She said something. >> The bank's the one that called us. >> I don't know. I'm just >> I mean, I just know >> who has a business. I'm investing in the business and >> that should be closed. I know she had a transaction with something. >> Gotcha. All right. We'll figure it out, man. You got your license on you? >> Yes, I do. >> I'm not trying to do anything. >> Yeah. No, I got you, man. Nice. Can you run a 28 Sierra Alpha Victor 2918? Also have another 27. >> Huh? >> Yeah, you can call whoever. 053 070632. >> So you said the account belongs to your best friend? >> Yes, sir. >> Is that a business associate too? Yes, sir. >> Okay. So, >> I can verify that too. >> Yeah, man. We'll get it we'll get it figured out, man. >> Like I said, we just got a call from the bank saying that somebody's trying to cash a check or whatever y'all are doing at from an account that's closed. And so, because because that is closed. >> Yeah. Because that because it's closed, they have to call us just to confirm that, hey, it's suspicious activity. We got to make sure nothing crazy is going on. >> Whichever one y'all are trying to work with. >> Whichever account you're trying to work with is a is a closed account. >> Whoever her account >> from here. >> What account are you trying to Are you trying to deposit or withdraw? >> She's trying to cash a check here. She >> through what account? >> My account. >> Well, they're saying that your account is closed. >> I don't know. We just That's just what we're being told. Okay. >> Do you have like a like an app or anything with your account on it? Good. >> So, I work fast and my boss just called me and she's going to call me back and I guess let somebody tell me what to say to you. >> Yeah. We just need some clarification. >> Yeah. So, we're just waiting for her to call me. Hey, I'm waiting for you to call me back. Yeah, it's Um, you don't have to. >> Yeah. She said she's going to um call Rob She pick up. >> Yeah, just give us a few and uh we'll get this thing figured out. Okay. >> As long as everything checks out, man, y'all will be good. But we just got to we got to make sure. Okay. I'll let I'll let you know if we do. Okay. [Laughter] Yes. It may just be that I don't know. >> I don't know. Okay, y'all showed up and I was just going to be >> figured out that Yeah. So, um the manager of the ATM is coming around. She's right on Vinc Road. Um but we had several examples of them trying to do Okay. So basically there several instances of them trying to negotiate a fraudulent check impersonating a completely different person and um >> say that one more time. I'm sorry this was going off in my ear. >> So several instances of them trying to negotiate fraudulent check. Um even another time they were impersonating somebody totally different. Um it's a closed account so we can't do anything >> but is coming around and she can explain everything better to you. >> Apparently this has happened multiple times. One of the times they tried to impersonate somebody completely different. Um, >> yeah, this isn't the first time this has happened. >> Do you know if uh the police were ever called for any of the other incidences? >> Um, I'm not sure. >> Okay. But the check is in here, right? >> Yeah. >> Okay. She was saying that she gave him a couple months ago or something. He said he cash business checks and she get money back or something silly like that. Like why your mother? Where'd you get from to give it to him? >> Yeah. She said her son's up in New York. Uh he gets his allowance from her because she has his bank card up there. Her bank card copy of it up there. He's on him when he's traveling. So it's flagging it when he spends money off of it as whatever confirmation that it's not stolen. She's here. So they're showing up as restricted car. She said she just got that sorted out. So that was unlocked again. So it's good to go like you do overseas. U she was trying to cash out that account that was not locked out. She had some other account. >> Afternoon. I'm the manager of that department that called in um this morning. But I >> think an easy way that we might be able to clear some of this up is if we get consent to search the vehicle in person to see if they have anyone else's credit cards, debit cards, any other checks with anyone's names on it. >> Apparently, according to the manager here, this is an ongoing issue. not just this branch, but the one in Coington. >> Okay. >> Um, basically they like, for instance, they use this with this person's name to try to cash the check. Um, one of the customer in Coington, her wallet is taken, which is how all this started. >> Um, and that this is the first time that the check that's attempted to been cashed has her actual name on it. >> Okay. >> Um, but all the other times it's been this Yeah. somebody else's name. And then he's also been involved with it. Um, but he was able to get away the last, they said get away the last time. I guess that just means they left before the police got there. But they said there is a police report in Cington. So, I don't know as far as how much in their investigations going on. >> Yeah. >> But the check that's currently in there right now has her name on it. >> Um, >> yeah. Kind of where I'm at. >> Yeah. So, we can figure we can ask them. >> Yeah. >> All right. So, let me ask you something. >> How many times, And be honest with me, have y'all like gotten into a habit of like cashing checks in the past few weeks? Cuz we have uh we're being told that this isn't the first time something like this has happened. It's happened in Coington and that y'all are >> Yeah. and that y'all are trying to Well, they're saying that you're involved as well. Like they have there's videos on every like at every bank y'all go to. >> Me this van. >> That's just what I'm being told. I don't know if it's this >> van with her though. >> I work and I work Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. I do my driving. >> So, there's a potential I mean there's a potential way we can clear this up today. And if it's okay with y'all, I would recommend if if it's cool with you for us to search the vehicle and your person for any debit or credit cards that don't belong to y'all, any checks that don't belong to y'all, anything that would be consistent with fraud. >> This is my car. >> Did you hear what I said, though? >> All right. So, a potential way that we could clear this up today, not saying indefinitely, but as far as today goes, if you give us consent, we would search the car and your person for any potential fraudulent activity. So, any credit or debit cards not in your name, any checks not in your name, anything like that. Would that be okay? >> I mean, that's fine. I'm not I'm confused on what's going on, but >> they're claiming that what y'all are doing is trying to cash a fraudulent check is what they're claiming. has to check the project though. >> I'm confused >> cuz he I mean that's some tennis shoes. That's >> I'm confused. >> I'm just tell I'm This is the first that I've ever been involved in this. They're saying that this has happened multiple times >> on my account. >> I'm just tell I'm I am the middle man here. All right. I didn't >> Okay, you can call my rep the Joe Hill. I'm always here at FL. I've been vaping with this bank. Never had no problem with my bank until >> you ever Yeah. >> I don't know nothing. I'm not even here. I don't know nothing about >> Do you have a wallet? >> Huh? What was that giant thing that was in your pocket earlier? >> The giant thing that was in your pocket earlier. >> That wasn't my wallet. >> This is my stuff. >> There was a large item that was in this pocket when I first got out with you. I can even show you my account that I open for myself. >> All right. Nothing else is on your person. >> All right. Go ahead and step on out, my guy. >> I'm just going to pat you down real quick. Make sure you don't have any weapons or anything like that on you. All right. If you just want to step right over there. Yeah, I've never even been in Coverton or any Excuse my c. I just dropped my kids off in Alabama. >> What's this? >> I don't know. >> It's not yours. >> James on your back. You're going to be detained for now. Okay. >> What? >> I know that that's what was in your pocket. Don't even start. All right. >> I mean, that wasn't in my room. >> You good? >> That's That's >> Yeah. Yeah. >> So, I'm in detain. >> You want to be in detain? >> That's cool. >> We'll figure it out, man. >> As far as either way, I'm going to beat you. >> See, look. You're already going down. You're going down a defensive path, man. >> Because you trying to say some cars mine is not mine. >> You can go ahead and do. >> So, why would I not be defensive? >> I got you. That's all right. You don't have to say a word. >> Like I said, you're just detained at this point. You're not under arrest. Okay. >> Okay. >> That's 10:26 one. >> Huh? >> That's the one they have on the camera. >> Okay. All right. Let's go back here to car 166. >> Yeah. I'll get everything for you. Okay. Have a seat for me. >> We'll figure it all out. >> Like I said, you are just detained. You don't have to say a word. I'm not asking you anything. And if I have questions, I'll read you a right and we'll go from there. Okay. 96 to 35. >> Hey, can you hand me hand me those? >> He told me there's a bunch of checks in here, so probably need a yanker out, too. Huh? >> Well, I don't need consent anymore. What I found. >> Yeah. I mean, just >> Oh, tell her to come out through the passenger. 96 42. Can >> you go to chat? They gave us consent to search the vehicle and we found a ton of different debit and credit cards with a bunch of different people's names on it. Um, I don't know if midnight's whenever they get clear if they can come out here, but we might be out here for a while. 3,000. Okay. I'm not so Okay. I hope I gave her $5,000. After I give her the $5,000, she said, "Okay." And within 2 months, we going to break it down. You going to get $5,000 and give you interest. And I said, "Okay, so then today I'm off work. >> Sure. >> I have a schedule. >> You want to keep going? You just stand back there for me. Keep talking to him. >> And so um after that I called her. She said, "Hey, are you in Athens?" I said, "Yeah, I'm in." She said, "Okay, we going to be happy. You can meet your $5,000." She said, I said, "Okay." She said, "Okay." He gave me so I said okay he said okay so he said okay whatever I said okay that's fine I'm not alone. >> Yeah. So, I'm with the police. They just show up. Whatever. But it's I guess they wanted to know if this is my car. I said this is my car. They said that something was wrong with um my account. I know. I just got my account verified today because of somebody in New York. So now I'm standing here. The officer asked him what was something in his pocket and he said he didn't have in his pocket saying that they found accounts or some on his >> cards or credit cards or something like that. And I'm like he said you it's been going on or whatever you think they find out something about. I'm like, I'm not from here. I want you to know cuz I explain to him I know >> I don't know what if he I'm [Laughter] Huh? >> Uh, I haven't found it yet. Where's it at? >> Okay. and see what's going on and I don't know if you >> Where'd you meet him at? >> I met him. >> Did you already explain it to him? >> Yeah. >> Okay. Then I don't really >> I met Okay. Where I met him? Yeah. >> I met him over there. Do >> you know if she's been involved too or is it mainly him? >> No. The last time we caught in the cover, she was not the one in the car. >> But you know for a fact that he was in the car. >> Absolutely. Definitely. Yeah. He was able to get away the last time. >> Well, this was in his pocket, which is a bunch of different people's credit and debit cards. And the same within his wallet. >> Oh my god. >> Um, >> can I take a picture of that? >> Uh, we'll take care of that. All right. As mentioned previously, because you're in handcuffs, I got to read you this before I ask you anything. Okay. All right. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can, and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to have an attorney. If you can't afford one, one will be appointed to you by the court. If you can't at any time, decide not to answer any questions or make any statements. Okay? >> You understand those rights? All right. Understanding those rights. >> I got some questions. Are you willing to talk to me? >> Yes. >> All right, man. So, clearly, I know that this is not you. >> I already know that. >> All right. >> That's why I'm just telling you the truth. >> So, let's start. Let's start from the beginning. Let's act like none of this happened. You didn't lie or anything. Tell me what's going on. I mean, I have a newborn baby on the way. So, that check that that's really my real friend's check that new shoes and but I didn't know the account. So, I wrote her a check trying to get some money. She agreed that she wanted to get some money, so that's what I did. >> Okay. Why'd you give me a fake like where did you print this off yourself? >> Somebody else did. >> Interesting. Why' you give that to me instead of your real ID? >> Cuz I'm on probation. >> Yeah. You know, you got a bunch of warrants, right? >> Okay. >> So, what's what Yeah. What's the deal with all these credit and debit cards with other people's names on it? All right. >> Half of them are the ones that the girls I used to talk to, but as far as um you know, the other ones, they're just accounts that I had open >> and a bunch of different people's names. >> No, the girls who I was talking to at the time or people who I was staying with and they let me get my check sent to them. >> So, if we had contact with these people, would they be like, "Oh, yeah, he's got my cards. That's okay." Or would they be like, "No, he's not supposed to have any." I tell you that half of them don't even work. I just have the guard. >> All right. Well, let me tell you. At a minimum, you're going to jail on your warrants. >> Okay. >> Anything further, I don't know. I can't tell you one way or the other cuz I'm not even going to >> probation one. >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, you got the probation here in Clark and you got some in like two other counties. >> Morgan County. >> So, you'll you'll bounce around for the time being. Um >> I'll get uh I'll get somebody here so that way they can go and take you to the jail. That way you're not stuck here. And then uh >> do I have a new charge for you? >> We got to do some more digging and then we'll pass it off to our investigators cuz >> right now I'm going for probation >> at a minimum. Yeah. If anything else changes, you will be informed. So you won't be like blindsided when you're trying to leave and they're like, "Oh no, you got all these other charges." So you'll be informed if anything else comes about this. Okay. You >> write my um my girlfriend number down for me. >> Yeah. We'll take care of all that in a minute. All right. You want to have it back up and check the driver side? >> Yeah. >> I'll do it. You have the key. >> I don't know. Is it okay for me to move? >> Where's the Where's the key at? >> Okay. >> The little leopard thing. >> The leopard thing there. Let me see if I have Yeah, because my key just I've been going. >> Yeah. >> My key um by a vehicle. He doesn't know specifically which one. >> Yeah. I don't know. >> All right. I'll tell you what. Uh our detective that works some of these cases would like to talk to you more cuz he's going to be the one that really takes the bulk of this case. >> Okay. >> So, he would like to speak with you as far as what you know. Basically, you would tell him what you told him and anything else that you that you think would be relevant to where if you are completely innocent, then you speak your case to this detective and let them know, hey, this is the whole truth. Nothing but truth. I'm not hiding anything. >> You stand up for me. Nothing in the situation. This man made me believe him. >> I understand. But it's not changing anything right now. Okay. This part is going to go through. >> Said he out of business, >> like I said, >> and I'm I don't know. >> Okay. >> I don't want to say nothing and I don't know if he's going to harm me for saying the truth or what, but that's why cuz he was there. I didn't want to say. >> So that that's fine. None of what you can say right now is going to change us going to county right now. Okay. That's happening. So I need you to stand up. The sooner we get you in, the sooner you can get bonded out. >> Can I talk to him, please, so he can understand? >> You need to stand up and put your hands behind your back. We're going >> But can I at least let somebody know about my kids? >> We They will let you have a phone call at county. Okay. But listen, >> let's get you. >> Let's get We're going to get you processed and they'll let you get a phone call. >> I know they're processed, but it's going to be a while. My kids are left. >> Who's who's taking care of them? >> Somebody there with them. Foolish. Somebody's there with him. Okay, let's put your hands behind your back. >> Can I text him? >> No, we're going to leave this here. I'm going to get off. >> The other officer let me do it. Why can't you just >> Because the sooner you get in, the sooner we can get you bonded out and do whatever you need to do. >> The bond. >> I don't know. That'll be up to the judge when you see them and all that kind of good stuff. Okay. Gbody back. >> I don't know. Why would he say that? You need to tell the truth. Well, like I said, it's something that is a charge is not a conviction. >> Yeah, but still, >> you need to tell them the truth. Like, don't do that because then that's going to look crazy on my application. >> Yeah, I understand. >> This way. We'll go right out the door we went in. My car is the last one on the left. >> Is there anything in your pockets that we had already taken out? >> No. >> Anything on your person that you don't want the jailers to find when we get there? >> No, I don't have nothing. >> Okay. >> I just I thought he was legit. >> I understand. >> That's what he showed me. That's what you told. >> All right, dude. Stand right here for me. I got a patch of nail. Put your leg right here. Everything's out of your pocket. You said nothing sharp, nothing pokey, nothing needless otherwise. Okay. And nothing that is going to be in your shoes or underwear or bra or anything else the gel is going to find. Okay. If we find it here, it's fine. If we find it there, that's more of an issue. That's why I say you can face this way for me. You wrote a check that >> Sure. >> So, how was that? [Music] Easiest way is to face me and sit back. And like I said, you just scoot straight back and get your feet on the seat if you need to. You don't have to put them in the in the spot because I know it's difficult. [Music] [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] What do you need to do about the car? about the car. Uh so all this it'll be in your possession here at the jail. So when he come gets you out, it's something he can get out with it. Um >> the car >> parked over there. Yeah. I'm going to find out if it's something that's going to be towed or if it could be left there. I don't think the bank's open on Saturday, so it may not be an issue being parked there. Um but that'll be a phone call you want to talk to him about, though. >> Oh my. What does that mean? I don't want nothing to do with this person. It's people on looking. I don't know. >> Right. >> No. So, this is a charge. So, it's not it's an accusation. It's not the guilty verdict. It's not saying you're going to have a record. It's nothing like that. This is just probable cause based on evidence to say you are likely a participant in >> He told me he showed me in the text message. This is my business. I'll write you a check right now. Again, it's probable cause. It's not a conviction. So, that's where you could go to court with your lawyer and say, "Hey, here's other facts and circumstances that say otherwise it's my belief that I'm being charged with this." Okay? It's just an accusation. It's not on your record. It's not anything else. It's just this is the process we got to go through now that we've got that charge. Okay? So, once you get through the charge, deputies will let you make a phone call. Huh. Okay. Well, that's all going to be in people's reports. what you said is going to be part of the reports that go into the system for it. Um, and all >> but I don't want him to blame me cuz I asked and I said >> and he said, "Yeah, we go to shop." >> I Yeah, he has enough charges on him to worry about himself. >> People do stuff this. I just know that him and Ella had some dudes before she dealt with her. >> He was like, "Oh, you know, so I believed it >> because if it wasn't legit, why would I go to my man? I thought he was legit. >> They should be upset with himself. He got me in this. >> He looking at me like I did it. Did what you ask me? True. Are there any phone numbers you need to get out of your phone? >> Mhm. >> Okay. So, let them know. They'll probably ask, but if they don't, you can remind them, "Hey, there's phone numbers I need to get out my phone. Please. She's want to know about her van parked over at the bank. >> Uh it >> I would like to leave and let them deal with it if they're going to do anything with it. So we're glad to let it stay there. It's not in the lane, so it's not an issue for any tailor services on Saturday. They're not open to the main lobby on Saturday. So if they call about it and have it towed themselves, that'd be on them. Um, but we're not going to tow her anything. So, husband get you bonded out, all that kind of stuff. You can get your car and go over there and get it out before they get any issues with it. Should be >> usually the ones with the nice cars and the flashy money. It's like I don't know why it gave me desperation. He was there right there. I don't want I don't want him say anything. He had a picture of me. He I love dogs.
