Faced with overwhelming body cam evidence, Briana accepted a plea deal in October 2025 on charges of aggravated assault on a public servant, harassment of a public servant, and possession of a controlled substance. The judge sentenced her to a staggering 40 years in prison after a full internal investigation. Both officers involved were cleared of wrongdoing and returned to duty. In response to that outofcrol escalation, the viewers have shared some very sharp perspectives. It's so refreshing to see actual justice served. That look of hatred in her eyes after she fired his gun is very telling. Wow. Claims of pregnancy made during a violent resistance do not create a legal shield. Officers must still use only reasonable force, but they are not required to release a combative suspect simply because of an unverified medical claim. Rihanna's 40-year sentence turned a petty Dollar General theft into a legal nightmare. But the next case involves two accompllices, thousands in stolen goods, and a tense chase through a department store. What happens when a couple loads more than $1,000 in unpaid merchandise into a bag at the mall and the man takes off running the moment officers appear? >> All right, running back out the front door. He ain't got so many lights. >> I ain't chasing you all over the camera. I stop. >> Give me your other hand. >> At a mall in Savannah, Georgia, officers responded to an active theft at Dillards.

He ran back up, ran inside the store. So, I ran after him. He ran downstairs. I ran downstairs. He ran back upstairs. And then somebody said, "There you go." >> And he couldn't get out because it's locked on this side. So I chased him back to the front. He tried to go between the registers. I tackled him in a handcuff. More of a shoulder check, but >> I just grabbed him like that and pushed him down. >> Grabbed him and drugged him down. I probably chased him no more. >> Yeah, that's the bag right there. They was putting stuff in that bag. We saw them on the camera. Yeah, >> they was loading up. They was just We saw them downstairs.

We even got him on footage actually putting stuff in the bag, but he tried to give them the benefit of the doubt that they would probably use it as a shopping bag. >> Mhm. >> So, it's like, okay, well, I just go in the area and I just keep eyes on them, keep them on the camera. He had me on the phone the whole time, you know, he's watching them. So, they go to cash register and they take all stuff out, pay for it. Okay, cool. cuz they make it past all points of sale.

Since this was their second theft conviction, both were charged with felony grand theft, fined up to $5,000, sentenced to 2 years of probation, and permanently banned from the mall. In response to that outofcrol escalation, the viewers have shared some very sharp perspective. It must be discouraging for police to work hard and possibly face dangerous people to see them get a fine, probation again, or charges dropped. That was an impressive chase for the old git. The courts have to take accountability for constantly failing the public. It's like aiding in a bedding. Prior shoplifting convictions in the same jurisdiction commonly elevate both the charging decision and the eventual sentence. Permanent trespass from the entire shopping center is a standard civil and criminal consequence that makes any future return an independent trespass offense. If the couple ended up in legal trouble after stealing thousands of dollars in merchandise, the woman in our next case was arrested over just a yogurt and an energy drink. What happens when a woman walks out of a convenience store with an energy drink and yogurt in her hands, then claims a co-orker paid for them while the cameras show otherwise? >> Sorry, I miss your camera on you. Theft. Theft. Theft. That was the first one. >> Show me the camera her stealing cuz I'm going to arrest her for this incident. I >> Here she is with all my stuff in her hand. She's got all of my stuff right here. >> On June 8th, 2023, a Savannah police officer responded to a convenience store for an active theft. The suspect was no stranger. She was a frequent shoplifter well known to the store. [clears throat] >> Sorry, I miss your first one. Show me the camera her stealing cuz I'm going to rest her for this incident. All right. >> Well, here she is with all my stuff in her hand. She's got all my stuff right here. Two times, one in each hand, a white one in the yogurt. And she boom, boom, boom, out the door. She didn't pay for a damn thing. >> Okay, hold on. Hold on a second. Go ahead and uh show that again. There's the yogurt in her hand right here. >> Mhm. >> Then she takes my up time, my drink, >> and she's looking around and pop out the door. >> Never went to the grocery. She came back inside and went and got a cup of ice and paid 62 cents for it. >> I didn't let her see me cuz she knows I was watching her. >> All right. Um, get me a list of all how much all that stuff cost. >> Okay. All of it together from home or just today. >> That's what I got evidence for is that right there. If you got >> If you got stuff from all the other ones, go ahead. But >> I'm arresting her for this. >> Okay. So, I need the price of an uptime, the price of a yogurt. Okay. And um I'll be right back with you, but I'm going to go ahead and put her in. All right, go ahead. Turn around. Put your hands behind back for me. >> What happened? >> Cuz you're on camera stealing. >> No, no, no, >> no, no, no, no, no. There is no >> foot bag. >> The moment she walked out of the store, officers stopped and handcuffed her. Faced with the theft accusation, she immediately denied everything and began putting on a dramatic act. >> What y'all doing? Hold up. >> Hold on. That's not resist forced in cuffs and it will not be comfortable. >> Put your palms together. >> I know, man. It's like you're following me. >> That man brought my stuff. So, how did I steal something? A man brought it. >> You got a receipt for buying. >> I didn't purchase it. Somebody brought it for me. >> Who bought it? >> It was a one of my co-workers. >> Where they at? >> They're gone. That's why we still >> off the good. >> Yeah, we'll be good. >> You already gave Officer B with your information. No, he asked for nothing. I ain't don't have anybody. We can head that way. >> You want me to uh I'm turn and I'll You want me to read her right quick? >> Sure. >> Turn around. >> Oh, okay. I'm just making sure you don't have a earphone in. I'll read you in. >> Can you hear me? >> Yeah. >> Okay. So, >> Mhm. She's claiming that a coworker paid for that stuff. >> Who and where? She didn't wait to bring it up. >> She didn't. But um did anyone else purchase the uptime and the yoga? >> Nope. >> Nobody came from that time. >> Nobody came up here because that guy that she came up here with, she had a cup of ice and he had an episode. That's it. >> Second time. >> That's the second time. Hey, there's a a gentleman that just walked up saying that he wouldn't mind paying for her food and everything. I said, "Hey, you go talk to Officer Bogle in there and the store manager." But >> where is he at? >> He just walked in there. Guy with >> Well, let's go talk to him. She's got quite a list. Say again. >> Okay. Well, I'll be back in there. >> But they want, you know, it just happened in the past and stuff. Yeah. >> Yeah. >> They said to u speak with you, right? I don't know it. I'm not in it, but I just want to do a godly thing. Can I pay for whatever she took and let that be that? >> Well, the thing is, uh, she's got a history here. So, that's between you and the manager. >> Well, I didn't ask her. She said no. So, she said ask you. So, I mean, that's if she says no, she says no. >> All right. I was just trying to do something, godly, man. Oh, I mean, you know, it's it's one of those things where you got to pay. You got to pay. >> Yes, sir. >> There's prices for everything. >> Y'all lady, the manager won't let me do nothing, so do that. >> That's fine. Thank you. >> To verify her story, Officer Vogle went to the security room and reviewed the surveillance footage with the store manager. >> Yeah, she's got multiple reports about you. So, >> I just looked at the registered logs. No uptime or yogurt were purchased. >> That's they on them. They want to put me in my truck. >> April. Hi. >> Hey. >> Uh, Officer Vogle's writing this one up for you. She's going to be arrested um today. Um, you guys already know how to get the copy, right? The top. You have any question? Anything to add? >> No, thank you. >> Okay. She he does she does this all the time. Uh, I have a I mean I have other reports that that I able to file online. >> I mean this is repetitive. I even sent the stuff to see this Savannah. This is one she came in and she stole stuff. But it's kind of vague cuz I had to fill it out myself. >> Oh, the you did the self-port one. >> Yes. >> Okay. >> Because it was just easier to do cuz I could at least have to keep track of it of how until she messed up. And today she messed up. >> So >> same same person for this one. This one is not. And this one is a different one. >> But these these two. >> Yeah. And I've already sent them to her city manager last week. This has been ongoing. This not the first time. >> Getting arrested for it today. Okay. >> Thank you. >> They're saying that someone paid for her stuff. >> Before you came, um, she whispered in the orange shirt lady's ear. >> Yeah. Find that person cuz it ain't in the register lock. >> So, >> yeah. And she's done it. >> Go. on that person, right? >> We can work that out. It's easier for me. But >> okay, >> let's make that happen cuz right now they've already put um two or three reports on her >> for the same thing. So, she said she's called the city of Savannah, told them about it numerous times. She knew the number of the truck. So, yeah, let's figure this out. >> Wow. >> We waiting for the guy to respond. I don't know. more than that. More than that, >> cuz I'm done with all my paperwork. >> Okay. >> I mean, I showed you the video we got. >> Yeah, I know. You showed me one though. >> So, >> it's it's up to every person that goes in the store when they pick up a piece of merchandise to make sure that that item is paid for before they leave the store. >> I And that's on that person. That's the thing. I gave them >> on It's on you. You picked up the item, right? >> And I gave them my stuff for them to take care of >> you. Then you should have ensured that they paid for it. when I came out the door I >> cuz right now you you you putting it on other people when it's it's on you. >> That's just like if you give me something and you go do what you need to do and I come to you and hand it to you. That's like a gift. So basically you don't know if that person brought the gift or they sold the gift but you accepting it right or wrong. So and if you put something in their hand that you want they say they going to take care of it. You give it to them. You leave it to them. >> I'll be right back. I'm going to go check and see if they got a camera for that little spot there. Hey, can you show me this camera? >> Yep. What you want? What part you want to see? >> The the part where she handed it off to somebody else and they acted like they >> she went in the bathroom. Okay. Come on. >> Small amount. >> Mhm. >> You know, monetary amount. So, I want to make sure we got as much evidence as possible so that it don't get dropped. >> You know what I mean? So, see, she's got my yogurt cup right there in her hand >> in her up time. >> She went around the corner into the bathroom. That's when I came out of the office because I went to look. >> Mhm. >> There I went cuz I knew her truck was still out there. I was looking for her. So, I was like, "Okay, she didn't go outside. Where did she go?" She had to go to the bathroom. So, I went around the corner. She ducked into the stall. >> Mhm. >> So, I came back out and said, "I'm just going to wait cuz I talked to him when he came in, asked if he knew who she was." And I stood right here at this corner and waited for her to go out before I called. >> And where was the merchandise machine? >> Let me show you. >> Okay. >> Up time up under her arms. >> Up time yogurt. Not handing it off to nobody. >> Nope. In her hand. And she lied to you. Thank you kindly. >> You're welcome. >> I always trying to get my ducks off. [laughter] >> We appreciate it. >> What's going on? >> Are you the one that she's saying paid for her stuff? >> I paid for it first thing this morning, man. Cuz um >> What did you pay? What' you pay for? >> A cup of ice. >> Okay. Yeah, we got that. The ice was paid for. >> Mhm. >> It's the other two items. >> Well, I don't know about the other type. I wasn't I don't know nothing about that. >> Well, there it is. Y I figured >> Yeah, I figured you didn't cuz the security camera would indicate you weren't there. >> I wasn't there. >> You ain't on the camera when she's stealing. So, >> I appreciate you. Thanks for coming back. >> Yeah. >> Um yeah, you paid for a cup of ice. That's on the record. >> That ain't what she'd be in charge of. >> There's two other things. All >> righty. All right. >> Thank you, sir. I will be taking her to CCDC. Um security camera shows her leaving out the store with two items. She didn't talk to anybody. machine and hand them off like she's saying. And the guy that y'all brought back here that said he paid for his stuff paid for a cup of ice. They were already tracking the cup of ice. That was paid for. But the other two items were not. Oh, >> okay. He did pay for ice. >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> So, there it is. >> Gotcha. All righty. >> She got the hand in the cookie jar. She >> We can do about it. Y'all good? Let's roll. >> All right. Y'all have a good rest. Thank you, sir, for letting me know. >> No problem. It's not open. All righty. Thanks for your emotional support. >> Did the guy talk to you in there? >> Oh, yeah. He bought the cup of ice that we knew was paid for. >> You bought the what? >> The cup of ice. >> Okay. >> And I mean, the security camera follows her the whole way. >> She dips in the bathroom for a while to avoid the manager. And then um once the manager leaves, she comes out the bathroom and leaves with it in her hands. >> Got a um shotless charge in 2014. >> I need five. >> There it is. I need to say something with her. Hey, if you didn't do it, good luck. Um, but if you try to get your CDL, just know that this not going to hold you. Okay. >> Okay. Good luck. >> CDS advantage though. >> Well, you can always work something out. All right. Maybe you can you can bond out. All right. You can have them just put in a sick day for you. Who knows? You know, just depending on how long you you've been with us and what your relationship is with the the employee. I'm missing. >> Thank you. >> Good luck to you. >> Her excuses and attempts to blame others completely fell apart against the clear surveillance footage. A background check revealed a prior theft conviction from 2014. She was then transported to the Chattam County Detention Center, CCDC, and charged with shoplifting. This situation has sparked quite a bit of debate. Let's see how the viewers evaluate the actions of everyone involved. They should ban people as soon as they see itchy behavior. That hurts them worse than getting booked. and immediate arrest if seen again. I can't be a cop because when he went back to ask the cashier if a coworker bought it, I would have missed that step because I would have called her a liar. Taking merchandise past the final point of sale without paying constitutes retail theft for shoplifting, regardless of the dollar amount. Video that continuously tracks a suspect from selection to exit, combined with register logs showing no corresponding purchase, ordinarily supplies clear probable cause. But the suspect in our next case in Florida would pay a price thousands of times greater. What happens when a woman swaps price tags at Target, hides cosmetics in her purse, and it turns out this is at least the 12th time she has been caught? >> How you good? >> A routine shopping trip at Target quickly turned into an arrest when loss prevention spotted a woman secretly switching price tags. Good. Thank you. >> Okay. So, we got some ticket switching um and so >> um she did pay for the one that is with her purse. >> Okay. >> And then um she basically took these tags and put them here and then >> Okay, that makes sense. I can show you as well. >> What's the one thing she paid for? Uh >> this tank top. Tik Tok. Yeah. So, she can keep that. and repeat offender. >> Yes. >> Do you guys have the item after receipts from the other time? >> Probably. Yeah. >> Go ahead. >> Um, also when she was shopping, I did see her select two cosmetics, empty package them. I believe that they're in her purse. Um, like a foundation and like a cream. That's all right. >> Can you stand up for me, man? >> Put your phone down on the table and turn around. >> Put your hands behind your back. Spread your feet for me. Spread your feet for me. >> Spread your feet. Put your palms together like you're praying. >> All right. You can take a seat back over there. All right, ma'am. I'm going to read you something. Okay. It's your constitutional rights. It's important that you understand these. Okay. You have the right to remain silent and anything you say may be used as evidence against you. You have the right to talk to an attorney and have him or her with you now or at any time during questioning. If at any time you wish to stop talking or have an attorney present, all questioning will be stopped at your request. >> Do you understand these rights? >> With these rights in mind, are you willing to talk to me? >> Mhm. Anything else in your bag that you put in here that you should have put in here? >> Not like cosmetic stuff. >> It says something called sunscreen. >> Sunscreen's in there. >> Can I grab it out of here? >> Where is it at? >> In front >> in the center. >> In the center. >> Is that it? Right there. >> This. Anything else? This your first time taking target? >> Yes. >> Sure about that? But apparently it's not. It's first time you been caught. Have you taken from Target in the past? Have you tag swapped in the past? >> Okay. >> What's the point of taking my apologies? >> When questioned by police, the woman insisted this was her first time stealing from Target. >> Echo 222 teletype. >> I saw your purse. You have mine. What are you for? Where do you work? >> Do you work? >> Yes, sir. >> Bravo 214. >> You guys want >> Yeah. Let me know if you have any previous times. >> Almost 700. >> Not 7:30. >> I don't think 750. [laughter] >> Um, but this is the 12th time. Yes, this will do the 12th time. >> She goes to Daytona. >> Can you print out a You have You have every day every date she's taking stuff. >> You print that out. >> Find like a little concealer in her first. >> So, she get through it. I found >> so did you put any concealer in here at all? >> No. >> Did you ditch the concealer you selected somewhere? >> Look at all these stores. >> I forgot the case number. >> Oh, wait. That is it. That is it. That is the elf. >> You got it. >> Yeah, that is it. >> Which one? >> The elf. The pink. >> The pink. Definitely that. So, the one today I thought she had one on the 30th, but I don't I think it was just in my data and I don't think they did research on it. >> 12 1217 >> 1219 1217 1215 121 >> 11:22 112 115 and then 2018 was the last time. But she changed her card so there was a gap. >> Got it. >> The most dramatic part of the arrest was the incredibly high price she would pay with her own property. >> Eight times. You said 150 days. >> 12. Three or more times in 120 days. It's an enhancement on the charge. >> Okay. >> So finish up all the paperwork. >> All right. So you're under arrest. Okay. Here's a revised for shoplifting three or more times within 90 days. Okay. You shoplifted at least five times from this store within that 90day period. So the total is like seven or eight. Do you have a car here? >> She has a gray Audi. >> Gray Audi. Okay. Your $5 Audi is right here. We'll count this. >> So it's in a it's in your parking lot. So it's up to you guys what you guys want to do with it. You want to tow it or whatever. You have any family here? >> Anyone that can pick up your car? >> Anyone that can pick up your car? >> Yeah, my daughter. >> Where is she at? >> Or call 10:15. >> Echo 222. >> Whis whiskey fox draw 105. Uh, >> since you bought this, we'll put us in here, too. Okay. Do you have like a reason for why you take all this stuff or no? >> Do you want to talk to us though or >> usually some people have like an excuse for times >> hard times like financially? >> What kind of hard times you have? I'm sorry. I just messing what? >> Putting this pink form in your purse right here. This is your trespass warning. If you come back to this Target, you will be arrested. Okay. >> The last time you taken from Target, did you use that same car? I have two great cars. >> You have two great cars? >> My car? >> No. No. The car outside? >> Your car? >> Oh, >> is that car? Is that the car you always drive? >> Yes. >> Okay. >> Where are your car keys? >> In my purse. >> In your purse. up here. >> Is it paid off or you have a lease or finance it? >> I finance it. >> Finance it. Okay. >> We're seizing your vehicle. >> Okay. that's going to be going to the sheriff's office impound. And um we'll give you all the necessary paperwork on how to treat the vehicle because the five times you come to the store, you use that car to steal. After three, it makes it the felony and you're using your vehicle to further yourself in a commission of a felony. So under Florida statute and under our policy, you're seizing your vehicle. Okay? But we'll explain all the paperwork and stuff like that formally when we get to the jail. That way you'll have a very clear understanding of what has happened to your vehicle. Okay. >> Can I do that? >> Nope. >> Like I said, if this is your first time stealing and you know you made a mistake, I can work with you. But after 12 times, you know right from wrong and I can't help you. So >> it forces our hand a little bit after the upte. >> So this is every single documentation of her stealing pages 12 packets. >> Her belated tears of regret couldn't change the situation. When officers asked if she was struggling financially and needed help, she could only sob and repeatedly apologize. You want to answer your daughter? Go ahead. >> It might be easier to do a call. >> I cannot. >> Do you want me to call her for you? >> I do. >> You don't? >> Can I? Put on speaker. >> I'm so sorry. >> I have to call you back. >> Okay. What? >> I called you back. >> You call me back? >> Yeah, I will call you back. I'm not home. Y >> you home? >> No, I'm not. I will call you when I get there. >> Okay. I was just going to head to >> Yeah, I know that that's fine. You get that somewhere. So, >> yeah. >> Is that okay? >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, that's fine. >> Okay. >> All right. You ready? We're going to go this way. Let's grab her first. >> I mean, I will walk. >> No, I'm not taking the handcuffs off. >> It's It's a policy we have to follow. Nothing on you? No weapons, narcotics, or anything like that? >> If there's anything on you that the deputy did not find and it goes to the jail, it's a felony. So, >> I can take my shoes. >> I know. I'm just I'm just letting you know that we say this to everybody. Not I'm not accusing you of having anything on you. Let's put our seat belt on. >> All right. I have to reach across you to put your seat belt on. All right. I'm not trying to be rude or anything. Okay. Let me just >> Are you good? >> Do I able to talk to you? >> Can I ask you questions? Yes, ma'am. >> What is next stuff going on after this? After I get to the place where you guys want to take going to take home. >> So, when you get to the jail, you're going to get booked and then after that, they'll either set you a bond or you'll wait till for first appearance in the morning. And then with your vehicle, we're we're seizing your vehicle. >> What does that mean? >> That means we're we're we're towing it and taking it because you used it for multiple times to commit a felony. I can have the form. >> You can have it on >> my form. >> Uh, no. Once it's going to be submitted with your property in jail, like at the jail, and then either you bond out or you get first appearance and they give you like a bond amount that when you b like when you get out of jail, you'll get it back. >> Good. >> I need to talk to my daughter. She's going to be very worried. >> They they um you're going to get a phone call. I I don't think there's any limit on how many phone calls you can make. You're going to be able to call her once you get there. >> But I cannot call from my phone. >> No, you're going to have to call from their phone. >> The suspect was permanently banned from Target, handcuffed, and transported to the county jail for booking while awaiting her first court appearance. What about you? Let's check out the most agreed with comments from the viewers and let us know your thoughts. Someone who does this repeatedly should have the book thrown at them. They increase prices for all of us. There need to be real consequences instead of dropping all the charges and giving them probation. It would have been a good lesson for her if the car was confiscated. When a vehicle is used to travel to and from multiple thefts that collectively constitute a felony. Florida law permits the vehicle to be seized as an instrumentality of the crime. The owner may later petition for its return, but the seizure itself is authorized once the statutory conditions are met. Let's move to the next case. What happens when a woman already banned from Family Dollar walks back in, fills a bag with merchandise, and still acts surprised when officers find her on camera? >> What's up? What's up? What's up? >> Take these off real quick. Take them off. >> Come on. T What's up? Come on, man. >> Number one, they're not coming. Number two, it's just going to be a bad idea for you anyway. >> So, man, I can't smoke a cigarette. We standing right here. >> Huh? No, not smoking a cigarette. >> In Savannah, Georgia, an officer was dispatched to Family Dollar after receiving a report of a familiar woman shoplifting. The suspect had already been permanently banned from the store. Same one. Okay. Where'd she go? >> Okay. Well, she knows she's bad, so All right. >> What's up? >> It's Justin. He dying as hell. You you on duty is a mother. You just have You just want to come. It's Ash Johnson. It's Ash Johnson.

So, we just going to go ahead and start cutting these horns. Not about to play with her. >> Damn, we got that run over. >> Simple. I shot through Kaden first. Uh, I didn't see her.

Okay. >> Okay. I'mma um I'm gathering this stuff up right now. Um obviously it's up to y'all to press charges. Um I mean I get it. A lot of this stuff is um I'm assuming she paid for this stuff. >> Um >> it's all like hygiene and stuff. So Um, if that's okay with y'all, I'll come back and pay for it. Um, for her super soft wearable throw, which is $20, that's like a a little blanket thing. Um, the other stuff I can't really help her with.

But the thing is, like I said, I'm not trying to reward good behavior, but I will pay I I I obviously um on camera, I'll pay for the the super uh wearable throw for her cuz it's cold. And if she gets a bond and gets right back out, she's going to be in the same predicament. You see what I'm saying? Oh, >> oh, well, I mean, yeah. Okay. So, yeah, the throw is $20 and then the gloves 125. I'll pay for those, but the rest of the stuff has to go back though. I'll bring back to y'all. Is that cool? >> Yeah, that's fine. >> Okay. Um, >> you got the drug. >> No, I didn't get the pipe that he uh was talking about. She had >> the back. >> This right here, >> this is her personal bag, but she has Popeyes.

Although the officer's compassionate gesture helped the woman get a warm blanket during the freezing winter, it did not erase the consequences of her actions. She was ultimately transported to the police station and formally charged with two offenses: criminal trespass and shoplifting. Let's take a look at how viewers reacted after watching that breathtaking situation. When a stud goes back to jail and Angels gets their wings. It's bad enough that Savannah, Georgia is haunted by ghosts, now it's haunted by shoplifterss. Repeat violations by banned individuals commonly result in custodial arrest rather than a simple citation, especially when the person is argumentative or has a documented history at the same location. If the first woman stole to stay warm, the next suspect allegedly used her position as a postal supervisor to hide a massive mail theft scheme. What happens when a routine car repossession uncovers a backpack full of other people's checks inside the vehicle of a US Postal Service supervisor? when I say I've got concerns and things I need to look into further, I'll be honest with you, that's where I'm at. >> Okay. >> Um, so it is I do need to go through and we're going to wind up investigating it further. >> Okay. >> Um, it's a thing where items are found in St. Charles County or St. Charles City, but you live in because they seize car or repo the car brought back here, >> right? On Tuesday, October 31st, 2023, in St. Charles, Missouri, a lease Nissan Juke was repossessed by the dealership for a routine reason, overdue insurance payments. But while cleaning out the vehicle, dealership employees unexpectedly discovered an abandoned backpack containing some deeply concerning items. >> 2124 to Revenue 3. She's still in the business. We'll step up this a little more. >> Mind if I use like this little break room area right here for your office? Okay. Trying to find some place a little more. >> Well, just um oddities and curiosities and things of that nature where stuff in the car. What do you do for >> I work for the post office. >> You work for the post office? >> Yeah. >> All right. Um whose gun or whose backpack was it that was in your car with that rifle? Well, technically I'm not sure whose it is cuz I'm not the only one that drove the car. >> Okay. >> I haven't drove the car since today Sunday when I got off work. >> Okay. >> In the house. >> So, the kids typically drive the car and they may have had something driving. >> Um, >> they said something wrong with the >> some stuff in there that kind of piqu my interest. Some oddities and things of that nature. So that's why got to ask it. >> So there was a gun in the car. >> Okay. >> A loaded AR. >> But is it legal? >> It's not stolen. >> Oh, well, >> but I can't give it to you cuz you didn't know about it cuz you already told me that. >> Okay. >> So, but >> but I'm confused what they're doing because I thought the you can have in Missouri. >> You can't. that they found that they found some bottles of prescription stuff which are still trying to I'm still in the beginning part of figuring out what the heck's going on. >> I'm going to leave it at that. >> I'm looking for you to expound upon what it is. I found four bottles of >> I mean I don't have any prescriptions besides for my asthma. That's about it. >> Well, this wouldn't be asthma medicine. >> When questioned by police, Bonita immediately denied any connection to the gun in the stack of checks. >> I don't even >> don't handle the mail or none of that. >> No. No. No. No. >> All right. It's a stack this thick of various people's names on checks. >> Yeah. No, I don't I don't even handle any of that. No, I don't touch any. Okay. >> We're not allowed to touch the mail at all. >> Yeah. They're not touch that. So you understand where now I'm >> that can be verified with my job. Supervisors are not allowed to touch the mail at all and things they need to look into further. I'll be honest with you that's where I'm at. >> Okay. >> Um so it is a duty to go through and we're going to wind up investigating it further. Okay. >> Um it's a thing where items are found in St. Charles County or St. city, but you live in cuz they seized the car or repo the car brought back here, >> right? >> Uh, but you live in what? Florescent. >> No, Norman. >> Oh, you live in Illinois. >> So, yeah. I don't even know if you know what I mean. I I got to figure out where these checks were stolen from. Okay. >> Things like that. >> Okay. >> Cuz there's no way you got 200 different people's names on a check and something's not screwy. I mean, you can verify with my dog. We don't touch. We can't touch them at all. So, >> all right. So, how many different people drive this car? >> Uh, my oldest daughter and sometimes my stepsons may drive it. My friends >> 7303 on >> Hyram. I don't know if that may driver, but I know that I had recently gotten a ticket and had to go to court and the charges and I was just like >> 2123. >> Go ahead. >> The charges that what they were saying happened, he said >> 2123. >> I shouldn't let people drop the car, but it was around the time that I was at work. Here's what I'm >> and what I'm going to tell you is what I'm going to do, right? I'm not necessarily looking for them. I mean, I'm going to put them in my computer and I'm going to do a links analysis and look to see who they're hanging out with. >> Okay. >> I'm trying to figure out who's doing the check stuff. The check stuff is the big for me. Okay. >> What What is it? I'm confused though when you said that it's a stack of checks and what do you mean? What are they doing with the checks? >> Well, that's still what I'm trying to figure out. Oh, okay. >> I >> So, you really don't know. >> I haven't left here yet. >> Okay. >> Okay. So, I haven't had a chance to go start trying to contact the people whose checks they are. >> Okay. >> Find out if there's been any fraudulent checks written based off of those bank accounts. I haven't been able to figure any of this out yet. >> Okay. >> So, all I'm trying to do is get an idea of who >> would have access to this car >> and then I'm going to sit down and do a bunch of work on a computer and do a bunch of talking and looking and try to figure things out from there. So that's why I'm, you know, I'm going to ask you who would drive the car. >> Okay. >> Cuz they're, you know, they've had any police interactions with other people. I can find out who they're hanging out with, things like that. >> Well, my brothers don't hang out like >> Yeah. Well, you know, and or that you know of. >> No, that I know. >> Oh, okay. >> Because my daughter goes to the airport, so I'm >> Oh, so she very sure. Well, she >> and my other daughter does not know how to drive at all. >> Okay. So, she wouldn't be the one driving your car. >> No. So, and that's all I'm asking is the ones that would drive the car. >> Yeah. My baby doesn't know how to drive, but my oldest daughter doesn't even she wouldn't even involve herself around people because of >> her going to the I don't know all of her friends. >> Okay. >> Uh what's your other daughter's name? >> Her name, but she doesn't drive. That's the one that done drive. Yeah. >> So she would know how to drive. >> All right. >> Your stepson that would drive. >> Uh he incarcerated. >> I just found out today. >> When did he get incarcerated? >> All right. Let's take him out of the equation. >> I'm not sure his last name because he'll have he has his mom's last name. >> Okay. >> And then anymore. >> I don't know. >> And like I said, I'll sit there and I'll look around on the computer and any kind of ties that come up. >> Okay. >> Cuz a lot of times, even if she's on a trap, if they get pulled over, >> okay, >> they run it and they'll kind of link to all that a lot of times. >> In stark contrast to Bonita's firm denial, federal prosecutors uncovered a far more troubling reality. Her position as a supervisor gave her access to the flow of mail throughout the postal facility. >> All right, I think I've covered about everything I need to cover with you for right now. >> Okay. >> Uh if I have any more questions, I'll give you a shout. What do you What hours do you work? >> It depends. It's I work 1 to 9:30, but usually it's one to one. >> Okay. >> Depends on how much mail we have to process. >> And what post office are you out of? >> Uh I just got off to the one on market. you want to mark it in the city. Yeah. >> Um just get a ride at any point in a gun. So where we're sitting at right now is Depair has a warranted for you >> for me. >> The city of the West County Mall that area >> 270 and >> uh it's a felony warranted right now. me. >> Yeah. >> What I'm going to tell you. So, here's I had to confirm it, right? So, if they say they're going to drive out here, which they will drive to here, I'm not putting handcuffs on you and I'm not doing any of that. All right. But if they're willing to drive here, then you're going to have to stay with me for a little bit until they get here. >> What they have for me for >> yet, you have to ask the pair about. >> I don't know their investigation. >> It is. I don't either. So anyways, so I you being open and honest with you, okay? So, but that's I'm just waiting right now for them to say yes or no. >> So, how long you been at the post office? >> Eight years. >> Eight years. You liked it? >> Nope. >> Nope. [laughter] >> Like it. >> I [clears throat] couldn't see working at the post office and being >> Well, when I started, I was at the NDC in Hazerwood, but that was fine. And then I went to customer service, but becoming a supervisor is what made me not like it. So, I've been trying to get out of there. So, just like being a supervisor at where I am cuz it's every all three places were different. So, um, >> you know, >> I just never dealt with people that tell you that they're not going to do their job and they want to constantly argue, want to fight you cuz you tell them to do their job. So, yeah, that's not for me. >> Sounds like everyone. >> Yeah, I was [laughter] going to say it sounds Yeah, I've been doing this 21 years and I still don't want to be a supervisor. I'm perfectly content. Just done the detective stuff. That didn't bother me. I've done special task force stuff. That didn't bother me. Had zero desire to be a supervisor. Zero zilch. None. >> Well, I thought it would be better than a supervisor, but >> you know, and they tell you like, "Oh, but you get the pay raise and how much pay raise." >> It's not worth it. You know, >> my sanity and happiness is worth more than that. >> I think the post office may be the worst job ever. Then you did not work at Walmart then. >> Go ahead. >> Confirmed. >> That's clear. Are they in route now? >> 2124. You're mobile. >> Clear. Are they going to meet me on scene here? >> They advise it's active when ready for if any medical problems. Yeah. Any medical issues, right? Cuz we talked about that. >> I have asthma. >> Yeah. Thanks. >> I don't think I have quick. >> It should be all right. >> What's that? >> It should be all right. >> Yeah. I thought they had to come meet us roadside now. >> Well, I mean, I didn't realize it was be. >> Yeah. >> Michael wants to chill out. That's what I'm trying to phone call. >> I don't want to take you to jail. >> No. [clears throat] >> 2124. >> 2124. >> Hold on. Aaron, >> we're going to call the pair. See what they're going to do. Stand by. >> Clear. Aaron, that's why I was calling you. >> Okay. >> All right. >> All right. Let's go. Walk back to my car. All right. >> Well, you see, yeah, there's my car here. Um, >> I don't have anything. >> All right. If you got anything on your pockets or anything like that, >> do me a favor. Lift your jacket and go and turn around 360 for me. >> I'm pretty sure you're not hiding anything that's going to hurt you. >> Okay. >> All right. This next part is going to be a little embarrassing because I do have to put your hand cuz I put you in the car. Put them right back here for you. Okay. Now, when you get in the car, >> if you scoot your knees forward to make a little pocket with the back seat, like, you know what I mean? Between your butt and the back of seat, >> it'll be a little more comfortable. >> It's really uncomfortable for us guys. >> Oh, it's horrible. I can't. As soon as I open that car, you're back. How the hell is anybody fitting something? Yeah, I've looked at I'm like, man, I can sure I'd be able to get in that. >> Will you get the porter's name that uh that found the backpack in the garbage? >> Both suspects pleaded guilty.
