injured due to the woman's attempt to flee. At that point, she was examined by medical staff. Yet, she continued to beg every officer who approached her. >> Pay for it? >> Yeah, you we got the stuff you paid for. It's in the back. >> Can I please pay for everything else? >> Uh, it's too late now. They won't let you do that. We would possibly consider it, but they won't let you. They're the ones charging you here. Well, besides obstruction, now you're getting charged with the battery. >> Yeah. Yeah, I might do that. >> 79 white. >> You guys already have name and everything I can get from y'all or do I need to get from her? >> No, I got it all. you were this close for it to being in felony amount of stuff, which means it's a misdemeanor shoplifting. They're going to, as long as you're cooperative, they're going to take you, you're going to get, you're under arrest, but you're going to get fingerprinted and then they're going to bring you back home to your residence or wherever you live or back to your car. That's because it's a misdemeanor and the draw the jail is an accepted misdemeanor. Otherwise, you'd be going to jail. I I highly suggest if you're paying for stuff and you can't afford the other stuff, don't steal it. >> I can't steal it. >> All right. Okay. Well, then you I don't know what your problem is. But anyway, where's your car? Do you want us to just throw the stuff in your car before we log into the property room? >> Where's your car? >> Over there. >> Is it a BMW? >> Where is it? >> After explaining what she would have to face, the police asked her about the reason behind it, but it was fair to say that her explanation was hardly acceptable. >> All right. So, tell me what happened. >> I was just trying to catch up on everything my boyfriend has stolen from me. my ex-boyfriend. >> All right. >> I had a restraining order that I filed last year and he broke into all of my storage and stole 90% of the stuff that I had gotten packed up out of the house and the police did nothing about it. >> So, you were trying to recover your tool the tools that your ex-boyfriend stole. Right. >> Right. And I'm not allowed to go near him. >> All right. because I filed a restraining order. >> He stole thousands of dollars of stuff from me. I could never catch him on camera, so y'all wouldn't do anything about it. >> So, what happened when when you came out and and the officer saw you? What? What? What happened? >> Grab my purse and my bag and just leave my leave that bag. I was just gonna leave it. >> I was supposed to go. Yeah, but let let's talk about the time, you know, how they put you on the ground. You want to tell me about it? >> I was trying to walk away. >> Yeah. So, you have you done yet? >> The woman herself admitted that she had attempted to flee. Yet, she remained completely naive in believing that such an action did not warrant the response she received from the police. >> Anything else you want to tell me? Or do you have any questions for me? >> Well, how are they allowed to put their hands on me? the off. Well, once you once you get arrested, when once the officer tells you to stop, you should have stopped. >> All they asked me for was ID and I grabbed my purse and my bag and I started walking. >> All right. >> And they took me to the ground. >> Yes, ma'am. That's because you were observed stealing from uh or taking the stuff from uh the Home Depot by their loss prevention. >> That's how the probable cause comes. >> No. >> All right, ma'am. Your stuff's about to go in the and we can't find your car. So, your stuff's all going to get logged in. >> Y'all did find the car. Passenger doors only or unlocked. >> Is it the one that's filthy dirty in a SUV and it's like greenish gray? >> Blue. >> Blue. >> SUV. >> Huh? >> SUV. >> She says it's unlocked. >> Not unlock. >> It's not unlock. Huh? >> It is unlocked. The passenger door is the only door that worked. >> The passenger door is the only door that worked. He said >> she was charged with misdemeanor shoplifting, obstruction of law enforcement. Trying to flee or bargain after being caught only made the situation worse. Honesty and cooperation from the start could have prevented far more serious consequences. In the next case, let's meet this shoplifter with her house cleaner crimes. >> It doesn't work that way. >> That's fine. You don't have to hear me. On April 30th, 2024, police received a call from Sam's Club reporting a woman who had taken multiple items and immediately left. Before pursuing the suspect, officers went to the store to investigate the situation. >> We know what was taken back, electronics, a bunch of stuff. Yeah. >> Will you guys be able to look it up on the video or whatnot? >> It was not on 56. Sorry. >> I'm coming. >> Sorry. >> Did you see them walk out? >> Huh? >> Did you you saw them walk out? >> Yeah. >> We have the license plate. Okay. One. >> Okay. Yeah, we got this stuff. >> Yeah, I did. Yeah. If she just put she the one that said, you know, we stand the receipt. She just knocked the door off. You know, the one that's locked. >> She knocked it off and she just walked out for me. Put all the stuff in my car. >> Okay. [music] >> They hit all the car next door. >> Yeah. The car next door. She with the with the car. >> Based on the information provided by the store about 30 minutes later, police immediately located the suspect's vehicle. Let's see what happened next. >> Hey, how's it going? pretty good. I got my CSO coming. I don't know how much stuff they had. >> Six vacuums in there. >> Six vacuums. >> Yeah. >> Okay. They said there's a lot of electronics, but she pushing the car out the door. You can't really tell what's in the loading up, but uh was it just her in there or was there a male in there? >> No, we have a male back there. Female was in the back. >> Oh, your your car. >> Yeah, female in the back. >> Uh male was good cuz they said the male was in the car and it was just her also the she was just the one with the car pushing it out though. So, I probably let cut him loose with the vehicle. But I got my cs coming up to grab all my stuff. So grab some pictures. I think he hasn't expired yet. This one might be male again. Is it So, after officers identified the vacuum boxes in the vehicle, she was taken into custody. At this point, police tried to gather information about her, but it wasn't easy. >> I don't have you have it with you? >> No, I don't have >> Put your feet in there. >> You have insurance with the vehicle? >> I know there should be insurance. >> All right. Where would it be at? Awesome. >> It's all on the front seat. >> You have an idea with that wallet? >> Yeah. Okay. It's a handful. Good. T for Where's your ID? >> Where's your ID? >> Where's your ID? >> Oh, you got his ID. >> No, got his ID, but we gave it back. >> It wasn't in his life, in his wallet. Not what I'm saying. >> This man was deemed completely innocent in the incident and was confirmed to have only been sitting in the car while she fled. However, it seemed the woman didn't want to face it alone. So, she tried to pin the crime on him. >> He knew what I was doing. So, >> was he in the car or was he in the store? >> He's in the car. >> Okay. Well, he didn't do the retail whether he knew or not. >> It doesn't work that way. >> I can't hear it. >> That's fine. You don't have to hear him. on my phone, please. >> Can you help me on my phone, please? Yeah, I was going to get all your guys. >> You guys got business cards? I write it down easier. At this point, police proceeded to recover the items the woman had taken. Those expensive items, making it clear that the value of the loss was significant. >> The truck. >> Yeah, they're not going to fit in the cab. >> Need pictures of this or >> Yeah, I'm going to take a picture. >> I took a few sitting in here and then I'll get some when they put in the truck bed here. Hide out. Meet me at Sam's. >> Or is this going back? It's going to Sam. >> Yeah, it's going to Sam cuz I'm going to need a price for it all. In the end, the woman was charged with shoplifting. Always be honest and take responsibility for your own actions. Cooperating with authorities from the start can reduce penalties and prevent further legal trouble. Even more terrifying, there's no way to predict what these shoplifterss might do. Hey, no. >> He's being kind of weird, but he hands me back full of pills. >> Okay, so I do. >> On December 18th, 2025, police were dispatched to Walmart after receiving reports of a couple committing theft there. Upon arrival, officers collaborated with store staff, waiting outside the entrance for the suspects to appear. Let's go. This way, guys. >> Yeah, probably. Unless you guys did something crazy. You didn't do anything crazy, did you? They should be exactly with charges. >> The suspects had planned to enter one at a time, pretending not to know each other. But once their scheme was uncovered, they continuously exchanged veiled conversations while being escorted, seemingly coordinating something. Come on, guys. Come on, guys. Go. Come here, guys. That's the way it is. Have a seat. You got anything on you I need to know about? Watch your hand in your pocket. It's my >> pat you down real quick. All right. >> Nothing on you was going to poke me, stab me. >> Okay. I see. Nothing on you that I need to know about. piece of [ __ ] in here and [ __ ] >> What's in there? >> Yeah. >> Drive and see for me. Anything else in there I should know about my man? >> After checking the items on their persons, everything initially seemed fairly routine, but the process of questioning the suspects about their information hit a snag. >> What's your name? >> What's up? What's your name? >> Xavier what? >> Because my man, if you don't cooperate, I'm going put you in handcuffs. >> I I'll give you I'll give you my resource. >> I figured that was not right. Well, thank you for that. >> Unless something crazy happened. or not. This is you. >> You did it, too. So, it was on her. >> We watched you walk over and put a item in the bag off the shoulder. 5550. If you notice, the man kept his hands tightly close to his body throughout the process, as if holding something, even when bending down. An extremely suspicious behavior. Soon after, the a horrifying truth was revealed. HEY, NO. Use your hand now. The man did not just pretend. He actually pointed his firearm, but fortunately, no round was discharged. It appeared the woman was fully aware of this, maintaining a calm expression as she fled. At this point, both were taken into custody and the police had drawn their own conclusions about the incident. >> This is something you want BCI for, but I mean there's no evidence really, but I >> mean, it's attempted murder. >> It is attempted. >> Oh, he would have got me for sure for a simple for a simple >> Well, he had he had he had a warrant that he lied about. Yeah. >> You have a laser on it when you pulled it out. >> Oh, yeah. >> Did it? >> Yeah. >> Try anything. >> Mhm. >> Yeah. Cuz that was the first thing I saw. >> There's loaded. >> But he Yeah, he racked it. He like pulled the trigger with the racket. Conrad like came over cuz I I got up and I was like this. Conrad's on like get off of him. But then the kid gave up. I'm about to call uh you take any medicine. >> He got struck a couple times, but I don't think he had his head covered. Good. >> He's being kind of weird, but he hands me that full pills. Okay. >> So, I do pat him down, but I I didn't get his pouch that he had. So, as I'm sitting there, he lies about his name. finally tells [music] me it's been inquiry just told me he's got 881s. I didn't even He's armed and dangerous. As soon as he does that, he pulls a gun out, puts [music] up my head, pulls the trigger, doesn't go off. All her stuff, let's get her formate going and get her out the county. >> Her charge is going to be theft. >> That's all I I was going to release him. That was the thing. Like it was just going to be a summon. >> Did she do anything during all this? >> I mean, not not the the >> theft, right? She has we can get her and cut her like give her her pocket. >> Make sure she's not under her disability if she has hair with that too. >> Do you want the >> In the end, the man was charged with attempted murder, illegal possession of a firearm, endangering a law enforcement officer and theft. The woman was charged with theft. Attempting to hide dangerous intentions or commit crimes can escalate situations extremely quickly. Cooperation with law enforcement and transparency can prevent life-threatening outcomes and reduce legal consequences. Next, this mother kept showing the police the extent of her wrongdoing. What >> kind of papers do you have? >> Give me grace. So, what kind of paper do you have? >> That one though. >> Did someone give you this 50? >> That was mine. >> That was yours. >> On November 17th, 2024, police were on their way to conduct a welfare check when they accidentally spotted a woman named Elizabeth Novak. panhandling with her young relative. Officers immediately approached her, but the real surprise was yet to come. >> Hey, so unfortunately, you're not allowed to panhandle like you're doing. >> No, here. >> No, not anywhere in the county. You can't stand on the corner anywhere and ask for money. >> Okay, sorry, but I'm not going to come here anymore. >> Oh, do you have an ID or anything? No, I forgot the home. >> So, you don't have any kind of ID on you? >> No. >> Okay. Is that your van? >> No, I'm coming with the Uber. >> Okay. >> I don't have a car driving. >> What's your first name? Based on the name she gave to the police, they immediately realized that this woman was far from ordinary. >> How you doing, man? >> Good. I am 1012 with your attempt to identify suspects here at the >> at the Target at Santa Barbara Veterans. >> Excellent. >> Great. Did she uh have any ID that she gave you? >> She said she left it at home. >> Oh crap. But do we have any kind? Well, I mean, obviously we've got some PC. She's got a bag with her. Does that give me enough to double check to make sure she doesn't actually have ID on her? >> No, I don't have PC on her yet. Is a problem. I didn't >> Okay. >> I didn't have a I didn't have a photo of her to show um Julia over there at the store. So, yeah. if so what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna come out there uh attempt to talk to her take a good photo of her that I can put in a photo array and then at the end of all that and how long have you been here? >> Just like half an hour or something. >> And you got all that? Did you bring that money? >> No, I have some money my >> Okay. How I mean standing here in that half hour, how much stuff did you guys get? >> We did like 50 bucks something. >> Okay. We was about to leave, you know, when you came because we didn't want to stay anymore, you know. >> Okay. >> We wanted like >> Has anybody ever talked to you before about like standing on corners asking for money? >> No, >> never. >> Like >> that. It's never happened in Cape Coral. >> How about here? >> Yeah. >> From the conversation, the police also realized that the woman was not from around here. And soon after an immigration officer arrived to continue handling the situation. >> Hey, how are you? You speak English? >> Hi. Yeah. >> Yes. Immigrations. >> Uh, do you have any with you? >> I don't have it right. Maybe you already said that. I forget. >> You don't have any ID with you? Not at all. >> No. >> Did you have no documents at all? Nothing. >> Okay. I ended up finding her through some prior call history. >> Okay. The driver's license number and address are in the picture. >> Mind if I ask you a couple of questions over here immigration related? >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> What's your status in the United States? >> Okay. Like >> I have the papers from >> What kind of papers do you have? >> Immigration. >> Yeah. I'm immigration. So what kind of paper do you have? >> Uh that one the N4 it's called. There's no such thing as I94. >> I don't know how you how they call you know the papers but they give me from the immigration. >> When did you come to United States? >> It's around like 2 years. >> 2 years ago through where? >> From back home. >> Okay. Well, how did you get here? >> I came like from the Mexico. >> So you crossing Mexico? >> Yes. >> So you flew from where? >> Where's home for you? from Hungary. >> So Hungary's home? >> Yeah. >> No, Romanian. You're Hungarian. >> It came from Hungary. >> So you're Hungarian? >> No. Okay. >> All the information she provided was non-existent, and even what she did present was contradictory and confusing. [music] More importantly, this raised concerns for the police about the young relative beside her. >> The three of you? >> Yeah. >> Okay. Who's the dad? >> He's not here. >> Where is he at? >> He's in. Did he give permission to his kid being in in this country? >> Did the dad give permission to his kid be outside? >> So you have full custody of him? >> Yes. >> You have the paper for that? >> For the full custody. >> Yes. But I the baby born here. >> He was born in the United States. >> So he was not born. >> He was not born here. >> Okay. here. >> So, you were pregnant when you passed? >> No. >> You said you've been here 2 years, right? >> No, I was here like before. >> So, you're Okay, let me get So, because this is getting more confusing. So, >> you're Irish. >> Yeah. >> So, you're from UK. You have your from Ireland. You have your Irish passport. Okay. >> So, what is the connection of Romania? >> No, there's my only my country Romania. So mainly it's only your father. >> Yeah. But I live in Ireland cuz I born there. >> You were born in Ireland. How long did you live in Ireland? >> I live like 30 14 years >> in Ireland. >> Yeah. >> And then you went back to Romania. >> Yeah. >> Right. How long were you in Romania? >> Like for a few years. >> How many years? >> Five, six years. >> Five, six years in Romania. >> Yeah. Then it gets worse. Yes. >> While the immigration officer was handling the situation, [music] other police investigated her previous theft. Learning that she had used her young relative to push a cart while shoplifting. She was immediately confronted about this. >> I'm sorry. I'm sorry, S Elizabeth. You realize that you've implicated your son into a transaction. Does that sit well? No. Why don't that if you want to tell if you want to tell me 10 years from now you're working with each other in 10 years we haven't stolen a single thing since then I'll be until then I don't need to see is there anything else that you can tell me to help understand what's happening here why you're Nobody. Let's be honest. All right. Well, you pick a really dumb thing to see. So, everything became clear despite her denials. And at that moment, the police decided [music] to take action. Presently you are under arrest for two charges. One is grand. The other is contributing to the delinquency of a minor pretty slim unless they come from. Yeah, >> I figured out you don't have anything else, any other contraband items that's hidden on your person? Any any drugs, anything like that? >> I don't see a clasp on this. Does this just go over your head? >> No, it has like open. >> Oh, there it is. Okay. Did someone give you this 50? >> That was mine. >> That was yours? I'm not taking your money. I'm just documenting it. >> I was just curious if there's people out here that are giving pan handlers $50 just out of the goodness of their hearts because so that's really something. A while later, a man appeared after the woman called for help, but it seemed that things were far from simple. >> Well, the person I was trying to talk to in English on the phone never spoke to me in English. Was that you? >> You just didn't want to address me. >> I I did. Was I speaking to you? >> But you didn't tell me where you were. >> Oh, cuz she told you she was getting arrested. >> She was getting arrested. What did you want to help me get? >> All right. So >> the father is >> So you you knew his dad? >> Yeah. Back when we were younger. He left him he left the he left the kid when he was like a little kid. So she's been struggling ever since, you know. So I've been trying to kind of help and take care of them sometimes, you know. >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> Where did you guys meet? >> Us? >> Yeah. >> We're from the same hometown. We used to live in Ireland together like a long time ago. >> That accent just like popped up out of nowhere. >> I know. >> I can't happen sometimes. You know what I'm saying? >> Sure. You're Irish also. >> I'm Irish. Yeah. I was born and raised in Ireland. Parents are remain there. >> When did you come to the US? >> About a year and a half ago. >> To where? >> Sorry. >> To where? >> From Ireland. >> Sorry. But you? >> Yeah. I came here legally. >> Illegally? >> Legally? >> Legally? >> Yes. I came here on a visa. Which kind of visa? >> Uh, work visa. Not work visa. Um, business visa. >> What kind of business do you have? I'm immigration, by the way. Make the immigration. >> Nice to meet you. >> Okay. Hello. Sorry. No. >> Finally, the woman was arrested and charged with grand theft and contributing to delinquency of a minor. Her 7 years old son also was notified DCF by officers. Involving minors in illegal activities and being dishonest with law enforcement can escalate legal trouble and endanger vulnerable individuals. Not stopping at theatrics. The woman even physically assaulted the employee. >> You're afraid. >> Yeah. Stop. >> He's You're me. >> All stf is safe. Why are you afraid? I'm a police officer in a marked uniform. >> On June 10th, 2023, officers received a report of an ongoing theft. The suspect, a woman, had taken clothes into the fitting room, but emerged with all the items missing, leaving only empty hangers behind. Upon arriving at the scene, it was clear she was far from cooperative. >> You know what? Here's my policeman. Let me talk to him. >> You're going to catch an additional charge. You fight with me. You understand? Stop. >> Please don't grab me. Don't grab my pocketbook. >> Let go of the purse. >> Please let go of the purse. Please unhand me. >> Let go of the >> unhand me. >> You're hurting me. >> This is going to follow. >> Stop. You're going to catch a felony charge. You keep fighting with me. You understand? Stop. >> I'm not going to tolerate the crap. You understand? >> You're hurting me. >> You're hurting me? >> Yeah. Stop. You're hurting me. >> You're hurting me. Get the camera for a second. >> Relaxing me. [screaming] >> Stop. Stop. Stop. >> Please. Please stop. Please. [crying] >> Stop. >> Thus, the woman's attempts to assert authority [music] were completely ineffective under the law. At this point, she should have complied with the officer's instructions. >> Oh my [screaming] god. You're hurting me. >> You done? >> Yes, I am. >> Okay, we're going to stand you up. I'm going to sit you in a car so I can do my investigation. >> Double lock. >> Please. >> 511 in custody. Channel. Oh god. >> Oh, you're just normal on one. One. >> You guys dead? >> Yep. >> Come on. Bring your knees to your stomach so we can stay. >> Bring your knees to your stomach. Let's go. >> One, two, three. [laughter] >> Is this her? >> Yeah. Just leave it off here. Here you go. Throw her in a car. >> Sure can. That way. Walk. >> You your help, please. >> Did you release the channel already? >> Yeah. >> I don't know. I'm not sure where to shoot, too. I flipped all around the furniture. >> Immediately after escorting the woman outside, the officers interviewed the employee to get a detailed account of her actions. >> So, what happened was um saw her uh that's her seat belt. She she's she selected a bunch of items. Mhm. Um, and then she went in the fitting room with them, came out without them, hung up the empty hangers. Um, they're in here. >> Everything's in here. >> Yes. Yes. Okay. >> Oh my god. >> Do you have anything on you that you shouldn't have? >> Okay. Don't move. >> I really didn't want to call you guys, but she was uh >> She is what it is. So, she's going to catch the retail theft and the resisting cuz her all this is paid for. >> That's uh that paid. Yeah, it's one dress. >> See, there was a pocket on that side. Go and sit down in the car. >> Have a seat. Bump first. Have a seat. >> Inside the car. >> You can't get inside. >> I'll let you fall. There you go. >> Ow. All the way. Watch your foot. >> All the way. Watch your foot. >> The reason I showed up so fast. Did she hit you? Well, we came back here and and she she she didn't hit me. No, no, she was resisting. She grabbed my badge, [laughter] my uh lost perion badge. >> Okay. Here's here's the charge. >> Okay. >> The the charge would be resisting a merchant. Do you feel that she was resisting like >> Absolutely. Absolutely. >> She she was attempting to leave when you said, "Hey, I'm loss prevention. I work for >> Yeah. She Goodwill." >> When we had when we were back here, she she's like, "I'm leaving. You're going to go to jail. We're going to get your license plate number." Okay. >> Yeah. She very very violent, man. But she did not hit me. Can't say she did, you know. Okay. >> Thus, all the actions the officers had taken earlier were entirely lawful to ensure the safety of the staff. Yet, at this point, the woman completely portrayed herself as the victim of the incident. >> I don't know what to do now. My my other half is going to be >> Hold on one second, man. Okay. Up. Nothing like that. All right. >> Just take a breath. Just stay in the car. Stay in the car. >> I didn't move. >> We'll talk about everything in just a second. Okay. As long as you're not injured. That's what I wanted to make sure of. Okay. >> I don't I heard from where he knocked me on the table. >> I didn't Who knocked you off the table? you off. >> I didn't do anything to make do that. >> Do you need medical attention? >> Ma'am, do you need any medical attention? It's a yes or no question. >> No. >> Okay, good. >> Watch your leg. >> Just go ahead and call them for just just a precautionary. Okay, I'll go get you. >> Although the woman appeared panicked and struggled to breathe, everything seemed to settle immediately once the officers attempted to inspect her belongings. >> I got one by uh the numbers WW previous trespass history in reference to theft. You okay? He's going to my purse. >> Yes, ma'am. Cuz you're currently in custody. >> You don't know what any of that means. >> Uh you're going to jail one for resisting a police officer. Uh and two, yes, you did. You obstructed our investigation. Therefore, it's called resisting an arrest without violence. Uh, and then for the for the theft of whatever you took, cuz that's why we're out here. Allegedly, you took something. But I'm not the one doing that investigation. That's Officer Asbury. >> Thus, the woman was made fully aware of the consequences of her actions. Yet, she showed no remorse and continued to obstruct the officers with a feigned innocence. So, >> I'm going to ask you questions about what happened today, why I got called to the Goodwill. >> So, it's it's a yes or no. Go ahead. It's a yes or no. Do you want to talk to me or not? >> I need to call my other half first. >> You're not going to call anybody. You're currently in police custody. Okay. >> So, it's a yes or no. It's a yes or no. Ma'am, you're an adult. You can make this decision. If it's a no, I won't ask you anything else. If it's a yes, and we'll have a conversation on why why I'm here and why you're in handcuffs. I'm going to ask you one more time. >> I'm not sure what to do, sir. >> You do you do you want to talk to me knowing that you can have a lawyer present or not? That's basically the question. >> You need to talk to me now or not at all. >> Then what happens to me if I want a lawyer present? >> Then I stop my question. >> And what happens to me? >> H >> what happens to me? I go with everything that I've already seen transpire and what the loss prevention manager stated. I I basically I won't be able to collect your side of the story. So, yes or no? Fire department's here to check on your injuries and I have to complete my investigation. So, yes or no? >> It depends on what you're going to ask me, sir. >> About what happened today? >> I don't know what I will or will not answer until I hear a question. Back inside the store, a female officer reviewed the woman's actions with the employee to clarify the sequence of events. >> This way, >> now I'm over here watching her between racks. >> Okay. >> Because uh >> this is the second time she's going in or her second time. >> Okay. >> Um the first time she went in, she stole two dresses and second time two dresses again. >> Okay. >> When she crossed point of sale, I apprehended her right at the door. >> Um I didn't wait for her to get to the parking lot because >> they run on me over here, you know. >> Yeah. Yeah. He confronts her at the door. They go into the room. Um while they're talking, he takes a picture of her because that's part of their protocol. And um she tries to snatch the phone out of his hand. And then he says, "The police are on their way. You're not going anywhere." And she like comes up and chest to chests him. Like >> it wasn't hard, but she like chest bumps him. And he stands in the way and says, "No, you're not." And that was it. >> All right, Michila. I told you I would give you one more opportunity to talk to me. Okay. You understand your Miranda rights as they were given to you? You understand that you're still under the protection of the Miranda rights. You understand that you've already acknowledged you understand your Miranda rights. My question is, do you wish to continue to speak to me in reference to what happened? >> Sure. >> Okay. What happened today? >> I didn't do anything. >> Miss Burr, I'm not saying that you swung at me. That would be a different charge and it would be a felony. But when I go to detain you so I conduct an investigation where me, you and all staff >> I was afraid >> is is safe. Why were you afraid? I'm a police officer in a marked uniform. >> The fact of the matter is >> the whole thing. I was afraid of the whole thing. >> Miss Bird, the fact of the matter is is if you just allowed me to do my job, you would have walked away from here. >> She was charged with two offenses. Misdemeanor retail theft and resisting an officer without violence. Always comply with law enforcement and cooperate fully during investigations. Attempting to manipulate the situation or feain innocence only worsens consequences. Next, the thieves who are shopping for Christmas gifts would have to pay the price behind bars. >> Talk to him. >> What I do? >> She's in up here. >> All right, I got him. >> Come on over here. All right. >> On December 17th, 2022, officers responded to a call from Walmart after receiving reports of a couple caught shoplifting on site. Upon arriving, the suspects attempted to leave, instantly escalating the tension. >> You too. >> Hey. >> Hey. Come on. >> Hold on. We got officers >> 33 to 70 and 90. We're going to make contact in the store if you all just want to each take a door. >> Why are you running? Are you running that way? Hey sir, how you doing? Do me a favor. Put your hands behind your back. You're being detained. >> What? >> Put your hands behind your back. >> You're being detained. >> Close. >> You got him. When the officers arrived, alarm sirens blared, explaining the staff's hurried actions. Shortly after, the man was apprehended. And naturally, the woman was taken into custody as well. >> Talk to him. >> She's in up here. All right, >> I got her. >> Come on over here. >> The reason we're stopping you is for suspected shoplifting. So, let's go over here. >> Okay. >> This is all I got. >> We already catch on camera. >> Yeah. >> Me? >> Yes, you. Let's go right. Let's go up here. I'm going to the front. >> I'm going to the front. >> He's already been detained by an officer. >> We're going to take a right there at the little key little black machine. Okay. >> Have a seat. >> I got contact with her. We're walking up to Loss Prevention. >> This is This the dog. Okay. >> Okay. >> Well, they got an office up here. We're going to go in there. >> Okay. >> Do you have ID on you? >> No. >> You saw that? >> Go to this office right here for me. >> No. No, they're not coming off. Go to the suspect. >> The suspects grew angry when their unnecessary demands were ignored. At that moment, the woman spotted the man and seemed to realize what was happening, making the situation far from easy. >> Last name. >> Spell that. >> G O. Date of birth. >> Huh? >> No. >> What's your phone number? >> I don't have a phone. >> Okay. What's your address? What's your What's your name, sir? >> Robert what? >> What's your name? Bobby. >> Bobby. What? >> We got called by Walmart because >> We got called by Walmart because they are observing their security footage and witnessed you and this individual here shoplifting by concealing items inside of a backpack. >> Do you have anything on you that belongs? >> Okay. Don't reach in your pockets anymore. That's what I found. >> See, >> I'm going to loosen these up a little bit. All right. >> You almost got me. >> All right. Just Just face me for a second. I want his pocket. short. >> I don't do that. >> I'm going to loosen up the right one now. Okay. >> I was just watching. >> I was following him. >> All right. Well, we're going to watch the video and we're going to see what happened. Okay. >> The woman insisted that she hadn't stolen anything and was merely following the man. She even began to lament her own hardships, seemingly seeking sympathy. >> My husband died last year. My mama died on July 29th and my husband died on the 28th. >> July 29th and my husband died on the 28th. >> This left one still too tight. >> Left arm still too tight. >> You got to call on 76. >> You okay, man? >> He's saying the left left hand cuff's a little too tight. >> It's food. >> Just call merchandise. >> Oh, coming out. Uh do we have a bag or buggy? Buggy's right here. >> Yeah, there's a buggy around the corner. >> What's up? >> It's against skin. You're going to want to keep your gloves on. >> Yeah. >> You got anything on you? That's this. >> Like I said, >> I know you lift your shirt up. I just want to make sure. Good. >> What are you carrying on about? Close this before I'm coming. It probably just feels tight cuz you have all in your back. >> Oh, yeah. Listen, please. >> Stand by. >> 60 central carry on. They're not tight. >> All right. You got a warrant out for you. So, I'm going to detain you. >> Habersam. >> What the? Although the woman denied stealing herself, further questioning revealed that she was fully aware of the man's theft, clearly indicating complicity and cooperation in the crime. And having these rights of mind, do you wish to talk to us now? >> Can't I have it? >> Okay. Well, I just need a yes or no if you want to talk. >> I just want to talk about them. >> Is that a yes? >> Yes. >> Okay. All right. So, obviously, we're out here for, you know, a call for reported shoplifting because I understand. And I hear what you're saying, but you know, there's a difference between you just being present in the store and cooperating with him. Okay. At any point, uh, did you all come up here to shoplift? >> He has food stamps. He must be coming up here to get some water cuz they better take my asthma. I have to have water. >> Mhm. >> We're on the urge of moving cuz she's going to his mom house. >> Y'all already search water. No lights on. >> I have not touched that yet. >> You know what I'm saying? lost prevention. >> I think they got >> probably >> I'm standing over there holding the doggy. I was holding the dog playing with the little puppy thingy >> when I kept ping saying babe and I'm saying what are you what are you thinking like somebody this way you >> further investigation revealed that this was not the first time the man had committed such acts yet when questioned the woman completely evaded any acknowledgement of it. >> Um I'm a fighter. >> What kind of fight? >> What kind? >> Anybody? >> Oh, you mean like you fight? So you saying you never got caught? Say you never >> No, I'm saying no. I went to jail. >> I asked you how many shoties you had. You said I'm >> What's up, sir? When people going to learn it, they'll come in the store and get them goddamn. >> When they going to learn, they going to learn it. >> I don't know. They will tell you where you look. They going to learn. >> Um, are they doing the baring for him? >> Yeah. She said Jamie wants to meet at the restaurant. >> This lady. >> Oh, it's probably Robinson. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Got a dog in the bathroom. Yeah, >> probably >> one there. >> I mean, I was going to go out here and start >> or that one. >> It was clear that neither of them showed any remorse on their faces, prompting the officers to decide to take them into custody. >> You're being arrested for shoplifting. Okay. Is this his wallet? >> Yeah, there's >> wires. >> No. So that that's actually against county policy and uh none of us are getting fired for your convenience, ma'am. >> So make sure this is granola. >> I guess this is going to go back. >> Yeah. >> So this is a food item. So I'm going to throw it out. Okay. >> Do you all have a trash can anywhere near here? Oh, the thing I'm looking at. Thank you. >> All right. All right. You ready, ma'am? >> Go ahead and stand up. So, I got to assert you now that we know that you're going to the jail. All right. >> I'm just going to flip these. >> Yeah. I'm going to just flip them out so the jail could see that. >> You're good. Trying to keep the shirts separated. >> So, before we get you down there, I ask every single person. I'll need those items, too. >> What is that? >> This is my for my food stamps. Tissue. >> My arms. >> Yep. >> My arms.

You That's unlawfully detaining me because um I didn't take it. Look at that. >> On September 5th, 2025, police received a report from a University of Illinois student that her backpack containing cash, a passport, [music] and a laptop had been stolen. Tracking the device, officers confronted the suspect who appeared visibly panicked. Hello. >> How are you? >> I'm all right. How are you? >> I'm good. Is this your laptop here? >> No. Yesterday I got I got it from a friend. >> Okay. Said they never let me use it. >> Okay. >> Do you have a driver's license or state ID on you? >> I usually do. >> Did I see that? >> Um yes. >> You can just leave all that stuff on the table. >> Going to the bathroom. >> Oh, okay.

Stop. >> Well, let go of me. >> What? >> She did not try to flee without reason. That very action sent her into a state of panic, forcing officers [music] to step in and calm her down. But we just need you to try to, you know, take those deep breaths so that, you know, you can try to deescalate yourself. >> Are you on a unit here for transport? >> Are you guys going to do it? I can't do it at all. >> If if we can let someone come here, >> I'm the man. I just want to make sure you guys don't need anything. >> I think we're okay. >> No, I think we're okay. We were just going to try to take her into custody and yeah, she started fighting. So, okay. I'm just going to try to remove everything here from you for from her. >> If you guys want to wipe this up after I leave, just make sure there's no rugs, anything that would be illegal in here. I would do a really good cleaning of this space. >> Gotcha. That didn't go. >> No. >> Did you come out here to Panera for a search and a transport? I can't transport. You have evidence bags in your car. >> My car is parked up here. Just bring my car around here in the back. The dog won't He'll pit your but won't hurt you. So, we're going to have a female officer come here and search you. Okay. Before she gets here, listen. Before she gets here, do you have anything on you that's going to poke her or stick her? Do you have any needles on you? >> My name's never my lawyer. I >> I'm not asking you questions about what you're being arrested for. I'm asking if you have a needle for money for free or just said I have my money and therefore my lawyer. >> The woman avoided questions about the needle just as she had dodged handing over her ID. She showed no intention of cooperating and even appeared anxious that police would take her belongings. I >> I've been asking you for our safety if you have a needle on you. That's all I'm asking. It's this has nothing to do with the case. This is a general officer safety question. Do you have a needle on you or any needles in your purse or on you? That's all I'm asking. >> I don't know. How am I supposed to be able to see what you guys are doing there? So, I'm not in there watching you guys. >> We're not going to take your things. >> I know you guys. Hello. >> Do what? Ma'am, they know more about They know more about the case than I do and you'll have to ask them. >> I I was speaking with her about the needle and she won't answer any of my questions. Okay. >> So, my guess is she might have something on her. >> Yeah. Watch her.

And I didn't steal anything. >> Well, the what you were in possession of was stolen property. So, >> I I found it on the net. >> That's not what you just told me before I talked to you. No, you touched the laptop and it doesn't >> Well, I listen. Do you have me stealing it? I mean, I don't understand. >> How about this? Since you're in custody right now, I'm going to read you this. Okay. >> Sit down. Sit. >> Sit down. >> Sit down. >> Steal everything. >> Sit down. >> All right. I'm I'm just let I'm just letting you know that I'd asked her about needles and she won't answer the question. So, just be prepared. >> Because you're not going to get out of this. >> Her behavior was completely erratic. She could not remain still to assert her innocence and even made repeated claims that her rights were being violated. >> Anything you say may be used against you in a court of law. You have a right to a lawyer and to have a lawyer present while you're being questioned. If you're unable to pay for a lawyer, one will be appointed for free. Do you understand your rights? >> Nope. >> But I have my money for a lawyer. I go pay my >> Okay. Do you wish to talk to me without a lawyer? >> No. >> You want your lawyer? Okay. No problem. >> Keep me out of jail. >> No, you're going to jail. >> Yeah. I didn't see any put anything in there. >> All I have is these. That's fine. >> Thank you. I'm sorry. We're good. >> 101 from 131. We're going to be on the northeast side opener. >> Find my way to do it. Like always think we're going to do >> well because I'm tired of it. It's not fair. >> Well, can you please sit down? Like I I don't understand. Like >> you don't understand >> why you're why you're being uncooperative. >> Because I'm tired of the police. That's why. Second of all, because I have that you got to keep me in charge of things that I didn't do. To cut down the book does not mean that I took it. The possessing something doesn't mean that I took it. Anything guilty and I mean the proof and you save me this whatever the laptop. Yeah. I said I got to my friend. That's against I write something. That's against the law. That's unlawfully detaining me cuz um I didn't take the book. So unless you guys have somebody that has seen it or dispatch me, then you can't arrest me. That's unlawful. My lawyer's just enough money to get my lawyer and my lawyer's not any lawyer's numbers in there. At this point, officers tried to refocus on the theft itself, but true to form, the woman continued to dodge the issue, offering evasion she could no longer justify. I'm telling you, regardless of the situation, you are in possession of a stolen laptop and you're using it. Okay, that's that's that's a big deal. Okay. >> I mean, let me let me use it. >> Oh, you take it. I want to go. You detaining me. I didn't see me do it cuz I didn't take it. So, >> ma'am, I just told you. >> I understand. I just told you that you're in possession of a stolen laptop, >> right? I know it was stolen. It was clearly a lot for me to use. That don't make no sense. >> Okay. Well, >> everybody thinks I was the line all the time. How it was taken. >> Take her over there. >> Yeah. >> Let's go over here, man. Come on. Come on. Please. >> We're not going to throw you around. We've not We haven't done that. >> Just cooperate with us. Come on. I mean, listen. >> We'll get you over here by this squad car. Okay. Come on. >> Amy, just this. >> You've done good so far once we got out here. Come on. >> Just listen to it. >> Just don't don't There's no need. All right. >> That's fine. >> Go ahead and search. Do you have anything that could stick me? >> Got her. >> Stick me. Poke me. Hurt me? Anything on you at all that can hurt me? >> Okay. Thanks for being on this. What I'm going to do is take your coat off because it protects too much you and from me. Okay. Got it. I'm going to take your coat off. >> What pocket? >> It's in this. Which pocket? >> My arm. >> It's in here. What is it? >> Yeah. What is it? >> It's a needle. Is that all you got? >> This is a needle. >> Okay. >> What's that? >> Okay. So, what I'm going to do is just take this stuff out and set it here with this officer. Okay. In the end, the woman was charged with theft, resisting arrest, possession of methamphetamine, and drug paraphernalia. Refusing to cooperate, evading questions, and resisting officers only turned a manageable situation into serious felony charges. Even worse, these individuals didn't even seem to understand what it meant to be guilty. >> Wait, what do we do? >> It's a crime. >> Wait. Yeah, it's still criminal. >> I get it. I get it. Yeah. >> On April 20th, 2025, police received a call from Walmart reporting an ongoing theft by a group of teenage girls. Upon arriving at the scene, officers immediately began assessing the situation using footage from the store's security cameras. >> She's selecting more clothes to bring. She's going to bring back another pair of clothes. So, they just keep bringing more items back to the shape of the room. >> Yeah. You guys recognize these pillows? They meth December. I was chasing like two of them and they dropped the stuff and they run. You know, I couldn't do nothing. That's why when I see them today, I just let them know cuz yeah, they see me, but >> they're still on which way they They go left. They're coming this way, right? >> Yeah. >> They're at a lane right now. >> I'm 11. >> Oh, I think they're going to that side. >> The eastern. >> Yeah, they're facing that direction, but I don't know. At that moment, other officers were already waiting outside the store, quickly receiving the signal and immediately approaching the suspects who were completely caught off guard by the sudden action. >> You see? >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Put your hands behind the back. Wait, what are we doing? Oh, wait. Let me wait. What the heck? I didn't shoot. >> I didn't do nothing. Wait, wait. What the heck? I didn't SAY I'M GETTING ARRESTED. HOLD ON. WAIT. MY PHONE. >> WAIT. Hold on. I need to call somebody. >> Stop resisting. >> I'm not resisting. >> Relax your hands. >> Okay. I'm relaxing here. Give me your phone. Wait. Wait. Hold on. Wait. Boyfriend. >> Your boyfriend can wait. >> Wait. Hey, come on. >> Okay. Can I GET MY WHY THE RECORDING? >> STOP. Relax your arms. >> Oh my. >> Like he said, you're being detained for suspicion of retail. All right. The police successfully detained the suspects who were unaware that their actions had been detected, leading them to display outbursts of anger to mask their fear. >> You were like, "No, why is she reporting me?" Like what? Like, I'm already, >> bro. I didn't even I didn't even touch nothing. People were trying to buy bra. What? >> I'm trying to show off to her, but why was she recording me though? Like, is she allowed to do that? >> It's a free country. You can record whoever you want. >> No, that's not true. I didn't give her I ain't give her the first one in there. Freedom of speech. >> It includes pictures and video and publicity. >> I'm not trying to start no problem. I'm just already mad. Like, I was on the phone. >> Yeah, I saw you. You look pretty heated. >> I was mad as [ __ ] Hey, did you advise three detained or no? >> Okay, probably. >> Why you laughing? Oh my god, it's so embarrassing. Sorry. >> See you next week. >> As soon as they entered the loss prevention office, the officers got straight to the point, leaving the suspects shocked that the police already knew every item they had taken. stuff in the bag. She had the phone the girl with the black and the gray shirt. They put stuff in her bag. She has a phone case which is this one. >> No, it's the other one. >> Oh, I ain't taking I don't care. >> That one is my It's the purple one. >> Wait, y'all going through my stuff? What the heck? >> Just let him. Oh, air pressure >> and then the phone case. I I'll see where >> you have to do like every now and my think I'm lying about getting arrested. >> Will you talk to him? >> All three of you. Um they're still doing their investigation. See whether or not they want to prosecute. Okay. >> All right. >> Um I'm off the fender with Wind Police Department. I'm going to read you your rights. Okay. >> Wait, wait, wait. Time. >> That's mean we're going to jail if you're reading the rights. >> Not sure yet. We haven't gotten to that. >> Oh, wait. Cash. Wait. We can't see our phones or nothing. >> Yes. He took my apple inside. >> Just hold on a second. I'm required to warn you before you make any statement. >> There were no signs of remorse or shame for their actions. Perhaps it was their first time committing such acts as they responded with naive questions when asked. >> But what does that mean? Like as in what? Like >> given that you guys were just read your rights, do you understand your rights to you? >> Yeah. Okay. >> That being said, do you want to talk to us? >> Fine. >> Well, you have to answer if you want. You don't have to. Oh, but okay. That's what I mean. I mean, yeah, that's >> okay. >> Did you guys take anything that didn't belong to you? >> If it's that serious, we'll buy it. >> If it's that [ __ ] we'll pay for it if they want us to do that. >> Okay. >> But I I get what you're saying. Like, >> so it's not a question of is it that serious? It's theft. >> Okay. Doesn't belong to you. You can't take things that don't belong to you. Retail theft is still retail theft. >> It's not a question of, "Oh, it's just this. It's that." That's not yours. >> Yeah. >> Right. But it's not your right to take it. It's a crime. >> You can be taken to jail for that. Are you an adult? Are you 18? >> Mhm. >> Okay. So, you can go to county jail for Gorilla Glue. >> Like, is it really worth it? >> Right. You guys got to make smarter decisions. You see these cameras? These are like 4K, 8K, 12K, whatever they're up to now. >> They can literally track every single movement and zoom in onto your nose ring, >> right? And that's what that guy does all day, every day. He tracks people that look suspicious. Okay? >> And take This is job. >> Yeah. >> You know what I mean? So is going to search all of you. Honesty goes a long way. When she searches you, is there going to be anything on your person that doesn't belong to you? >> A lesson in ethics in the law took place and it seemed to have been absorbed as they went on to admit that they still had additional items on their person. >> Oh, wait. I Yeah, hold on. I still got Aquafer in my purse. >> You still got what? >> Aquafer in my purse. >> What is that? >> Vaseline. Vaseline. >> Oh, wait. No, no. I No, I do. I have a shirt in my brace.
