You were caught shoplifting with a minor with you. >> Nine different incidents. >> So this is number 10. The little boy gets away from her and starts running through the parking lot. He runs up to me saying, "I'm scared. I'm scared. I couldn't write a movie script with this in it. >> This is what she does every time." >> On November 16th, 2024, officers responded to a Target after reports of a woman swapping price tags and underpaying itself checkout for approximately $800 worth of merchandise. >> Jessica, hey, I need to talk to you. >> I'm just getting my car jumped. Yeah, this is going to have to wait. >> I just need to get my son home. >> Okay, this is going to have to wait. >> Follow me to my house and then >> I'm not going to follow you to your house. So, thank these really nice people for attempting to help you and if you still need help and we're done, then I can help you. Okay. >> Okay. Okay. >> All right. Thank you. >> Can you call my son's dad to come get him? >> Um, we'll see what happens. Okay. So, here's the thing is we got called here. Target is saying that you were caught trying to steal some items from them. So, we're going to investigate that and if that's the case, we'll go from there. If it's a misunderstanding, then we'll go from there. Okay? But right now, you are detained. You're not free to leave. If you try to leave, you will be arrested immediately. >> All right. Do you have a cell phone on you? >> It's dead. >> Okay. This is what I'm going to have you do. I got to move my car cuz there's a bunch of people trying to get out and stuff. I'm going to have you just come up towards the front of the store. Okay. This way you don't try to drive away or anything like that. >> My car is dead. >> That's a fair point. Okay. Um I'm still going to have you go up towards the front of the store cuz I'm going to move my car up there so it's out of the way. Okay. >> Here, son. Sit down. Why are you putting down his information? >> Well, because you were caught shoplifting with a minor with you, which means you're also going to be charged with contributing to the delinquency of a minor. >> What does that mean? >> So, basically, in the state of Utah, if you perform criminal acts in front of a minor, it's called contributing to the delinquency of a minor because it leads him to believe that that's okay to do. All right. Will you hang out with them? I'm going to go talk to them. Hello. Sorry. A little bit of a cluster in the parking lot, you think? Jeez. >> Okay, what do we got, guys? >> Is your body camera? >> Of course it is. >> Has to be. >> Say what I was going to say. Then it's going to be full of >> Wow, that was insane. >> Yes. Do you want to >> Is she with one of you guys right there? >> Yes, of course. Oh, yeah. I'll try to leave all the >> uh a good chunk of this is not scanned or if it is scanned, it's ticket switched with a different item. So, yeah, >> that's her before. >> This is her. Um, we have that much evidence on her plus this. Okay. >> Um, I have not filed these yet. I was going to and thought, you know what? She's probably going to come in. I'd rather catch her myself. She came in. I caught her myself. >> So, this is >> We caught her. Jessica Twitch. >> Nine different incidents. >> Nine different incidents. Okay. So, >> so this is number 10. >> This is number 10. Okay. >> Yeah. >> I'm sure you're aware of how like if we catch her, we'll address this one and then you do the online reporting for the other ones. >> Unfortunately, I'm un Yeah, [laughter] >> I'll be honest. I totally like it definitely puts both of us but I mean if I had to now do nine different reports on this I'm >> absolutely there's more important things for you to do it adds a big chunk to me but >> I understand >> I completely understand it we want to cooperate with you guys as much as we can so she selected a whole bunch of stuff went into the fitting room >> um of course we can't see what's happening in the fitting room but when she comes out she has the same stuff that I can reidentify what she went in there with including some of the items that that are in here. Okay. These gummies saw her select those. Most of the stuff that's in here, I saw her select >> and bag and tie this bag shut. >> And when she comes out of the fitting room, we can see that it's in there. Some of the stuff she paid the right price for. Most of it has been price switched, which is part of what she does. She goes and gets a clearance tag, tears it off the merchandise, and puts it on another thing. >> Okay. >> Um, so while she's ringing this stuff up, she's got like a pair of jeans and it comes up white shirt for $4.50. No. Sorry. No. And that's repeated through here repeatedly. >> Okay. >> When she's done, I'm at the best of you. I head out. She comes over to Starbucks, puts in an order, leaves the order there. I don't know why. And then starts going out. I stop her. I know her name. Most of these, the reason why we didn't stop her is because we weren't here. >> Okay. >> Um, we knew that she stole. We knew how she stole. We run that credit card. Here she is again stealing again and again and again. >> So, we stop her. She starts to come back in, stops. I'm like, "Nope, nope, nope. Just follow her." And I I am starting to get the vibe that she's not going to hang out with me in here. We get her in here. I ask her, "Do you have identification?" Yes, I do. I ask her if she's got somebody that can come pick up the kid cuz I know that we're going to be doing this and there's a really good chance that she's got history and probably not going home tonight and I don't want him having to go someplace really freaking scary. >> We'll figure that out. >> Yeah. So, I asked, "Do you have somebody that can pick up the kid?" She says, "No." And he's like, "Yeah, my dad." And she's like, "No, he's out of town." "Well, you have roommates." Yeah. >> No, I'm not calling the roommates. I'm like, listen, it's probably a really good idea for you to get somebody down here. I'm giving you that option to call somebody because I don't know where you're going to go from here, but I know that I'm going to be calling SGPD. So, she then comes up with, I've got to go to the bathroom, which we are. We have to comply with that, right? >> I can stall a little bit. I tried to stall a little bit. Said, hey, I'm just going to call this in. Soon as I'm done calling it in, we'll walk you to the restroom. I call it in. Let me have your identification. I don't have identification. Okay. Well, what happened to it in the last 10 seconds? So, I'm like, "Okay, well, we've got a new name." >> So, I told dispatch, "Hey, she's not being compliant. She's going to probably run." They dispatch you. I hang up. We start walking around. I'm like, "Don't do anything stupid." Before we left the stream, I said, "Listen, don't do anything stupid." I'm not. I just have to go to the bathroom. Okay. Do you want to take him with you? Yes, I do. Okay. I'm like, "Okay, great." She's going to be lying. I can't physically stop anybody. As soon as we get to the door, she goes out. I'm on 911. Let the dispatcher know what's going on. You drive in before you got here. Sorry, that was the other fun part where it just went like, "What is happening right now?" So, she goes out, we watch where car she's getting into. We're standing on the sidewalk. The little boy gets away from her and starts running through the parking lot. I'm like, "Holy crap, this kid's going to get because he's just tall and this is a really rough parking lot for accidents or whatnot." So, [snorts] we come off the sidewalk into the um crosswalk. He runs up to me saying, "I'm scared. I'm scared." And I'm like, "Buddy, give me your hand." And I took his hand. I said, "Listen, just go with your mom. You're going to be okay." She comes running up and I said, "Listen, don't leave. Come back in with me." She's like, "I'm taking him home." Okay, we're calling 911. The police are on the way. She goes out to her car, puts him in the car, goes to the trunk, gets jumper cables out, and I'm like, "No way." Like, >> I couldn't write a movie script with this in it. Luckily, that lady that was there is walking up. Do you need help? Yeah, I need to jump my car. And she starts jumping her car. I'm like, "All right." [laughter] Then I saw you and then I waved and then I pointed and then I came in here. >> Perfect. Okay. So, we're all caught up on all of that. >> Yeah. >> Do you have a number for tonight >> for the dollar amount? >> Yes. >> I can try to go get it. >> Can you try to get me something? >> It's going to be a while and I don't want to make you wait. So, here's what we're going to have to do is >> Well, I could probably if I get a register going. If I can get one of these registers, I could probably get some of it at least. >> You yourself? Well, I can get Morgan to log me in. >> Okay. Yeah. >> Here's the thing is if you can't give me a number tonight, it's not going to be like a make or break deal. It's a lot easier to say this person took x amount of dollars from Target, took x amount of dollars in this. >> Well, honestly, with the history, the fact that this has happened multiple time, I'm going to take her to jail. >> Okay. >> So, like I said, >> I mean, I'm I'm going to guess >> even if it's a guesstimation from you guys, >> more than 500, less than a thousand. I mean, what do the freaking vitamins themselves even cost? >> Those are like 14, 15. >> This is what >> 35 45 >> 28 with all the stuff that's on the inside. I mean, I can >> That's the other thing. She like layered stuff so that when she scans one, there's five items. >> She didn't scan this. She didn't scan this. No, this is underneath all these bags. >> Okay, we don't need the receipt. I can get the receipt off of there. >> Yeah, I I can try to go get this for Are you okay if I open this Dollar Tree bag? Is that >> Absolutely. Our merchandise is in there. >> Okay. I just want to make sure. I think that's that green who shirt right there. >> Yeah, that's that green. I think uh >> some of this may not be ours >> because she came in with this bag. >> Yeah, she came with the bag. But I don't know what all is Dollar Tree. Target bag. We should put a bunch of stuff in. >> If you can't find it right away, >> just don't worry about it. >> Just set it to the side. That's going to take a while. >> Okay, I'll be honest. Guestimation over five or under five? >> Over. >> Over 500. >> Closing >> today. >> Yeah. >> Over five today. >> Over five. And honestly, I won't be shocked if it's over at the grand. Okay. Well, the range is 5 to,500. So, for the class A, >> it's going to be 15. >> All right. So, we'll just go with the class A. And I mean, honestly, if it ends up not being a class A, we can change the charges. It's not that big of a deal. >> So, we'll go class A over five. >> Okay. So, what were you saying? >> Um, the only other thing, can I get can I watch a little bit of video footage? >> Absolutely. >> With that, I can at least articulate in, you know, my arrest statement that, you know, I observed her miss scan or not scan items. Well, we can do this to her so she can >> technically that's her property right there. >> Okay. >> I believe at this point she walked away from it and left her where it was. So you guys can throw it in the trash. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. I mean it's not going to go with her to jail anyway. So >> there's also a really really strong possibility that she has more layered on her >> person from being in the room which of course I couldn't see. Okay. So she's going to this going to be her right here. This is what we're watching live. Okay. So, when she scans these light colored sweatpants, >> it is not shorts. Extra extra large. So, right away I'm like, "Okay, she's good. This is what she does every time." So, there's that one. Um, she'll be talking to the team member here to take the little red tag that you see off there. >> The next one's going to be these jeans. These jeans are not a great shirt. Okay. >> For 350. >> Thank you. Thanks for being here so quick. >> Absolutely. I got lucky. >> Awesome for that, man. I watched it pop up and then I saw the name and I was like that name sounds familiar and then I was like I'm going. So >> you know who she is. >> You can't tell me. I understand. I kind of figured and I think she kind of figured because she said you're you could have let me go. You can let me go. I'm like no I can't. My system is going to said you see the camera up there. It's watching that I arrested you and if I let you go then I lose my job and I'm sorry that's not >> that doesn't work for me. >> Yeah. If you guys get this numbers and stuff figured out tonight, could you call in and just so I can get a basic amount of this much property stuff like my report? I mean, I'm not going to go through in detail that this item was scanned as this and stuff, but I'll send that to you on an email with a link to the video. >> Which is a hell of a lot of video because she was in here for quite a while. She was in form. So, it's going to be a lot of video, but it'll be in there by time. Yep. 800 so far. >> We're at 800 so far. Okay, >> that's going to work for me. >> Sister is coming to pick up him. She's on her way right now. >> He's got a coat in the car. >> Okay, >> that it's just in the back seat. >> Do you want to roll the windows and everything up on it? >> Yeah. >> Okay, let's go do that right now. >> Okay. >> Is that keeping you warm? >> Uh, little bit better? >> Kind of. Good. >> I still want >> Yeah. arrested. >> Yeah, you're getting arrested. >> So, if we can get him in a car if you're good with that? >> Yep. That's totally fine. >> Okay. All right. Are you Kimberly? >> Oh, hey, listen. She's right here. >> Okay. Hang tight here for a second. >> All right. Let's go. Okay. Face her. Place your hands on top of your head. >> Yep. Interlace your fingers. She just got some cats and stuff on her hand that I just saw. I don't really want to touch them. >> So, Jessica, I'm going to search you real fast. And that's money. >> So, we're just gonna we're gonna count it just so you know what it is. Put it in front of you and then we'll make sure it goes in. >> Okay. So, we got 20 30 40 50. We got one, two, six, 7, $58 in cash and we've got at [snorts] least three quarters, some nickels, and some dimes. >> All right. They're going to recount it in the Joe for you. Just so you're aware. I mean, you kind of know how this goes, but like if I miss something on you and you take it into the jail, it's a felony charge. Okay. So, anything I missed on you that they're going to find in a scanner? No. >> Okay. >> Last question. Do you have anything on you that you concealed that belongs to the store? >> No. >> Any clothing items or anything like that? >> No. >> Okay. Just making sure. They said you spent some time in the dressing room just checking to make sure you didn't like throw a couple sweaters on or anything like that that belong to the store. No. >> Okay. Nothing like that. All right, perfect >> question. I know you paid Target some money. >> Uhhuh. >> Do you remember how much you charged your card for? Watch out so I can close. >> I paid cash and it was like paid cash $130. >> $130. >> Yeah. The woman was charged with shoplifting and contributing to the delinquency of a minor.
