And you said you've been working here since when? >> I might be wrong. Maybe not a month, but I'm not sure the exact date. A couple months though. >> Okay. All right. And so are you the one that like takes the money at the door and do all that kind of stuff? >> Yeah. Or like for um the host, you talk to me to get a section. >> Okay. So like like do you help with like the VIP stuff and the tables and stuff like that? >> Uh not the tables but at the door. Yeah. >> Okay. All right. Um as far as today goes, has anything been different about what you do at work or anything like that? >> Um people have been telling me I could keep my change. That's really the only thing. >> What do you mean? Like if they pay say it's like $40 and they pay with 50, they'll say I can keep the $10. That's the only thing. >> Who's saying that? >> A lot of the customers. >> Okay. So they're saying that you can take the change and everything like that. What is your guys' system with that? >> I'm sure >> sharing tips and that kind of stuff or whatever it may be. Like what how does that operate? >> I'm not sure. I've never talked to anybody about that. >> Okay. Um, so is there any money that you've taken that was supposed to go to the club and not to you? >> Uh, unless you want to count like the tips or anything? >> I'm not talking about tips. I'm talking about the actual money that they hand you. >> No, I put all the money inside the drawer. The drawer should be correct right now. I haven't taken like as far as any extra tips that people tell me, "Oh, I could take or anything." I haven't taken all that. >> Okay. Um, so if the video shows you receiving money from somebody, that's all you received and none of it went in the drawer. >> What do you mean? >> I mean, what I'm saying, there's video of you. Somebody hands you the money for the entry fees or whatever it may be. >> They hand it to you and you don't put you act like you're putting it in the drawer. You don't. And you put it up on your thing and then you fold it and you put it in your pocket. >> I haven't put any money in my pocket. The money that I have in my pocket is my money. But yes, I have that money. >> Okay. So, and then if you said that that's your money and you don't have any other money in your pocket, where's the tip money? >> Another security guard has said he was holding it from me because I know that if I come up here and my drawer is short and they say that I have money on me. I do not have money on me. >> What security guard is that? >> Jeremy. >> Jeremy. Okay. So, Jeremy has all your tent money. >> Mhm. >> Okay. Um, what does he do? >> Security. >> Okay. He's a security officer. >> All right. How much is the entry at the door today? Uh, for guys it's 22. Unless they have a hat it's 25. For girls it is 19. Or if they're under the age of 21 it is, I'm pretty sure 11 or 12. >> Okay. All right. Cuz they're not drinking or anything like that. Okay. So, at no point did you take any of the money that was supposed to be for the beach? >> For yourself? >> Not me personally. Jeremy has it all. >> So that money that was supposed to be for the beach is what Jeremy? >> Yes. >> Okay. And is that the money that you neglected to put into the the drawer? >> Uh, yes. Unless they told me to change anything that they told me to keep or anything or that I did not put in the drawer, Jeremy has it all. Jeremy is the one that collects the money at the end of the night. >> Okay. But what the part that I'm confused about is when I said that there's video of you not putting the money in when somebody handed you the money and you put it on the side and then you fold it up and you put it in your pocket. >> Yes, that is Jeremy's money. So why are you putting on a side not in the thing in the like cash box? >> Because Jeremy is security. So he talks to people, you know, say they're not wearing the correct dress code. Say so he'll tell them, "Hey, give her the money. I'll take it." And they'll let he'll let >> Okay. Okay. All right. All right. What's your phone number? You don't mind? I just put the phone up there cuz we're in an active investigation. Okay, put it down. I don't need you texting other people. >> But yeah, to answer your question, no any I do not have any personal money on me. >> How much money do you have right there? >> Would you like my account? >> Yeah, if you don't mind. I just curious cuz it's a pretty big wallet. 35 >> 35. >> Yeah. Any money that was not put in the register and taken out of the register was all going to Germany. >> Okay. Like I said, we just have to conduct our investigation. So once we're done, we'll figure it all out. Okay. >> Is he like a manager? >> No. Just security guard. >> Just a security guard. Okay. 25 >> and they let somebody that's not a manager transfer money and stuff like that. >> They let somebody that's not like a manager or anything like that separate money and stuff like that. >> No, I'm just curious. So that's just me just having a conversation. >> I don't know. >> The only time I talk to any managers about anything with money is if it's a big deal and I need it broken. >> Gotcha. >> Have you worked at any other bars before this or no? and just be chill. It's too social. >> Okay. Stay right there. Okay. I'll be right back. Okay. So, I'm going to be completely frank. We're talking with her in there. She have she'd be seen taking money from the register, putting it to the side, and putting it into her pocket. Okay. She's saying that she gave you that money. >> Yeah, she did. >> Okay.

Do you have no reason why you were randomly holding some of her money? >> No, she just had to hold it for her cuz she has no pockets. >> She's wearing a vest or a zip-up sweater. >> Well, I don't know, but that's what she told me. She got no pockets. So, I was like, "All right, I'll hold that for you." Straight up like that. >> Did you know where she was getting the money from? >> I didn't ask at all. Like, I didn't ask her. >> Has she texted you since she's been up here? >> No, I don't have her number.

So you didn't know where it was coming from. This is what you've told me, right? So you're going to have to put that down on a statement. Okay. Right. >> How much is that even? 31 cameras and stuff. So if you're lying in any way, I don't see. Okay, I'm just being truthful. I'm not I'm not saying you were lying or anything, but just in case. Okay, just hang tight.

He'll let tell me, hey, this person is good, so I charge them and give him the money >> and give him the money. >> Why is he saying that he doesn't take the money? And why is everybody saying that he has no direct contact with money whatsoever? >> So, yeah, I handle all the money. Yes, I'm the cashier. I He >> But you said that you pass it to him. >> Yeah. >> Why are you passing it to him? He doesn't deal with the money at all. >> He He's not a manager. Only the managers and you deal with the money. >> Yeah, I understand. He's not a manager. However, he tells me who to let in for free so that he can get that money. So, he gets the money. I pass it to him. >> Why didn't you tell me that in the first place? >> That's what I was trying to explain when I was saying that I don't pocket any of that money. He pockets it and he's the one who tells me, "Hey, give me that." >> Okay. So, you are taking it on behalf of him. >> Yes. >> Gotcha. Okay. I think >> that's why I was trying to explain. No, that's I was saying like there's nothing in my pocket. I don't get that. >> Why Why would Why would he do that? What did he tell you? Why? >> No, I never asked. >> So, he just said he wanted extra money or like >> No, he hasn't said anything. It's really just, hey, um, charge them, but they're good. >> Okay. And he takes that money. >> Yeah. That's why he had all the money. >> Cuz I, you got to think, I get off earlier than him. I get off around 1 and then come up here, give them my money, and then I leave. He stays on. >> Gotcha. So he asked you to give him that money instead of >> actually charging them. >> Yeah. >> So he tells you like, "Hey, >> they're good and it'll I know I still got to charge them cuz I got to put it into the system as charging them, but he'll tell me they're good and then he takes that money." >> So how does it even out on the the books at the end of the night? >> It doesn't. He tells me that they're good and I'll take their money like if I'm putting it in the system and I never do anything to smoke. If he tells me that they're good, I don't need to charge them. He just doesn't tell them that they're not being charged. He just tells me that they're not. >> Okay. So, they think they're paying, but in your system, it doesn't show that they're being charged. >> Yeah. So, that's how he gets >> How often does he do this? >> Not very often. >> Um for her, I >> actually haven't worked tonight. Tonight is my first night working at the social. I haven't worked for like the past 4 weeks. >> Okay. >> So, I don't know if you were doing it before that either. >> All right. Do you want to write that stuff down on a statement for us? Um, if it'll help, I don't know. I'm going to read you Miranda, but it's okay. They're constitutionalized. I just got some questions to ask you. Okay. >> You have the right to remain sound.

Do you understand? >> Yes. >> You cannot afford a lawyer not want provided for you before questioning without charge. Do you understand? >> Yes. >> Has anyone threatened you or promising you anything to talk to me? >> No. All right. >> I really hope you start talking. >> What you're saying doesn't make a whole lot of sense. >> What do you mean? >> Like you're shaking, you're nervous, like all this. >> Now I'm nervous because now I realize what just happened. She just asked me that and now I'm in this. I don't even have control of the register. >> I get that. But what she's saying is that you were right. and you wand people and you tell her that they're good to go and then she puts that money aside for you and then you pocket that money. >> If you watch the cameras, you have to pay before you get wanded. >> I'm just telling >> like no law. You have to pay before you get W. I have no touch to the reg. I can't touch that register. I'm security. >> I know. But she What is happening is what it seems like is she's taking that money and then she's passing it off to you. No, she's not >> because she has money in her pocket, too. And that doesn't make a whole lot of sense that she said, "Oh, I don't have pockets." She's wearing a zip-up jacket with a hood. >> She told me, "But I have my look." She's sitting down like it's literally sitting down like this. Just say, "Y I don't have pockets here." And I just held it for like I didn't look at it. Like I said, I didn't even look at it. >> Okay. So, at no point did you know that she was giving you money that was on the side? >> No, I thought that was her money, man. Like, serious, I wouldn't take that money. That's That's dollar bills. Like straight up. It's not worth it. >> Yeah. Just >> like I know what you're saying. It doesn't make sense. But I have no access to money, man. Like seriously, I have no >> Exactly. But that's my thing is are you going through a court to get that money >> because that's how it seems and that's how it appears. >> No, not at all. Like she gave me money. >> She said she didn't have pockets. >> She was sitting down. >> The problem just gave me money. No, she just asked. She said, "Well, can you hold this for me?" Simple. Like literally like that. >> But you know she's working the door. Why is she handing you off constant money, >> man? You're like like it's something I should think about, but when you're working, you're not thinking. I'm just grabbing. Like I literally just want keep it going. Like you said, like it's just a continuous motion. >> Like, >> bro. I'm serious. >> How long have you been doing that job? >> I have like 8 weeks or 7 weeks. >> Okay. Have you done it before? >> Security? >> Yeah. Okay. Have you ever been handed money like that on a constant basis on one night? Constantly? >> No. >> Okay. So, alarm bells, right? >> I I know now because now you're now you're in the spot, right? So, all of a sudden, now you have revelation that maybe that's not right. >> Yeah. >> I know what you're saying. I know what you're saying. >> So, let's not play the game of, hey, oh, I have no idea. If you've been doing this for a minute and then all of a sudden some girl just hand you hand you cash all all night long. Come on, dude. >> Dude, listen. This ain't the first day. Okay. >> I know. All right. >> I understand. >> And you understand that everything's recorded. >> Okay. So, like, let's stop playing the nonsense and play the games, the walk around. All right. Like, >> what's the deal? >> Literally, I was holding that for >> holding it. >> She was going to get Okay, so what conversation? >> Literally, what she said? I have no problem. Just hold this for me. And that's it. But the thing is she's wearing a hoodie. Like you can visibly see it whether she's sitting or not. You can see the hood. It's a big pocket. >> It's not. Like I said, man, I should have thought about it. Like I made I literally just made a mistake not thinking about it. Like I should have literally just been like no. I should have said no. Like you said, like like I said, like how he said that is raising alarms and I didn't. >> So my thing is you have the money when we just got up here, correct? You willingly put it out on the table, whatever, right? Because I didn't know. >> When When was it going to go back to her? >> At the whenever she asked her. >> No, cuz she leaves well before you do. Your security. >> I know, but she leaves at 2 as well. >> She leaves well before you. You don't leave at 2:00. Security does not leave at 2:00. >> Sure. We leave like at 2. Ma'am, we leave like at 2:30. >> This club doesn't even Yeah, the club doesn't leave until 2. She leaves at 2. >> You definitely >> comes at 2:30. >> That's when the dump starts. So, my thing is is when when was this exchange going to happen? >> I was just going to give it back whenever she asked for it. >> Literally, if she would ask me right there, I would have passed it right back. >> I don't know. It's It's one of those things like this officer said, "It's not our first day." And if somebody just randomly handed me cash as we're taking money at the door, >> where where did you think she was getting it from? >> I don't know. Maybe like they said, maybe she let somebody in or something. But again, but you know that's not standard procedure, right? >> That doesn't happen at a door. It doesn't happen anywhere, right? So, you already know in your head that there's something wrong, >> right? Okay. So, you're admitting there's something wrong, but you're going along with it. So, you just admitted that you know something wrong. You're going along with it. >> You're going to stay control real quick just so you can look at this. Yeah, she's so here. What's up in there? So what what she's telling me is happening is he would tell her, "Hey, they're good. They can just go in." So when he would tell her that, then she would put whatever money they gave her aside and she wouldn't ring it up. So the books wouldn't be off, like your guys' tallies and stuff wouldn't be off and it would all add up to like the capacity or whatever it was. and he would then she would give him the money. She didn't tell me that at first and then I went back and told her like, "Hey, he told me this is what you're doing." And she was like, "No, he's the one that telling me, hey, when I put them through, he tells me, hey, this one's good. They're good to just go." And that's her cue to then pull the money aside. There was a handle right there. >> Yeah. Let me see. I'm sorry. I turned off. [clears throat] Sorry. >> Yeah. So, you know, we have a policy that no one gets in Korea on Sundays. Everybody knows that. We preach that every day. Not even our mothers get for free cuz it's free drinks. >> They all know that policy. >> See, when she stand up, he put his hand out. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> Oh, be honest with me. >> Was that the money that was being cashed out separately? >> Yeah, that's whenever I wrote in my statement. whenever it was a big group and then he told me to certain ones to go through. I had to exactly >> but I didn't know how much it actually cost. >> Okay. So that's what that all the scribble and >> stuff like that was. Okay. Um the only thing is is there's no not a tip policy here. >> Are you aware of that? >> No, I wasn't. >> Okay. >> Yeah. I was just told like even whenever I was getting horse, she told me if I take six it's okay. >> Who told you that? >> Mari. >> Morton. >> Mari. Mari. Okay. All right. Let me just count this up. Okay. >> Okay. I'm just going to count this. 20 40 45 50 51 52 53 56 57 58 59 64 291 236 29 312 too. Well, just I don't want to help >> just bring it in there and then we can do you have it written down for me that just like this. You're underrest not mine. That's not mine.
