I'm just going to patch you down with the back of my hand. All right. Make sure you don't have any weapons or anything. I'm going to open the door so you can get um air conditioning. Well, not air conditioning, but like you know, not the heater, but just constant air flow. >> And I'm not here clicking this part of my >> I'm just going to read you something. Okay, you just listen. If you want to talk to me after, that's fine. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can be used against you in court. You have the right to talk to a lawyer for advice before we ask you any questions and to have them with you during questioning. If you cannot afford a lawyer, one will be appointed for you before any questioning if you wish. If you decide to answer questions without a lawyer present, you will still have the right to stop answering at any time. You also have the right to stop answering at any time until you talk to a lawyer. Do you understand each of these rights I've explained to you? >> I need a verbal. >> Yes. >> Yes. With these rights in mind, do you wish to speak to me? >> Um, yes. >> Okay. Do you know why we're here? >> No. just asked you that earlier. >> Okay. I know you had said something. You thought it was something to do with Walmart >> on the phone. Okay. Why do you think that? >> Um I don't know. He said something about security camera footage. >> Okay. >> And I remember I was only at Walmart yesterday. So, >> Gotcha. All right. Well, um do you shop at Target often? >> Walmart? >> Walmart? Not Target? >> I do shop at Target. >> Okay. Um, do you remember an incident in October? >> Um, >> okay. Um, >> I don't remember the exact dates that I go. >> Okay, that's fine. Um, so I'm going to be real with you. Okay, so there's security video footage of you um, stealing from Target. Okay. Um, you go to >> October. >> Yeah. tell tell me if it you know if I have it wrong or or what or correct me if I have a if you have a different point of view. Um you go to a selfch checkout. Um you have a separate little barcode scanner. You scan multiple times. It rings up for a dollar and then you take the merchandise pass the scanner and put everything in a bag. And you do that multiple times to multiple items. Um, and then you put it in the cart that has your two kids in it. So, I was just wondering kind of what was going through your head at that point >> in October. >> Yeah. >> Don't remember doing that. >> Okay. You don't remember doing that? No. >> Okay. All right. I mean, it's fine that you don't remember, but it happened. It's on video. Um, that's submitted into our evidence department. Okay. So, that's what you're being arrested for is theft. All right. So, we're going to head down to the Lee County Jail based off of that. Do you have any questions or do you have any comments? >> I do. I >> Okay, go ahead. I'm here. >> I need to call my um boyfriend. Okay. >> I just don't have his number. So, >> Okay. Uh do we get his number? >> The only number it's on my phone. >> Oh, okay. Well, I'm bringing your phone to the jail. Um, once we get to the jail, uh, there's a booking process. So, I have to do some paperwork, right? Once I finish my paperwork, I hand you over to the Lee County, uh, Sheriff's Office deputies intake. They grab you, they get your phones out, uh, the numbers out your phone. Okay? So, that at that point is when you'll get the number for your boyfriend and you'll be able to call him once I transfer custody to for the jail. Okay. >> Okay. And then what after? >> That's up to you and the judge. You have to speak to the judge. >> No. Either I don't know. You might make it in time for first appearance, >> you might not. That's depending on the whole booking process. Okay. But if you do, you might speak to them this morning. If not, you'll speak to them tomorrow morning. >> Tomorrow morning. >> Correct. >> So like what does that mean? >> What do you mean? You'll be held in the jail until you are able to speak to the judge. >> What even? Like But that's what happens when we steal. You know what I mean? >> There might be a second appearance at 11, but I'm not sure. >> Yeah, there might, like I said, only the benefit to you right now is that it's really early and that they haven't even opened yet. So, if we're able to >> How long does it take? >> What? This whole process, me doing the paperwork and stuff and getting you into the jail. Well, since we do have to wait for whoever you called um to come and watch the kids, hopefully it's 7:30 right now. If I can knock out the paperwork and there's no line at the jail, it's probably going to take us what with uh morning traffic 30 minutes to get to the jail. It's downtown Fort Myers, so that's at 8:00, maybe 10:30. Okay. And I like I said, I'll try and do my best. I don't want to be in the jail as much as you >> how much um it was at Target. >> What do you mean? >> Do you know how much? >> It's a it's a misdemeanor charge. So, I would just be careful because there are other cases open. Okay. You didn't just steal from this target on this particular day. You also did it multiple other times. Okay. So, there may be other charges pending. Okay. But right now, me and my I'm investigating a certain case. I have found probable cause to make an arrest for my case. There are other cases right now that are being investigated. I'm just giving you that heads up. >> So, right now, you have a misdemeanor charge with me, but you may have a felony down the road coming. >> Just letting you know. I I >> So, there's other ones open. Like, what does that mean? >> There may be. I I don't know. I'm not saying that you're understanding how there may be I only go to one target. >> Well, that's that's not true, you know, because we have you on security video footage at others. Okay. >> What others? >> I'm not I don't I don't know specifics about other cases. All I know is this case is my case and I like I said, I found probable cause to make an arrest. Okay. >> Do you have any other questions or comments? And will I be able to talk to um my grandma before she goes? >> Yeah, I'll let her talk to you. >> Do you feel comfortable with It's your grandma, you said? >> Yeah. >> Coming here and watching over the kids. >> Yeah.

She pleaded no contest, got probation, had to complete a 20-day work program, and was banned from every Target store in the area. Imagine getting caught because you couldn't stop posting Tik Toks. That's Florida for you. A land of gators, hurricanes, and criminals who just can't resist going viral. Do you think she would have been caught if she didn't post those Tik Toks?
