May 22nd, 2021. A man followed a 10-year-old girl through multiple aisles in Walmart and touched her inappropriately in an Alaska, Wisconsin. The man was later identified as 30-year-old Josie Aman. The girl immediately told her mother about what happened, who then confronted Josie. When she accused him, he reportedly fled the store and left the parking. Let that sink in. This isn't just shoplifting or disorderly conduct. This is a grown man praying on a child in public in broad daylight inside a Walmart. The level of boldness here is chilling almost like he thought he could get away with it. >> Lot in a pickup truck. According to the report, the mother didn't witness the assault. >> This and a few other >> cases come down there. >> No, I I said, "Hey, when are you available?" He's like, "H pretty busy. I'm not available till 6:00 today and pretty busy all weekend." And I'm like, "Oh, tell me when you're available." He's like, "Oh, Monday after 2." But I'm like, "Where do you work?" Just so I can make a note of it. He's like, "Uh, no day, guys." Surveillance video showed the mother chasing Josie, but there was no monitoring in the aisle where the assault allegedly occurred. A few days later, police reviewed the video and observed Josie go into the Subway store inside of Walmart. >> Is it just you today or you got help? >> Uh, it's just me for the moment. >> Okay. Um, does the name Josie ring a bell? >> Yeah. >> Is he here? >> And here's a critical point. No cameras in the aisle means no direct video evidence of the actual assault. Prosecutors will have to lean heavily on the child's testimony and circumstantial evidence like surveillance footage outside the aisle. In cases like this, the defense will almost always argue reasonable doubt. >> Okay. >> I got to talk to him. Subway staff provided a receipt of the transaction, but it did not have the name for the card used. >> The Analaska police had a subpoena for records served on Subway to request the video debit card information. The records received under the subpoena implicated Josie. 5 months later, police confronted Josie at his place of employment. >> Hey, Josie. Officer Flattton, this was a little bit more uh urgent for me, so I decided to just come down and talk to you here. Um, I need to talk to you about an incident where you're my suspect. Okay.
