If you have any prior refusals to submit the test, >> as soon as somebody pulls me over and expects that I have a DUI, you're supposed to on site give me a breathalyzer. Nobody gave me no breathalyzer on the on the scene. They literally pulled me out of my car out of my arms, put me on the ground, and um yeah, put me in the backseat of the car and other than that, nothing else was done. So if you feel like I had needed a breathalyzer, they should have been on the team. It's not that I refused one. I was never given the chance to have one. >> Refused. >> So I never refused one. I never g I never had the chance to have one. >> Okay, let's just put that on. >> Refusing testing can be used. Is that something you do? >> I never do you understand that I never refused it.

So, my breath could be down if I was drinking alcohol. You know, you should do it right there on the scene. >> I feel like y'all are not being very um professional about things right now. >> Like that. So, >> so the the the the officer that pulled me over should have gave me a breathalyzer right there. If he wanted to pull me over for a DUI, he should have gave me a breathalyzer right there, which he did not. So, we're not going to do all that. We ain't going to do that. >> The woman was charged with DUI with a passenger under 18, resisting without violence, without bodily harm.

[crying] She can't really get up [screaming] on her own uh much like she can and her [crying] house was kind of flatted out last night. She let me know that she couldn't get up, give him a bath or anything. So, >> so far the officer had found only irresponsible behavior regarding the child's care. The officer was concerned about whether the child was living in safe conditions and also wanted to look inside the home. down on the street, middle of the intersection kind of she said on he was on Cooper down at the end of the street. Does he have like a little tight mic kind of >> um he does like >> cuz that's that's where he was in down at the end of the street. >> Yeah, I have no idea honestly because yeah that the mud room door uh is uh [crying] is locked twice. IT'S [screaming] A LOCK ON the handle as well. And then uh same with this door, but uh I leave this one unlocked because it has like a uh well not I like I unlocked it when I was coming to you guys, but uh it was uh it has like a child lock handle on it. So >> Okay. Because he was found out at the end of the street and he ran back came and got in that front that front area >> that little stoop >> and this front door was open >> or this side door was [music] open. How old is he? Uh, he'll be four. Okay. >> If you just want to hang tight for a sec, I'll be right back with you. Okay. >> Talk down if you want. >> I'm going to get on the phone with ECFs. >> Yeah, cuz I mean there's a horrible >> there's a really bad odor going on the house, too. Third diaper covered in paint. Dad didn't know he was out. >> Thank you for dad said he's been up for an hour. and neglect. >> You said you said he's your guys only child. You just have a couple other pets inside. You said >> help me. >> Any idea how long he was out of the house? >> Um the first officer on scene knocking on the door for a while. Couldn't get anyone to answer. >> I I assumed he only answered this time because I got pretty loud. >> Yeah, like I said, I was [music] in his room. I didn't hear anything. Like I didn't even hear any doors open. That's what confuses me the most. >> So, but we you have no idea how long little guy was actually outside. Correct. >> Yeah. Like he was like I mean sometimes when he gets like really quiet then that's when I'm Yeah. That's when I'm like all right. >> Yeah. Usually he just runs around from from the kitchen to his room to living room whatever. You said your wife's inside, man. >> You good if I go chat chat with her real quick? Just make sure she's okay. >> Can you just tell me how to get there if you want? You want to hang out here? >> Like I said, he's made a little bit of a mess. So, she's right in here. >> Okay. >> Hey, babe. All right, we're good. We can go back. >> After seeing the house and the living conditions, it raised serious red flags. The officer contacted child protective services and the situation was far worse than it seemed. >> So, what's h what's happening now with given the nature of the call and everything? >> I'm sure you're kind of aware what's happening. Um, we have a policy to go by. We had to contact DCFS regarding the matter. Okay. >> Um I'll be I'll be completely blunt with you, man. I'm not saying this to be insulting. That inside of the house is unsuitable for a child. >> Okay. >> Um with that being said, we're not how it's going to roll right now. We're going to hang out here. We don't want to cause any more stress or anything to the child or anything like that. >> Mhm. >> On a technical level speaking, the child is in our protective custody currently. We're not going to remove you guys from each other. We're just going to hang out here together. Okay. Does that >> make sense? need to explain that further for you. >> Are you taking him [snorts] >> on paper? Right now, the child is in our protective custody. Um, physically, I'm not removing him from you right now. We're going to hang out here until we hear back from DCFS and they're going to come out and meet. Okay, that's how this is going to go. Um, again, everything I'm doing is in the best welfare of the child. Everything that I've seen in the home. Again, I'm not saying any of this to be insulting or derogatory towards you. >> It's not right for the child to be living in. He seems wellfed and I told everyone that he seems wellfed. >> Outside of that though, he is >> he's filthy. >> Um that diaper has been on him I would assume for several days by the looks of it. >> Um he's he's got a matt matted hair. I mean I get if you come home tired, man, it is but >> at the same time kid needs to be cleaned up before bed or something. >> Yeah, of course. >> Um >> I mean like I said like when >> and we have no idea how long the kid was outside. >> He could have been outside for hours. Correct. I mean, >> and I know you said you didn't hear him knocking. You said my my suspicion was that uh you were probably asleep and didn't realize the kid got out. And the only reason we got to help is cuz I I pretty much threw your door open and yelled pretty uh distinctively trying to get your attention. Okay, >> hang tight with Officer Carr here for a second. We got to make a phone call. Okay. >> On board with that? >> Y. >> We got electricity. I turned the faucet on. It's got water. Um the house is absolutely disgusting. Um, there's not 13 cats in there. What appears to be there's a molded child chair. Little soft sit on chairs with literally moving away. The floor is I mean body. >> How's it going gentlemen? >> Hey Paul, how are you? >> My camera's on. >> How's it going? >> Going all right. >> I'm Paul with the city of Beacon. Um, I'm with the police department. I'm the code enforcement guy. I have a body camera on. I have to let you know that they're a little concerned about the conditions of the house inside. >> Yeah. Yeah. I [crying] I been in the process of uh cleaning as well. So, >> okay. So, do you mind if we take a look and see what's going on? >> Uh, sure. >> Now, your owner is from in Israel, right? But you have a local person in Pory that is you pay rent and manage. >> Mhm. Yeah. >> Okay. >> With CPS present, the officer conducted a thorough inspection of the house. And the more they looked, the more problems came to light. It was hard to believe how dirty and unhygienic the home was. >> Notice all the flies. >> What's all over the floor right here? >> Powder. He got into our bathroom last night. [crying] >> We have this handle. I didn't put it back on the door, but we have this like handle thing like the Okay. >> No, not that one. >> How old is that baby powder? >> Um, >> is it Johnson Johnson baby powder? >> Um, I do not know what the >> Do you know where the thing is for it? >> Uh, no. It's probably stuffed in the garbage. I haven't been able to take this out. The garbage can was already full. We had one of these. >> That's like >> like that's been Oh, like how how long how long has it been there? It's been there since like >> last night. >> Yeah, but baby powder is is air toxic. Okay. >> I mean, that that can make you and your wife extremely sick and and almost like >> in some cases it can cause some really bad damage to your lungs. >> Okay. So, that's there might be a situation where you guys are going to have to leave the house. >> Yeah. >> All right. Is there some place that your wife could you and your wife could go? >> Um I don't know honestly. Like I mean >> you know anywhere that >> I mean I just haven't gotten to this part like it's been there since uh late last night. >> Can you guys So you got animals too? How many cats do you have? >> Yeah, we we have we have uh two that are ours and we have like um a stray that we brought in that had kittens. >> How many kittens are here? four. >> Okay. >> And then yeah, >> so [snorts] I said >> I'm going to have these guys get a hold of animal control and come out. >> Okay. [crying] Um I would get Yeah. [clears throat] Things got really concerning when the officer saw the room where the child was living. It was shocking. No one should have to stay in a place like that. Yet it was the child's bedroom. >> Can we open that? >> Yeah. >> Come on, buddy. >> Yeah. I've been trying to clean up in here as well. >> Sorry. >> Speaking from four. Would you also be able to get with animal control? We have them respond to here [crying] as well. >> Multiple cats and kittens. >> I'm going to get out of his way. I don't I'm being cautious not to step on an animal here. take care of things. >> See all the flies? [crying] >> Just getting a picture over on the side of the bed. Okay. So, what I'm going to need you to do is you're going to have to get a hold of somebody. The the the carpet is just completely saturated. It's just completely saturated. I'm going to need you to get a hold of somebody. You can't be living in this. >> Can I open this door? >> Yeah. >> Is this the bathroom? >> Oh, yeah. Yeah. I was spending some time cleaning up on that last night. He just all over the floor and whatnot. >> [crying] >> I turned the faucet on the sink and it did turn on, which I was shocked. I thought >> I'm having Ryan get a hold of Misty. I don't know what she's going to be able to do, but they can't be in this house. >> We're going to go ahead and make up some signs and get it condemned real quick here. I'll get a hold of the property owner >> and then the property manager and tell them they need to get over here. So hopefully I I hopefully Missy can find a place for them to go. >> But typically in situations like this I would give them 48 hours but this is going to be an immediate thing. >> So hopefully find what >> could she get out of bed? >> She said she can get up and walk. She just doesn't feel good. >> She doesn't feel good. >> The child was taken into custody and brought to the hospital for a checkup. Meanwhile, authorities set a court date and the man was charged with an the life of a child. When it comes time to take responsibility for their misdeeds, no one wants to face it, just like this group who created a whole lot of drama. >> If I wasn't, I could have pushed it out. THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING. OH, SHE BEING MAD. This is [laughter] >> on January 22nd, 2025, police were called to a store regarding a shoplifting incident involving several individuals. Although they later discovered that they were all part of the same group, the cop managed to stop the mother as she was trying to flee into another store. >> Shut what? You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can or will be used against you in court of law. >> Okay. >> You have the right. You move again. I'm going to put you on the ground. Do you understand your right? >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> Can I Can I >> hold on? So So, so why am I here today? >> Um I don't have nothing to do to do with that.

Well, it >> will go a lot better for you if you don't lie to me. >> I'm not lying. I'm not lying to you. I'm literally telling you the truth. Somebody gave me $10. Like, literally, I came in here and asked him cuz I'm not from out here. You feel what I'm saying? I came out here with some people.

Okay. >> So, let me ask you this question. So, you didn't you weren't going to Walmart to steal? >> No, that's not what I was. >> So, then why are you carrying an empty backpack and the only thing in there is Walmart? >> I'm I'm not going to lie to you. >> Then don't lie to me.

You feel what I'm saying? >> Okay, but you did say you were coming out here to steal, but you just didn't take anything. You attempted. >> When the pressure hit hard, she knew she had done something wrong. Finding in a tricky situation, the woman became upset and finally told the truth. >> No. Can you go and make sure you >> I just got to check and make sure you don't have anything. Right in my pocket. Can you put my money in my pocket? >> I don't want to put it in that pocket. >> No, not that one.

You making sure I don't have no warrants. >> I'm just making sure you don't have and that you are who you say you are. >> I am. >> Whose car is it? >> It's um Kamaya's mom. Um if I don't have any warrants or anything then um can you take me back to Poria? >> We shall see. Okay. >> Because I don't have no way. Like they literally left me. >> What's that? >> That's not mine. They in your bag. >> They got that from another store though. The girl the card who card is a mom. That's hers. >> But where was this stolen from? She got that from uh Walmart and um Poria University. >> Kamaya Gibbons. Why do you have Kamaya stuff in your bag? >> Because that bag is not mine. That bag is Kamaya. If you understand what I'm saying, that bag's not mine. Can money stuff go in my money and my child cuz that bag's not that bad's not mine. >> We'll make sure everything gets Let's walk out here to the car. We're going to get back over. The situation became chaotic when the loss prevention officer also detained the other three individuals. Since they weren't telling the truth, things grew even more complicated. >> Get a whole finger in both of them. If anything, they should probably be a little bit tighter. I won't I won't put your seat belt on so you can lean forward. Okay. Since we're just going across the parking lot. All right. >> But see, I'm not I'm not going to go to jail for nobody because I'm not the >> I'm not sure who the all the parties are that were involved or whatever. So right now just with those two, this is all push out. >> I I thought my firm I paid with a firm. I thought it went through. I didn't know I didn't go through until he told me a door. That's why I gave him a card cuz I thought it went through. YOU YOU BRO LIKE ON SOME REAL LIFE BEING respectful G. All that sack in your head. I'm not WITH THAT. LIKE D I SAID MY FRIEND DIDN'T GO THROUGH. IF I WOULDN'T HAVE PUSHED THAT CARD OUT, I COULD HAVE PUSHED IT OUT. THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING. OH [ __ ] BEING MAD. DISRESPECTFUL. D [laughter] >> I TOLD YOU. STOP FOR ONE SECOND. >> WAIT, Y'ALL LET US TALK AND WE GOING TO TALK. >> NO, I'll talk in a minute. You get a chance in a minute. I I've asked you several times and I'm going ask you to be quiet. >> It's suspicious. >> I told you I UNDERSTOOD THAT WE BLACK. IT'S GOING TO BE SUSPICIOUS. WE BLACK PEOPLE. We still >> Let me know cuz right now we're not getting anywhere. [music] >> It's suspicious when I have two people as cold as it is running and walking fast and going across the parking. When I see somebody drop a bag, it's suspicious. Okay. So, >> yeah. Because why Ryan left us like >> you don't have me finish. Are you going to let me finish? So I stop. If everything checks out, we're good, right? You say you didn't steal, you say you didn't do it, then you guys didn't do it. We got cameras, we'll check it. If they got it wrong, guess what? You get to go. But if that's not the case, then we're doing something else. You're not helping yourself by sitting there yelling and talking to somebody that has nothing to do with your actions. If you carry out, >> she's shaking her head. She shaking her head for like I know y'all part don't work. Y'all probably don't use it cuz y'all probably got >> Don't use what >> affirm. Like you know when you pay for your affirm they pay for your whole cart then you cut it off over time on the app. That's what I did. And I skin my phone thing. My phone went dead after I skin it. So I pushed my card up thinking that it went through. I didn't turn around to check FOR NO RECEIPT. I DON'T need no receipt when I spend my money. So I just let it go through and I walked out. When he was like where your receipt at? I don't got no receipt at. He said GIVE ME THE CARD. I GAVE HIM THE CARD. >> But you have a receipt on your phone. Correct. >> Yes. Well, my my phone is dead. Like, it's not turning on. My phone went dead as soon as I did the apartment thing. >> You got ID? >> No, I don't I don't got no ID. >> How old are you? >> I'm 9. >> How old are you? >> Forgive me if I'm asking a silly question, but we're talking like biological mom, right? >> Okay. >> He [laughter] talking about we we don't look alike to you or something. >> You don't talking about biological mom or something? >> Cuz I don't like that. Well, cuz cuz I'm in here trying to explain to y'all that if if it ain't go through, I understand that. But I paid with my affirm and my phone went down there right after that. When he asked me, "Did I have a receipt at the door?" I said, "I don't have a receipt." He said, "Get a card up." I gave it to him. No hesitation. If I was stealing, I WOULD HAVE OVERDID my stuff. Defending myself would have did the most. I gave him the card because I paid with my affirm. I seen the barcode thing. If you play the camera, you see me. Look, look at the cameras. That's me. What you see? >> While the woman was busy insisting on her innocence, the officer knew what had happened and reviewed the video footage. The officer gave her one last chance to be honest, but she didn't realize the trouble she was heading into. >> No, with the with the firm thing. This is an app, right? >> I could go I could go show you ON A BAR. I COULD GO to step check out what she and show you what I did. >> Understood. What happens if you I mean because I don't know >> like it's a app like you pay like you pay for like a car. The app pays for your card as soon as you buy it, but you have to pay them back a certain amount every two weeks or even every couple days over the time >> just like a credit card, but it's >> Yeah, that's how it work. That's how I work with a firm. >> What happens when you like like when he asked you for the stuff and you you bought a bunch of stuff and you leave it here and you leave you still have to pay for it? >> Yes. A firm paid for what what I'm supposed to do with that. >> Briana too, how a firm works through Walmart is you have to order everything online. So you >> I didn't I didn't know that when I got to the thing because he said a firm. I'm like I can I'm like I can save you some money today. I said I'm not going to pay with cash. I'm going pay with the firm. That's why I that's why I clicked on it because I thought I could pay with the firm. If you would if they would have if they if the lady who's in step Washington and she would have came up to me and told me like if you pay for the firm you have to order. She did not say nothing. She asked me what I was paying for. I said I paid for the firm and she walked past her. She didn't say nothing when you came when we walked out. You was like, that's what I'm saying. You was like, "Where your receipt at?" I was like, "I don't have one." You said, "Give me the car." I guarantee you with no hesitation. I didn't argue with you. I didn't try to fight you, PUSH YOU DOWN. You was being funny towards me. So, where your ride at? Where your ride at? They left you. Now y'all walking this. You ain't have to do that. I'm like on my kids. YOU YOU AIN'T HAVE TO DISRESPECT ME CUZ I didn't disrespect YOU. I GAVE YOU YOUR CAR. EVEN THOUGH MY PHONE WAS DEAD, I didn't know that my phone went through or not. You told me exactly you telling me that he had to I'm for I'm from Georgia. It worked different in priority. It's okay if you understand it differently. That's what I'm saying. The correct information. >> See, I didn't know that when it gave me the option next step check out. I thought I could pay with a firm. >> I get that. But how you use a firm though is only through online. It's not a store aspect thing. So, you would only ever use it online. If you were using a firm today, you would not have gone in the store to get your item. We get them for you and we drop them off to your vehicle. That's how that works. >> All right. Go ahead and step out for me, please. Please do not run. I ran the Chicago Marathon. I will catch you. >> I'm not going to run. I'm not like >> Hey, have it's a different thing. It's all the same thing. >> So So what where do we go from here? Like we situation misunderstand. >> Hold on. I'll talk to you in a second. Hold on. If you tell me the truth, we'll we'll work with you. If you don't, you will you will you will not like it. Okay. So, let me just say something here to you now. You have the right to remain silent. So, I just chased that gray car through a field down all the way almost to Poria. So, >> why don't you step out there with him and you step over here with me and talk to him. >> That'll work. And then I'll come talk to you, too. >> So, I just asking you to be cooperative. Okay? If you cooperate and all you did was steal some stuff, I'll give you a ticket in a court date and you'll walk out of here. If you lie to me, I promise you I'm going to make it. We just explained to here that it was a misunderstanding in Poria. I can play with a firm on my phone. I can scan a barcode. My phone is dead right now. You see in the camera, I pulled my phone out and scan the barcode. My barcode went through, but the phone went dead. So, I didn't know it did not go through until he stopped me at the door. >> My mom. The the same person you chased. That's my mom. >> As the conversation continued, the officer wanted to see if any other people were involved. Since multiple individuals had been caught at the same time, the officer started gathering statements separately to see if they matched. All three of you here and took off. Why? Did she have a warrants or something? What's What's the deal? Does that's why she >> No, I think so. She took my other >> Because she was outside in the car. She >> That's what I'm saying. Her and my sister left for us. They did not come back in the store and say we going to go or nothing. They just left him. When he to my car, I'm going to the car to try to explain the situation to my mom. I'm running towards the car to try to explain to her so she come from my car to try to talk to the man. She disappear. He He picking at me. So, where your ride at? They left you this. So I'm running around the parking lot looking for my like yo why I left you. Haha this. Haha that. I'm like what you mean? >> So what it comes down to though is you have these items. You did not pay for them. Okay. I'm going to write you a ticket. You're not a court date. Your mom is in a world of she ran for me. I will find them. There's no question. Okay. So she can come turn herself in and I'll be cool with her or she can hide and I'll come pull her out of bed if I have to. So you can tell her that at a later date. Are these are these other two ladies going to tell me the same thing that you're telling me? Yes. >> Okay. I hope so cuz I mean I don't like it when people lie to me. >> Nobody's lies to you. I promise you. >> All right. >> Red red red pants come in here please. >> Thank you. >> All right. [snorts] Rihanna. Her name last name is Buntley. Is she a sister? A friend? A cousin? What is she? >> My friend. >> Friend. How about um >> Dunigan? The other girl. You don't know her? >> Dunigan. >> Ronisha. >> Okay. So the driver of the car, you know her. I mean it's Kamaya's mom, right? So, did you realize you guys didn't pay for everything or what? What happened? >> No, like she said she was ringing and she was paying on the little app walking outside. She her phone went dead and I was going to get my money in my car so I can pay for that stuff. I ain't going to lie. >> So, so you came into Walmart without any money to buy something? >> No, my my money was in my car. Like the car that I came in is right in the car. So, I'm thinking I bring it in, but I didn't bring it in. So, I check my money. >> Okay. And then you walked out without the items. >> No, I was going to get it. It's a >> No matter how they tried to twist the story, it was hard to change the facts. Every action comes with consequences. And for them, avoiding consequences was no exception. >> I mean, you're being cooperative. I'm going to give you like I told her, I'll give you a court date when you show up at court.
