As the search continues, she becomes emotional and says she was only trying to do something nice for her daughter who's been sick. >> Now, the reason we're here, we already know what happened. We had someone watching the video. So, what items did you take and where are they? >> They're in the bags in the bottom of the cart. >> What are the items? Do you remember? >> Just the um clothes that's in the bag for my daughter. >> Do you have anything else from the store on your person? >> No. >> Okay. Is this your ID >> right there?

You do know that, right? >> The b the basket she was pushing out. That was That's not my >> But but what I'm saying is if you were sticking stuff inside the bag that >> was concealing stuff. >> The only thing I did was put stuff in the basket. But that's the difference, right? >> Yeah. If you weren't sticking stuff inside the bag that was used to conceal with that, >> don't worry about it. But if you were sticking stuff inside the bag, >> okay, >> that was with all the concealed merchandise, then we're good. >> Um, if you were sticking stuff inside there, I'm still not going to take you to jail today.

Take a seat for me >> while we figure this all out. >> Meanwhile, her companion apologizes and complies as the officers begin their investigation. >> I appreciate you being cool. >> Yeah, it's no problem. I haven't touched >> and you you've been cool. And if it turns out that you were just sticking stuff inside the basket and that's the difference. >> Clearly they probably what you see me stick inside the basket was food stuff like I promised her. I haven't done like anything in this store. I don't do stuff like that. I don't >> I didn't even know like she was even doing anything like she she took stuff or she what did I mean like I'm totally missed that I guess cuz I was looking at toys and I was looking on my phone. So, here's what I'll do. I'll make a deal with you. If they don't confirm on your warrant, >> I'm going to take you out of cuffs. >> Okay. >> I'm going to send you on your way with your bag. >> Mhm. >> And if it's determined that you actually did steal, >> I'm going to be sending a ticket in the mail, a citation, because like I said, regardless, because of the way that you've acted tonight, I wasn't going to take you to jail anyway. She wouldn't have went to jail anyway, but she resisted the other officer or officers, our sergeant and another officer. >> Uh, you guys wouldn't have gone to jail anyway. >> Me? >> Oh, you're out of Georgia, too? >> Yes, sir. >> Sarah's got a felony warrant out of a >> I did not know that either.

She said Sarah gave it to her. Sarah met her on the bus originally. She You said it was your cousin. >> Then you said you were friends. Then you said you hadn't even met the guy. >> So here's the deal. >> That was found on your person which means you're in possession of it. So if we call and find out that you were >> Wow. And I took it from her. I'm serious. I took it from her because I thought she was messing with the girl and I was like, "Who the is this?" And she was like she met her on the bus. Wow. Oh my god. Don't leave this. >> Back in the patrol car, the woman is told that her actions were caught on surveillance, including footage of her concealing merchandise inside a red bag. >> I mean, regardless of what the outcome of the ID is, right, from the sounds of it, the other officer told you you were under arrest for resisting as well. >> I wasn't resisting. >> So, shocked me. >> Has has she been read? So on top of the resisting, >> you're also under arrest for theft at minimum third degree. >> Oh my god. >> Probably going to jail tonight. >> Please, my daughter. I don't want to go home to my daughter. >> I'm sympathetic on a lot of things. >> I swear to God. I swear to you, >> the crying. >> I'm not. I know, but my daughter is [ __ ] I'm not even >> I used to get in trouble and I used to. Sir, >> let's be done crying. Serious. Okay. But my daughter Let's stop crying. I'm not even feeding you. My daughter is sick and that's why I came here. I just came here. >> Sarah's calling your daughter. Anyways, back to what I'm saying. >> What is she calling my daughter for? That's not her daughter's >> to let her to let her know what's going on. Okay. You, not Sarah. You were caught on video concealing stuff into a bag. >> Oh my god. >> You were at the register >> scanning some items and paying for some of those items. >> And I didn't pay for the ones in the bag. >> You didn't pay for the ones in the bags and arguably some other ones as well. And I I mean I no everything that I scanned I did pay for though. >> Yeah. Everything that was scanned was paid for. That is correct. And that's on the >> stuff that's in the bag and stuff and the stuff that was in the buggy and I already told him sir that yes it was in there and like I said my daughter was sick last night and I felt bad because I'm disabled. I don't have no money and I don't give you no sympathy. Not >> and but my daughter's been sick and that's the whole reason why I came to Washington. I haven't been in trouble since I've been here. I've been good and I've been trying to take care of my daughter because I felt bad and I haven't got her nothing and I just felt bad. and I want to do something nice for my daughter. Just surprise her. That's it. That's just being honest. It was And it was because my daughter would much rather be at home helping her. >> Moments later, police contact the actual owner of the ID who confirms it was stolen and agrees to press charges. >> Hello. >> Hello.
