On April 29th, 2025, a man went to the Port Orange Police Department to report that an unknown woman had confronted him in the Walmart parking lot in Port Orange, Florida. Upset that he parked in a law enforcement only spot, she left a note on his car, sparking an argument between them. >> Hello.

Okay, that's good. Hopefully more than fair. >> I will I will, [laughter] you know, depend on Edgewater's pretty bad. They got some bad apples over there, >> but um >> Okay. >> Yeah, she don't look familiar, but maybe reach out to that >> to see if she is a police officer. >> And if she is, is she out of line being out of her? Way out of her jersey. >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, obviously we address that. But then if she's not, then we have a whole separate thing of potentially IDing who this person actually is. And it might be a resident here in Port Orange that we need to locate and investigate for impersonating a police officer. >> She says she lives here. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. And I doubt you would live here and work in Belleview. I mean, you're drive you're not going to drive. >> Now, can I give you my phone number?

Not just something for you. I mean, we don't want >> She might be just going around flashing back. >> Yeah. And like >> just looking at her behavior and and you know, obviously I've been in this job for over 17 years now. Is her behavior doesn't come off as like almost like a crazy personal like is she actually impersonating? I mean, I see more than that, but I'll figure it out. >> All right, man. I appreciate it. >> All right, I'll let you know. >> All right. Yep. Thanks. >> Officers went to Walmart and spoke with the manager who confirmed the woman was never employed there in any capacity. They also obtained additional surveillance footage of her inside the store. Through investigative techniques, officers were able to identify the woman. It turned out she was working as a caretaker for a retired police officer who suffered from severe [music] mental decline. He had no idea she had taken his badge and used it at Walmart to impersonate an officer. On May 2nd, 2025, officers went to the woman's residence to speak with her. She admitted to using the retired officer's badge when [music] she saw a man repeatedly parked in the law enforcement only spot. She told officers that she parked there while bringing the retired officer to Walmart and became upset when she [music] saw a man parked there. She explained that the badge was still inside the officer's car, which she had access to [music] as his caretaker since he could no longer drive. She then showed officers where the badge was located in the vehicle. >> Not going to run, but your hands were behind the bag if you fall down. Maybe come around. Probably come around. >> Does this button unlock? Is this for the car? Oh, that's for something else. >> Yeah. >> Oh, it's already unlocked. >> Oh. >> So, if you open the door >> and see that little black thing on the top that's got the push button right in the center above the air conditioner. >> Oh, yeah. In there. >> Right in there. This >> That's the one. >> Do you want me to actually lock it >> or? >> No, it's fine. >> All right. Uh, let's go see if we can find your dad. I'll put the keys back inside. >> Okay. >> You both live here? >> I'm sorry. You guys both live here? >> Me and my son. >> No, your dad. Does he live here, too? Or Oh, okay. >> I don't think so. He He like let the cat in then shut the door. >> Officers then spoke with her father to explain the situation and he appeared visibly shocked. >> Hey, uh we have a unfortunate situation here. Okay. Um Alexis is is going to be placed under arrest. Okay. Um I'm not sure if you know about Did you tell him about that whole incident at Walmart? >> Get a chance. >> Okay. Um do you want me to get into it with him? My >> um the day Officer Coats came by earlier that day. She had a confrontation with a gentleman over at the Walmart market here. Um while um she had a concern, a fair enough concern about an individual parking in a law enforcement only spot there. Um while addressing that with them, she identified herself as an officer and actually wrote a note on there like this is a warning from the Port Orange Police. Um ended up showing them this badge here and and saying she's an officer. So um unfortunately of a serious the incident itself never really turned into anything serious. They ended up going their separate ways, things like that. But in general, something like this could be very serious. Somebody impersonating officer, whether it be with a badge or blue and red lights on their vehicle. >> We have that badge or you keeping it. >> It's going to go into evidence for right now. But >> that's Jim's badge. >> Yeah. No, I know it it'll it'll be returned to him. Um but I'm not just going to leave it here to, you know, I don't know where it ends up. So, we'll make sure it gets back to him. He's got another one. We actually seen another one at his house while we were over there. Um but yeah, obviously it's something that we want him to have. But just back on the fact of just the potential seriousness of the incident itself in its nature, um we are going to make an arrest on it today. Um she is going to go down to the the Valuch County Jail. Um she will have a bond if that's something you want to work out. So she's not staying there tonight. >> How severe is this thing? >> Uh it is a a thirdderee felony. So it's it's a felony the lowest level of a felony, but it is a felony charge. Yeah. >> Okay. What are the >> bonds? Probably going to be around 3,000 total. Um, usually through a bondsman, if you go through them, they want 10%. So, you're looking at at least probably like $300 as as up to a bondsman. >> And I've got that in my bank account. I can give it right back to you. >> But that's not the point. >> Yeah. >> The point is, didn't I say something to you? I said, "Hey, look, you're not an officer." >> I know. >> Cuz I've seen your car parked there and it's like Jim was with me. >> Well, Jim was with me. probably fine, but >> Oh, parked at the law enforcement spot. >> Yeah. >> The one the far on the left closest to the >> Yeah. Well, this was an in of another guy parking there and she said something to him that I >> said something to you. >> You're not law enforcement. You can't park there and which really anybody can. It's not It's not like it's a handicap spot that's findable. You know, you can't be fined for parking in that spot. It's just something that Walmart puts up for, you know, if an emergency vehicle or something has to go there. >> Yeah. courtesy. >> Yeah. Um but yeah, she actually addressed that with him. You mind? That's not like a knife or anything. You mind just setting that in? This is a show. >> Okay. You mind? You're stand there with like a blade. >> No, I know. But um so yeah, that's just kind of >> All right. Well, I appreciate >> that. What's that? >> No. No. I'm That's why I said >> I don't think Jim, but I think he's going to ride with her tomorrow, Sunday to get his haircut. Oh, >> okay. >> That's the way things like that happen. >> Yeah. Yeah. Um I mean, he's got other ones. I mean, it's his property. >> At least we got the This was the one out of the car, so at least we took that one. Yeah. No, he's he's allowed to have it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And usually in a situation like that, they do give retired officers their badge or something like that to have as and at some point he was an actual sworn officer, so he's allowed to have it. Um, >> okay. But he's still allowed to park there even though he's retired. >> Anybody can park there. Really? It's actually not a required. >> So why is this an offense? >> That's not even the offense is her claiming to be an officer. She >> she said, "I'm an officer to this guy that was parked there." Actually wrote a note on his car said, you know, from the Port Orange Police. this is a warning for parking here and and all that stuff. So, she was almost taking enforcement action as an officer. So, that's that's definitely the the concern. It wasn't the parking there. The parking there we really don't care about. And >> you have children. >> I do. Yes. >> They're younger ones. Not >> get older. [laughter] >> Yeah, they do. I'm waiting. So, >> all righty. Thank you for uh the understanding and and everything. I appreciate it. Yeah. No, I know. All righty. She was charged with impersonating a law enforcement officer and was transported to Valuchia County Jail with a $3,000 bond.
