Two weeks. I did. That's why I'm here. >> say two weeks. You just did. >> No, I said two weeks. Fake innocence was what these naive thieves thought they possessed. With their acts of resistance and stupid remarks, the police made them face the truth. Here are the times when when shoplifters play dumb and act innocent. Every situation comes with a lesson to learn. Like and subscribe to support us and catch the next videos. Let's start with this thief. She thought she could hide everything from the police. So, when I asked you for a ID, why lie to me? I'm trying to actually get you out of this. Yo, come on. Stop, bro. Hey, man. Let me go. Are you serious? On May 2nd, 2024, police responded to the scene after receiving a report about a woman who attempted to flee after stealing 6 gallons of laundry detergent from Walgreens. When officers approached her, they clearly observed her attempted escape through her heavy breathing. So, I'm over here. I'm stopping you real quick. Okay. Where'd you get all this stuff? Both. Be honest. Both stuff. All right. Repeats. You just left the store. Just give me the stuff back so I can take it back to them. All right. All right. We not finna go through all this. >> All right. Take away. Give me a second. No, stay right there real quick. 2662. Do we have another unit of Oh, never mind. Uh, 2282 is here. Shortly after, police checked her bag and the quantity and items completely matched what had been reported earlier. Please take off your bag for me real quick. Is there anything in your pouch? Okay. All right. So, we got all this stuff. Um can you just do me a favor? Just go down to them. Tell them, you know, we got all of it. Return it because, you know, make sure they, you know, >> you need. Yeah. And we'll work it out like that. But, bring the backpack back though. That's hers. Clearly, that ain't nobody else's. Is there nothing in there that you need right now? All right. Give him a second. Let him return it. And just You know what I'm saying? You already know what to do. You know >> I'll bring the backpack back, all right. But, try to, you know, you feel me? Cuz it ain't even worth all that extra stuff. You got ID on you? I'd rather you have some sort of ID. I'd rather you have an ID. If not, I have to take you in and process you. >> I don't have nothing. So, no out-of-state ID something. I don't have nothing. Remember that earlier, the woman had claimed she had no identification, but everything changed when police checked her wallet and discovered it was a lie. I'll give you your wallet back and all that other stuff. All right, go sit there. Let me see your wallet. There's no ID in here is what you're telling me. I want my backpack back. So, when I asked you for an ID, why lie to me? I'm trying to actually get you out of this. So, this is obstruction of identification. This is arrestable because I asked you for your ID cuz you're caught in the commission of a misdemeanor, all right? Now, that's two charges rather than me trying to just let you slide. Why lie? You on probation? I'm trying to I'm literally trying to let you slide and you just keep lying to me for some Go ahead. You have a warrant? Anything? No. Jermisha is revoked out of Chicago 489. It's also showing service of all warrants. And she disregards that. So, it is Cook County Cook County warrant. You surely heard the radio transmissions clearly. The woman clearly had a reason to conceal her identity, but watch her demeanor when she was questioned about it. Do you have a warrant? What's it for? I don't have no warrant. I'm telling you you have a warrant. I'm not even asking you at this point. I'm telling you you have a warrant. They just told me you got a warrant right now. >> Uh it's service of law at Cook County for something. That's why I'm asking you cuz there's difference between warrants. I don't have a warrant. You're You're trying to tell me something that I'm literally telling you is on physical systems and paper that they just told me. They said you your name and birthday by physical thing and you have a warrant. For what? Stand up. Put your hands behind your back. All right, man. All right, man. No. Damn. What? We'll come back and get your stuff in a minute. Walk over this way. Come on, man. >> I'll have it in a minute. I ain't going to leave it. I won't leave nobody nowhere. >> Damn. 2662, I have one in custody. The drama did not stop there. It seemed the woman was ready to accept her fate, but instead, she decided to make a shocking move. Are you serious? Are you serious? Bend your arm or I'll bend it for you. Let me go. All right, this is the last time I'm going to tell you it's going to hurt. Let me go. 2662, can you send the other officer back over there? She's getting uh Let me go. Everything's in order. Let me go. Let me go. >> [screaming] >> Let me go. Let me go. Let me go. Let me go. Now you have a resisting arrest charge, when you would have got out 2 hours. 2 hours. Get up. 2 hours. That wallet right there. I'll get it when you're in custody. Get in the car. Get in the car. The next time it's going to be worse. Get in the car. Get in the car. At that moment, police gave her another chance to provide her information, but she continued to refuse cooperation hiding behind her victim AC. What's your name? No. It's Derencia. It was a simple thing. We would have figured it out. I tried to keep the cuffs loose on you. You slipped She slipped her hand out. She tried to take off on me. So, I had to try to cuff her, then she started fighting. I put her on the ground, cuffed her up. It's all good. Why would you do that? Why would you do that? I'm trying to help you. I'm even trying to take the Walgreens stuff off you. What she had Walgreens stuff? She had like like at least 15 to 20 things of soap and You know, I told her to take it back. I said, "Hey, talk to them. Maybe they'll let her slide. We got the stuff back." >> Okay. So, we're waiting while we're waiting, she said they say she got a warrant. Oh. It's serviceable. I said, "Hey, man, you got to come with this warrant. Don't worry about it. Something simple." That's the way they're putting it. At the police station, the woman still refused to accept that she had an active warrant, forcing officers to continue explaining while she appeared completely uninterested. I'd say you like this, Derencia. It's not our warrant. So, if they don't come get you, we personally don't care. We have We have better things to do with our time. What's the warrant for? I'm about to check right now. They They wouldn't say. I kept asking them This key up. >> [clears throat] >> Like I said, I think the the dispatcher's new, too, so Okay. I don't even know if it's I don't even know if it's a valid We've been cool with you, right? We're going to get you out of here, all right? Listen. Just double check. So, I'm going to tell you what you was asking me, okay? So, your warrant was a simple failure to appear in court. Is that it? That's it. It's a failure to appear. I'll show you if you want, I'll let you walk over here, we'll look at it together. But, it's a failure to appear. You were supposed to appear in DuPage for court. No, I wasn't. I don't know how it was. I don't know about that. >> I don't know DuPage. I don't know. This is you. This is you. DuPage, I don't know DuPage. Derenisha Derenisha See, age 34. I don't know what a warrant for DuPage I'm telling you what it's telling me. What kind of warrant for DuPage There's something I need to take off your I'm not taking off my socks. I'm not doing this. The difference of doing that, whether you want to do it or not, I'm not going to tell you what to do. It's getting out in the morning, early I don't care. or you staying and going to 26th and Cal. That's the difference between what you're doing right now. Finally, the woman was charged with retail theft and resisting arrest. Lying and resisting only made a minor situation spiral out of control. Honesty and cooperation could have prevented far more serious consequences. Next, another woman failed to keep her secret hidden. Um, let me just check that other pocket. Go ahead, sir. I did not take any glasses, I promise you. You did, you're on video. And she she Did no receipts? On the 25th of January 2025, police received a report from a shopping mall about a woman suspected of stealing multiple pairs of sunglasses without paying. When officers approached her, the woman clearly displayed a tense demeanor. Hey, sir. You can I can take you to my car. I did not take anything at all. That's fine, we're going to go to your car. Okay, come on. Um, let me just check that other pocket. Go ahead, sir. I did not take any glasses, I promise you. >> You did, you're on video tape. I can see the video. >> back, sir. It doesn't matter, you're on video tape. Where's the Open this bag. There's nothing inside this bag at all. My stomach. Okay. That's right, we're going to go out to car. Okay. Let's see. Where are you parked over at? I'm taking you I don't really know the area. All right. Go out Go out this way then. We're going out this way cuz I have another officer coming. Or we can walk around. Here. Go out this way. Can you ask him if he'll sign a sworn statement for the sunglasses cuz we don't have them and see if he'll press charges? You got to walk this way. Okay. What kind of car is it? It's a ultimate. Can they meet you over here to walk? She was at the mall. The car is open. I just said you could have walked that away. The woman denied everything and even while being escorted to her car, she continued trying to clear her name by promising to cooperate and allowing officers to search her belongings. I left the store without my glasses. I don't have any glasses. >> [music] >> Where you working? I don't know. This needs to be talked to the manager. They took my glasses. So if I don't find my glasses, I can leave, right? Because I don't have any glasses. >> No. So You're on video putting the glasses in your jacket. They're not in the store. >> Yes, they are in the store. I put the glasses back. So if they if they want to press charges, then they can press charges on you. That's for the glasses. You're on video taking the glasses and walking out of the store with them. >> I did not walk out the store with them. Going going going going straight to the car. Where's the vehicle? She moved the car. All right. Come over here. Put your bags up there. You got to hang up the phone right now. I'm going to call you back. Turn around and face me. You're under arrest as well. Put your phone up on that car. Can I at least let you search the car and see if she will come back around with the car? No, I don't I don't have to Police detained her as a precaution against any potentially dangerous actions while she repeatedly begged to make a phone call for various reasons, raising suspicion about a possible ulterior motive. Can I at least make a phone call, sir? You cannot use I just want to let my grandmother know. Yeah, please. I don't know what that is, so Yeah, I know what that is. So, you will be arrested for that alone. Do you have anything on you? No. Can I at least make a phone call, sir? Yeah, why don't you make a phone call to whoever has the vehicle to come over here to get your ID. Can I give you my name? Yeah. Can I at least make a phone call? You want her phone? At least so she can get my kids, please. Can you move over there? It's my kids. They at their grandma's house, please. What's your first name? J A V O N J A V O N S H A Y E S H A Y E D A V I S He stopped me from somewhere outside. She took two pairs on video, put them in her pockets, walked directly out of the store, said she doesn't have them. So, she probably met with someone passing by and handed them off. That's why I wanted the other girl to come out and talk to And we want to see what vehicle they are driving because she fits the same description that's been stealing Coach purses in the mall, but she also had the burglary device on her. So, no matter what, I'll charge her with this. I said the people from It's in Grayson. What about Texas? She was very likely part of an organized shoplifting ring, and the phone call may have been intended to contact her accomplices, a suspicion further reinforced by investigators noting familiar patterns surrounding her vehicle. I was trying to get You said it was a what? Ford Edge or something? Or a Ford Escape? It was all gold spray paint. Alpha 3. That's That's the three that I had last week run out of Mason. Alpha 3. And that's the the pictures. Hey, it looks the same. It's like the same, right? We have But she's saying she had a Altima? Yeah, the problem is she doesn't have an ID and I want her ID. That she's She wouldn't be given any more time. Do you think you'll let me make a call? No, we don't. That's not a thing, no. When you get to jail, if that's whatever decision they may take, that's when you make a phone call in there. >> I'm talking about Nelson that I can have my grandmother pick up my kids, please? I'm not What I'm trying to tell you is I'm not the officer, it's him. He already told you to wait, so you just have You have to wait for him, okay? Okay. Well, we're waiting to see if they want to press charges. Oh, okay. Maybe they don't They don't know yet. Oh, well. So, if they don't, there's nothing to do? Mhm. So. I'm just doing it just in case. Yeah, yeah. They don't want it. You're here the one who is taking the warrant? Yeah. That was wild. >> I know. I was I didn't know which way to go. I was like, "If he's left them golf shoes, should I go to that car?" At the same time, police searched the items in her shopping bags, and that was when they began to notice several other suspicious findings. Yeah. And I was sitting this way, and then they were the same, so I couldn't ask you questions. That's why. Can Hold on, man. Can you guys send someone to Pink for me? Pink? Right there. Right around What is it? Victoria's Secret, I guess. And see, she She had no receipts. Oh, she's still saying that. >> [clears throat] >> Yeah, she tried to pop it off. So, can you see if she will Did she pay for it? Well, now, I She has no receipt of it. Okay. So, let me photograph those real quick first and then if you can see if they want to press charges. Yes. Um if they do, just let us know we'll send an officer in there to the point saving, but I don't know if this is the only thing she could have taken a lot more stuff, but Yeah, I know. Well, that's what I'm thinking as soon as they left sunglass hut, they probably did a side swipe. So, she's not following the product. And he got me immediately. I was just having to be right there. From the items found on her person, police could clearly see her intent to steal. Yet, even after being exposed, she showed no sign of remorse. Can you roll the window down real quick? Is that your friend that has the car? No, that's my friend. Okay, then. Can I please tell my grandmother? I just want to let her know to get my kids, please. >> You got to wait. Could you loosen the cuffs for me? No, they have one finger in between. They don't get any looser than that. Do you take any medications or anything? No. Ma'am, I really need the cuffs loosened, please. I'll let him know. He already told you. If there's a finger in the middle, there's not much we can do with it. But if you look at it, my if you look at my wrist, it's a long big cut on my wrist. Do you take any drugs? No, not at all. Have you made any suicide attempts? >> No. Do you have [clears throat] any hallucinations? Huh? Do you know Do you have any hallucinations? >> No. Sir, could you please loosen the cuffs? If you look at my wrist, you will see a Please, could you please loosen the cuffs for me? No. I'll see this one finger in between and that's it. But if you look at my wrist, you could tell that it's it's a big I had surgery on my wrist. It's a it's a really big long cut on my wrist. Yeah, I told you it's my >> It's It goes from my wrist to my hand. In the end, the suspects was charged with grand theft and possession of burglary tools. Actions driven by deceit and entitlement inevitably leave evidence behind and refusing to show remorse only worsens the consequences when accountability arrives. In the next case, police seem to discover an entire treasure trove inside this woman's vehicle. >> You want that Thomas the tank Thomas the I searched Whole car looks messy. And have you pushing out a car? Pushing out a car? >> Uh-huh. I got one more left. >> Just say there's an officer up there. You just got to be straight. >> On May 25, police received a call from a Gabe's store reporting a theft that had occurred with the suspect being a mother who was accompanied by a family member. This is what the camera footage and the call content showed. Hi, I um would like to report a theft. I'm one of the managers at Gabe's. He stole a cart full of things in a in a laundry bag. What kind of car? Jeep Renegade. >> What color? Neon green. You said just left southbound on North Fairfield? Correct. Going towards Speedway. And what's the description of the person? White blonde hair and has her 9 or 10-year-old son that has White female, blonde hair, is driving? [music] Yes, ma'am. All right. I've got somebody on the way up there. Okay. All right, thanks. Bye. Based on the vehicle's striking color, officers had little difficulty locating it. This was what happened next. Turn your vehicle off. Put your keys outside the vehicle. Put your keys outside the vehicle. What do you mean can you get them? Just stay right there then. All right. >> my purse. >> Hands where I can see them, everybody. All righty. Beaver Creek, you're being stopped on suspicion of theft from Gabe's. >> just left Gabe's. >> Exactly, okay. Keep your hands where I can see them. >> Yes. All righty. What's the little one doing? What's his name? >> his iPad. His name's Elijah. >> Elijah. >> have his face. Oh, that's okay, buddy. All righty. So, I'm going to have you step out of the vehicle for me, please. All righty. What's your name? His name is Elijah. What's your name? >> Oh, Charity. Charity? All right, Charity. >> left Gabe's. All right, step back here for me. And I went back cuz I lost my wallet. Okay. >> Um, and then we went to Five Below. Okay, I got you. Okay, so what do you mean you went back there? I I left there, lost my wallet. >> Yeah. I was looking for my wallet, then I go to Kroger. >> Okay. So I went through the whole car, went back to Gabe's to look for my wallet, and then I went to Five Below and I found it. So she already had a full story for why she went to the store, but based on what they had, the officers were up front about the real reason for this encounter. So like I said, they said that you had stolen some items from them. No. >> And some kind of laundry bag or laundry basket. No, I don't have no laundry basket. >> No laundry bag, no laundry basket. Well, they gave this exact Jeep with this plate number with your exact description. So I don't know why they >> I went back in there to get my wallet. Maybe they thought I took a wallet. Okay, where was your wallet? >> It was next It was in Five Below, but I went back in there and I came right back out. So maybe they thought >> Did you have merchandise when you walked in? The store Did you have Did you have You just had your purse? >> Yeah. Did you buy anything anywhere? Did you buy anything anywhere? At Five Below. At Five Below? And you did Did you bring that merchandise into Gabe's with you? >> No. So >> I'll go up to Gabe's and see what what they're saying. >> Okay. Okay. So you're saying that you walked into Gabe's? Yeah, I went back into Gabe's, looked for my wallet, and then I came back out. And maybe they thought since I walked in and came right back out with him, maybe they thought I took something. Do you have items from Gabe's? Huh? Do you have items >> I have Five Below. I see I see Gabe's I see Gabe's tags right here in the vehicle. >> That's old stuff. >> That's old stuff? >> That's old stuff. That goes to my niece and nephew. What did you think about that excuse? Please leave a comment. Was it a blatant lie? As officers open the vehicle and uncovered the horrifying truth. It's okay. Would you care if I looked at some of these items inside? I can? All right, I just wanted to double check. What's up, buddy? >> You want to tell me that by guy? Thomas the I swear my whole car looks messed cuz I lost my wallet. And they can even tell you or her that I went back in there looking for my wallet. >> Okay. But you Like I'm saying, here, we'll just step back just for a second. All this stuff goes to my niece and nephew. >> Okay. Do you have Do you have any way to prove that? Do you have any like uh receipts or anything like that for me? Sir, I couldn't have walked out with all this stuff. I mean, I don't know. I don't know if you could or not. I don't know why they would call us. It's mostly all from Five Below. Okay. Well, I mean, there's Gabe's stuff on here and Gabe's called us. >> Gabe's stuff that's been in my car. It goes to my niece and nephew. Where's your ID at? Can I get it? >> Yep. Okay. I hope you're not lying to me. I'm not lying to you. I How could I walk out with that much stuff, sir? I mean, it's it's happened before. No. No. No. If you were to have taken it and it's all less than a thousand dollars and you don't have any warrants or wants for your arrest or anything like that, you wouldn't You'd be just getting a ticket and have to go to court. That'd be There's a couple of ifs there, but are you 100% certain that you didn't take a single thing? Because Gabe's going to tell us. >> Okay, they can tell you. >> Okay. All right, I just It's just weird. They normally don't >> Maybe she also stole from Five Below. I guessed many people thought that way because when nearly was exposed, she said all kinds of things to deflect attention or gain sympathy, even bringing up her family member. But I've been in there I went back in there. Maybe they thought I took something. Not unless he grabbed something. He does have ADHD. And I have been caught at Target with him leaving with stuff. >> Okay. And I've gotten in trouble for it before. Okay. >> I didn't take it. He likes to grab things and take it. And if they had to just see me walk in and walk back out and thinking I've taken something. Okay. Okay. >> go out the The main portion. I went out the way you walk in. Okay. Nothing alarmed. Nothing, you know. Okay. All right, so um your driver's license is suspended but you have driving privileges. What are your privileges? I was on my way to Kroger's to get uh Well, I had to stop and get him his iPad and I'm on my Kroger to get my prescriptions. And where are you coming from? Gabe's and our Five Below. What were you at Five Below for? Some things for him. Since school's out and his ADHD is so bad, I got him a couple things. >> What does it specifically say on your driving privileges that you're allowed to do? That I'm allowed to take care of my kids and wherever I got to go for my kids is fine, work and doctors. And is this your child then? >> Yes, it is. Okay, I got you. And do you have a Do you have your paperwork for your like the suspension paperwork? Is anybody able to get me a picture of that or anything? Yes. Okay. Can I call? Yes, you can. So beyond being a dishonest shoplifter, this woman was also an irresponsible mother and she needed to deal with issues related to her driving privileges. She's calling She's She's suspended with privileges. She says she doesn't have her privilege paperwork. >> Right, right. But she's trying to get a hold of somebody to see what privileges are. >> send a picture. It's in the mail slot. So you're allowed to go shopping? I'm I'm allowed to take care of my kids, go to doctor's appointments, go to the grocery, get my prescriptions, um and go get to and from and get my kids. Did you do any of those things right now? No. What did you do? Well, since we're out of school and his ADHD is so bad, I took him by Gabe's before I went to Kroger for grocery and get him some things to play with. I go to level four. So they didn't have you pushing out a cart? >> Pushing out a cart? >> Uh-huh. I got one more left. Just tell us there's an officer up there. You just got to be straight with us. I Okay, I had the trash can. Thank you. Okay, what else? But the Gabe stuff, seriously, was for my niece and nephew. >> Okay, what about the What >> The baskets, yes. >> and stuff. The baskets and lantern, that's it. Okay, other stuff That's all I needed to know. >> Yes. They're saying there's more stuff. They knew there was stuff that's in here from Gabe's. That was That was it. The rest I got from Five Below. I had those baskets there any Gabe's anything with a Gabe's? All the clothes were from weeks ago. The only thing I took Right, it's hard I'm trying to explain to you No, you took In the trash can I had the baskets. Why don't you show me what you took? Cuz it's really hard for me to believe anything you say since you've already lied to me, so it's unfortunate, but I'm I'm just keeping it straight. Okay, well The baskets Yep. The trash can Yep. The lantern Yep, the lanterns >> sheets Okay. And the rest is clothes. Everything in >> Everything else from Five Below. >> What about everything in this Every No, I was searching for my wallet. That's why everything looks like The woman was issued a criminal summons for theft and was given a court date. Additionally, she received criminal trespass notices for both Gabe's and Five Below. Using lies, excuses, or even a child to avoid responsibility only makes the consequences worse. Honesty and accountability matter because short-term deception always leads to long-term damage. More disturbing, the woman had in fact been trespassed multiple times. Talk to me. What What is your name? Go. On March 30, police responded to a report from Walmart regarding the presence of a woman suspected of shoplifting and upon arrival at the scene, employees revealed that the woman's mental state appeared to be problematic. It's a It's a busy day, so It shouldn't take too long. She I think last night she was being compliant, Okay. I think she's high cuz she knows who we are and she still knows my name. She's back there. Wow. Yeah. Is Ashley Yeah, what is What's her last name? Oh, okay. Yeah, that sounds familiar. Do you know off chance of when she was trespassing here? Okay, no worries. Is that her? No, no. She She's wearing a face mask. Okay. Will you make your way to the back of the store where near the restrooms? Apparently she tossed it, put back in back there. Okay. Like I don't know the officer last time when we got her stuff, I don't know if he checked the purse or not cuz he had her go outside. She's been here two times before and each time last time it was like two grand of her stuff. Jeez. That's ridiculous. Okay. Do you know if she came here in a vehicle or she Not sure. I'm not sure. Okay, no worries. Just by looking at the unpaid merchandise being used openly, it was already enough to show that the woman was completely abnormal and police also raised several suspicions. So, do you think there's a bit of it's a cognitive disease like some sort of like she's just She knows exactly what she's doing. She just loses control of her her functions and stuff. Okay. Okay, got it. Got it. >> [clears throat] >> Do you have anything in your backpack that you haven't paid for? No. That you've taken out of packages. No? No. Okay, do you mind if I look? It's mine. I didn't do anything. >> [clears throat] >> Okay. They've got you on video. All right. So, you just might as well cooperate. It's going to be a lot better for you. I don't understand what you're doing. I'm taking Diana packages. I didn't do anything. Okay. Go ahead and have a seat there. The woman denied all of her actions, and immediately afterward, police verified her behavior, even taking the risk by not using gloves, solely to catch her in the act as quickly as possible. Yeah, you can use that one, yeah. I'm not afraid to go through this crap, so I'm sure if you think I am, but Okay, go ahead and get your backpack. Come with me. Go to the right. Just come over here. Immediately after stepping outside, police obtained additional information confirming that the woman was never authorized to be present there. Take the backpack off, please. So, did they get verified she has been trespassed? They said dispatch did not. They did not see >> up on our I forgot. You forgot you were trespassed? You were told that you were trespassed from here? Yeah, and I forgot. Okay. All right, go ahead and turn around. You're being arrested for criminal trespass cuz you are not supposed to be here at Walmart. Where's the cart with my items? Okay. Okay, do you have anything on your person that you shouldn't have? Anything on your body? Nothing? No? No. Okay. All right, we're going to head up to the security office. Okay.

In the end, the woman was charged with battery on an officer and criminal trespassing once. Repeatedly ignoring boundaries and consequences only escalated the situation, turning minor offenses into more serious charges that could have been avoided through accountability and cooperation. Next, when the shoplifter was a tantrum-throwing Karen. I didn't do anything. Oh, brother. Put your bags down. That's just everything I came in with. I'm just Are you telling me I'm crazy? No, I'm asking why you're behaving like >> in my head? On the 6th of September, 2024, police carried out a surprise operation at the front of Target after they received a report about a woman committing shoplifting there. This was what happened when she appeared. Hey, police, how's it going? Put the bags down. >> do anything. Oh, brother. Put your bags down. >> That's just everything I came in with.

I'm going to cut this backpack off you if you don't take it >> You aren't going to touch. Stop. I'm not >> [screaming] >> even doing anything. I am not doing anything. Her panicked denial seemed illogical. If she truly did nothing wrong, why did she refuse a bag check? She even accused the police. You're not even supposed >> [screaming] >> to put your hands on me without a video. You were [screaming] breaking the law. This is mine. >> [screaming] [screaming] [screaming] [screaming] >> Show me your other hand, ma'am. I wasn't even doing anything. I wasn't doing >> [screaming] >> anything. Stop resisting. I wasn't. Oh, [ __ ] I was sitting on my stuff. That's all I was doing. We got two wristbands for you.

I don't That one is hers. Yes, sir. I just This is all yours? Yeah. This is yours? Yes. I don't know if the husky The husky stuff I think is probably from Deep River or something. Yeah, this is probably all from Deep River. In fact, even the bag holding the stolen items belonged to the store and had not been paid for. Yet, the woman was under the illusion that the police were not allowed to check her bag. Oh, [ __ ] Do you have Do you have clothes on underneath? You're taking stuff that doesn't even belong search my bag. Oh, whichever one name? They're going through all of the property to determine what you took. Yes, they are. >> taking anything. Steph.

Put your feet in the car. Turn and face the front. I know. [screaming] Stephanie, face the front. Face the front. Not a single tear was shed. The woman sulked like a child even when the police stated her real age. You're 40 years old. >> [laughter] >> And you already know. >> [laughter] >> This is harassment. >> It's not harassment. Yes, it is. >> How is it harassment if you took properties that didn't Stop. Just stop. So, I'm asking you to do is >> It is wrong. What do you expect me to do? Steal. And stop. >> [laughter] >> You know. Uh [laughter] I have no idea why you're behaving like this. Guys, stop. This isn't right. >> [laughter and gasps] >> It isn't right. >> So, this isn't harassment. You brought [laughter] this upon yourself. >> is. No, it's when you steal, you bring the attention upon yourself. Yes, it is. How is it harassment? And I'm [laughter] just asking you. >> Are you telling me I'm crazy? No, I'm asking why you're behaving like this. >> all in my head? No, never said that. >> [laughter] >> I'm just trying to figure out who you are. >> [clears throat] [laughter] >> Is there a reason why you're crying the way you are? The suspect was charged with felony theft and resisting arrest. When denial replaces accountability, even childish defiance cannot change the truth. Evidence will always speak louder than excuses. Even worse, the next shoplifters were only teenagers. We give you everything, we can go. How old are you? We can give you any information, we can go. No. No, you don't have to put your hands on me, okay? Why you hanging up? Put your hands behind your back. On the 12th of May, 2024, police were dispatched to Walmart after receiving a report about two teenagers who had spent several hours hiding items in their bags. When approached, both were immediately taken to the LP room without showing any guilt at all. You shoplifters. How old are you? How old are you? Answer my questions or you're going to have handcuffs, you pick. Can I go? Go on. He's asking you. I'm asking you a question. How old are you? Okay, that's what they said. This is going to be quick. Okay, we are making this not quick. That's the thing. Nobody had told you. You didn't tell me anything. Well, they got to read them their rights. >> Okay, I'm I'm asking you as a human as a person to person. If you want to get an attitude, you're not going to win this. I promise you. >> an attitude. You're the only one raising your voice. >> Because you refused to answer any questions. So, if you want to end up in cuffs, we can do that. We can make it super easy. Either way, I have paperwork to do. So, if you want to go home, you can tell me your name. If not, you can go to jail. The police had even clearly stated that the girls had a chance to leave, yet they seemed completely unaware that they had done anything serious. You're not free to go. How are we detained? Because they're accusing you of shoplifting. So, until we figure out what's going on, you are not free to go. >> figured that out. Okay. >> They already got this, though. It doesn't matter. You still committed a crime. So, again, you're not free to go. So, do you have ID on you? I'm 19, so I don't have an ID. Okay, so how old are you? Well, I'm about If we give you everything, we can go? How old are you? We can give you any information and we can go? >> No. I'll see you about that.

So, are you refusing to identify yourself? You haven't given me a chance. They have to ask you if this is true or not. So, how old are you? I thought we were supposed to see a video. You're not supposed to say anything. Well, I'm not so They said Oh, yeah, now you don't know. Why are you trying to act all tough? We got the deputies here now. They are in charge. They are in charge now. This is their building. Can we do the video? You're not You don't have to say anything. Both suspects showed no respect to those standing in front of them, acting as if they were entitled to behave that way. Keep watching and share your thoughts about these girls. Why are you making this harder than it has to be? Hey, this is so uh we're already about to catch the bus. Okay, well now you're going to miss the bus. Sorry. >> we knew we were going to miss the bus. Okay, sorry. Don't Don't commit a crime. Too late. I know it's too late. I didn't That's why I'm here. >> say too late. You just did. >> No, I said too late. Okay. So, how old are you? This voice can I figure out where they're going? Figure out where they're going. Yeah. They're free to go. Huh? They're free to go.

Take your bag off, or I'm going to make you stand up. You can do the same. Okay, but can we look at that and see if No, you have no right to look at that. You should have been telling us this whole time. >> Okay, we're past that point. You refused to come inside until I got here. You refused to give me the information that I need to complete my report. The situation had already been tense, but the girls showed no intention of calming it down. Instead, everything turned chaotic when one of them resisted. >> We're going to do it this way. I don't want to play like this. Don't play like this. I don't want to play. Hello. Hold on, you don't have to put your hands on me. Okay, well you Hey, why you hanging up? Put your hands behind your back. You're not tightening up. You're not tightening up, or I'll charge you another charge, and I'll put you straight in the van. What are you charging me with? I'm a minor. What are you doing? Dude, dumbass. So, I'm the dumbass? [laughter] Shut up. I did this for what? Two 50 ones shows two females detained. This is my bag. Okay, so now we're at this point. What's your name? Do you feel this is necessary? No. Was you not answering my question for the past 10 minutes necessary? This could have been very simple. You could have given me your name and I could have grabbed the information and just been on your way. But instead, now both of you are in cuffs. I don't know what we do, John Doe. I don't know what we do, Jane Doe and all that jazz. Um should we get a picture? So, are you going to give us your name? Names? Hello. How many more times do I need to ask? Shortly after, the police checked the girls' information and stopped her suspicious actions through her phone. Give me your phone. Go ahead. All right, she's 18. What about the other one? She might not have a name for her. I can't find it at the moment, but I found the 18-year-old. I'm being cooperative. However, sorry, I was on a call. Nothing but They're just detained for now. Okay. Come on up over here against the wall for me. Do you have anything on you I need to know about? No. Anything's going to stick me, stab me, anything like that? Turn and face the wall.

Uh-huh. >> [clears throat] >> Where's my wallet, too? In the end, they were charged with petit theft. Shortly after, the police checked the girl's information and stopped her suspicious actions through her phone. What do you think about cases like this? Share your thoughts in the comments, and don't forget to like and subscribe so you won't miss the next video. Even more terrifying, there's no way to predict what these shoplifters might do. Hey, hey, no, no, no, no. Dude, he's being kind of weird, but he hands me that full 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. Okay. Hi, sir. I'm a cop. Let's go. Let's go. Come on. Come on. This way, guys. You need to sit back, sir. Yeah, probably. Unless you guys did something crazy. You didn't do anything crazy, did you? No. No, no. You shouldn't be using your cell phone, sir. 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. Where do you guys go? Come here, guys. Cuz that's the way it is. Have a seat. You got anything on you I need to know about? All right, your hands in your pockets. It's not all I'm going to pat you down real quick, all right? That's cool. Nothing on you that's going to poke me, stab me? No. Okay, go ahead and have a seat. Nothing on you that I need to know about? >> I do have this uh No. I have this [ __ ] I stole here. I get bag and [ __ ] What's in there? He's a Richie. They only care for the blue cards. The blue cards? Yeah. Go ahead and have a seat 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? Xavier. What's your name? Xavier. Xavier what? Willis. Cooperate, my man. If you don't cooperate, I'm going to put you in handcuffs. Xavier Willis. I'll give you my I'll give you my real social. Figured that was not right. Are we going [music] to get you? Unless something crazy happened. Okay. That's water, not just stealing. You didn't think so? Look at her little fancy bag. You watched you walk over and put an item in the bag off the shelf. This is an aggravated robbery, please. 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 horrifying truth was revealed. Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! No! No! No! No! Oh, [ __ ] Put it Get back! Get back! No! No! No! No! Same thing, stop! All right. He's got a gun! He's got Put your hands now! Don't touch him! Do not touch anything! I'm not! I'm not! You want some, bro? 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 to go BCI for, but I don't mean there's no evidence really, but I mean, it's attempted murder. It is attempted murder. I don't know. Oh, he would have got me. For sure. For a simple For a simple Well, you know, he had a He had a warrant that he lied to you and lied about. I'm good. I'm good. Yeah. I'm good. Did you have a laser on it? When you When you pulled it out? >> Oh, yeah. Did it Yeah. >> shine at you? Mhm. Yeah, cuz that was the first thing I saw. There's mags loaded. >> But he Yeah, he racked it. He like pulled the trigger and went to rack it. >> Conrad Conrad You know, I came over cuz I I got up and I was like this. Conrad's on him like, "Get off of him." But then the kid gave up. I'm about to call uh Do you need any medics, needed? No. I He got struck a couple times, but I don't think he He had a set of cover. Good. All right. Dude, dude. He's being kind of weird, but he hands me back a full of pills. Okay. So, I do pat him down, but I I didn't get his pouch he had. So, as I'm sitting there, Elijah Bell's name finally tells me [music] his then He forward to just told me You got any warrants? I didn't even He's armed and dangerous. As soon as he does that, he pulls his gun out, puts it to my head, pulls the trigger, doesn't go off. All her stuff, let's get her four minute 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 summons. Did she do anything during all this? >> I mean, not Not the the Just the theft, right? She has two We can get Get her and cut her. Move her and cut her. Do you have any bullets in your pocket? She had two bullets. Make sure she's not on her disability. If she is, hit her with that, too. >> 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. Not stopping at theatrics, the woman even physically assaulted the employee. You're hurting me. Stop. Please stop hurting me. Stop. [screaming] All status >> He's afraid. 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're on left. Here's the smart placement. Let me talk to him. About? 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. >> unhand me. Let go of the purse. >> me. I'm You're hurting me. Listen to him. 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. Please stop hurting me. Stop. [screaming] You're hurting me. Get Get him. Hand her a second. Relax. I >> [screaming] >> Stop. Stop. Stop. Stop. Thus, the woman's attempts to assert authority were [music] completely ineffective under the law. At this point, she should have complied with the officer's instructions. >> [screaming] >> You done? Yes, I am. Okay, we're going to stand you up. I'm going to sit you in the car so I can do my investigation. Double lock. 511, one in custody. You can clear the channel. You guys good? Yep. Come on. Bring your knees to your stomach. Bring your knees to your stomach. Let's go. 1 2 3 >> [laughter] >> Is this hers? Yeah, just leave it out here. You guys throw her in the car. That way. Lock. You got Yep. Did you release the channel already? Yeah. I don't know. I'm not sure where she is, too. I clipped all of that. Immediately after escorting the woman outside, the officers interviewed the employee to get a detailed account of her actions. So, what happened in the back room? Saw her put stuff in her purse, put stuff in her dress. She's 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 empty hangers. Um they're in here. Everything's in here? >> Yes. Yes. >> Okay. Do you have anything on you that you shouldn't have? No, move. I really didn't want to call you guys, but she she was uh She is what it is, so she's going to catch the retail theft and the resisting. This is her All of this is paid for? That's all that's paid. Yeah, it's one dress. See, there was a pocket on that side. Go and sit down in the car. Have a seat. Butt first. Have a seat. Inside the car, have a seat. >> get inside the car. >> How much stuff do you have in there? Scoot up. Oh. All the way, watch your foot. >> All the way, watch your foot. The reason I showed up is if that 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. My uh loss prevention 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. Did she She was attempting to leave when you said, "Hey, I'm loss prevention. I work for Goodwill." >> When we were back here, she she she's like, "I'm leaving. I'm You're going to go to jail. We're going to get your license plate number." Okay. >> 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, ma'am. Relax. You okay? You didn't hurt it at all? No. You got it straightened up, nothing like that? I don't know. All right. >> [clears throat] >> All right. Just take a breath. Just stay in the car. Stay in the car. >> [laughter] >> 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 hurt from where he knocked me on the table. Who knocked you on the table? I didn't do anything to make you do that. >> need medical attention? Ma'am, do you need any medical attention? Yes or no question. >> No, no. Okay. Good. What What's your leg? Just go ahead and call him for just just a precautionary. 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 the numbers, WW previous trespass. History in reference to theft. You okay? He's going through 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. 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. Good. It's a yes or no. Do you want to talk to me or not? I need to call my lawyer half first. You're not going to call anybody. You're currently in police custody. 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, then we'll have a conversation on why I 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. Do you Do you want to Do you want to talk to me knowing that you can have a lawyer present? Or not. That's basically the question. Do 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 questioning. Then what happens to me? Hm? What happens to me? I'd go with everything that I've already seen transpire and what the loss prevention manager seen. 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. 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 your question. Back inside the store, a female officer reviewed the woman's actions with the employee to clarify the sequence of events. This side of the >> I'm over here watching her between the racks. Okay. Because uh This is the second time she's going in? >> Yes. This is the second time. Okay. Um the first time she went in, she stole two dresses and second time, two dresses again. Okay. Once she crossed point of sale, I apprehended her right at the door. Um I don't wait for her to get to the parking lot because Yeah. they run on me 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 cuz that's part of their protocol and 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 chest 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 Miss Sheila, 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 that 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 can do the investigation where me, you and all staff >> is is safe. Why would you say that? I'm a police officer in a marked uniform. The fact of the matter is the whole thing and I was afraid of the whole thing. >> Miss Burr, 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 feign innocence only worsens consequences. Next, the police were fully aware that the woman was hiding something. Why you Why you even trying to Yeah. Doesn't alert you or something? Please just I got a newborn baby at home. I don't have no family >> you but there's no way you can tell On July 14th, 2023, police received an alert from traffic cameras about a vehicle using a stolen dealer plate. The moment officers approached, she immediately launched into her explanation before they could say a word. Hey, how you doing? He just told me about your plate. >> Yeah. Yeah, he said so my friend worked for the dealership. He said he sold the company. He just text and I'm like, "What?" So I got my plate back here. Look. Just be safe. The plates are He just told me.

The cuz my other my car my other car got totaled. Okay. >> I had a red Nissan Kicks and it got totaled. So I had the plate from since last year. In reality, this was highly suspicious since she had placed another car's plate on a vehicle whose plate was reported stolen. So where was the rightful plate for the car she was actually driving? So let's just deal with the tag. Whose tag is it? So it was my friend's tag, him and his wife. So he sold the the car dealership that he had, he said. And he transferred over to his business partner that he was businesses with. So he called me this morning, but I wasn't able to answer. So he just text me and said, "Just be safe. The plates were just reported stolen." He said, "Tag is reported stolen and don't drive it anymore. I no longer own the company." And what? And lost rights to the tag. Okay. >> So, that's what the message said. So, he sold it. So, he's not in business with his friend no more. I got you. I don't know what happened. I'm not getting involved, but I was just like, "All right, let me get my keys from my friend and let me go and try to get my plates." But, I was like, "Should I put my plates on?" Yeah, but Yeah, is is it expired? Yeah, it's August 2015. >> you put an expired tag on than a stolen one, right? >> from here. I'm from New York. >> you. I'm trying to figure out what I should do. Right. >> But, I got like a little Do you have something to take it off? Yeah, I'll take it off. Don't worry. >> Okay, and you'll put that one on for me? Yep. Well, yeah, I'll put it on for you. So, I'm safer driving with that? Yes. Well, let me check you out and figure everything out and then I'll be right back with you, okay? At this point, with backup officers on the scene, she was asked to step out of the car to make handling the situation easier. Yet, she still had no idea how serious the situation had become. This problem, let me get you to step out one time. Yeah, just step out. You're not in trouble. Oh, I'm like, "What I do?" You don't mind if you come to the front? All right. Is there any reason your car smells like weed? Uh yeah, it would. I'm not going to lie to you. What's what's going on? I just picked something up, but nothing major. >> Picked something up? What did you pick up? >> Yeah, just a small Okay. What did you pick up? You know, we ain't worried about a little bit of weed. I'm just Oh, yeah, yeah, just a little bit. Nothing major. I'm just I told you I just came here to my friend to get my keys so I could go take care of these plates cuz I didn't want to get in trouble for the plates. He just told me literally So, this is your friend's tag? Yeah, this is my friend's tag. So, basically, I got my car, right? When I got the car, I didn't have I had the tags, but I told you my red car got my red car got towed. Okay. So, he lent me the tags until I got my insurance and together. So, he text me and I told him to call me. Okay. It's been on my car. >> but why would you put that tag on there? Because he told me to. He told me I'm good. He got the insurance. He told me I could borrow one until I got my insurance and stuff together. >> a dealer plate. So, another thing is that he's not allowed He's not supposed to do that unless you're an employee of the company. Well, he's the employee of the company. >> just not. He just lent it to me, to be honest. >> I got you. Her story about the car could have been plausible, but relying solely on evidence shown through her phone was never enough. At this point, she also had to face other emerging suspicions. All right, so how much weed do you got in the car? Just a little bit or a lot? >> a just a just a little bit. >> Okay. This belongs to your Nissan Kicks. Yeah, that's what I said. I told you. Yeah, so >> But my Nissan Kicks is totaled. I got you. So, actually you wouldn't be able to put this on the back of this car cuz it's a whole totally different car. >> So, what can I do? Transfer. Right now, you just going to have to try to get another tag or something. So, can I still go down there? Where is the tag that belongs on this car? I got this from a used dealership. >> And they didn't give it to you. They didn't give me no They gave me a temporary tag. But you never got the the >> No, it was recently. They gave me a temporary tag and that's how come Okay. No biggie. Well, I'm going to search this car anyway because it smell like weed, but like I said, if it's just a little bit, I ain't worried about that. All right? >> No, I I told you my friend had I I could come and talk to you, to be Okay, well talk to me. My friend had the car yesterday. >> Okay. She went and picked something up. I got the car back and I could show you what It It looked like a little bit to me. >> Come on, come on, come on. I'm staying calm right now. I'm about to look. the armrest. >> So, you don't know what's in there. I don't I never went in it. Okay. That's fine. Just stand in front of my car. Just give me a second. Oh, okay. Oh. During the search, police discovered that the amount of marijuana was far from the small quantity she had claimed. Right here. Right here. Right here. So you're saying she didn't know that was there? She said she didn't know it was there. She didn't say she picked it up. Just step over here for me. Oh, what? Yeah, I got pulled over. Just step right here for me. >> I'm not trying to stand here. Yeah, just over here for me. I know you ain't going to Just step right here. That's why I'm not trying to stand in front of it. I was just trying to stand right here. I'm not Okay, I know you ain't going to run away. Oh. If I got to chase you, you're going to do it. No, I'm not running. I promise you. Like I said, I don't smoke that much. I know she asked me to borrow my car. She said, "Cool." I was coming back to give my give my keys to my friend. She didn't even tell me about it. She's at work. She ended work at 12:00. I was going to do my hair and drop my friend off wherever she had to go. She lives in the projects. So that was it. So I would have no reason to lie. I'm very up-front, very honest. There's nothing else in my car that I know of. Doubt it. Nothing. No weapons, no nothing. I'm not that type of person. But just with the car, you know you let people borrow your car? Mhm. You're still responsible for it when you get behind it, okay? It was clear that she kept trying to access the car. Her anxiety showing she feared being caught, but it was too late. Police had already made their decision. So right now you're going to be placed under arrest for marijuana. But if this weighs under an ounce, I'm going to let you go on a ticket. But if it's over Please, I got a newborn baby. I don't I don't have no family >> you, but there's no way you can tell me this is in your middle console and you ain't know that. >> No, what I told That's in possession. No, no. Can I Can I tell you? I'm not going to lie to you. This is too tight on my right on my left wrist. Uh and I just sprained my wrist too recently. Um Yeah, a little bit. So, maybe cuz of the watch? Maybe cuz of Um, to be I told I told you, I'm not going to lie to you. I'm being very upfront. My friend had my borrowed the car yesterday. When I got the car back, today I just literally left the hair salon. You can look at my GPS. >> I got you. She asked me, she said, "I left something in the car. Can you drop it off to me?" I didn't look in the glove compartment because my main concern was when I got the text message from my friend and his wife, it was about the plates. And I said, "I did not want to get myself in any [ __ ] So, let me come get my key and go and take care of the plates." All right. So, right now >> baby at Right now, because you threw that tag on the back of the car, I also concealed >> I didn't throw it on there. It's been on there for months. >> But, it's been on your car, you put it on there, right? Yeah, yeah, the guy put my friend put >> I'm saying that's called concealing the identity of a motor vehicle. Okay. I didn't I didn't know that. >> so, let's let's let's figure everything out. I'm going to let you know what's going on. I'm not going to keep you in the dark, okay? >> So, I got to go? You want to book me? You're going to go to 150th You're going to go to our police department and then and then once we uh figure out how much this weighs, cuz this looks like it might be over an ounce. The woman was arrested and charged with possession of more than an ounce of marijuana, as well as acquiring a license plate with the intent to conceal a motor vehicle. Attempting to cover up illegal activity only escalates the consequences. Cooperating fully with authorities is the only way to minimize legal repercussion.
