I don't even know I mean I would have all right well she's been she's been still in a bunch of places I ain't going to lie to you have you been with her at any of those no have you driven her anywhere else no she asked me for a ride but it be to like plasma center but you have have you taken her to a store recently never took her to a store all right what's your phone number crazy yeah we got two females hitting four stores here in bar County you you don't you don't got a female they have used the last name of sim well this is her ID I obviously took a picture of it um mind if I a picture yeah here's this I got her address and I got her phone number here's his information and I'll I'll take this I'll just need you drive her but we got to see how much all this is yeah no problem we'll we'll look at it all but I'm going to let them out of here for now since none of them were involved right as far as you know they didn't come in the store any you can ID them yeah I ID subjects here as well yeah I I know the guy in the back did the other guy come back um no I'm going to see if I can find yeah the the guy in the back I know it's um that's her boyfriend I know his name I know her the only one we don't know for sure is that male in the front the boy yeah it's something they got the same last name Franco say that one more time I said we were going in to apply for job that's that girl went in she she was he's like legally blind so he probably don't have like a criminal well you'd be surprised I've arrested people that's murdered people that are legally blind for real you want to take a quick look at a picture and you say that with her then I can tell you what we got but then again I'm cool with whatever you want to do how you well do you have something of our face like good of her face show me what you got a black feemale we a black jacket how much all this will be oh yeah this will be over 500 now they both got stopped at the door and we were covered the hair keeps stanging yeah that that looks like her nose to me this is one that's hit us more than the other I don't know who that is she's thinner yeah that kind of looks like that girl I it's hard to tell though run together it's hard to tell but does that look like her to you3 that nose kind of what was his date of birth uh he didn't he never would give it he can't push it I I don't think he's involved in anything I mean he could be a suspect in a in a shoplifting some of these I mean no that's not any of them be the ring leader of it all I told you did you think it was that guy no no the guy I sent you pictures of did you not get those I don't think so yeah I think we identify that guy he's in jail the we're not going to have good pictures of as far as terrible do you do you think that's her and the Calvin Klein I mean possibly you want to they left the name of sim well her name so that that's her I mean that nose looks the same I'd have to really study a picture and see but we can always identify that later so uh I guess we need to take this in and uh we're pretty sure she's been involved in something else correct this girl oh I see what you're saying I think she would probably be that well let's look at it inside do y can y'all still go theide said that she was waiting on signal for to come supposedly the other girl gave her the signal come well she just went in to like so that's probably what's going on here um they do have conversations with Associates all the time right friend what have convers yeah it would be hard for us to charge her with anything right now obviously we'll build some evidence against them and try um so can you bring her into the loss prevention you know we'll try to question her about it so we'll just take it all you can take your stuff and loss prevention start giveing me a price for all this and I'll let them go for now just follow me let me get my computer and just walk her up there all right so I'm going to park next to his car he's going to get uh he's going to get his computer and we're going to go inside back inside TJ Maxx into the Lost provision office okay so if I need to find you I can find you and you haven't been involved in any other case here so do I have to walk in front of the house or in front of the store do what to walk in front of the store yeah we're going to go inside of it wait do what yep they've been following these groups around they had some people come up here and they've got you know other incidents you haven't you haven't I'm just I'm laying it out there I haven't been involved in this but what I'm saying is you haven't done any other test with her all right well miss well I'm detective Franco that's fine I know where to find if I need you but if I can find his car that's fine you understand what happened right she walked out with a cart full of and it is what it is so she's going to go to jail I'm fairly certain it's going to be a felony just based on how much that stuff is in there so we'll deal with it later thank you find your car for a second all right so try to throw your left foot out first okay and then and then step out I don't want you to fall on your face right here there you go all right we're going to go into this lost prevention office for a few minutes we going to add it all up see how much it is can I put my face yeah I'm pretty sure it's going to be over 500 I don't know how much you got but we're going to add it up and see what the amount is where do you live what's your address I've been over there that is not your address I'm not going to give

standing there with her go let the patrol guy in there with her there's an officer there with her all I know you hello Hi how are you good get job on that red chair right there a lot of people don't realize that every business like this has somebody I'm assuming it's her that gets paid to literally sit back here and find people that are stealing like literally their job so you're fine you know

they do their own thing like I do appreciate what you're doing you're helping me know you caused me some trouble here lately I appreciate it not judging you everybody's got their own situation you make decisions every day just like I do sometimes I don't make the good one either that's my wife okay women how old are you 25 25 you're going arested before same type stuff what have you been arrested for I mean I can look it up I'm just curious you got in some kind of fight the other day yeah have you ever been arrested for shoplifting no sir to be honest I mean I really just start like a yearo you I'm just honest it's easy right now it really is it's to be honest a li all right you done talking to her for now all right so I want to talk to you he's a civilian I'm a police officer obviously so before I can talk to you I have to make sure you understand your rights and that you want to talk to me okay cuz I do got a few things to show you and I want to ask you about some stuff so you have the right to remain silent having these rights in mind you wish should talk to me now well I'll show you this anyway I'm not going to question you since you want a lawyer but the other day Walmart showed me a picture they asked me if I knew this person I was like oh I know her still haven't gotten around to signing all that stuff on you from Target no I'm but all the stuff before there nothing since then I'm talking about all the stuff before that all the TVs and stuff but he showed me that I was like I know who that is and I that's I don't know who that is that's who you was with I think I know who she is but I'm not sure but he showed me that and I was like even with the mask I know who that is that's you that not you I mean that's who I thought was you that's what I told him but so we're going to let this officer get back in here and you're just going to be booked for just felony shoplifting today does he the door I don't think so he hasn't knocked he had to run out to his car he's getting a baring for him but all these uh businesses are starting to know you so you got to knock this off did you said you said you said you got her last night too right well I'll take a warrant on her for that I mean I got to do a whole another thing so I'll take that after we get her out of here I looked at your cameras and I thought I saw everyone running through the store I was like I got pretty good quality video better than most I'll say that E's pretty good too yeah the best I've seen is Belk man they just they have like 500 cameras up in that place yeah they're Lo yeah it is it's baffling how that dude who operates the camera I mean he just he'll follow people through the store switching cameras moving them zooming in moving here like good Lord man like a fight controller or something you know and you got a good one he's she's new at it she pretty D good yep it's likee she's not even the store she's used to she just so you said you came in a date or left a date last I can't I said like around 8:00 it was which fits Theo coming in at this time not fit for this store generally this is your Winder time frame she was hanging out with some different people today I guess you know what time you left you know what you were wearing I had no white T-shirt so the other girls name we talk to her this week no when I had got lot uh we fell out cu apparently she had put something on Facebook about me so I haven't talk to her your partner in crime put you out on Facebook like that Ain nobody my partner one of the two of them actually hit in Winder Monday was the 18th right just so you're aware I know you've gotten caught for shoplifting before I don't know what the amount was but you do understand like a felony is no less than a year is what is the definition of what a felony is so if you're hitting all these different stores and you're taking felon felony amounts each time I mean you could have 20 years for stealing stuff yeah you know I as well just be Hest yeah I know I mean I and and we appreciate that I'm just saying in the future once you get all this cleared up still it ain't it ain't it it ain't worth it because you got like I like I said you got ladies like this and and people at Bel and every store they have somebody that sits back in an office like this and just watches people like and they're good like they will see you if you even look like a little suspicious they will see it and that's it they may not get you when you walk out the first time or the fourth time but you can tell they know you know I mean in different counties right when I've seen him SP like who is him yeah I mean but like they they they track people across the state we have people that come down from from northern northern Georgia all the way through and they get tracked the whole way people don't realize that but what I'm saying is once you get this cleared up it's not it's not worth it's not worth 10 years did that for just tell her she's Mar from this store for two years so so so he did that form and he's going to give you that but that's from TJ Maxx but just for our purposes tell her she's borred from this store for two years you are borrowed from this store for two years and I clearly know you well so don't come back in 2 years or they'll call me and I'll have to take warrants I ain't playing with you no he's the best detective in the county you him I was gu me he's trying to run you don't want to play with him he's he's the best I'm glad you didn't cuz I was like I don't want to tase her but I got my Taser but I was like I don't want to but do you usually carry your taser I do because guy tried to kill me with a trash can lid one time oh we tried to St this dude at the mall and he took his Trash Can Lid started swinging around I didn't have my Taser so see so he's going to take you now that's her barring form uh just they out of trouble I mean I know you and I know where to find you don't come back here all right so be thinking about uh you got her on Facebook right I don't have her somebody show me the SP she what's her user ID on there I don't know her name on Facebook somebody screenshotted what she said about my name on the post what's your boyfriend's name again her boyfriend no relation they just have the same last name it's kind of weird and then is who to who that's my boyfriend cousin cousin the guy was in the car no who that othery car well the other guy that's oh that's on his mama's side but who the that's they have ran all their name and stuff they don't have nothing to do with that is being a little difficult they they don't have nothing to do with that I don't know his last name he's I mean like he says somebody but he's like legally blind and takes him 10 seconds to like Focus I hi I I think that's legit he does they said he was blind like he has like paperwork thing like I told you I've arrested blind people for about killing somebody so I mean but it's hard for the I think yeah going steing that was the dark blue van right what kind of band is that is that a Chevy Toyota what is it it's a Honda Honda did you say it was white or dark blue talking about yeah well I heard you I heard you say white van that's why I was yeah I thought he was talking about knew van down there didn't pick the tag up cool that van belongs to who the van the lady yeah frankco I don't know if you heard her earlier she said that a good bit of the stolen items are like at her mom's house she gave her mom the comforters what well stuff stuff like that so yeah yeah not saying not saying she's in trouble or she's the one who I was just pointing out something that you said earlier while you were talking about yeah it's not no she it's still packaged it's still new and you want to get that back to us so you don't have to pay for that through restitution that helps you so if you know where where did you take it to your mom's house I had took one comter there that I was using what color it's the pink of comfor but I used it you care if we go get it get get I'm just asking I don't want my mama to be in that whenever y'all are done I'll take her when I to frco St call me I don't know call you he's the one to talk to I'm telling you he tracks people down across County I'm just saying like how much you Rec and get back to frco that would help he's asking if you have any stored anywhere is what he's asking have I nor you makes it easy it's just less charges like less felonies basically like remember what I said 20 20 felonies that's 20 years that you got to deal with that's a long time today you're just getting one just one I'm just saying cuz once they proved last night I'm not going to do it no I'm just telling you I'm going give you my number done give that to her you should really try to work with Franco because he's the one who kind of seals the the the Fate on this so if you can work with them work with them right you don't have to by law you can say F off but like I mean he's got minimum what last night he's got I mean he he's got 12 of them probably honest I I know but I yeah no I'm just saying because this it's more than just today and you just going right now and then it's it's over with you know tomorrow it's it's a little bit more than that so in the future I would I would just work with him that's what I can recommend um whenever y'all are done I'll take her but if you want to I'm done with her I don't know if he's yeah you're good okay so what we're going to do we're just going to go to the Clark County jail and um we'll go on ahead and do the thing right it sucks but we got to do it let's get it over with all right you'll be able to bond out yeah you'll be able to bond out they're not going to keep you forever he's so sneaky don't mess with frankco man I'm telling you I'm telling you so I got to I got to hold your arm like last time I'm not going to hold you tight I just I've had people Sprint down the road and almost get hit by cars while they were in handcuffs hey hold up pull our mask down real Qui he's going to take a picture of you okay okay here I'll pull it oh I don't want to Puck you with that piece of paper thank you there you go gotcha all right so I'm not going not going to squeeze your arm or anything crazy like that I just got to make sure that you don't run off I had somebody uh a few weeks ago I had somebody almost uh get hit by a car running down Prince Avenue when they were in handcuffs and it was uh what they supposed to get a handcuff that's that's the he didn't understand that but and so the the car is going to be right over here I moved it so we'd be a little bit closer all right he's already searched you and padded you down and all that stuff right no he didn't search me but all I got is like some coins and like you don't have anything that I don't care about coins or anything yeah nothing that you're going to get a charge for at the jail like drugs weapons okay yeah you're good right well I will give you some credit a lot of the people that I arrest for shoplifting have like meth or drugs on them so good job for not doing that it would shock you how many times I have here I'm going to crack this yeah it's already cracked AC back there it would shock you how many times I've arrested someone for shoplifting and they've got a felony amount of drugs on them while they're shoplifting it blows my mind cuz you're already taking a huge risk right and then they just I don't know what this person is doing um they just add drugs into the into the mix it just don't it just don't make no sense to me like I understand doing what so like all right so before I was a police officer when I was in College you know like everybody's broken the law at some point obviously I never like did anything crazy but I always had a rule if you're going to break the law you break one law at a time right so like if you're going to speed a little bit just speed don't speed and be drunk right like you don't break multiple laws at a time and it reduces your chances of getting in trouble for it right so if you're going to like roll through a stop sign don't be don't have an open container when you do it like I don't know it just people baffled me when they when they had do like multiple different things they could get in trouble for at the same time it just doesn't even make sense to me but I say all that to say thank you for not having drugs on you how we doing hey I got one female thank you all right yeah I can open the door on that side here watch your hand I don't want to close it in there my bad I couldn't remember which side you went in on came in on that side but I had stretched my leg oh kicked your feet up I don't blame you things are uncomfortable as crap all right you I didn't bring anything right this is all that I brought all right I know I've said it before it's the last thing I'll say about it just don't don't take no more stuff it ain't it ain't worth it if you get out and you just have such a hard time not taking something cuz I know it's just kind of instinct you're like well I could you know but if you're just having a hard time with that just buy everything you need on on Amazon just cut out the Temptation right because it ain't it ain't worth it it's it's really not not for not for clothes and bedding items I got three shirts that I've been wearing for the same three shirts like when I'm not in this m I wear three or four shirts I've been wearing them for 3 years I nobody need a bunch of stuff they're they're they're about to take the handcuffs off it'll which side thank you that better I just don't want to see you back in here for this you know it's different if you like your boyfriend cheats on you or something you know like that's different I can kind of understand that but I just you know I just it's just not it's not worth it but that's all I'll say about it I'm not going right
