Grab on some leg. Set yourself down. >> Back up, please. >> Hey, can you guys um tell me something? >> Do I got Hey, can you put your [music] uh >> He believed his family had hidden him well, but police already knew where to find him. On July 16th, 2025, deputies responded to a home where they believed a wanted man was hiding. But after arriving, they quickly realized arresting him wouldn't be as simple as they expected. >> Hello. Officer over at D City. >> We're uh we need to speak to Willie. >> He's supposed to be turning his stuff in. >> We've been hearing that for the past two and a half weeks. >> He talked to the bells bombing. She said, >> "Is he is he home?" >> Huh? >> Is he home? >> I don't know. >> Can you >> It's only my mom and my son in there. >> I understand that. >> But >> when you were inside, is he there? Listen, he she talked to him. He said that he would tell uh turn himself in at Hernando >> because she said if y'all get in contact with him, y'all going to take 30 days for y'all to ship him to uh Hernando. >> Well, no, that's not that's not that's not exactly true. So, what would happen is we bring him in. He would go to Land of Lakes. Hernando would go out there to pick him up and then >> well she told him to turn him in at Hernando >> and I understand that but that's been going on for 3 weeks and he's not turned that they're going to take him to Hernando so >> I just don't want to see anybody else get in trouble for holding him here because you and mom is aware of what's going on. >> Oh yeah. >> So I just want you to understand there there's a chance that people could get in trouble if you're harboring somebody that has a war. Last time, one of your officers came here. We told him he can search the house, but he pulled a gun out and our kids was here. They're not prone to this. >> Okay. Is there any kids home now? >> Yes, my older son. >> Okay. Can we get him out of the house? >> And are you are you able to let us like check the house now so that just so we can kind of cross it off and say, "Hey, he's not here." so we don't have to keep coming here and having these conversations because I don't want to be pointing guns at anybody that we don't need to point guns at, right? And I understand your concerns for that, but I also do want to do my job and kind of check off the box and say, "Hey, we checked. He's not here. Sorry." Like, >> my mom said, "Do y'all have a warrant to search?" >> No, we don't have a warrant to search. All I'm trying to do is check off the box so that we don't have to keep coming here and and hounding you guys about his whereabouts. cuz I don't want to keep we don't want to keep coming back every couple days to make sure he's not here. So, at least now if we check everything's good, we can kind of get out of here and move along. Can I Can I speak to mom? I haven't got the opportunity to and I would like to. >> Okay. What's her name? Hey, mom. I just haven't I I personally haven't had the opportunity to speak to her and I would like, you know, just to talk it out with her. >> The city I don't know city >> the city I think. >> Yeah, I'm I'm with D City Police Department. >> You say city police? >> Yes, ma'am. >> Are you Are you Mom? >> What's the deal? >> So, I know other officers came here to speak to you. I haven't had the opportunity to speak to you. So So here's the deal. Willie put you on speaker. >> Okay. >> This my >> and I'm not trying to leave anybody in the dark and and so you I want you guys to be fully aware of what's going on. Okay. So So Willie has a warrant, okay? out of Fernando County >> because we >> So my thing is I don't want to see anybody else get in trouble. >> Okay. Because you guys being aware of the situation and harboring somebody that has >> because the just text us. >> I understand that. So let me explain myself. I don't want to see anybody else get in trouble. Okay? I want him to just own up to what's going on. Let's get it taken care of so we don't have to keep coming here cuz I know it's a pain about us coming here every couple days to speak to you. I understand the situation about clearing the house and the guns were out or whatever like that and you guys didn't feel safe. >> They just pull the guns out. >> So, and I and I understand your guys' concerns. Correct. And I understand your guys's concerns. Trust me, I get it. I'm right there with you. >> So, where I'm going with is I don't want to see you get in trouble. I don't want to see anybody else get in trouble besides the person who has the warrants. Right. >> And even then, I don't even want to see him get in trouble. I just want him to take care of it and let's move on from it. Let's get it taken care of so he ain't got to look over his shoulder. Okay? because you guys having the ability and and being aware of of what's going on with him, you guys can also be held liable for it, too. Because now you guys, if he's living here, you're hiding him from us, which I'm not saying is going on. There there could be consequences for that because you're aware that he's got a warrant. If you're hiding him, there could be consequences that you can face for harboring somebody basically hiding somebody that has warrants and that we're actively looking for. >> Yeah, I understand. >> Okay. And I don't want to see anybody else get in trouble. >> Okay. So that's why I wanted to speak to you cuz I don't want to see you get in trouble. I don't want to see her get in trouble. I don't want to see anybody else get in trouble. >> Okay. But I'm going to ask you one time >> if he is here to let me know. >> No. Can you wait till my daughter get here? Cuz she always >> So listen, I've been doing this for a while. So is he? >> Yeah. >> I know he's here. >> I remember him. >> I know he's here. >> I don't want to see anybody else get in trouble. Okay. >> I've seen you a couple times. >> I understand. So listen, I'm not worried about the bills. Correct. But that's been going on for weeks. So again, I don't want to see you get in trouble. I've been doing it for a while. >> I know Mr. Willie is here. Okay. I know he is. And I understand being scared and wanting to turn yourself in. I get that cuz I don't think I would be able to do it either cuz nobody wants to be like, "Hey, I messed up. Let me turn myself in." It's a very hard thing to do. >> I know he's here. I just want to handle this the appropriate way in the correct way and the safe way. So these these are different guys cuz he knew about what the guy had did with the gun. Pull the gun out and the kids was here. So these are these are two different guys. >> So mom, >> hold on. >> So mom, the reason why I know he's here is because I talk to a lot of people out here >> and people talk to me and I know these people are not lying to me. I've had several people, not just one, several people tell me he's inside right now. Okay. I've had several people tell me he is so come in. Okay. >> Do you own the house? >> Yeah, but see I'm disabled. >> Okay. But are you >> I had a stroke and stuff. >> So she usually doing this. >> Okay. >> That >> Okay. But you you as the homeowner can give me and other officers permission to just check the residence. >> So why I'm here and I'm not pulling out of the air. I've had several people within the last hour tell me that he's here. So, it's not me just assuming >> nothing but riding by. And I don't see why she keeps riding by and taking pictures. >> But it's not just one person. I've had several over over three people tell me that he's here currently. So, this is why I'm here and this is why we're checking now because I've had several people tell me he's currently here. And I don't want to go in there and start pulling people out and doing this tasing. I don't want to do any of that. I'd rather him just come out with his hands up, back up to me. Let's Let's get it taken care of. >> I don't want to see you get in trouble. wants to see her get in trouble. And I understand this is an emotional tough time. As a mom, as a parent, I understand that. >> Mom, mom, mom, mom, mom, listen. Mom, breathe. Breathe. Mom going to get a rag. >> She can go. If does she have any medical things? She has bad bad anxiety. >> Okay. >> It's to the point that she faints. >> She wants to go. >> Does she need medical attention? Do you need an ambulance? >> Mom, she has feels that >> Okay. >> It's an anxiety. >> How you doing? Okay. >> Hi. Can I speak to you real quick? I'm officer Del with D City. >> Hi. >> Okay. So, what I'm trying to explain to them >> and I don't want to keep we don't want to keep coming back every two days to see if he's here. Okay. So, listen. I've been doing it for a while. I have a lot of people that talk to me >> out here on the streets. I know that he's inside. Okay. I know within the last hour he's been here. And I just been told by not one person, not two people, several people that he's inside. I don't want to have to go in and grab. >> That's that's the mama and and the girl in the >> So, she wanted me to ask you if it's okay if we check. >> My thing is is if he is here and you know that he's here, if he just wants to come out and and and do this the easy way, that's what I want. I don't want to have to go in there and clear the residence. I don't want to have to go out and search closets and pull him out of a closet or a room or underneath the bed or wherever he may be at. I don't want to have to do it that way. Preferably, I just want him to go you, mom or whoever goes in there, be like, "Hey, come on out." He owns up to it, puts his hands behind his back. I'll gently put the cuffs on and take him out. >> Yeah. His um >> cuz I don't want to handle it a different way. >> His um damn what is it? His >> not the public defender. Um >> his bail bond told him >> to turn himself in. >> Yeah. And stuff like that. But it's been it's been weeks. >> I know. >> So we're out here because he's in our jurisdiction. We can't make a grown person do it. They don't want to. >> Okay. Can you do me a favor and can you go try to talk to him? >> Cuz I know he's here. I'm not guessing. I'm not just assuming he's here. I know he's here. I've had several people tell me within the last 30 minutes to an hour that he's here. Seen him inside. Seen him here. Stuff like that. So, it's not me just assuming he's here. I know he's here. And I I preferably just want him to own up to it >> because I don't want to have to keep coming back here two, three times a day or two, three times a week. And you're and the mom here doesn't need to be going through this. Okay. >> So So I got to go. I got to go get my dad. >> Okay. Um >> so I don't know who he's more comfortable with. Mom or you or whoever. But if you want to go in there and just talk to him. Like I said, I know he's in there. I prefer one of you all go in there and just talk to him. >> Um I don't know. I' I've been I haven't been home. Okay. But um so if he gets arrested over here, how long would he have to wait to be transported? >> So basically he'd get booked in over to Pasco County. Hernando would send somebody out to come pick him up and then they would handle it through them. >> So how long would that >> we can't give you a definite time frame >> cuz that's the I guess that was his bell buns was the biggest thing why she didn't want it. >> Better for him to go to Hernando and do it. But it's I mean the delay is not that long. It's usually only like a few days. Yeah, they have >> it's not going to be 30 days. >> Yeah, that's what she said. You know, 30 days. >> So, the quicker he gets in, quicker he gets processed is the quicker Hernando can send somebody out to pick him up. But the more he keeps hiding and and and not turning himself in cuz I understand. Yes. Ideally, he he it would be best for him to go to Hernando turn himself in. But I can tell you right now, I've been doing it for a while, that ain't going to happen. If he hasn't done it yet, he ain't going to do it now. And that's the truth, right? And I get it. And I always explain to them, I don't even know if I would do it if I had a warrant. I don't think I would just be like, "Hey, I'm here." You know, but I just want to handle this in the most safest way possible, in the most calm way possible. I don't want to do anything in front of mom. I don't want to do anything in front of kids and family. I just want something explain cuz when the other police officers came and that's for safety reason, >> he was not here. No, no lie. He wasn't here the last time. You know what I mean? We were letting them in and then when they pulled the guns, you know, kids and I kids are in here. Can can y'all please put the guns away? And then they got they got all like hostile and stuff. Well, it doesn't matter. >> And that's why I wanted everybody out of the house. The only person I want in there. >> Oh, and then it's him. And then it's another one. >> So, now that everybody's out of the house, what was your first name? I'm sorry. >> I'm Chanel. >> Chanel. I'm Officer Delberty. Do you mind going in there and trying to talk to them and I can follow along? >> I just don't want to I don't want to do this a certain I want to do it the safest and the most calmst way possible, the most professional way possible. >> So, don't have to keep filming that. I go through two. >> We're going to be checking the res. >> Light me up. >> Huh? >> Is that girlfriend or? No, that's our friend. >> That's our friend. So, again, if you want to just make an announcement and say that we're here >> because I don't want to handle this a different way. I really don't. >> The safest way and the easiest way. Let it let's get it taken care of so that we don't have to keep coming back to this house every couple days and and bothering you, bothering mom. She doesn't need to go through this. I understand, >> you know, and I'm not trying to go extensive in in front of her. I ain't trying to do any of that. But we also can't keep hiding him because there is some liability that comes along with that. I don't want to see mom get in trouble. you get in trouble for hiding somebody with a warrant. It's called harboring a fugitive. Okay? And I don't want to have to go that route. >> Mr. Haynes, State City, please. I don't know. I just got, >> like I said, I know he's here. >> I know, but I just got here. So, >> Mr. Haynes, the date city police department. I need you to come out with your hands up. Let's take care of this, sir. >> Mom doesn't need to go through this. I got nothing on my side here. >> Come on out, man. We got you now. Come on. >> Come on out. >> Climb out from under there >> and let me see your hands the entire time. >> Come on. Climb down. >> Get out. >> We're cool. >> Grab me down. >> I'm not going to grab you now. You got up there. You can get down. >> All right. I'm going to get down. >> All right. >> Listen.

You're just gonna come down. All right. You need You need help down. >> I got you, man. Grab onto the ledge. Slow yourself down. >> Back up for me. >> Hey, can you guys um tell me something? >> Do I got Can you put your uh >> Oh, >> here. Grab my hand. >> You got it. Be careful.
