Product has already been stolen Well, then I can pay for it - Or you you guys can return it - Yeah, go over... Go over that way Go han... Go handle your traffic stop and then come back Oh, okay Yeah, so just have her... I'm confused You said we already caught you at your house What does that mean? I have pigs that live over there too Screaming and doing some weird stuff Jordan had encountered Palm Bay Police before In January 2024, she was arrested in a separate domestic battery case. And you got some pigs over there - that are doing some weird stuff - Coppers Right? Police Oh, okay, okay Yeah, you're good Um... ah, okay So... - I don't wanna be (unintelligible) - You live off of... You live off of Forest Knoll Have you ever been arrested before? I have, actually What for? Domestic violence against somebody that put his hands on me first Oh, I got you Okay - Literally almost killed me - So what... what had happened today? I lost my wallet and I felt like being rebellion I lost my wallet I don't know where my wallet is So I'm getting a new ID tomorrow, I guess because DMV is not open today I am going to the bank I already did that I have a digital wallet in my phone I didn't feel like doing because that takes way too long to do So I'm waiting for my card to come in It's going to mailing to my mom's house cuz I don't get my mail at my parents' house And... that's it And I have the money I can trade, trade, trade it out Okay I have the money I showed you my bank account I can show you my bank account as well That's okay It's neither here nor there because a crime had already committed - How much... - So, where's the owner? So me and him can talk so we can figure it out cuz I have the money Yeah, that's a great question I have the money Is this your friend, or? Ah, no - Oh, okay - Can I talk to the owner? He does... He wants you trespassed Oh, well then I won't come back Okay, good. He wants you charged too Okay, so... I'm a worker So this is your product? Yes Okay You can sit down I wanna sit right here No Stand up Stand up For what? You're gonna be detained Cuz I got up? Yeah Appreciate your cooperation at this point Well, one last test, right? Huh? Well, I need a smoke cuz you're making my anxiety go up I don't need to give you a smoke Well, you do eventually No, I don't Eventually No, I don't I need my water I am so confused Okay The employee said Jordan was told to pay but walked out anyway. Store surveillance later supported her account So my coworker... I was on the computer where my coworker was and she was showing her it She's like, "Can I see that grinder?" She's like, "Okay" So she hands it to her to look at and she just f***ing walks away And I'm like, "Hey" "You have to come back and pay for that" "No, I don't" "Like, I'm not paying for that" - And I was, like - Okay Well, and I went out to just go take a picture of her license plate but I saw him And I'm like, "Hey, can you come help me?" Yeah And she didn't stop I mean, I asked her, "Hey" "Can you please come pay for that?" Okay And then my boss he doesn't play about that - so he wants all… - Yeah You have that all on the... the camera footage? - Yeah, okay - Are you able to pull that up? Yeah Okay And the owner wants to pursue charges? Yeah Did you want to talk to him again? No You work there? Yeah So you are willing to pursue charges - on behalf of him? - Yeah - Okay - Yeah Um, did my partner get your ID? Driver's license? I have to go grab it real quick Okay Well, what I can do This is your product? Yes Let me snap a photo of it in a sec For Jordan, the price remained part of the argument The grinder was worth $8.99, but the issue had already moved beyond the price I just showed up I have no idea what's going on - So - Well I lost my wallet I lost my ID with everything in it My ID is getting tomorrow I guess, I'm getting my new ID tomorrow I gotta put a digital card in my phone That takes too long to do It takes $2 It's $2 I was gonna come back with the $2 dollars I have the change at home I was just gonna put the change in the freaking thing You... You were gonna... I'm sorry, I'm lost Can you say all that again? I lost my wallet No, no, yeah, you lo... You lost your wallet You were gonna get a new one tomorrow Yes, I went to the bank because I lost my card - Okay - Cuz I have a digital card in my wallet or my phone now But, I didn't do that cuz it takes too long So take... that's $2 So I walked out with it What's $2? The little grinder that I took and I was just gonna give the money back I can go home and go get the change Oh well I can go home and go get the change Or we can just trade it out I won't come back So that... That's not really how things work unfortunately It's a misdemeanor charge It's not even It's literally not even a misdemeanor charge So... it's still a misdemeanor because it's retail theft Uh, what... What you're telling me that you did is retail theft So I mean, regardless if it's a misdemeanor charge that's still an arrestable offense And just because... and I I get you're saying... No, no, we can do... We can do that in a minute They can go around They don't have to come through here We can figure that out later, but... - What's your name? - Don’t yell at him What's your name? Jordan (Redacted) Jordan, okay - Jordan, I'm John - Why did you yell at him? I didn't yell at him I didn't yell at him He was far away and - I'm trying to stop... - (Unintelligible) so you didn't let him Well, I didn't... I was talking to you That doesn't matter - You just yelled at an old person - Jordan What's with the attitude? I mean, I'm, I'm not... Because that's attitude what you just did to him I'm sorry - I don't like that - I understand that We're investigating the fact that you committed a crime - and you're telling us you did - It's $2 - I can make a fair trade - Okay, what if I were to take something from your house that's worth $2? Take it all You guys already did - Take it all - That's... That's a really great mindset - but okay - Right? It is a great mindset Take it all You guys already did Not being serious, but... No, you guys already did Look Doesn't matter if it's $2 $1, $5, a penny If it doesn't belong to you you can't just take it and say "Oh, I'm gonna come back and pay you later" I'm tuning you out Okay, that's fine You tune me out I mean, you already told us what you did, so... I did tell you guys And it's $2 I don't lie Never met you - That's why I asked you - (Unintelligible) look into... the database and you see my ID You know my ID because you look it up Okay So... again - I just showed up - (Unintelligible) your screens than you are freaking looking around I mean, yeah, we have the ability Can you guys take these off? Go... No, no You don't tell us how things are gonna go I had somebody do that to me I didn't call the cops on them I called the owner instead I mean, that's... You know, you really should call us - if somebody steals - No, that's not what you do That is what you do No, no, not at all You just make a fair trade and you talk to the owner - Hmm, that's not... - That's what I did That's... I mean, if you know the owner Here's the thing That's if you know the owner - and you wanna do that before taking it - That's what I did (unintelligible), I'm nice You can negotiate a trade with somebody That's not how... That's how nice I am Okay, but that's not how businesses work That's how you can negotiate a trade with somebody you know before... taking something But you don't just go into a place and take something and then say you're gonna come back and pay them later That's theft That's theft Well, that's when you just talk to the owner Okay, but that's also not how businesses work You understand that... You understand that they would go out of business - if that... - Who would go out of business? If they would do that? You do it wise and you do it smart Huh? You do it wise and you do it smart You go and grab it and you come back and grab what you need That's... You seem to not really understand how the economy and capitalism - and... - You do it wise and you do it smart All right, well Jordan, it seems like you have a mindset that I would say is very... you should probably change because that's not how… a good way to Well, I don't have my wallet and I'm trying to get my wallet - I understand that... - back in order And I can't get my wallet back in order I, I understand where you're coming from - I do - I got hair in my mouth So do you wanna move the hair out of my mouth? Sure, I'll do that for you No, thank you You're welcome Thank you for moving that too And I'm gonna scoot right here so I'm not sitting in the street Okay, so let's just run this over again one more time So you were inside the store Mm-hmm The... you had somebody else - in the store with you? - My coworker, yeah Okay She comes inside Mm-hmm Just from that point - Tell me what happened - Yeah She comes in, she says... She's kind of mumbling, talking random She's like, "Can I see that grinder?" And my coworker's like, "Well, which one?" And she said some weird name nothing... this name She's like Um, I wanna see that one, that one So she reaches over and shows it to her and she takes it Usually, I hate handing people sh** because of that, but she takes it, and then she's like, "Okay" And she starts walking away So I told her I thought she was gonna go and go to the other side where my coworker was I'm like, oh, she'll get you over there But she starts walking out I'm like, "Hey, you gotta pay for that" Like, she's like, "No, I don't" - Yes, you do - Did you tell her to stop? Yeah, I told her to stop Okay I'm like, stop Like, you have to pay for that She's like, no, I don’t. She just walked out Okay The argument over the unpaid item briefly gave way to a different concern Jordan reported low blood sugar, shifting attention to her capacity to drive home So let me, let me re-explain to you that... First off, the fact that you're blatantly telling us that you committed a crime Because I was gonna come back... Hold on, I'm talking here We... This is a crime scene now Hold on, Jordan, I'm talking You're gonna stop talking You're gonna listen This is a crime scene You don't dictate how this goes We do Okay Do you understand that? You don't tell us how to do our job So then hurry it up And can I go across the street in the shade instead? - You are sitting in the shade - If I have a heart attack, you need to call the fire department over here Okay, do you have any... medical issues that would cause you to have a heart attack? How did I give you a heart attack? Because I don't like you guys Well, I'm sorry you don't like me I think I... I'm a very nice guy You know, I have a lot of friends - I would think people like me - (Unintelligible) get something I have low blood sugar Hey, I'm gonna pull my car over here Do you really have low blood sugar? Or you're just saying that? I really, really do I need to eat something Hey - I need su... I need sugar - She just said that she's got low blood sugar She needs to eat something Like, I'm shaking Okay, yeah, I'm calling for medic Okay Do a blood sugar check My anxiety is going up cuz I need to eat something - I need shade - Suspect’s saying that she has low blood sugar Can we get EMS to come do a blood sugar check? Stand up We'll go stand by my car Help me up Because the shade's over there Okay? Thank you Oh, it's just you Jordan, you can't tell me... that you want me to check your pockets but you wanna... you want a female officer to do it I freaking... I'm getting this in order I need to smoke because y'all are - freaking making me anxious - Smoke what? I have a medical ma******* card and I have my, like I have a medical ma******* card Okay Well, you're not doing that right now You're definitely not gonna do that in our presence Um So But again as I explained to you over there - twice - I need to smoke you do not dictate how this goes Well, thank you for putting me in the shade at least but there's still sun spraying off me I mean, like I said, I'm a nice guy I'm not an a**hole Did you... - Well, you are kind of being one - Renee Did you recently get out of - Circles of Care - Jordan She said I did, and it's so annoying Okay Because I don't like that place It's corrupted as all get-out That place needs to get corrupted... that place is done for I'm getting a lawyer and I’m lawsuiting them Have you been, uh - taking... - Like, I'm literally suing them All get-out - I've been taking all my medicine - Did they prescribed you medication? They took me lithium or rebs… rebsamore or something something else, and something else Are you taking that medication? I am taking it all Okay On a regular basis? - Yes, I am - As... As prescribed? Yes Okay How long have you been on that for? Um, about... Um, it's been about a month-ish Okay Is it helping or is it hindering? No, not at all It's not doing anything for me Okay It doesn't help Which is why I'm getting a lawyer Okay - So I would just... - I’m already getting a lawyer I wouldn't look into a lawyer - Well, they're getting sued - Because Okay, that's fine But what I would say what I would say is I would look for a psychiatrist I don't... I parent the psychiatrist I can't get a psychiatrist because I know how to handle my own emotions Okay But what I'm saying is... But what I'm saying is... What is it there to talk to them about? - What I'm saying is... - everyone belives me anyway Jordan, let him talk I've already told you you don't dictate how this goes so let him talk Okay, let him talk What I was trying to say is you get your own psychiatrist or therapist So that way if they think you were misprescribed something or the medication is not working for you then they can try to tweak it and get get you the right medication There's thousands of medications out there They're not gonna get it right on the first try - Clearly - So that's... So that's what I was saying... So that's what I was saying is Circles of Care might not always know the best medication for you because they don't have the time to just sit down They have so many people going through so they just... kind of give medication as they - think is fit - You can call the paramedics They're on their way They're already on their way - We requested them so - Yeah They can look at my eyeballs What do they need to look at your eyeballs for? - You told us... - (Unintelligible) do anything else You told us you have low blood sugar They can take my low blood sugar And that's what they're gonna do Regardless, Jordan my partner here He's dictating how this goes This is our crime scene that you... You blatantly told us that you committed a crime Doesn't matter if it's a misdemeanor It doesn't matter if it's $2 It doesn't matter if you were planning to come back and pay them later You're telling us... You told us... That... That's not how... That's not how a business works - That's how... - Well then, I'm not coming back and they can have the money still for it - I don't mind I can get the change - But how do they know that? How do they know that? I will come back with a bag of change They can just take for all I did But how do they know that? I'll tell them You can't just take something - and then say I'll pay you later - I understand I won't do that again Okay, but that doesn't change the fact you already did it So this is how things are going Okay? My partner is gonna be the one to say whether or not - you're going to jail - I'm sweating Or you're... Okay, I'm sweating too I'm wearing a lot more than you are Okay, my partner is gonna be the one to say how this goes If he decides... to let you off - and give you... Jordan - You're not sweating hard enough - Please - I... I don't like having to repeat myself So I'm gonna speak like this and if you hear me, you hear me If you don't hear me, that's on you I'm not gonna repeat myself anymore If he decides to let you off with a court date with a court date that would be his decision If he decides that you're going to jail you're going to jail You don't... You had a choice the moment you decided to either take that grinder without paying for it Which is $2, not even I know what it's worth So you're saying that committing a crime is worth $2? Going to jail is worth $2? No, because you can't go to jail for $2 You don't tell us that You can't, not for a misdemeanor not like that I've had a misdemeanor charge before Okay - So... - And I never went to jail for it And it's, uh, not your choice It’s the discretion of the officer who's writing who, who's taking charge of that, uh, situation That's why my partner, it's up to him But here's the thing, Jordan is what I'm trying to get across to you is that the way that businesses work in America you have to pay for something that does not belong to you before you can take it because that means you are paying for... to own that piece of property Until you pay for it, you don't own that piece of property They do - Well, it's already paid for - So it doesn't matter It doesn't matt... No, it's not If you come back with the money That doesn't mean it's paid for That means you're stealing it and then you're gonna come back and pay later - So I really need to get out - I... It seems to me that no matter how many times I say it to you, you don't seem to understand the fact that regardless of what you believe is right or wrong you still committed a crime Hey, do you want me to move? He ca... He can back up - Yeah, okay - Yeah All right So We're here just for a sugar? That's what she's saying What? - Yeah - (Unintelligible) I wanna go home So I can go clean up my mess - We... We're staging at six, right? - It was a pretty big mess - No, (unintelligible) - and I need to go clean up She... So I go make a (unintelligible) She's been in and out of Circle of Care for a while You just recently had a baby too, right? Yeah, she’s two (Radio chatter) Okay And have you had some... Uh postpartum issues? No, not at all I was, I lost my (unintelligible) You and her are not really on speaking terms Well, because we got into an argument because she won't give me back my child No, don't worry about it - Appreciate it - Later, brother It's all good? Yeah, it's all good Okay She won't give me back - my child - See you guys - Have good one - Well, yeah, that's not her of... She's not allowed to just give you back your child It's not something that she can control If she were to give you back your child which they have deemed you not fit to take care of them for the time being I am fit - Okay, that's, that's not what - The only thing that's not fit is that - they... - apartment right now that I need to go clean up Well, that all plays into it, okay? So you shouldn't be down here stealing - when you have a child to try to be - (Unintelligible) - getting back - then I'll go home Nope And I would come back with the money or do the trading I don't know - So it's not a... - I just got it It's not a lease It's, It's yours No, but I'm leasing my apartment that I need to go back to can my mom come and pick me up so I can go do that? - Please - She can't - She... - So can my stepdad come pick me up? He can't So can you guys just follow me home or can you drive me home? No, I can't have you driving - Lithium? - And I take medical ma******* And I really need, I really need my lithium right now Okay - When did you take it? - No, I really need my lithium right now So she says she takes it three times a day Nothing Nobody Okay? Right now I'm gonna place you under arrest Okay? And we're gonna go to jail Cuz I can't be off my medicine We're right here - It's no big deal - Yeah Yeah All right Um, I wanna go home to my mom - I can give Kendall a call, see if - Can we... maybe she does another transport later or but Um, see what she wants me to do You’re good Okay Yeah, if you could just transport her (Unintelligible) Let me just go in the store and get some, uh... See if they have the - cameras… - Can you guys put these in the front? Huh? No If you need to, you can tilt sideways For a moment, Jordan still had another way out. A family pickup could mean a court date instead of a trip to jail, but no one was available You're good, I'll just open the door real quick Jordan, can your mom come get the... Are you okay with your mom getting the - truck if she's willing to do so? - I am but I want my I want my mom to come pick me up Okay, that's not an option - Can my stepdad, can my step... - What was it? Can you guys take me home? No - We're... - Take me to my apartment No, right now the safest spot for you is gonna be in our custody So we are taking you - to the jail - (Unintelligible) Okay Um I'm sorry to have you, have you go through this, but right now - in the condition you're in, you're not safe - So then my stepdad has - and there's no, no other option - to pick me up So we're gonna do that, but you're okay with your mom coming to get the truck? I am okay with her getting the truck - I trust her driving that - Okay All right, sounds good Thank you Okay The investigation had reached the booking stage, but the day wasn't finished Officer Migliara still had a 40-minute ride with Jordan to the county jail I’ll wait for my stepdad I'm sure he's doing s... he's somewhere right now enjoying his Saturday Where is my stepdad? You know, Jordan, let me I'm gonna tell you this right now Even if your stepdad had come out to our crime scene he would have not been able...
