CAN YOU CALL THE REAL POLICE? CAN YOU CALL THE BELL POLICE? >> Everyone knows every store has cameras and security. Yet some shoplifterss still dare to push their luck only to realize their luck ran out faster than they could run when the cops arrived. These are the moments when shoplifterss push their luck at Walmart, Target, and other stores. Our videos are made purely for entertainment and never meant to humiliate anyone. Like and subscribe to support us. Starting from this simple traffic violation, this deceitful mother delivered a shocking surprise. >> It's a blue dre. It's on a rack right by the register of a bunch of miscellaneous stuff. >> Well, it could be from Target. >> Double check. And then if it's a sample. >> Yeah. >> On December 24th, 2024, officers stopped a car showing suspicious signs. But the incident didn't end there. The moment they saw the driver, they realized she was a familiar face. And what unfolded next turned the situation into something far more explosive. >> Hello. >> Hello. How you doing? >> Wonderful. >> You got your uh driver's license? >> Yes. >> Your tag's expired? >> Yes, I know. All right. You have a registration for the car? It's the old registration >> cuz I'm having a problem getting my mom >> cuz I lost my um my title to it and I did a title loan in Georgia. So, I'm having a problem getting my stuff registered here in Florida. >> All right. Do you have a driver's license? >> No. the last photo took my um driver's license.

Old you look awfully familiar. >> Yeah, you do. on target, correct? >> Y >> I just left from something. >> No, the line was too long. I was actually going there to change some stuff. Then I picked up a blue dress which I put back and cuz the line was too long. I was going to be right there by the register and then I left out. >> So this woman wasn't just involved in a traffic violation. She admitted she had been at Target before. At that moment, officers approached the Kohl's employee and the story they heard was nothing like what the woman had claimed. >> All right. She she um came in with this bag and she had something from another store as well cuz we don't sell this and she was putting stuff in here and she >> actually walked out with stuff. >> Yeah. In this bag, which we sell. She grabbed it when she first came in. >> You know roughly how much? Um yeah, well after I rang this up, um there's some stuff I'm not able to make out, but for the most part, this is the stuff that >> Oh, that's just that. >> No, not this. It was um like a different size, different color type stuff, but this is like the brand and everything. >> Okay, I see. >> Yeah. >> Um >> cuz the exact items we just kind of had one of. >> So like I can get like a different size or different >> the car stop. Were you able to jump in and >> Yeah. >> identify? >> Yeah. >> All right. One second. Um, >> were there were there three other people with her? >> I only saw two other people. There was a younger girl looked like with headphones on and then there was somebody in the passenger seat when they but it was only those two that were inside. Her and then I guess it looked like her daughter with headphones on and then there was somebody in the back seat when they drove off. She had like a cigarette smoking right when she got in the car. The moment they received that information, combined with her current violations, officers at the scene made their move before she had any chance to slip away again. >> Is that her? >> Um, yeah, >> that one right there. >> Yes, she was >> 10 alpha 32 10 for an ID. What are you doing? >> Yeah. >> All right. So, here's something. Here's the deal. >> I'll let you kids get your jewelry stuff. Um, take out time property belongs to Kohl's back to >> Okay, but that's the thing. I didn't I didn't take anything. I put the dress back. It's on the It's on the rat side of register. That's what I'm saying. I didn't take anything. >> Okay. >> I didn't take anything. >> Bear with us a few minutes. Okay. >> No problem. >> But either way, you're driving. >> I know. Regardless of what happened here, you're good here. >> Yeah, I'm good. >> No problem. >> I'm going to run over there. I'll try to get over. >> Okay. No problem. >> But you're saying it was a dress. Did you go back on the rack? >> It was a blue dress. I got in line. They'll see. I got in line. The blue dress is still hanging there. It's on a rack with a bunch of uh like uh miscellaneous stuff. It's a blue dress. It's on a rack right by the register with a bunch of miscellaneous stuff. Okay. >> She insisted she hadn't taken anything, insisting that if anything happened, it went exactly as she said. But the truth hit fast. Officers soon confirmed the lies when they and a person then they found the bag she had stashed in the car. >> Yeah, they right here with me. We standing right here by almost right here by the second inch by the second. >> Okay. >> The bag I check on your bearded dragon. airport. You car? >> No. What I'm going to do is >> the car can't be driven >> because it's unregistered. Tire got to come up with all this nonsense. >> But rather than to cut a break cuz it's, you know, hard. >> Find a parking spot. Get a few. >> Okay. Even now, she stayed calm, thinking only the car violation mattered. What she didn't realize was that her theft had already been uncovered. Yet, she kept trying to defend herself. >> You okay with the car going to her? They'll put She's going to All right. She's going to put the car over here. They got to tow it later to go get it. >> Okay. Okay. All right. Okay. >> Uh yeah. So, all that perfume and cologne and everything that belongs to Kohl's that wasn't paid for. So, it's probably >> they don't they don't have that on video cuz I I they don't have that on video at all. >> Do you have a receipt for that? >> The thing I came in the store, right? I came in there and I had that stuff. I wanted to exchange. I picked up a blue dress. I seen when the lady actually got on the phone. I picked up a blue dress. The line was too long. I put that back and I proceeded to my car. They don't have anything. [Applause] She had taken it all from mini to full-size bottles, all high-end brands like Versace. And none of it was paid for. It was clear the value of what she walked out with wasn't small. >> God, it's a lot of stuff. Just write down what it is. I know the receipts don't always say what exactly it is. That's not ours. >> This not ours. >> That's from another store. >> Okay. Okay. >> It might be a sample. It could be from Target. >> Double check. And then if it's a sample, >> so,258 board this out. >> Uh, just print it up for me. She was charged with shoplifting and driving without a valid license or registration. Trying to downplay or lie about criminal behavior never works. Even if someone thinks minor traffic issues will protect them, attempting theft is always caught and leads to serious consequences. Next, meet the have nothing queen herself. >> I don't have anything. >> Put your hands behind your back now. >> NO, I'M NOT PUTTING my hands behind my back. >> I don't have nothing. I didn't I DON'T GOT NOTHING FROM DOLLAR GENERAL. >> GO AHEAD AND SEE. >> I don't have anything. No. >> On June 3rd, 2024, police directly confronted a woman after receiving a report of a shoplifting incident at Dollar General. The moment they faced her, problems immediately arose as the officers hadn't said a word and she denied everything. I don't have anything. >> I'm going to tell you one thing. Put your hands behind your back. >> No, don't touch me. I don't have nothing. >> You I'm going TO TOUCH >> NO, I DON'T GOT NOTHING. >> Put your hands behind your back. >> You came all the way up here. >> Put your behind. >> No, I don't have anything. >> Put your hands behind your back now or I'm GOING TO >> NO, I'M NOT PUTTING my hands behind my back. >> PUT YOUR HANDS BEHIND my back now or I'm going to tase you. >> No. No, I don't have anything. >> Put your hands behind your back or I'm going to tase you. >> No. What you want? >> Listen, you're being detained right now. >> Being detained for what? Because you just came from Dollar General. >> No, I I No, sir. I I just came from Dollar General and I was returning something. >> I was returning this, sir. >> Clearly, the woman was completely uncooperative, even as the officers remained patient and issued warnings with a taser. Yet, immediately afterward, she brought up something that contradicted what she had just said. >> I said, "Put your hand behind your back." >> I'm not putting my hand behind my back. >> If you resist, you're going to get another charge. >> No, don't touch me. Do not touch me. Don't touch me. Don't touch me. Don't touch me. >> Don't touch me. Okay. Go to THAT HOUSE RIGHT NOW. I DID NOT COME FROM NO DOLLAR GENERAL. >> OKAY.

Don't walk up on me. >> I'm going to tell you again. >> I don't have anything. I didn't come from Dollar General. >> Resist. >> Okay. I can't call another police. I live right there. I didn't go anywhere. No, I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING. NO, I'M NOT PUTTING MY HANDS BEHIND MY BACK. DON'T TOUCH ME. DON'T TOUCH ME. Don't touch me. >> Don't touch me. >> Don't touch me. >> Resist. >> Don't touch me. >> Resist. >> Don't touch me. >> Resist. >> DON'T TOUCH ME. I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING. DO NOT EXCUSE ME. >> Do not resist. >> Excuse me, sir. >> Do not resist. >> Man right now. I don't have anything. And now she was handcuffed for attempting to flee. But her chaos didn't stop as she even tried to seek help from anyone nearby. >> Excuse me. Don't knock on the door. >> Excuse me. >> Like I said, >> excuse me, sir. Can you go knock on the door? Can you go knock on the door? Excuse me. Can you knock on the door right now? >> Let go. >> Excuse me. >> Let go. No. >> Let go. >> Can you knock on the door? No. Can you knock on the door right there? I don't have nothing. I don't have nothing. NO, I DON'T HAVE NOTHING. Do not touch me. No, I didn't do anything. Don't touch me. I don't have anything. I don't have anything. Don't touch me. DON'T TOUCH ME. I'M NOT GOING NOWHERE. >> I DIDN'T TOUCH no Dollar General. I just was walking down the street. >> I DIDN'T GO DOLLAR GENERAL. NO, I'M NOT GOING NOWHERE. >> NO, DON'T TOUCH ME. >> DON'T TOUCH ME. >> Don't touch me. Don't touch me. >> I don't have nothing. I didn't I DON'T GOT NOTHING FROM DOLLAR GENERAL. >> Go ahead and see. >> I don't have anything. NO. NO, I DON'T HAVE NOTHING, SIR. NO, I DON'T GOT NOTHING. >> GO AHEAD AND GO INSIDE. >> Excuse me. CAN YOU GO GET THAT MAIL from right there, >> ma'am? LISTEN. >> NO, I DON'T have nothing. I don't have nothing. >> Listen. >> The woman clearly believed in her own power. Even while handcuffed and sitting next to the patrol car, she simply couldn't believe that what was happening was actually real. >> No. CALL THE REAL POLICE. NO. CALL THE POLICE. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. >> I don't have nothing. I don't have nothing. Listen, you just said THEY >> I DON'T HAVE NO, I DIDN'T COME FROM THE DOLLAR GENERAL. >> YOU'RE GOING TO GET MORE CHARGES. >> NO, I DIDN'T COME FROM NO DOLLAR GENERAL. NO, NO, NO. CALL THE REAL POLICE. I STAY RIGHT THERE. I didn't do nothing. I didn't come FROM NO DOLLAR GENERAL. BYE. >> GO INSIDE. >> NO, NO, NO. I'm asking you nicely. Go inside. >> I didn't come FROM DOLLAR GENERAL. I WAS JUST WALKING DOWN THE STREET. NO. Excuse me. >> Okay. >> CAN YOU CALL THE REAL POLICE? I'M ASKING you to go inside. >> CAN YOU CALL THE REAL POLICE? >> I'M ASKING YOU TO GO >> CALL THE REAL POLICE. >> I'm asking you to go inside very nicely. >> No, don't touch me. Don't touch me. >> I'm asking you. >> I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING. Don't touch me. >> I'm asking you real nicely TO GO INSIDE. >> ANDRE. >> OKAY, you're going TO GO INSIDE. >> ANDRE, >> COME ON. GO INSIDE. >> ANDRE, >> GO INSIDE. >> ANDRE. >> At this moment, the officer searched her bag and found the nothing she had mentioned. Everything inside was unpaid merchandise the store had reported this this store. I didn't steal nothing from no dollar store. I was walking down the street. I didn't go to the dollar store. >> All right. So, I already confirmed anyways that you were at the store even though you lied to me. >> Okay. I wasn't at the store. You can LET ME GO. I WAS RIGHT I was right over there. I was not at the store. >> You were inside the store AND THEY CONFIRMED >> NO, I WASN'T in the store. I wasn't in the store. >> What's your first name? >> Beverly Williams. You can let me out. I don't have nothing. >> Beverly Williams. >> Yeah. >> You got a men initial. >> Dang. >> Okay. What's your date of birth? >> 4388. I'll stay right there. You can let me go. I didn't go to no dollar store. >> 430. >> 43088. >> Okay. What's your phone number? >> Why? >> Tell him to come and get me out of here >> again. 201 >> I don't have nothing. >> Well, you keep lying. I asked you if you went in the store. You said no. >> No, I didn't go in the store. >> You were in the camera in the store. >> No. No, I didn't go in the store. And so, >> you are in on the camera inside the store. >> No, I didn't go in the store. >> Okay. You were in >> I didn't go in the store. Even with everything so clearly laid out, the woman still believed she had nothing and continued making defiant remarks that went against the officer's calm demeanor. >> I wasn't at Dollar General. >> You keep saying you weren't, but the cameras say otherwise. >> No, I wasn't at Dollar General. You didn't see me at no Dollar General on no cameras. Let me out of here. I didn't take anything from the store. >> No, ma'am. We're being You're detained for right now as long as we're investigating this crime. >> Okay. I can't call another police eye. >> The other police officer is the one that's at the store trying to investigate everything. He'll be able to be the one that you talk to. Okay. >> Sir, you just tried to give me HIV. Do not touch me. >> The woman, Beverly Williams, was charged with one count of resisting arrest. She remains innocent until proven guilty in accordance with the law. Overconfidence and denial in the face of clear evidence only escalate consequences. Accepting responsibility early can prevent unnecessary conflict and legal trouble. If you think this resistance was intense, just look at this display of maternal instinct. >> Bro, YOU RAN MY BRO. >> I SWEAR TO GOD. >> NO, LEAVE ME ALONE. NO, >> I I'm doing I want everybody bad, [ __ ] Not y'all. On June 1st, 2024, police received a call from Walmart reporting two women who showed unclear, suspicious behavior while purchasing items. When officers arrived, everyone had already been brought into loss prevention, and the women were trying to offer a chaotic mix of excuses. >> We're all together. All us was at the register together. Yes, we were. >> All us. Those are my kids. Those are minors. First of all, you don't have to talk to me right now. >> You really don't have to talk to me. >> Please. >> No. Get out. >> Go ahead and step out, sir. >> All right. >> It's not a question. >> Well, I don't want him to step out. >> I didn't ask what you wanted. >> All right. Go ahead with it. >> I don't want him out there with that dude out there and nobody's out there cuz he's going to antagonize him and then if my husband hit him, y'all going to try to take my husband. Period. >> So, somebody need to stand out there. I'm sure. >> Okay. I can just grab a cart so we can get this part started. >> Both women tried to use their families as shields, but the moment the unrelated people stepped outside, the officers moved in and chaos erupted instantly. >> Your hands behind your back. >> Why are you trying to take my phone? What the hell? Man, mama know what my MOTHER BREAK. >> STOP RESISTING. >> I CAN'T BREAK MY ARM. YOU'RE STEALING MY ARM. >> YOU'RE OKAY. STOP RESISTING. STOP. Stop fighting. >> Let go my arm, bro. >> I'm [ __ ] >> I'm sing right now. >> I'm definitely swearing.

WHAT THE WRONG WITH YOU? >> YOU'RE UNDER ARREST. >> I DON'T CARE. I DON'T CARE, BRO. I DON'T CARE. ME NEITHER. >> I DON'T CARE. THE WOMAN already had no intention of cooperating, and that became clearer by the second. Even to the point where she believed she was the one holding the power in that moment. >> Get out my face. I can talk if I want to. It's called freedom of speech. >> They say you don't want to. >> So like I said, freedom of speech. I said I DON'T WANT TO TALK TO Y'ALL. >> THEN STOP. >> So get the out my face. >> Point. GIVE ME MY OTHER SHOE NOW. GIVE ME MY OTHER SHOE NOW. GET ME MY other shoe now. >> MY OTHER SHOE NOW. >> GET ME MY OTHER SHOE NOW. >> They ain't going to >> No, they going they going to edit that out cuz Misha was just sitting there and that officer just looked at her and my baby just looked at her and she tried to snatch my baby phone and then just stab her around her arm >> like no. Okay, I'll give you >> And if my baby got any injuries, I'm suing. >> Okay, >> sir. Can you give me my other shoe? I don't want to talk to him, too. I only want to talk to you. >> The hell wrong with you? Like, come on. >> Get the out my face. BOTH OF Y'ALL. I DON'T WANT TO TALK TO NEITHER ONE OF YOU. My child ain't even be never been in trouble. Like, what the [ __ ] about him? >> He ain't playing [ __ ] You don't act like that with people. >> Everything grew worse because of the woman's actions. And even her mother outside stubbornly tried to blame the officers despite having witnessed everything herself. >> And cuz you just told me that >> she was she's going to jail >> for what? >> At this point, it's going to be resisting. >> HOW THE LADY GRABBED her >> and she was trying to hand me her phone. >> You want to listen or >> No, I don't.

As soon as he get it, I'm freaking done. >> I don't get too Don't look at me either. >> You don't grab on people like that. I've been sitting here the whole time. >> Who are you talking to? >> You >> now shut the up. >> Don't respond to me. >> Okay. Whatever you want. >> Period. Point blank blank.

I got my string. I got need string after this. >> I'm probably going to need new friend. >> Yeah, right. >> Yep. You're going to be trespassed from me here. You can't come back. >> Um, >> you're going to the refund. It's coming. It'll be here in a minute. >> Okay. >> And then that's it. Your daughter, I'm assuming, is going to go to jail for at least resisting and probably retail theft. >> Man, come on. Be real with me. >> So, normally we say, "Turn around, put your hands behind your back, and you do it." That's it. It stops there. >> She was sitting down. You saw her sitting down and I just came in there just went straight. >> And we said, "Put your hands behind your back." And she didn't do it. and she started fighting the officers. So now, >> why would you come? >> At that moment, an officer approached the store manager to confirm what had happened behind the scenes. And his answer also explained why the mother outside had acted so uncooperative. >> Who's who's suspected of stealing? >> Oh, the the missing one then, right? >> No, the green shirt dress one who was >> the green dress one. The one that got uh taken out. >> Yeah. >> Um and then the one that's inside company. >> So mama's stealing too. >> Yes. >> She was the one. She was the the one doing the scanning. >> Oh, okay. >> And she was holding her phone up and was videoing recording and the off the female officer grabbed her hand. This guy here and this lady, I need your badge number and your name. >> 600. Very good. 600. >> Okay. I didn't read it out. >> Master. >> Okay. What was the bad number? >> 600. >> 600. Okay. this officer here >> and his female partner >> waiting for >> while my child was sitting or something to come >> he didn't female so she initiated everything with grabbing my child by the arm and twisting her arm around so who's not going to >> the mother had no idea her own actions had already been exposed she still tried to contact a lawyer while fabricating lies about what she had Take my baby to jail >> at the damn Walmart. >> Ma'am, >> I just told you I didn't have an ID. >> What's your first name? >> Lisha. I tried to give you all of this earlier. Can you spell it for me? Listen. >> Can you spell it for me? >> Misha. Cuz she was sitting there. We was coming out and the doctor bitching, man. He just ran into us instead of just saying, >> "Please talk to me or whatever." And then Misha was hold please. I'm not here on your time. Lady officer grabbed I'm conducting a theft investigation and you're the subject of it. >> If you don't ID, then you go to jail for obstruction. >> You don't have to go to jail for obstruction. I'm not. >> So, >> you are the subject of a theft investigation. >> So, I just gave you my name. Your last name? >> L E S. >> L A K E S H A. >> Yes. Do >> you want to talk to Stop talking to me?

She didn't ask me to put my hands behind my back or anything. You didn't tell me. You started PULLING ON ME. GET OUT MY FACE. I DON'T WANT TO TALK TO YOU NOR THAT WENT OUT THE DOOR. GET OUT MY FACE. PERIOD. POINT BLANK. Then the officers confirmed the mother's name and discovered she had a prior arrest warrant related to a previous theft. And that alone was enough for them to decide on taking action. >> All right. And you're under arrest for retail theft. Go ahead and put your hands. >> When I'm under arrest, >> I just said retail theft. >> When I'm under arrest for retail theft and the lady was standing right there. >> Wait, can you get us to my husband? on the right or the left. >> Okay, maybe you want to take two cuffs. >> We're going to put two cuffs on you. >> Please, that hurts. But can I please? >> Uh, let me go check on his progress here. >> Wait, wait. Can you turn it? It is. >> Wait, we have to have your hands like that. Hold on.

So, >> same cards you purchased it with. >> Both suspects were charged with pettit theft. And the younger was also charged with resisting arrest. Even when trying to protect loved ones, refusing to cooperate with law enforcement can escalate the situation and lead to more severe consequences. Staying compliant is the safest way to handle legal trouble. If we had a queen of lies before, then now it's time to meet the king of deception. >> Not getting on your subject from Michigan or Georgia. >> That's a lie. All right. For right now, you're under arrest for trafficking. >> What? because you had this bag that has stuff from Marshall. >> On June 29th, 2023, police received a report from a Marshall store about a shoplifting suspect fleeing the scene. Using the description, officers located the individual at the nearby Martyr train station. Here's what happened next. >> The way down over here, put your hands behind your back. What I do mean for what I do? Hey, just keep your hands together. I don't know exactly what. Okay. >> How you doing? >> How you doing, sir? >> So, we have a call.

On top of that, police had already found a wallet on him, but his new excuses only made him look even more suspicious. >> Here you go. But >> um >> you just picked this up. >> From where? >> In the parking lot. >> In the parking lot. >> Okay. I got none of this. I ain't stole nothing, sir.

All pointing to the fact that the man was a terrible liar. not doing our turn. I don't think you hear subject from Michigan or Georgia right there. [Music] Oh, they got him. 33 to other units on the Martyr platform. If you guys want to check the area for a um it looks like a white reusable um >> Walters >> bag that says either Walters or something along those lines in red writing with a car on it. >> White reusable. >> There is this right here. >> If you guys can check for that. It's got multiple hats in it that he snagged. >> Two turn. I got that bag. >> Clear. Thank you, ma'am. [Music] >> The man confidently assumed that leaving the bag in a corner and claiming he hadn't touched anything would cover up everything he had done. But the outcome didn't turn out the way he expected. >> I That didn't matter. >> Yeah, but you're on video holding that bag. That's why we're taking it back. >> I'm holding it, man. Yeah, they're on video doing that. And look look look this this ain't me ask video holding what? >> Ricky if that's your name. Okay, look Ricky, I'm telling you this is not a question. I'm telling you you're on video holding that bag wearing these clothes. So let's just cut the BS. Okay, cuz all you're doing and all I'm doing is wasting our breath at this point. Okay. >> All right. And I'm Look, we're here to treat you respected the same way. Okay, but we if we now hear me out. If we do BS all day, it's just going to take long. It be a longer process. And hopefully and but hopefully before we get to it, man. The whole look, we haven't hear me out. I don't want to get to the point where we got to throw together stuff, we're giving a false name, okay? We're being really nasty, okay? >> Would you agree? Okay. >> I'm not trying to come off a national. Okay? So, hear me out, man. >> That's all right. >> You sit down. It's fine, man. >> I haven't done nothing, sir. >> So, if we get straight to the point, it be a lot easier, man. >> Straight to the point, bro. >> Right. >> I I went and used the bathroom, sir. >> Okay. I use a man. >> We'll we'll see what we can do when we get around that point. But right now, what I'm telling you is today you are on video. Your face, your hat, your shirt, your your pants holding that bag right there that you're saying it's not yours. That BS. Okay. >> So, let's not let's not do that. Okay. Look, >> if you want to lie to me, I'd rather just not even say anything to me at all. Okay? I'm telling you the facts. Okay? >> This is what we have on video. >> Damn it. Sir, they ain't seen me next. >> That's a lie. All right. For right now, you're under arrest for shoplifting. >> What? because you had this bag that has stuff from Marshall. >> Look, just stop playing. >> The man realized he could no longer fool the police with his lies. Immediately, he adopted a new role to make things difficult for them, casting himself as a victim in need of sympathy. >> Go ahead and send him back, man. I got >> Hey, man. Hey, listen. You You'll take out the jail. Go ahead, man. Send >> you make me on myself, sir. >> If you got to do what you do, do what you do, man. Go ahead. Send it back. >> God damn. >> I'm sick, man. Ricky, go ahead. Sit in the back, man. >> Go ahead. Come on. >> Bro, bro, please give us >> Come on. Stand up for me and face the car crash. >> Boss, man, you just ran all or walked all you walked all the way from here up to Marsh or up to Marta. Come on. I had to come on. Okay, you can sit like that then I'll do it from the other side. >> Call him now, please. >> You need an ambulance? We'll call you an ambulance. That's fine. We'll have them come check you out. >> I'm on that folk. >> You're on fentanyl. Okay. >> On now. >> When time did you last use fentanyl? >> About two hours ago. >> Two hours ago. Okay. How old are you, boss? >> I'm 56. >> 56. >> In the end, Ricky was charged with shoplifting, failure to appear in court, disorderly conduct, and providing a false name, address, or date of birth to law enforcement. Lying and trying to hide evidence only made the consequences worse. Dishonesty damages credibility and ultimately leads to serious charges. Honesty is always the quickest way to avoid trouble. Next up, this shoplifter failed miserably in trying to plead for anything. >> Begging you. I don't have a drug addiction. I was door dashing and I was trying to be a good Samaritan. Please stop deal with me. Please God, I was doing so good. >> On April 2nd, 2024, police were dispatched to a target in response to a theft report involving a 35-year-old woman named Ashley, who had a long history of similar offenses across multiple counties. Upon arrival, officers spotted her attempting to wheel a shopping cart holding an entire electric scooter out of the store. Please explore. >> This was mine, though. This one's mine. >> Okay. All right. Well, let's walk in there. Get this figured out. Come here. >> So, I'm going to have you stand right against this wall right here. >> Please don't press. I'm begging you. I was doing it for my son. >> I swear to God, >> okay, >> I won't do it again. Okay. >> Yeah. It was for my son. >> What was >> for his birthday? >> Which which thing they were? >> That thing in the back. >> The scooter. >> I promise you I won't do it again. I promise. Please don't arrest me. >> I believe you. You're being cooperative. I appreciate that. I'm just trying to figure out what's going on. >> Yeah. I mean, I didn't put it in my car. I'm begging you. It was my son. >> I beg you. >> What's the What's the deal with this? But you tried to cut it. Is that when you went into the hardware side and then the alarm went off, right? Okay. All right. You got your ID in there? >> I do. >> Okay. >> I don't have no warrants. Okay. I'm begging you, sir. Don't press charges. I did it for myself. He'll go with you to the office with her. >> Okay. >> Okay. >> What I was gonna do is return this and then because this is mine. >> Excuse me. Sorry. >> This wasn't Ashley's first run-in with the law. So, she immediately admitted to the theft, offering a barely plausible excuse. In the loss prevention office, she went further, explaining the personal reasons behind her actions. >> But why steal though? >> I don't know. No. You got a job right now? >> I lost my job. I got a lost job. That's mine. I was gonna return it. >> Yeah. How long? >> You're on probation. Please don't arrest me. >> I'm begging you. Listen to me. I'm begging you. >> I'm begging you. I don't have a drug addiction. I was Door Dashing and I was trying to be a good Samaritan. I went to go I had an order pop up. Went to Jack in a Box to get the order for this lady. The Door Dasher came before me, picked her food up, never returned it, and I picked her food up, returned it to the lady. She even tipped me double, and then I guess she got the names fixed up, and I lost my job. I'm begging you. I'm begging you. I've been doing so good. >> Let me Let me see what I can do. >> Please. [Music] >> I swear all my life, you can even keep my comforter. I'm doing I'm sorry. I'm not trying to >> I don't understand. But listen to me. Please give me one second. >> Sure. >> I shouldn't have done that. >> Right. >> That was stupid. And I haven't stolen in a while. I'm on probation. Okay. I'm on probation for 5 years. If I've been in trouble, I go to prison for 10. And I have a baby. And I was just trying to do something for my son. >> Here's the problem, right? Like I said, I work for Target. Although this is on camera. >> I know. The woman repeatedly tried to elicit sympathy from the officers, but nothing went her way. In reality, her actions were methodical and professional as confirmed by the police. >> She uh attempted to cut off the spider tag on the scooter, got part of it cut, alarm went off, went into the hardware side to do it, took pliers from their thing. So then she walked up to an unknowing employee and she's like, "I don't know why the alarm's going off." So they took it off for her, but she they she had already tried and she admitted to that. Then she when I got her, she had already walked out without paying for the scooter. >> Please, please can't do anything about it. >> I'm about to pass out. >> I got you. You >> I'm about to pass out. No, I'm about to pass. I wish I was right now. >> You need EMS to come check you out? >> Oh god. No. I cannot believe this, y'all. I'm on Oh my god. I'm about to go to the pin for 10 years. Please. Please. I'm begging you. Look, I will do anything in the world to have you not do this to me. Please, I did it myself. I understand. But please, please, I understand your job for you. >> But you're not going to How you going to leave me? >> It's all on camera. >> Listen to me. I'm >> My baby. >> My baby. You're laughing though. >> She used every possible tactic to plead for leniency, even invoking her children's welfare. And at this point, she began altering certain details of her actions in her account. >> I haven't done it in SO LONG THAT I'M NOT even smart about it. >> Was actually What was this thing that was cut? Was it like a little circle thing out here that >> Yeah, I didn't even cut it. Some other guy, the the the the cash guy got the magnet cuz I started I cut one cord and the guy came around and took the thing. >> So, it was already cut all the way. >> No, no, no, no. It wasn't cut all the way and the employee undid it for me. So, you started to cut it. It didn't work. And you're like, "Hey, >> this boy came and did it for me." The whole thing. >> Okay. >> What did you use to cut it? >> Something in here. I don't even >> You went like through the gardening place. >> You can throw up. Take your time. >> Guys, I don't know what to do. >> Well, first I want you to see Patrick. >> How come he just won't let me go? >> Actually, he has to do a job. It's his policy. >> He's getting it back. >> I didn't even Guys, I I'm >> got a baby. No, >> your health is more important than >> My health can go to hell right now. >> No, it can't. Does your your daughter or your son, excuse me, still needs you? >> I'm not going to see my son for 10 years. >> All of her pleas for sympathy were likely just another tactic she had used to evade consequences in the past, as officers had already reviewed her prior offense history among themselves. >> Okay. >> So, you picked her up? >> Yeah, I picked her up when she selected the item. Um, >> is it more did you recognize her from prior or suspicious >> activity? I did recognize her. Her name is Ashley Schultz from from I mean she's been at other stores. >> She's about a thousand each in a little more over a thousand each incident. >> Oh my god. Oh my god. >> So she'll grab some pliers. >> That's when she starts trying to cut. >> Yeah. She'll try. So the alarm will go off after she cuts it. She goes onto the main aisle and she sees the team member. So she's like, "Hey, this is going off." It's a lot different than the last one I did here. I can tell you that. >> Everything we do is different. don't get a smooth signal. >> So, she'll grab it. So, he'll help her. She'll take it to the front. He turns off the alarm and then she goes back into the store and I guess she's still trying to pull it. So, then he hears it going off. So, he's like, "Hey, let me just take it off for you." She's like, "Okay." >> She go to the register at all for it. >> No. So, she cuts through. So, she goes through and go straight to She has her debit card in hand, but she never goes through the register. She just walks straight out. There she goes. And we were waiting. Is it you're walking behind her? >> Yeah. >> Who stopped? The police. >> Not letting her please go unanswered, the officers quickly took action, leaving the suspect desperate to do something to change the outcome, but powerless to do so. >> Where? >> To where? >> Going to. >> What is that? >> It's just like a little jail where you sit there for a couple hours and then we're going to We have to take you to town. It's just the >> This is yours. >> I don't want that from Target. I'm good. I don't even want to look at Target. >> It's your They can have it. That guy standing behind this nice lady. He can have it. >> He can sleep on it. >> You don't want this at all? >> I don't want it. If you want it, you can have it. I don't want nothing. It reminds me of Target. >> All right. So, we'll leave this here. >> Okay. We'll do that. You ought to feel ashamed of yourself. You care about care. >> You want to go to that bathroom back there? >> Why did I do this? That man is a piece of All right, we're going to have to get girl friendly. All right. Oh, Lord. I haven't gotten that friendly in a long time. Sorry, girl. The woman was charged with theft. Repeated criminal behavior carries consequences. Pleading for sympathy or changing one's story rarely alters the outcome and highlights the importance of accountability. Even worse, the next group of women acted as a team, lying and deceiving together. >> Over. >> No. Only thieves walk around with empty purses cuz they stuff stuff in it. Now, you know, that's easy deduction. On June 24th, 2023, officers were dispatched to Kohl's after receiving a report of an ongoing theft. Three women were seen trying to stash merchandise into a suitcase with one even dragging an entire rack of baby clothes. As soon as officers approached, the suspects immediately reacted in an unexpected way. >> OVER. [Music] HEY, [Applause] >> where's the other one? You got her. Where'd you go? >> Oh, there she is. to work. I call 911. I can't. Oh, okay. Okay. Thank you. >> I'm going to head back in the store, sir. They got her, >> bro. >> They got the other one that got back. >> Yeah, my body came and run away again. I'll whoop your ass. >> You understand me? Where did her Where did her bag go? >> I didn't want it to get lost. They put the other officer. I didn't want it to get lost, dude. I'm sorry. >> What? away. Grab your What the >> Get your ass over there before I yell at you. >> Right after the chase unfolded and before officers could say a word, one of the three suspects denied any wrongdoing. Even with the tense tone, the police couldn't immediately take action against them. >> They I don't feel like they can take us to well take me to jail cuz I just still >> Okay, >> I'll put it in the sharpening the shocking thing. I swear to God my kids. >> Okay, it's an awful time for you guys to do this. It's raining out here. We don't get wet. >> Oh. >> Oh my god. >> You want to stand up? Is that easier? >> Yeah. >> Is that easier? >> Yeah. >> I'm not going to lie. I do got a history, but I not like I don't have no uh like warrants or nothing. >> All right. Where you working at? >> Huh? >> You working somewhere right now? >> Yeah, I do have. >> Where you work at? >> I do hair. I don't work. >> Oh, you do hair? >> Yeah, >> man. That's God. Why you get here doing this though? Too young to be doing this stuff, man. 217 copy one. Is your license out of Florida or somewhere else? >> It's in Florida. >> It's in Florida. >> I cannot I can't go to jail, bro. >> Shortly after, the second suspect was questioned. Yet, they too denied any wrongdoing, even as police clearly spotted a vehicle waiting for them from a distance. How'd you get here? >> Down there. >> Where's your car? >> That's big. >> Where's the car? >> What kind of car is it? >> Oh, it's a black car. I don't know. >> It's a black car. >> Yeah, I just got >> SUV. You just got in it? >> Yeah, I just got in. I just got picked up. >> You don't know these guys? >> Yeah, I know them. My cousin. I just got >> Oh, they're they're cousins. So, you know what they drive? >> Is the car down? >> What car? It's 90 cars. Which one? >> You want me to show it to you? >> Just point it out. It's that black car right there. >> Which one? The one that in the handicap spot. >> Yeah. About a handicap spot. >> Huh? >> About a handicap. >> Is it a Kia? >> No, it's not. >> Or is it a SUV behind it? >> It's like I don't know. It's over there. >> I believe so. 214. You have yours. >> CI1. She's pointing out a black car by the handicap on the left by PetSmart. either the SUV or the Kia uh as their vehicle. Two rows to your right. Two rows to your right. >> Was it an SUV or a car? It's >> a car. >> Even when officers discovered multiple suspicious items in the woman's bag, clearly showing deliberate theft. Her stubbornness allowed her to continue denying any wrongdoing. >> You can watch the camera. I walked in there with that person. >> Well, you got nothing in it. No ID. >> Okay. I I walked in. >> Why did you bring a purse in there? >> That's my purse. >> Why did you bring a purse? It's emptying. >> It's nothing in that purse. >> I know. Why did you bring a purse? >> Cuz I could bring a purse. I >> Cuz you're stealing stuff with it. >> I ain't never put nothing in the purse. >> That's okay. You're all You're all together. >> You're all together. >> Okay. They ain't even get nothing. So what's the problem? >> Oh, really? >> No. >> Are you sure about that? >> Yeah. They I seen them when they walked out. They they ain't never got nothing. >> That's okay. Don't worry. I guess you don't know the law too much. Once you start hiding stuff throughout the store, it's called stealing. And it's all on camera, so it's gone. >> What? Hey, you didn't touch anything in the store? Nothing. >> Find that hard to believe. >> He ain't even touching me. The man he ran nothing to. >> Mhm. How do I know to stop you? >> Oh, cuz he said he said stop me, too. >> Who? >> The man. The man that when he was when I was walking out the door, he was right there. Nothing in it. It's empty. No ID. She's >> inside. Huh? >> It's all inside still. >> So that's what I'm trying to find out. They need to come out and talk to us. >> So I had I had a call and have him come out here. Hey, she just went on probation two days ago for grandp. Clearly, these women were not first-time offenders, so no amount of defiance could sway the officer's judgment. >> No, nobody does. >> No, only thieves walk around with empty purses >> cuz they stuff stuff in it. You know, that's easy deduction. 100 women, 100 things in a purse. You nothing except paper. You don't even have ID, sir. [Music] >> Got anything on you? Knives, drugs, guns, anything. She has to get like that. >> So, we haven't found the car yet? >> No. >> Cuz the girl that she pointed out was the black car, but you said it was a >> It was an older white female that came I watched her get out and go into >> Yeah. >> And then that's smart. She came back out and got in there. So, the girl that I took, she's saying that they came here in a lift. >> And I'm like, whose phone is Jordan lift on? Well, mine. I'm like, "Okay, well, maybe you want to pull them away." We're taking all our phones out. >> Yeah. So, I have her phone here. >> I took her phone cuz she was starting to text this kid. >> KD, does she have pain? >> I don't know. >> That's all right. >> That's her phone. >> All right. Saw you. Um, he giving you a total. >> Yeah, I told him that we need to get um pictures and stuff before I start toing so >> All three women were charged with felony grand theft with one also violating probation. just 2 days after receiving it. These suspects show that no amount of denial or defiance can hide repeated criminal behavior. It's a stark reminder that deliberate theft always carries consequences.

Before we meet the next thief, take a look at this delusional woman and her false sense of power. >> Well, no, no. I'm about to call my Facebook because see, I'm not sure two people came. You can do whatever you like on that. >> These are not real police. No, you're not. I bought my own stuff. >> On January 26th, 2025, police received a call from Walmart reporting a woman suspected of being trespassed. Upon arrival, the woman immediately demanded to call 911, even with officers right in front of her. Keep watching to find out why. >> Oh, hold on one second. I'm good. And you going to call 911? >> I'm I'm right here. >> No, I'm calling 911 >> for what? >> Because how you doing, honey? >> How are you? >> I'm good. And you? Happy Sunday. >> I'm just trying to figure out what's going on. >> I know. I'm calling 911 cuz too because I don't want somebody might hurt me because I'm here shopping and I can buy all my stuff in cash, but I'm calling. I'm going to call cuz I don't want I want to make sure I'm safe cuz I don't know who you are. [Music] I don't know. I'm shopping. >> Good morning. Hi. I'm at Walmart and um there's a a guy that's here that's supposedly >> the the um so I don't know. He's saying he's a a Neapville police officer, but I'm not sure. And I'm worried because I'm just a woman and I bought my groceries in >> Okay. Is this Yolanda? This is her. But >> does the officer have a uniform on and a vest that says police on it? >> Um, yeah, it does. But the thing is is he I'm not sure if he's an American citizen, though. >> Yeah. I'm standing in front of her. You could tell her by name so that she could hang up. >> That's officially going to disconnect. >> Okay. I was, you know, let me call my Hold on. Let me call my We're not. >> The dispatcher even knew her name, suggesting this wasn't her first time, clearly showing the woman's abuse of power. And it didn't stop there as she continued to play the victim in a different way. >> I'm about to call my Facebook because, see, I'm not sure. Two people came. >> You can do whatever you like on that. >> Okay? Cuz I'm like two two people two people came up to me before. And um the thing is is hold on. Let me let me let me do my Facebook thing and I'm just going to >> You can do whatever you like. Listen, you were a trespasser from here. >> No, I'm not a trespasser. Hold on. Hold up. Before >> Before you Before you say that, because that's not true. >> Well, it is true. We have confirmed that you have been trespassed from here, whether you remember or not. So, there's going to be two ways that this goes down. >> Walmart management trespassed you. Okay. >> It is confirmed in our system and through their system that you've been trespassed. systems are down. That's okay. >> Morning everybody. Good morning. I want y'all to be on Facebook with us. This is M. >> Yeah, this isn't going to go the easy way. Franken, she's not cooperating. You might as well come. >> I want to make sure y'all get on here and see the I came up here to go shopping. I got all my groceries. I bought it for You're going to have to come in here. >> I bought all my Listen, I bought all my stuff. >> Did you refuse last time was issued a ticket and then >> No, no.

This is uh he says his name is Officer Buckley, but I'm just making sure that we get on here. I'm tired. It's Sunday. I want to go home. I don't want to mess and bother with y'all, but I just wanted to make sure that I logged in and told y'all that. >> If she could confidently deny the allegations, she shouldn't have acted so fearfully, especially while the officers were patiently handling the situation. Yet clearly this drawn out drama also became a major issue for the police. >> I'm tired. Okay. Well, listen. I I'm not a trespasser, though. >> Okay. Well, you've been issued a citation before. >> You're going to be issued another citation. And if you do not leave, you will be placed under arrest and you will go to DuPage County Jail. >> Oh, but you I don't see that's what I'm trying to tell you. >> After you get two citations, then then you go to DuPage County Jail. Okay. >> You go to Dupage. >> So, is that what we're going to Which way do you want to go? Would you like another citation? >> No. No. This is what I'm saying. to leave peacefully or would you like to get a citation not leave and then go to Dupage County? >> Citation 400. >> The citation for is for trespassing to Walmart which you've already been issued one prior. >> Call the Neapville Police Department. No, they're defunded. There's no money going there. >> That's fine. It's still my job and I need to take care of that. Okay. >> The thing is is if y'all not being paid to do the job, then you're not >> I am being paid to do the job and that's what I'm here for. And right now I'm helping and serving Walmart. adult.

You have to have um >> Where are we going about this? This is nothing to do with the situation that we're dealing with right now. >> Yes, it is.

We don't our >> No, you were told to get out of here several times prior. This department's got >> this isn't how it's >> she acted this way because she believed her US citizenship gave her the right to do so and dismissed the police questioning his own citizenship. Now notice how her attitude shifts once backup officers arrive. >> Would you like this to go with a citation Mr. Franken? I like your eyes. You're a nice looking guy. >> This is the thing. No, no, no. This is this is my thing. I'm just letting my face letting everybody know. >> All right. Wait. This is You're going to stop or you will be arrested. >> No, no, no.

You are resisting. Stop police. >> You are resisting. >> These are not real police. >> This wasn't about real authority. This was her deceiving herself as the outcome didn't go the way she expected. She continued making herself the center of attention in the store, still playing the victim. >> And whoever's at the Natureville Police Department, it doesn't matter. This is my stuff. >> I'll find this. >> We We will We will discuss that when we get to the jail and I will speak with Walmart. This is my stuff. I do not engage out of Walmart. >> No, I >> What are you doing? You guys are Y'all not authorized to do it and you're not going to get away with it. You're under arrest. No, I'm not. No, I'm not.

I'm actually one of the people who's here to help everybody from their countries. I know that people in their countries are not getting food, but they need to tell Putin that he needs to stop places and then people from other countries will get their food. The woman was charged with criminal trespassing and resisting arrest. Believing that citizenship grants the right to break the law only leads to legal consequences. Cooperating with the police from the start would have prevented bigger trouble. Next, what happens when the family duo goes shoplifting together? >> Just like that. Let go. Stay right there. Stay right there. Don't turn around. I done. >> Take off your phone. >> Mom, both of us is going to jail right now. You got to get us out. Okay. >> On October 16th, 2024, officers were working undercover at a busy mall to investigate rising retail theft. By sheer coincidence, a theft unfolded inside a Nike store. The suspect slipped a pair of shoes into her bag and tried to walk out. Officers immediately gave chase. Here's what happened next. All right. Do me a favor. Stay right there. Put your hands down. Just like that. Let go your phone. Stay right there. Stay right there. Don't turn around. >> Damn. I done. >> Let go of your phone. >> Y'all got me all my stuff in.

He's with you. >> That's supposed to be my mom, but he's actually >> Can you stay out here with me? The evidence was enough. She couldn't hide the truth behind her feigned calm. But the suspect didn't stop there. Officers quickly intercepted the other man as he tried to play innocent, walking past them. >> Yeah, I saw her stuff the dunks and then >> Hey my guys, stay right there. Stay right there. Hand behind your back here. Walk toward the wall. Walk toward the wall. Keep walking. Keep walking. What's going on? You're right now for criminal investigation. All right. Stay water.

All right. >> So, somebody ended up stealing some merchandise walking out due to the fact that both of you guys are together. They're trying to determine if it's one of you guys, if it's both of you guys, while both of you guys are detained. All right. >> No, it ain't me. >> All right. >> Back to the woman. Even with the evidence in hand, officers decided to see if she would be honest about what happened. It quickly became clear they shouldn't have expected it. >> So, how did you obtain the item? >> Yeah. Um, I went in the store. >> You what? >> I went in the store and paid the items. That's how I >> So, you took the items? >> Yeah. And what is that used for? >> That's just >> the pliers. What are they? That's just a normal car. That's not used for anything. I don't need it for anything to be used for anything. >> How many uh pairs did you take overall? >> That was just the two. Like I don't Yeah, I don't steal. Like I don't steal this morning >> this morning. No, this morning that was that was somebody else with me. My son was me, but somebody else was me. I didn't take those.

But I promise you I don't have that merchandise. >> Like I said, they got you to somebody else. >> Yeah. I don't I don't have it. I'm sorry. I don't have the merchandise. I don't have it. It was somebody else that was here with me. I don't know if they saw that person as well, but it was somebody else that was with me as well here. >> But you knew they took it at the time? I'm not I wasn't in the store with them at that time. So, I'm not sure if they took it with them or not, but I was in the store with them at that time to know, okay, y'all going to go ahead and take this. I'm going to go ahead and take some like this. It wasn't that type of party like no. >> But but you were there at in the in the Yeah, I was. She wanted to come to the mall. So, I said, "Okay, let's go to the mall." >> But under me under depression, I don't feel you look at my record, my record is clean. like I had one thing that happened to me one a long time ago that my record is clean. I have nothing on my record today. >> Her statements were a mess, as if she was under some influence. Even when she admitted to it, she brushed it off, claiming she was just copying a friend who had gotten away with it earlier. >> Were you referring to the friend from earlier? >> Yeah. So, to be honest, saying I don't even know why the I did that to begin with. Is it something that Cuz you mentioned earlier that you didn't know that she was stealing here or she was stealing at the time. It was Yeah, we came here cuz she said she want to go to the mall. >> Okay. >> That's why we came here because she said she wanted to go to the mall. I'm not I'm not going to say I'm just dumb, but I'm naive to certain things until it comes to my face. >> But when she was here, okay, >> so yeah, that's it's influence really, ma'am. is nothing. This is not something that I do. Like I said, my record, the only thing you'll find find on my record is driving is a fail to appear type thing. >> Yeah. It's not even a fail to appear. That happened one time and I turn myself in. Other than that, it's driving. Other than that, I don't go to court. I don't have to go to court days. I don't have to get lawyers. I don't have to do none of that. Like, because I work, I do what I'm supposed to do and I go home. >> So, you saw that your friend got away with it earlier today. So, that kind of influenced you. So the two pairs that you took, was it like more for personal use to sell it forward? For what? >> No, to be honest, it was just her. It was just influence and that was it was for her, honestly. >> It was for her. >> Yeah, honestly. It was just influence and it was just for her to honestly. To be honest, >> so you stole for your friends. >> Being stupid. Being stupid. >> To be certain, the man was confirmed uninvolved in the theft. So officers made separate decisions regarding him. >> Do you knew of what she was doing? Okay. So, were did you partake in in any of this thing? Okay. Did you know if she was here? >> No. >> Uh at the mall prior to you bringing her here? >> No. >> No. Okay. Does aside from you, does she did she have a vehicle to come to uh to the mall herself? Like, why does she need you to drive her? >> Well, she came to the house and got my lady car. >> Okay. >> But whenever she did it, my lady had me to drive with her. She go, you know, ride with her. >> Okay. So, you know, she'll bring the car right back. >> Oh, cuz then she'll go elsewhere and not Okay. So, the whole purpose was to make sure that the car would come back home. >> Okay. So, it's nothing like I don't know like her license suspended or anything like that? >> I don't know. I don't know. >> Okay. But were you driving the vehicle? >> No. >> She was driving? Yes. >> Okay. So, you were more for the vehicle for her to come back? >> Okay. But do you understand why we >> This is an ongoing and to my understanding, not that he had anything on him, right? merchandise or anything like that. But again, we're getting with them uh the employees and also with her. So, spoke with her already. I spoke with you guys with you and also um do my investigation. >> Let's confirm. He has nothing to do with this. >> The only downside, man, as you know, >> you got civil right. All right. But more than likely, you will be going. Just confirming it now. If it's nothing, we'll get you out those cuffs as I said to you earlier. But if they want to see you, you'll be going for it. All right. And then they said it was 2500 bond amount during first appearance. They can decide if they're going to lower that or they lower nothing. And they ain't going to never get it. [ __ ] down. Okay. >> Civil procedures still required him to be held while the investigation wrapped up. At that moment, he got to see his daughter. Now, pay attention to the conversation with the family's mother. What do you make of both their attitudes? Drop your thoughts in the comments below. Just going to play around here or no >> going to jail, man. Where where you at? >> Um >> I hit by >> the outlets. The premium >> outlets bridge. Yeah. >> I What? >> I bridge you have to go get both of us. >> What the hell is going on? >> Mom, both of us is going to jail right now. You got to get us out. Okay. Both of us are on our way to jail right now. Most of us will have a bond right now. So, either you could go up to the jail right now or either you could I don't know. You could wait till we get there to go up there, but I rather you go up to the jail right now so you can go ahead and have the bond ready. >> In the end, the woman was charged with theft. No matter the excuse or peer influence, trying to cover up theft only makes the consequences worse. Integrity matters. Actions have consequences, and lies never pay off. More dramatic, these professional thieves actually believed they could escape the police. >> Stop right there. Stop right there. Hey, >> stop right there. [Music] On February 4th, 2023, police were dispatched to a shopping mall after receiving reports of an ongoing theft. The moment he saw the officers approaching the scene, he made an instant shocking move. >> What are you trying to do? >> Nothing. I don't have anything. >> All right, keep your hands where I can see them. Stop right there. HEY, >> stop right there. I'M GOING TAS YOU. STOP RIGHT THERE. [Applause] OKAY. OKAY. >> OKAY. >> Do not move. >> I know exactly where >> I didn't take anything. You >> got him. >> I didn't take anything was just an excuse as his clothing and fleeing behavior were enough to raise suspicion of wrongdoing. Meanwhile, another suspect was still lurking around, quickly evading the police's approach. >> Hey, man. Stop. Brother, let me see your hand. Let me see your hands. Let me see your hands. Stop right there. Stop right there. Hey, >> stop right there. Turn around. >> Turn around. >> Get on your stomach. >> Get on your stomach. >> Are you kidding me? >> Get on your stomach. >> Tell me. >> Get on your stomach. >> Stop resisting. I'm hurting. >> Get your >> Please, man. >> Stay right there. >> Hey, man. >> Stay right there. >> Please. Put your hand. >> What's going on? >> Put your hand on your back. >> Don't [ __ ] do that. >> Well, get your hand. >> Put your hands on your back. >> Their resistance, even when hit with a taser, demonstrated the sheer professionalism of these thieves. And while the police were apprehending the second suspect, the first one managed to escape. >> I saw someone running. Hips on. >> Yeah. Well, there's two in the stories fighting with. >> Oh, they had one. >> All right. >> I ain't had nothing, brother. >> When I tell you to stop, stop. >> Yeah. I jump forward at me. I was going to be wearing a blue jacket, possibly blue jeans. >> Do you know which way he is? >> He went that way in front of my front door. That's all. >> Oh, okay. So security had the other guy. I don't know if he fell off, let go, but we had him in handcuffs. >> I think one of them may have been on that bike. >> Let's go. >> Some guys walking said one of them ditched a bike and >> so one we caught him cuz he ran. Then they pointed out this one cuz he started coming to the back. Whatever. >> But no one got away with your handcuffs, huh? >> One did. Yeah. Oh, he's still cuffed. >> Yeah. >> On the back. >> Where's the other one at? Way down the other one. >> All right. Let the other unit know me. Still in handcuffs played. Sephorano torch rafina. Here's the bag that was his. I don't know if you don't get a scent. >> But your customer said that he went down. >> Okay. >> And he's cuffed, dude. >> Okay. We'll get it. We'll get it. Let's go. Stop resisting. Come on, dude. Relax. So, have a seat. Stop resisting. Simple as that. You just keep fighting. >> Immediately after detaining the suspect, the police began tracking the fleeing individual using professional tactics, even monitoring every possible sign in the surrounding area to locate him. 304277. Just double checking any bike involved that we know of or negative. So, sounds like Yeah, sounds like he went this way, huh? Seems like he's tracking fairly well. >> Excuse me. I see a guy running a handcuff over here. >> We've been looking. We haven't seen one at all. >> Okay. I appreciate it. >> Yeah, I'm sure he's he's gone by now. >> Yeah, dude. I mean, I think we locked it down. Okay. But it sounds like this all unfolded pretty fast. >> Did he leave stuff behind? >> No, he said that he uh he had bolt cutters in his hand or like wire cutters and he's trying to cut them off. >> Oh, okay. >> But he said he just left. He's got to be right here somewhere. >> Okay. Homeowner saying he within seconds from us arriving that he left. What was he wearing? He just had a jacket and and he's handcuffed, but he had like cutters. >> The handcuffs are still in his back. What the >> Okay. >> He can't cut him. >> No, no, no, no. He's saying the handcuffs were still to the rear. >> Please can there make stuff you get bit. Please can. >> After hours of searching, the suspect still couldn't be found. However, just 6 months later, the police received a report of his reappearance in the area, this time armed. Given the lessons from the previous encounter in the heightened danger, the officers deployed a SWAT team to apprehend him. >> Oh, he's running. >> Where is he? >> He's right there. >> Go get him, sir. Go get him. Shoot. Shoot. Shoot. >> Watch his hands. Let me see your hands. Give us your hand. Good job, bro. Get his leg. GET HIS LEG. I'M GETTING CUFFS. I'm going to get cuffs. >> I got this. I got this. >> I got cuffs. Move, move, move, move, move. >> Move, move, move. >> We got his ass. Pat him. Pat him right away. Pat him right away. >> Pull on your back. >> At this point, the second suspect was facing four active warrants for possession of a controlled substance. Resisting this elite, the unlawful taking of a vehicle and aggravated assault on a peace officer. The first suspect had two outstanding warrants for failing to appear in court related to prior controlled substance charges, and both were charged with shoplifting and resisting. Even petty thefts can escalate into serious crimes when suspects resist or evade police. Cooperating early with law enforcement prevents greater danger and consequences for everyone involved. Next, the couple familiar with the officers from church would soon meet them behind bars. >> Hey, how am I on? >> I'm trying to get it off. >> Oh, >> okay. >> I paid for everything I have. I got money. See, don't have to steal. >> Thanks. >> On August 17th, 2023, police were dispatched to Burlington Coat Factory after receiving a report of a shoplifting incident. The two suspects included one man and one woman. When officers arrived at the scene, the man immediately ran upon seeing them, which led police to secure the entire area. >> Get on. Go around. >> Lay down, >> man. I'm Lay down. >> I'm laying down. >> I'm laying down. >> Lay on your face. I got contact at top of the park now. Lay down. >> I ain't doing a >> Lay down on your face. >> I'm not running, bro.

Yeah. >> Okay. >> Get a pair of shoes right there. >> Okay. You know what I mean? >> Okay. >> I'm sorry for >> I bet you got to take You going to have to take that. >> Yeah. In fact, the man was quite familiar to the officers because they went to the same church. From the condition of the backpack he was carrying, the police also discovered something that exposed his lie. >> Bro, what? Come on. You got the You got the tag on. >> I'm saying I been I got the bag. >> Come on, man. >> I been got the bag. >> They take it off at the register, >> bro. I been got the bag.

I got to go back there and find out. I got to go back there and see what they said you took cuz it should be on video. >> They ain't see me take nothing. >> Okay. I haven't talked to him. You took off. >> At this point, another officer arrived at the store to make contact with the remaining suspect. Based on the statements the police gathered, including the suspect's denial, it seemed that this was a planned theft. Okay. Were they definitely together or >> she saw them last time? >> Okay. Has she been stealing today? Do you know the female? >> Hello. >> We've got a friend of yours in custody around the corner. Um, do you have your license with you or an ID? >> Yeah. Why? >> Um, well, the store is saying that he was shoplifting. I'm saying why you got to have my ID. >> Yeah. So, they're saying that uh you've been with them when he done it before. >> I have not been with him. Like, >> I need your ID. >> Okay. Got like >> I paid for everything I have. I got money. See, mine's still >> Thanks. So, obviously they have pretty good cameras. I haven't asked them about it yet, but do do you have anything that you're not supposed to have that we need to get back to them? No, >> sir. I bought this stuff from Five right here. >> Okay. >> And I was going to go up there and buy my stuff from here. I haven't read it wrong. This that came from Five Below. >> Okay. >> All this came from Five Below. Oh, you can check my purse. >> Okay. You said I'm I can check it. >> I mean I mean it's my right. Right. But yeah, I mean I obviously haven't done anything wrong. >> This did you buy those from? >> But they came from Five Below. >> Okay. >> You can't go ask them to wash the camera. I have done nothing wrong. >> All right. >> Even when she admitted her actions, her attitude was notable. She showed no sign of embarrassment and she even made statements accusing the police. >> Nothing because of somebody else. >> I'm just telling you what we have is that he was shoplifting. >> Okay. But yeah, I have I'm going to get my purse back cuz y'all being y'all being harassing for no reason. >> All right. >> Like I haven't done that. >> You forgot what was in this. Didn't you forget what was in this? Is that what it was? >> No, I didn't forget what was in it. >> Okay. >> I knew what was in it, but y'all harassing me for no reason. >> Okay. >> It ain't nothing but a bowl. Got no drugs in there. So, I mean, we wouldn't be out with you for no reason. So, there's a reason. So, it's not harassing you for no reason. We get out with you for a specific reason. Well, we have to figure that out. >> Um, so you're not under arrest right now, but you're just going to be detained. Okay? So, just put your hand behind your back. >> Why? For what? Y'all look, don't do that. I'm threatening, so be easy. >> Okay. We'll be easy with you. >> I'm not going to lie to y'all. >> Okay. I appreciate that. >> Well, I'm being detained, though. >> Um, so we can search your purse the rest of the way and um ask them about the rest of the stuff. That stuff came from Five and Below as well. You can do that. >> And you were going to buy this stuff you said? >> Yes, sir. I was. >> Okay. Did he take any tags off stuff? >> No, I did not. >> No. Did he take tags off anything? >> I don't know. We didn't even come in the store. Honestly, I didn't know he was in here. >> Right after the woman was taken away, the employee also revealed additional details and evidence showing that this was not the first time these individuals had done this. >> Yeah, August 4th. I took a picture of him in my phone. He did it on August 4th, too. Filled that red book bag up. >> Okay. Well, let's go ahead and get the details of all this. Is that wallet belonging to you guys? >> No, >> it's not. >> But the bag, the shoes, everything. >> Yeah. Everything else. Yeah. Still got the tag. >> Okay.

Just finished going through her purse to make sure, but like you said, I'm sure if she did have something, she would have just put it back. >> The woman was given another chance by the police to be honest about what had happened, but the outcome was still not as expected. >> Burlington Coke back here with you and Jason. I I swear to God I didn't y'all see the camera. I didn't even know he was in there to be honest. I swear on my keys. We was not together today. >> Okay. So, if I go and review the cameras, is it going to show God? >> I got you. If I go and review the cameras, is it going to show you putting anything in your bags and taking them out? >> No, sir.

I was going to buy that outfit. >> So, you and Jason weren't together. You don't know anything about it. Is that what you're saying? Oh my. I mean, we'll we'll go back and review the camera footage and see. >> Secondly, um you didn't take anything? >> No, sir. I did not get anything. >> Okay. So, you didn't take anything and put it back? >> No, sir. >> Okay. The stuff that from Five and Below, did you buy that? >> Yes, I did. I had my receipt in my pocket. >> What is this? >> That's supposed to be a Xanax. Somebody had gave it to me and I I wasn't trusting so I didn't never take it. And then I forgot this in my >> What's the other stuff? The multiolor stuff. >> Supposed to be a deal. I don't know. Is that yours? I never did take it. Somebody gave it to me and I I'm pregnant so I didn't take it. >> How many months pregnant are you? >> A little over nine weeks. So maybe almost two two months too much and change. >> You and Jason still together? >> No. >> Okay. >> Don't try. I just thought I was pregnant. >> By him or somebody else? Okay. >> This is my fifth child. >> I got you. I could charge you with both of those things, but since you're pregnant and you're cooperating, I'd like to work something out. Is there some a way you think you are you on paper? >> No, sir. >> You think you could help me out with a little bit of information? Maybe >> I have one. >> I might have a couple questions. >> Okay. You got a phone number? >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. So, if I let you go, can you call me tomorrow and we can talk more? >> Yes, sir. >> Cuz I mean, if if we talk about you don't want to cooperate, which is your right, you don't have to. >> The man was charged with shoplifting, resisting a merchant or loss prevention officer, and fleeing and eluding law enforcement. This woman showed no shame for her actions and even tried to blame the police. Despite being given multiple chances to be honest, she continued to lie, proving that her behavior was deliberate and unrepentant. >> It's his jacket. >> Okay, I don't care. I'm asking him. >> Okay, that's his jacket. I didn't know he put him in there. He took He took the bike. I have nothing. >> Okay, where's >> I see my pockets. >> On November 4th, 2023, police received a report from Walmart about an ongoing theft. The suspect, 27-year-old Adriana, had allegedly placed merchandise into her purse and jacket. At that moment, officers approached her without her noticing. >> Ma'am, can we talk to you for a second? >> Yeah, absolutely. >> Okay. You want to grab your purse? >> I mean, I'm buying all this. >> Okay, we're not. You're not purchasing it. We're going to step outside. >> Okay. >> I can't purchase nephew. >> 464 on 1012. I drink out of the streets that >> uh do you have anything else in the purse? Because they've all >> Do you have any items in your purse? >> No, sir. I do not. >> Okay. Do you need me to purchase this? >> Yeah. You're going to purchase that in a minute. We're going to go outside and talk. Okay. >> Okay. >> If you leave and there's anything in your purse, you're going to get charged with retail theft. So, >> I'm going to ask you this now. Here's where it doesn't become a crime. You can put it in the basket. Okay. >> Okay. >> Wait, I have my purse. >> Um, there is >> her very first words to the officers seemed to reveal her startled nature even before any accusations were made. Remarkably, at this point, she admitted to having items in her purse, but in a surprisingly deceptive way. >> My boyfriend did here. >> I'm sorry. My boyfriend did put these in here. >> Mhm. >> And I'll be honest with you. >> Okay. >> So that >> Where's your boyfriend at? >> He already walked out of the store. He had black hair, black shirt on, and his skinny jeans. >> Mhm. >> And he went out to the car. >> Okay. >> And that is that is it from here. >> What about the tostads? >> That is from when Dixie. >> What else did you guys see? >> Where's the bike accessory you took? in your pocket on your person. >> No, I have no bike yesterday. >> Pockets. >> He took the >> He took He took the bike. I have nothing. >> Okay. Where is >> I didn't see my pockets. Okay. >> The woman tried to blame her boyfriend, but everything only highlighted the poor quality of her lies as officers gradually discovered more items hidden in her jacket. Could it be a coincidence? Take your hands out of your pockets. Let's see. We're going to do this. What is this? Are you concealing anything? >> That this is his jacket. >> Okay. I don't care. I'm asking you. >> Okay. That's his jacket. I didn't know he put him in there. >> There's no mail. >> Yeah, there was. >> Stop fighting me. >> Please get off me.
