A shoplifting stop outside a Walmart in Joliet, Illinois turns into a resisting arrest and a claim the officers could not ignore. A woman is caught leaving with clothes she did not pay for. She refuses to give her name and insists she has no warrant, but she does. As she is taken into custody she pulls away and pleads that her baby is alone in a car. Watch how the officers handle it. They warn her repeatedly before using any force, they take the child claim seriously, and they verify it. There was no child at the scene. This is real police body camera footage obtained through a public records request. It contains a distressing arrest, including claims the officers investigated and addressed. Any minors are blurred. Our focus is the facts of the incident and how it was handled under the law, not the individual. Reported charges: retail theft and resisting or obstructing a peace officer, with an active warrant. We add commentary and analysis explaining what is happening and the law behind it. The footage has been edited and condensed for length, and profanity has been muted. The order of events is preserved. We obtain footage like this through public records requests. You can look up any agency and start your own at https://foia.direct. #BodyCam #Police #RetailTheft
