On the ground. On the ground. On the ground. Turn around. Turn around. [music] >> Down. Down. Down. >> Car. >> So, uh, more than likely tonight, it looks like you guys are going to take a ride to jail. >> What are you doing? I didn't do nothing. I didn't do nothing. When a theft case involves two or more suspects, there is usually a carefully planned and organized scheme behind it, even [music] the excuses after they get caught. But this time, the officers managed to make their entire story fall apart. Here are the times when Walmart shoplifter duo thinks they're entitled to steal. [music] Let's start gently with this couple. >> Stay right here. Stay right here. Don't move. Go to the wall right there. Go to the wall right here. >> Is it Is it hard for you to get jobs and stuff or what's Honestly, >> kind of. I do have a job. >> On the 28th of November, 2025, police stopped a couple as they were attempting to leave Walmart after suspecting them of trying to return merchandise for cash by using fraudulent receipts and items taken from inside the store. This is what happened. >> Stay right here. >> Stay right here. Don't move. Go to the wall right there. Go to the wall right here. Nice. Two. They're both detained. We'll relocate to the LP office again. Let me just uh double lock them. >> Take a seat and we'll we'll explain everything to you. >> Hold on. Let me lock these. Hold on. You >> have anything in your pocket going to poke or stick me? >> No. >> Okay. I'm going to put all your stuff right here. You understand? Stand up. You're good. >> I've got a wrap if you need it. Do >> you have any ID? >> So, all those receipts are coming out. >> These are all coming out of your pockets. >> You have a Florida ID card? >> Driver's license? >> Yes. >> So, if I pulled you up here, I'd find you, right? >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. But you don't have any ID on you whatsoever? No, sir. >> You're not You're going to give us your name? Yes, sir. >> Your real name? Yes, sir. We're going to explain everything to you. Okay. Just make sure I got everything out of this. >> It's just change in there. And then this is a vape. >> Yeah. >> I'm going to put the cash back in your pocket for now. >> Can I sit down? >> Both of them appeared calm about what was happening as if they understood the situation. Meanwhile, the loss prevention department provided officers with the findings from their investigation into the suspects. >> Um, last week was the same or two weeks ago whenever he has it. So, he has it all here. It's I think it's just for the female. So >> I just don't understand. >> Nice. Two. Take two names. Date of birth. >> No. >> Okay. So what was the total loss that day? >> The total loss I didn't put. This is the pampus and the mysterian only. I just have to go find the bed and put it in. It'll be 100. >> But nothing on the mail, right? >> The mail. No, he helped with the stuff in the car. That's fine. >> The stuff in the car today or there? >> Today. Today. >> Okay. What? What card? I didn't see a car. >> They didn't have a car. >> These guys that came in. >> All right. So, I'm going to sync this up and then I'm going to go back. >> In the car. >> Okay. So, she paid for all that stuff. No, she those are all cash returns. >> She picked them up and got and with with receipts she found, she returned and got cash. >> So, she finds she goes inside, goes inside, grabs stuff off the shelf, and returns >> and returns it for cash. >> Okay. Immediately afterward, the officer directly questioned both suspects, giving them a chance to admit to their actions. The question was whether they would take that opportunity or not. >> So, can you run through like what what's going on? Like >> right now, it's I'm kind of homeless, you know? >> Is it is it hard for you to get jobs and stuff or what's >> honestly >> kind of I do have a job, but it's not really like >> Okay. >> like a It's like a private company job. You're not really giving me shifts and I have to fend for myself to eat. >> Okay. And I've signed up for homeless shelters and >> nothing's worked out. >> Nothing has worked out. >> And you guys are married? >> No. >> Boyfriend, girlfriend? >> Yeah. >> Okay. And you guys are living in your car situation right now. Is that where it's at? Yeah. >> Okay. And um the car's here in in Walmart. >> Yeah. >> Um so today you you you came here. Do you find receipts on the floor? What's what's going on with this? >> No, it's receipts that we've had already. We purchased stuff. >> Something you purchased from the past. >> Yeah. >> Okay. And then you come in here and you go find the whatever it is that was on the receipt and you go make a return to get cash >> basically. >> But let me ask you a question. If that's the case and you guys are doing it to help out, you know, you >> you guys don't get any more like food or anything in here. You guys just take the cash and that's what >> No, we do buy food. Like we buy food out. >> Well, I'm saying like we get groceries, too. >> Just not here. >> I got you. Okay. >> They honestly explained everything and admitted to their actions. So the officers then shared their assessment of the situation with them. >> So uh more than likely tonight it looks like you guys are going to take a ride to jail. >> Yeah. Um that's just how that's going to go cuz really play around with these types of things. And I don't know if they have more of a case for you if you've done it in the past or not. Um they might cuz these guys are pretty good with what they do the the loss prevention guys. So they might have more charges on you. I don't know if you were a part of everything. >> I mean, is there any way that we can be like trespassed? Just not >> that's going to happen as well. >> Yeah, you're going to it's going to be trespass. >> It's going to be a double >> used to go shop at >> I mean this is the closest one like to my parents house. So I just >> So you guys usually shop here? >> Yeah. >> The stuff that you returned was from here today. >> Yeah. >> Okay. I guess. >> No, they weren't >> like we haven't been like it's not like we have like a history of this or anything. >> Yeah. So that's unfortunately that's not up to us. So if one is saying hey we want to press charges against them. That's just how take it and we we're the middleman in that. So we can't convince them to do either or. It's their their right to say hey we want them prosecuted for what they did. >> Well we're agreeing to take a trespassing. >> Yeah. No we hear you guys. You guys are more than cooperative. We're not saying that you guys are uh are are being crappy with us. So, um but yeah, that that's unfortunately where we're at right now. So, this this process might not be very fast. So, you guys might be sitting here for a little bit. Um >> taking advantage of the suspect's continued cooperation. The officer asked about the woman's previous incident. >> So, when you guys came in here, when you came here 4 days ago, >> they have your own video. You you were returning a bed, some lististering. What exactly were you returning? >> Oh, it was a bed and breakfast. He's probably talking about the campers. I didn't walk out with him. I left them in the aisle. >> Okay. So, >> you had the receipt from when you bought it, and then you came to the store, went to the aisle, picked it up, put it in your cart, and then returned it. And did they give you money for it? >> The bed and breakfast thing you're talking about? >> The bed and bag. That's Yeah. And >> what is the bed and bag? What is that? >> It's like a bed in a bag. Okay. >> Cheese. >> All right. And how much was that? >> Like >> $40. >> Yeah. Some change. >> Okay. >> All right. And then today, what did you what did you guys return >> today? We returned >> like water and rice. >> Water, rice, uh, like flour. Both suspects were charged with retail theft and issued a trespass warning from Walmart. Financial hardship may explain desperation, but it does not excuse theft. Choosing to cooperate and admit the truth was better than continuing to lie. Next, don't think fleeing means you're off the hook. These two suspects prove it. [music] >> And even though we don't have the property, we're still going to jail for retail theft. Doesn't change anything. Sorry, I didn't do anything wrong or anything. >> On the 12th of February, 2024, officers received a call from a Meyer store reporting a theft that had occurred with two suspects reportedly fleeing the scene afterward. When officers approached one of the suspects, he immediately denied having any involvement with the store. >> We have no buildings like that. I mean, down here. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> But but when when did you say you got here? like a minute ago. Like >> a minute ago, >> an hour ago. >> So you got you got to the terminal. >> I came from the terminal and then I got here like a minute ago. I wasn't even here long enough to go to the store. Literally, I just had left from the terminal. Then all that stuff had happened at the terminal. >> And where And where do you work at? You just do YouTube or >> I do YouTube, but I work at Plastic Pack. >> Okay. >> But you can schedule your own days on there. Okay. So again again tell me so you're saying like an hour ago you you arrived back in Champagne. >> No I didn't come from the charter. I was already in Champagne and we caught the bus over here. >> Okay. >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> So just for I just want that >> here. I don't want to we're not trying to break nothing. I'm just going to set that down. >> Yeah. I'm not trying to resist or anything. Okay. >> I'm used to the stop from Chicago. Ask. >> So, just for the minute you're being detained. >> No problem. Do your thing. Ask your question. I do YouTube. I work at Plastic Pack. I'm not doing anything wrong. I'm staying calm. >> Although he denied ever entering the store, a search of his bag revealed several items that raised serious suspicions about his involvement. >> You don't need a No. No, you don't. I don't think you do. >> I'll double check. I have not. >> Do they have they said at all what was taken? >> Uh headphones, miscellaneous food items possibly. There you go. >> You mean video game controllers? >> You said they separated. So, there's still N Oh, he didn't mention pepper spray. Look at that. Okay, perfect. Okay. Um, do you want to take this property back there? We will give him more. >> Yeah. Yeah. But or do you want us to do that? I'll leave it up to you. >> It doesn't matter to me. Whatever you Whatever you want him to do, we'll >> probably get more training experience out of us doing that. So, let's let's get everything out of here. That looks like I mean, this has already been open. >> We can always bring it. She's got one of those in her bag as well. >> I guess it's been open. >> It has not been open. >> I would guess that's been taken as well. >> Anything that we've got? Meanwhile, the woman also arrived at the scene and officers immediately placed her in handcuffs while they continued their investigation. >> All right, M. Back for me. All right. >> Um, what's going on? >> Right now, you're doing the training cuz we're investigating a stop in case you stop tensing up your arm for me. Okay. >> I would not stop. >> Well, the manager over there, stop. Put your hand behind your back right now. Thank you. So, the manager over there has a very good description of both of you. Matches everything, including the white bag and possibly a stuff in it. Okay. >> Everything might We're going to make sure. All right. Can we cut the BS? The We got called here for a reason. People matching both of your descriptions running this direction. We find you here with the exact stuff that they're talking about from Meer. Am I going to find stuff in Meer from there? >> No. >> It is a ditch somewhere along the way. >> No. >> Cuz if they get their property back, maybe they don't want to pursue charges. But if we can't get their property back, even if it's not in here, you still potentially could go to jail for retail theft today. >> All right. Where are your flip-flops at? >> Um, I didn't have on any. So, >> you left the house with no shoes. >> Yeah. >> I find that hard to believe. >> Like I told her, I want you to understand something. Like you said, you're in the area. Match in the description. Um, exactly the description of what the Meyer guy said. Red shoes, blue hoodie. >> Yeah. He let me know. I'm like, they sell like 10 of these hoodies on the rack at the stores. And >> so, you're trying to say someone else was possibly wearing that at the same time in the same area, running the same direction that you just told us. >> Possibly. I literally just came from Walmart. >> So, like like I told her, >> I knew you. >> I'm I'm betting that, you know, the property's been ditched somewhere. We're going to view the cameras there. If you're seen throwing stuff in this bag, you leave and even though we don't have the property, we're still going to jail for retail theft. Doesn't change anything. >> Sir, I didn't do anything wrong or anything. >> Both suspects were placed in the police vehicles as officers continued examining the recovered property and prepared to return the items to Meyer to confirm which ones had been stolen. Oh, is he putting her? >> Yeah. Um, but here he's going to go on this side anymore. stuff. Make sure it's >> okay. Sit there for the time being. >> Yeah, we're not. >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Bring that stuff back to me. Make sure it's actually stolen from my however the amount is and then we'll decide from there. But he's got the ATFW taser. Yeah. These were not in a bag. I don't know. Meyer employees checked the recovered items and confirmed that they belong to the store, including JBL headphones and several other items with the total value of the merchandise confirmed. >> Hey there. >> How y'all doing? >> Good. Sorry about that wait. >> Oh, you're fine. >> So, we think we have everything. We just need your guys' help in confirming what's yours. I know they got JBL headphones. >> Actually, don't know if we found headphones. So, those were No, there was no box with those. Oh, you did? Perfect. >> But there there she's got the red fuego. >> Yep. All right. >> So, those are definitely ours. So, roughly 115, unless you want an exact >> plus the headphones. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. That's including the hive headphones. >> Those are 80. Yeah. Okay. 20 10 [clears throat] 31 and one. >> Okay. And are you guys willing to go through charges for this or not? >> Oh, yeah. We're going to trespass them, too. >> Cool. >> Um >> Um are we we would like if we can an itemized receipt that just lists all those >> um and have to take a picture of them once they confirm if that's yours or not. So that's some more typical food. Usually we'll have them here instead of you know freaking mile away real quick. Sorry before you start. So obviously you won't be able to look at the camera if you talk to everybody there. You want to change your story at all? >> Honesty does go a long way sometimes. >> Yeah. Yeah. What you guys do? You don't want to say too much. >> Okay. >> Both suspects were charged with retail theft and unlawful use of a weapon. The lesson is that denying involvement does not erase the evidence. When stolen merchandise is found in a suspect's possession, their own statements can quickly be contradicted by the facts. Next, this group of thieves took their escape to an even more dangerous level. Hands by your back. Hands behind your back. Down. Down. Down. On your belly. On your belly. On your belly. Go. >> On the 13th of September, 2024, police pursued two suspects identified as being involved in a theft at a Walgreens in Villa Park. They did everything they could to escape, speeding away in a vehicle and even crashing directly into the garage of a residential home before abandoning the car and fleeing on foot. Here is what happened next. Back, back, back, back, back, back. >> Yeah. I don't know. Back. >> Yeah, the car is empty. East. West. West. Car's empty. Car is empty. We need to get a perimeter set up from Berkeley going west. >> The suspects escaped through another part of the residential property which could potentially lead to burglary charges. But even if they managed to get away from the house, they had no idea that officers had already set up a perimeter around the area. Hands behind your back. Hands behind your back. >> Get on the ground now. Get on the ground. >> Get on the ground. >> Get on the ground. >> On the ground. On the ground. On the ground. Turn around. Turn around. >> What? >> Down. Down. Down. On your belly. On your belly. On your belly. Let's go. Let's go. >> Put your hands behind your back back. Hands be on your back now. Hands behind your back. >> Get off my back. >> Hands behind your back now. >> Get off my back. >> We got 55. >> Keep going west. Go west. >> Hey, could you check my roof? Hey, thank you to my right here. >> I made for comfort, man. >> How come I had my lost key? >> Give me your key. Double lock. >> What do you do? [snorts] >> You setting up a perimeter. >> We got camera. The suspects were identified as 54year-old Owen Turner, 38-year-old Arthur Turner, and 55-year-old Thomas White. Officers quickly moved to take them back to the police station to prevent further danger to the public, but the suspects clearly had no intention of making things easy. >> Stop around. >> I'm crippled. >> You are [ __ ] when you're running. >> I'm running. >> Yeah, you were. >> I saw you. >> My dick, [ __ ] I spit on your ass. >> I have to spit on. I'm going spit on you. >> And then get a felony. Don't give no >> There's cameras around here. >> I need my phone. >> I need my phone. >> Don't worry about your phone. See y >> car. My phone first. That ain't going to work. My phone up here. I need my phone, man. Put your legs in the car. My phone. Where's >> this phone? You got it. >> I think we all >> Now you're better, right? >> Yeah. >> All right. Now, get on your butt. Get on your butt. >> I'm going help you up around. All three of those. >> ID. >> During the search of the man, officers discovered suspected narcotics on his person. The three men were also identified as being connected to a pharmacy theft in Villa Park where the stolen merchandise was valued at more than $1,300. >> Another bag. >> The other one. >> Yeah. >> Here. There's another one. I got a back here. >> Got more. >> I got one back here. >> What's your name? >> Put you in the back of the seat. All right. This comes better on you? A little better? >> Yeah. >> All right. Well, take a seat. Watch your head. >> In the end, Arthur Turner, burglary, retail theft, aggravated battery, and aggravated fleeing and eluding. He also faced an outstanding warrant for armed robbery in Winnebago County. Owen Turner, burglary and retail theft. Thomas White, burglary and retail theft. They were later released while awaiting trial and each could face up to 7 years in prison in Illinois if the charges are proven. Running from the police after a theft only makes the consequences worse. In this case, the suspect's attempt to escape turned a retail theft into a much more serious situation with additional charges and potential prison time. Next, [music] these criminals were about to reveal an even more disturbing side of their behavior. >> Buddy, have your buddy's ID? >> Uh, I work with him, man. And, uh, that's actually his body. I I saw some tires in there, but the tire that you brought in, not that tire. >> Then why didn't you tell me that? Then why wouldn't you tell me that? >> On the 31st of March 2024, police received a report from Walmart about a male and female pair allegedly committing theft at the store. Both were already familiar to law enforcement, identified as Lisa, 37, and Mingo, 39, with previous charges including criminal trespass, assault, driving while intoxicated, theft, possession of controlled substances, forgery, and mail theft. At the scene, an employee provided officers with an account of what had happened. >> Yeah, the male has a cap with a stealing price tag attached to it, and they have a bunch of pills they grab. >> I guess I already asked you, you want to press charges? >> Yeah. Okay. Just want to make sure. What register are they on? >> Register 35. 35. Like right on this side. No, they're almost to see which side they want to go on. >> And you said uh the stuff that's in the laundry basket hasn't been scanned. >> Uh the stuff in the laundry basket hasn't been scanned already or not yet. So it still hasn't been scanned. What's in the basket? Female's got green hair, green dress, and apparently she has tights on. The the male has a hat from the store with the tag still on it on his head. >> So, are they still committing the act or what are they doing? >> They're still in the act uh doing it. Trying to pay. >> They're trying to pay. >> Yeah. Or pretending to pay, but they just closed. >> But they they closed this doors already, so they're going to head to the grocery side now. >> Okay. Yeah. >> The officers then positioned themselves at different areas to block the suspect's exit. As the pair attempted to push their cart out, they were approached by the officers. You got anything on here? Come stick me, anything like that? >> No. Can I Can I pet you down? Make sure you got no sir. Back. Okay. Okay. >> You're just going to be detained for right now, right? >> What am I being detained for? reason suspicion that stealing. >> What? >> What is this suspicion? >> Can I search you? Make sure you don't have anything any weapons on you? >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. Spread your feet for me. You got your wallet or ID on you? >> Yes, sir. Well, I don't have I don't have >> I got I don't have my ID or anything. >> You're alive, bro. >> That's not my ID. That's my buddies from work change. >> Why do you have your buddy's ID? >> Uh I work with him, man. And uh that's actually his wallet, but um I was carrying it today cuz uh he left it in New York. So >> when you when you stop lying? >> No, I'm serious. I'm I swear to God, man. But matter of fact, I had it for about two weeks already. He I just stay home, man. So >> Who's the female that's with you? >> Oh, that's my girlfriend. >> Your girlfriend? >> Yeah. She's kind of she's something else, man. >> The fact that the man was carrying multiple IDs belonging to other people made the situation even more suspicious, casting further doubt on the woman's statements after she was detained. >> Just be straight up cuz we've got a lot of security. >> What's that? Everything you guys already had. I already I already told this stuff in there was mine when I came in here. I paid $540 for that stuff. Not to mention $200 for the >> damn thing. >> Can you please help? >> All right. So, they watched you conceal items in your bag. So, I'm going to retrieve those items. Okay. Do you have any other stolen property on your person? >> What's your last? >> Yep. >> Okay. >> Yeah. Mhm. >> Yep. This is stolen. Nice. All right. Stand up. >> Stand up. >> Hey, man. So, we can't have you eating and stuff like that while we're in our in our extension. So, we're going to place you in handcuffs for now. >> Stand up. >> You don't have to grab it like that. I will stand up. I will stand up. >> Place your hand on your back. You're just being detained with handcuffs for now. I'm just pinning a theft investigation. Again, >> my mom is going to pay for all of this. >> Okay. We'll we'll work through that. Okay. >> You can't tell me. I'm not trying to pay for my items. >> Okay. >> I have the money for you. >> Okay. So, we're going to work through We're going to talk to the employees. Because neither of them had valid IDs to verify their identities, the officers had to rely on photos from a previous incident involving the pair along with the information the man provided himself. However, everything they uncovered only raised their suspicions even further. >> Hey, look at me. I got tattoos. Turn >> your head that way. >> How long you had those tattoos on your face? Several years now. Couple years now. >> How many? How long? >> A couple years. >> Two years. >> Okay. Give us your real name and your full name. Adam. >> Give me your full real name. >> His name is Adamia. >> Adam, what's your middle name? >> I don't have names. >> Do you have like two last names? Lisa, I'm not asking you. >> You act like he's lying. I'm tired of it. >> Hey, do you have two two last names? Possibly. >> No, I'll go by Arod, too, but >> Okay. How do you spell that? >> Adamo. A R R E D O N G O. >> Okay. >> Will that be before or after Mia? >> Is that going to be Mia? Spaced Arondo. >> Ardondo. >> Yeah. Okay. >> Is it Arendondo or Arando? >> Ardondo. >> Spell a R E D O E O O N G O. >> Spell it. >> You don't know how to spell your last name. Why does it keep changing? I got my stomach real name R. >> Can you talk to my mom? >> What's your first thing? >> We're not talking to anyone right now. Okay. >> Well, she'll tell you that she's trying to pay for the merchandise and I was trying to pay for the merchandise. I have all of it and I wasn't going to take. >> So, understand. So, let me let me reply. Let me talk to you real quick. Let me talk to you real quick. >> The woman still stubbornly denied any wrongdoing. She was then confronted directly with the losserevention employee about what she had done, but it was her reaction that drew the most attention. >> There's no warranty on the tire at all on the tire. There's nothing on the tire. >> You gave it to me for pro rated $80. >> So, there is no peration on everything from right now, but there's nothing on that tire. We had no insurance on that tire. It was not even >> I always buy my tires from Walmart. >> Yes, ma'am. I saw some tires in there, but the tire that you brought in, not that tire. >> Then why didn't you tell me that? Why wouldn't you tell me that >> that tire was not paid for? Everything was paid for. >> So you can't trust me for that. He set me up. >> If it's not paid for at the store bull, we're not going to go back and forth. What was the receipt that you gave her? So there was no receipt. >> Oh, there was no receipt. You never handed her anything? Where's the receipt? >> So he's going to set fire. He told me I could come back in the morning with my other one. >> Sir, did you not tell me I could come back with the other one in the morning and come back with the other one? Fix it for Did you see Did you hear them say that? >> Did you hear him say Put your back to that wall for me. >> Did you hear when he said that? >> He said I could bring the other one back in the morning. They would fix it. >> I'm offering to pay. >> I'm offering to pay this. >> Okay. It'll go with you. But we're just going to take this off. Okay. >> It'll go with you. >> What? >> I have all the money. Stop. >> She immediately portrayed herself as the victim instead of admitting her wrongdoing, showing no remorse whatsoever. On top of that, the officers discovered another offense that she was carrying with her. >> Hey. Hey, Lisa. I need you to be honest with me right now. Okay, >> Lisa, we're not playing this feel bad game. Okay. Is there anything in there that's going to harm my partner? We just found a pipe in there. Lisa, look at me. >> Lisa, look at me. I'm not talking about needles. I'm talking about anything like I don't want my partner getting a whiff of Oh, no. No. >> No. Do you have fetamine in your bag? >> No. >> So, you just have the flight? >> When's the last time I smoked? >> Two days. >> Two days ago. >> I don't believe you. >> I am trying to sober up, >> Lisa. So, I I know that people that battle from addiction are not able to go two days without using. Okay. >> Yes, they are able to >> and not y'all would have very very bad withdrawals. >> Drank. Yeah. Alcohol instead. Lisa, do you have anything on you or inside of you? >> I pay for what I need to pay for. >> Okay. I'm giving you this opportunity to be honest with me. >> Because if you're not, when you go up to the jail, we're going to request them to do a >> TDC scan. You can show him resin. >> Resin. >> No, >> you can look at it. I'll test it. It's But okay. >> Resin out of a bomb. >> Okay. Come on, man. >> Lisa, you're also in custody possession controlled substance. >> Betamine and Xanax. >> No, I have the money to pay. Can I at least pay for my stuff so I don't have a theft charge? >> Can I please still pay for my stuff so I don't have a theft charge? We don't have a theft charge, please. >> No, we're we're past that. >> Why do you want to do that? Why don't I pay for the item? >> I It's not my decision. The The store said they No, it's not. The store said they want to pursue charges. >> That's not letting me pay for this though. That's making me steal it. >> How is that possible? >> So whenever you walk past all registers, >> if there's 30 registers, the store looks at it as the registers. >> Are you done with that? >> The store looks at it as you have 30 chances to pay for. Is there anything that you need to get from here before we take them out? >> Finally, Lisa was arrested for theft and possession of a controlled substance. Mingo was arrested for theft and was also investigated for providing false identification and possessing prescription medication improperly. The lesson is simple. Denying the obvious only makes the situation worse when surveillance footage and other evidence already tell the real story. Once officers uncover additional offenses, refusing to cooperate can turn a shoplifting case into an even more serious situation. Even worse, the suspects in the following case went as far as ramming a civilian vehicle just to escape. Get on the ground. >> Get your hands off. >> On the 13th of July 2023, officers were dispatched to Target after receiving a report of a wanted theft suspect attempting to flee in a vehicle. Even after police blocked his path, he showed no signs of stopping, causing the situation to quickly turn chaotic. Hey, >> let me see your hands. >> Let me see your hands. Stop. Stop. Let me see your hands. >> Let me see your hands. >> Show me your hands. Stop. >> Get on the ground. Get on the ground. >> Get on the ground. Get back here.

Hell yeah, man. somebody. Okay. >> The man remained completely silent with a blank and unresponsive demeanor, leading the officers to suspect that he was still affected by the taser. >> You know where you got head with the taser probes? >> Not really. >> Did you lock up? >> I know one of them in my stomach. >> What you mean I lock up? >> Is there only one? >> Did you feel it? RA. >> Uh there's there's two deployments of four probes total. >> I meant one. >> Yeah.

The man was identified as Trayvon Patterson due to the existing warrant while the frightened woman voluntarily provided the officers with her name. >> Um, >> can you spell it by my name? I don't remember it. Raglin, >> I spelled that. >> R A G L A N D. >> R A G >> L A N D. >> L A >> N D >> N D. >> Yes. >> First name >> Monnique. >> M O N >> I Q U E. date of birth. >> 121 1992.

My My kids are at this place, sir. >> They're at where? Returning to the man once he became more cooperative, he also explained why he had fled. >> What do I mean? What happened when you're in the vehicle? >> And I just I fear for my life. Honestly, I didn't know what what was about to happen. It was too much aggression and I don't I don't know. When you're in the vehicle, did you put it in drive? did. Okay. What happened after that? What's that? >> Took off. >> You took off on foot, running, or in your vehicle? >> In the vehicle. >> Okay.

Man, what is he doing? >> Trayvon Patterson faced charges including robbery, failure to comply, having weapons while under disability, drug trafficking, receiving stolen property, criminal damaging, theft, and resisting arrest. Monique Raglin was charged with possession of drugs and an out of jurisdiction warrant. This case shows how quickly an attempt to flee from police, can escalate into a much more serious situation. Running from officers, especially in a vehicle, can lead to additional charges and put both the suspect and innocent people at serious risk. Next, a Real Housewives couple is pulled over in connection with a $5,000 Publix theft scheme. >> Put your back. >> We'll explain everything in a second. >> The scanner then that's that's on Publix. >> But there's an error on the scanner. Okay. On the 10th of March 2026, police pulled over an SUV after discovering that the vehicle's registered owner did not have a valid driver's license. But that was only the beginning, as much more was uncovered afterward. Here's what happened when officers first approached the vehicle. >> How you doing today? What's >> So, the reason I pulled you over today is cuz the registered owner of this vehicle uh does not have a license. So, I'm assuming >> does not have a license. Yeah, it does not have a license on file. So, I'm assuming you're not the registered owner, but could I just get your information? >> My wife is Are we from South Africa? >> Okay. >> I was pick up with my license from a from South Africa, but we have international driver's licenses. >> That's okay. Uh, and just one thing, any could I just get a current address from? >> Yeah. Um, >> the pink building there on the corner. Okay, >> that's okay. >> So, I'm just going to have you sip out of the car really quick. >> On your way out to me, a favor. Just leave the shoulder bag on the seat. >> Guys, coffee. >> That's all right. Just turn this way for me. Change it down. You could always ask him if he has any needles, anything that's going to stick you, prick you. Okay. Nothing. >> Nothing on you. >> Normally, not having a valid driver's license alone would not be enough to immediately put someone in handcuffs. However, the officers took action because they had already discovered that he was connected to a separate retail theft investigation. >> Petress. Petress. Okay. You go by Pete or Pete? >> Pete. Okay. I'm Detective Williamson. All right. Obviously, I'm with the Boertown Police Department. I'm investigating a crime that's been occurring since August of last year. Uh so that's what you're being arrested for. It's uh for retail theft. All right. So what's going to happen is we're going to take you back to our >> together. >> We're going to take you back to our uh our headquarters and we're going to sit there. We're going to have have a conversation. All right. And then you'll be transported to the um I'm going to see if we can get this picked up for you. >> If not, it's going to be tone. Okay. Um, you're going to transport. >> He doesn't have a working computer. Okay. >> Yeah. He said he said she'll >> he said she'll open the door. He said she she'll she'll open the door. >> Meanwhile, another team of officers was dispatched to an apartment complex to approach another suspect connected to the same theft case. You want to uh >> privacy mode, >> Melanie? Hey, step on out of the police department. >> Come on. Step on our force, please. Hello. How are you? Come on. Step on our course. >> Put your hands behind your back. >> We'll explain everything in a second. >> Can I call my husband? >> We'll explain everything in a second. Ma'am, is there any animals or children or anything in the house? >> No. >> I'm sorry. >> No. No. Okay. >> Okay. >> Can we get you some shoes? >> Okay. >> Uh, you just hit the top button. >> Yeah. Just hit the top. >> Yeah. >> Oh, left. 50, 1800. >> Watch your step. >> I parked over here. >> If you could just put your palms together, please. >> Back to our uh our headquarters. >> Both suspects were handcuffed calmly as if they already understood what was happening. At that point, officers directly brought up the incidents that had occurred at Publix. >> Like I said, this morning out in the in the um field, we're investigating some Publix thefts that have been occurring here. Okay. where you and and a counterpart, I'm assuming your wife, goes into the Publix and you you scan some seasoning packets and and other items, right? That's not the items that you're scanning, right? That sound familiar? >> No. >> Okay. All right. I have some things that I want to show you. >> Okay. >> And then I'll maybe it'll jog your memory. Okay. >> What does your wife do? >> She ran the businesses with me. >> Mhm. >> Yeah. We do nothing until we have a permit >> here. You do nothing. We do nothing until we have a permit. >> Okay. So, how are you making your money here? >> We have money. >> Oh, you have money from from South Africa. >> This is from October 25th. I'm sorry. October 3rd, 2025. >> Picture of a male and a female. >> Yeah. >> Who's that? >> That's me and my wife in the back. >> Okay. And what are you doing there? >> You're probably shopping. It's a shopping cart. >> Okay. It's a shopping cart. >> Probably. Yeah. Okay. And you don't know where that is either. >> You're asking where that is. I I could be in I could be anywhere with Are You asking me whether I recognize the trolley, which I don't. >> Okay. >> Based on the evidence the detective showed him, the man acted as if he did not recognize what was happening, suggesting it was intentional. Then, surprisingly, he calmly tried to shift the blame away from himself. I think you guys are on a fishing trip. Mhm. >> You have a system where you scan stuff. If there's an error, there's a error. Uh the people can sue us. But this is a fishing trip. So I think you want me to admit certain stuff which is not didn't happen. >> Okay. >> So um I I really think this is a misunderstanding if anything or a lack of of knowing the the scanning system. >> It's new for us. Um, if if there's a error on the scanner, then that's that's on Publix. >> If there's an error on the scanner. Okay. So, what about the times when you did just didn't pay for stuff? You just walked out. >> No. No. I've never not paid for stuff. >> Okay. Right. So, here's the thing. Here's the thing. Whether you did it or not, at this point doesn't even matter, right? Cuz I have my video. I have my evidence. I'm just trying to figure out why. You guys are South African. You guys clearly have money like you said, right? You came here for a better life. This this doesn't seem like a better life. >> I'm telling you now that that if there's an item you you didn't show me anything like you show me where my wife is talking to the guy from Publix >> paying for stuff and then I walk out. >> Your wife paid for one item. You never entered the sc the selfch checkckout is what you're not understanding. If if you go through everything, you'll see that my wife gets irritated with me and mostly she checks everything and scans everything and the guys there help her. >> Okay. But you never entered the selfch checkout is what I'm what is what I'm telling you. I just showed you the video where you never entered the selfch checkout. >> I never checked out checked in with checkout with that trolley of stuff. >> No, you didn't. The No, this video does not show you entering selfch checkckout at all. >> Okay. I'm I'm trying to just fit the blocks. This is very overwhelming. Okay. >> He continued to stubbornly deny his actions. Meanwhile, contradicting the man's story, the woman gave a different explanation about their finances, >> knowing that there's no money in the bank. >> No, there's money in the bank. >> Okay. >> With enough money in the bank. >> If you're not working, you say you still have money from from home. >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> We have enough money from home. >> What do you guys do here? >> We can't work yet. >> You don't work at all? >> Not yet. >> Okay. So, what have you been doing for the last eight months since you've been here? >> Studying. >> Studying. What do you study? >> Studying law. Studying um you know clip test. Do you know clip? >> No. >> To build like college points. >> Oh, no. I've never heard of that. >> Um so that we can get and waiting for the work permits. >> Okay. How far in the process are you guys? >> It's any day now. >> Any day now. Okay. Well, listen. I truly hope that this doesn't affect your work permit. But I also hope that if it does not affect your work permit, you turn around and you actually be a good person that you can be, right? We like she said, you don't look like a bad person. You seem like a really nice person, right? >> It happens. It It has happened. Let's move forward. I don't want to see your name on another PC. Okay. You want some more of that water because you're not going to be able to take it with you. So, you want to drink some more of the water. Okay. I'm just saying it's hard to see someone you love. >> But if you have evidence of me doing anything, I mean, is there really evidence? >> Yeah, there's a lot >> that I'm missing anything. >> Yeah. So, in in the United States and in Florida, we can't put handcuffs on you and bring you down here unless we don't have enough evidence to >> I see. All righty. So, we're going to take you over to the um the jail at the sale over there. >> The cops are not necessary, right? >> Only to walk through. >> Both suspects were charged with aggravated grand retail theft over $3,000 under Florida law. Even when they thought their stories could protect them, the evidence told a different story. Denying the truth only made their deception harder to hide. What do you think about cases like this?

Next, these shoplifterss even used innocent family member to make the situation more difficult. >> You guys got me jittery. I'm 4 months pregnant. No, let me out of these handcuffs now. >> My back. >> I have I have back home disc right now. >> On the 22nd of August 2025, police were dispatched to a [music] Walmart store after reports claimed that two women had been shoplifting inside the store. Even worse, they were allegedly not alone during the incident. To make things clearer, loss prevention officers began breaking down everything through the surveillance cameras. >> That's her right there. That's her right now. >> So, is it just her or is it both of them? >> That's only her her friend. That's her friend. >> Okay. So, she's not still >> technically the she's part of >> she um they they have a drawers. >> She popped one of the drawers apart, stacked them two. So, it looks like there's one, but it's actually two stacked on top of each other. >> Okay. >> Yeah, they're together. And they got a kid with them. That's a crazy thing. >> Do we know if they came in the car or do they have like a lookout? Do we know? >> She was the lookout. The friend was the lookout. >> Which way are they going? They're going the other way. >> She going to the bathroom to the restroom. >> Can I tell the kid that their mom whose mom's a loser? >> Child. >> That's what I said. >> The other one [ __ ] bricks right now. >> I think they saw the two security guards walking. So, we're good on the on the black female. >> Yeah. >> Let's go grab her. >> She's in the bathroom. >> I identify as a woman. >> One of the women allegedly rushed into the restroom suspected of concealing merchandise to avoid detection. But the situation quickly turned chaotic once officers approached her. >> You step on out. All right. >> I'm sorry. >> Step on out. You're concealing items. You're under arrest. >> No, I'm not. >> Yes, ma'am. You are. >> I just saw these items in here. I was just looking like what was up. These are my items here. >> That's right. You're underesting. I'm not resisting. >> I'm not concealing it. He's under paper. Raina, >> I'm not concealing items. Sir, please.

Wait. >> You're going to get more charges. Just stand up. >> I got to pull my pants up, please. >> Meanwhile, the other woman was stopped by another officer. And judging by what she had witnessed, she didn't seem willing to make things easy either. >> I'm right here. I'm right here. They're going to give me nowhere. I'm right here. >> Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. >> No. Y'all got to give me my kid. Y'all can't do that. >> Listen. >> Listen. Y'all are going to give me my kid. I'm not putting my hands on y'all. I'm not touching y'all.

Nothing in my purse, nothing. >> This is crazy. >> It was clear they were willing to escalate the situation, even with an innocent family member involved earlier. Even while stepping outside, she began asserting her rights as a citizen, seemingly as a way to reinforce her claim of innocence. >> So, >> we can't put you in there because the other person was in there. >> You cannot put me in there because I'm not going to jail for nothing. >> Take a seat. We never said you're going to jail yet. >> You need to take me out of handcuffs legally. You can Okay, let me call my lawyer. Take my handcuffs off.

We get everything done with and then you can go about your business, right? >> For what? I didn't take nothing. >> Are you going to Are you going to go inside the car? >> No. Get me out of these handcuffs, bro. Cuz like I already feel like I need to go to the hospital. I don't feel well. You guys got me jittery. I'ming 4 months pregnant. No. Let me out of these handcuffs now. >> That's not going to happen. >> I have a daughter I need to get home to with a babysitter. >> Okay, good. Listen to me. Listen to me. >> This is This is This is not going to happen this way. Okay. >> You have me, you know, you have me in handcuffs right now and I didn't touch anything.

No, it's not irrelevant because you got me in handcuffs for yelling. >> Okay. >> She denied all accusations of theft, but inside the store, the situation with the other woman told a different story, especially after she was shown footage of her own actions. >> I didn't know that. >> I've done that before. Box, my purchase. That's fine. We have you on video conselling items in your purse if that's the reason for your arrest. Okay. >> All right. So once you can sell something in like a purse or in your property that is a crime. Okay. And Walmart is what pursuing charges. >> Is there somebody for the kid or is it a DCF thing? Kids with them. So So it's emergency call out for DCF. >> Why would I have a question? >> There's no more answers. >> DCF comes for my child. >> Put her in the car. >> Like I'm so confused right now. >> Like come and check her out. >> Okay.

Like, these are my children who are at home. I was not stealing. I don't even understand why you guys are having me in handcuffs. >> A babysitter. >> As soon as we get to the station, you can uh you can call them. Do you have another family member that could stand in her place? >> No, I don't. That's the thing. I was in the middle of moving. I didn't even know that she was taking anything. That's why I'm freaking out right now because why are police here? I need to stand up. >> Who? What? >> My back. >> Your back. >> I have I have back problems. I haveated disc. I just had a car accident. I need to stand up. That's where I need to sit right now. >> In the end, she was charged with child abuse, retail theft, and resisting without violence. Involving a child in unlawful situations can quickly escalate legal consequences, and denying clear evidence only worsens the outcome once an investigation is underway. Next, the shoplifterss appeared even more clueless than the consequences of their own wrongdoing. >> Any Walmart be >> Sam? >> On the 14th of April 2026, police received a report from Walmart regarding the occurrence of a shoplifting incident with the suspect believed to be a couple consisting of a male and a female working together. For more detail, the statement from the loss prevention employee at the store clarified the situation. >> Whatever she's wearing is ours. And in her purse, they have conceal electronics like a speaker, more clothes. >> Okay. >> Um I think it's also makeup. >> They were about to head out, but then they turned decide to go to toys. My father toy section right now. >> They're coming right now. >> 45. >> You have one? Just send me a third unit in case they rob it out of here. >> Where is he? He's still there. >> I have a cop. I have a cop. I have another cop waiting on the grocery. I don't know. >> All right, we passed a McDonald's. It looked like they're probably going to exit out of the grocery store. >> Immediately upon receiving news that the shoplifterss were leaving, a team of officers stopped them and took them to the loss prevention office where they of course were required to hand over the products they had stolen. >> What about you? Do you have anything you pay for? Just your clothes. The >> stuff in the bag. >> Yeah, in her bag. The drone. >> The stuff in her bag. with the the speaker as a speaker. >> Just go through the whole thing. There's merchandise in there. You can go through the whole thing. >> And this is one chance to like be honest. If you got stuff, just hand it over. Don't lie. What's your address? Do you think this was their first time committing this act when there wasn't even a trace of shame on their faces? And they even seemed confused about what they would be trespassed for and what they would have to face indefinitely. Any Walmart? Any >> Walmart? >> Any Walmart be >> Walmart? Sam's Club Sam's Club. >> Yeah. Sounds easy. >> I just have a question. How come? How come Sam? >> It's under Walmart. >> They're own definitely as in forever. >> Yes, >> pretty much. The total loss was quickly determined by the officers to be $262. Combined with the evidence collected earlier, they now had enough to confidently make their decision. stop. >> Yeah, I'm just turned And are we allowed to know the amount? Cuz it would be >> 260 262. >> We could arrest you if you was under $100. >> It's not up to them. It's up to us at the end of the day. What? >> The bill would not be acceptable. >> There's no >> I'll bring those back. >> No, I just wanted to know. >> Can I please have my >> No, you're going to get searched. It's not going to go in there. >> The individuals were formally charged with shoplifting. The actions of the individuals show how quickly a situation can escalate when dishonesty is involved in minor theft cases. Once evidence begins to accumulate, the outcome becomes largely unavoidable, highlighting the importance of accountability before a situation reaches a legal threshold. >> Reason to touch me. >> No, I'm a passenger. Let me go. >> No, >> you're not J. [screaming] Stop. Stop. >> On the 19th of March 2026, the police conducted a traffic stop on a vehicle after the woman inside was involved in a traffic violation. But from the very first moments, she showed no intention of cooperating. >> Hello, buddy. >> How's it going today? I'm >> all right. What's the problem? >> Good. I was pulling you over for not wearing seat belts. All >> was on, buddy. >> It was not on. >> We got 4K cameras. It was 100% not on. I was watching. >> All right, buddy. >> All right. Got your uh license with you? right there. >> You really going to tell me it wasn't on? >> I'm not going to be a gift. >> A seat belt? >> Yeah. >> You can think it's petty if you want, but it's still saying don't need a lie. Uh, you still live in that? >> I am. >> Perfect. >> Can I go then? Because I live down the street and I want to >> No, but when we're done, you can go. >> Dude, I'm not the driver and I'm wearing my seat belt. >> I'm telling you can't leave. So, no. Sum it up. >> All right. Uh, do you have insurance on the car, sir? >> What's that? >> Do you have insurance on the car? It's in there, isn't it? >> This is a [ __ ] attitude for no reason. >> I don't feel good and I want to go home. I feel in the back. >> Okay. Sorry, your driver wasn't wearing a seat belt. That's our fault. >> That's not my fault either, though. >> No, it's not. But you're involved in the trap stop. >> No, I'm just pass. >> I just got a ride from the food pantry. My food's in. >> Okay. You can't leave. >> Okay, then call your supervisor. Ask him the rules because I'm still >> The rules are the law. >> I'm not doing anything. I'm at pass. >> And you're not free to leave on a traffic stop right now. Okay. Okay. >> Called us a daytime supervisor on the shift. >> Well, no. You wanted a supervisor. So, I'm getting her a supervisor. >> I'm talking to him now. So, >> I know. I'm just letting you know. He said he didn't want problems. So, >> I'm still on duty and you want me that way. >> Can you roll your window up real quick, ma? >> Oh, no. It's hot. >> Okay. We're going to run the dog. So, you're going to roll the window up. >> It's It's a risk. >> I demand a supervisor. >> And a supervisor is on the way. From requesting a supervisor to placing her foot on the vehicle door while speaking with the officer, she clearly demonstrated that she was in a position of power. She even knew how to put herself into a victim position. >> You will not >> Huh? >> touch me. >> What? >> You will not touch me. >> You're going to be searched. >> Why would I be searched? I'm a passenger. Call I want an ambulance. Then you have no reason to touch me. K9. >> No, I'm a passenger. Let me go. >> Breathe. >> No. Let I need to try. I have Parkinson's disease and I want to go home. He gave me a ride for the food pantry. You won't touch me. You won't touch me. >> No. No. [screaming] No. You're taking demands of me.

You're not. or else you're going to be placed under arrest. >> Okay, stand over here. >> You can see that the officers treated her carefully and in a relatively calm manner, but she responded in the opposite way. The situation escalated to its peak when her resistance during handcuffing turned everything into chaos. >> No. Put your hands behind your hand. Break. Call the ambulance. No, I'm not doing anything. No. >> [screaming] >> We have one resisting video. [screaming] >> No. >> Do you want to do not kick >> down before you hurt yourself? Calm down before you hurt yourself. >> Before you hurt yourself, sorry. Stand up. Stand up. Stand up. Touch me. You're touching me. Don't touch me. [screaming] >> Stand up.

Put her on your face. Why you hand me back? Hand me on your back. [screaming] >> Wildfire. >> The officers struggled to handcuff the woman while the male driver also showed suspicious behavior. Fearing that he might interfere, the officers were forced to issue a clear warning. >> You can lean against the car and record all you want, but first off, she's instructed to get out. And obviously you told her what she was before you approached her. So you guys you guys actually promote that with your knowledge of how you handle your public. It's your fault. It's >> all our fault. Okay. Uh we lean against my car like we told you. >> Yeah. >> I'm only going to tell you one more time. I'm not you're already you're still the one that >> my car. You're still the one that's pulled over. >> You're still the one that's obviously being searched for narcotics. >> Work to pay your guys. >> Okay. Just turn off the chains way back. >> What have I done? I'm talking to you on the car and you're arguing with me. What have I done to you? >> This is simple. I'm tired of telling you what to do. >> I'm sitting on a car. What did I do to this dude? Well, we're going to figure that out here in just a minute. >> You don't listen. That's the problem. >> I'm sitting on the car literally. >> No, you're not. You're the one that's on the traffic, right? >> 15year-old daughter. You remember that? >> Okay. I don't really care what you tell me, man. Turn on. Spread your feet. >> Okay. I just three now. >> It's okay. >> Yeah. >> I know. So, let me get this right. Were you the one pulled over? >> Yeah. >> Correct. Were you on trap stop? >> Correct. And were you the one sitting here just running back and forth like you think you on the show? >> No. You're going to hear about this when they come up to the car having a problem and I backed off the car. >> Well, how about you be helpful instead of sitting there being the problem all the time? >> No, you're not. You're going back and forth sitting here trying to talk [ __ ] >> It's ridiculous. >> I've done nothing wrong. >> Okay. >> I want to adjust your legs. >> I don't want you in this position. >> It might have seemed like handcuffing her would calm the situation down, but it didn't. [music] Instead, she continued to make things more difficult and escalated the situation further, even engaging in more erratic behavior. >> I don't bend that way. I don't. >> This is the normal way I like. >> Ma'am. Ma'am, >> we're trying to stop you from hurting yourself. >> All right. >> These are backwards. These are backwards. >> I have to stand up. We're trying to help you, [screaming] but you're not listening. >> I don't have the muscle control. >> Help you out. All right. Three, two, one. There we go. >> Perfect. >> Come over here, please. >> My glasses. Please don't step on the stand here by this when they come up. >> You stand right here. >> I can't hold myself up. You don't understand. >> No. >> All right. Are you Jenny? >> No. >> You're not Jenny. >> Yes. Yes. [screaming] >> Stop. >> Well, you are not real bright, huh? >> What the Okay. 3 2 1 I can't I can't I >> Yeah, I give you just give random people rides or how do you even know her? >> I've known her for quite a while, buddy. She's sick. >> Do you think she intentionally injured herself to try to present herself more as a victim? Of course, the body camera footage will serve as evidence against that claim. Meanwhile, the process of getting her into the patrol vehicle was also made increasingly difficult by her resistance. >> I can't. >> Ma'am, >> I'm going. I'm trying. I can't. >> All right, then. We'll get in, mama. Here. >> Let's go and get up. >> I can't get my [screaming] leg. It's this one. It's this one. I can't do it. I can't do it. You're feeling >> I can't do it. >> I can't I can't. >> Okay. Okay. >> Pick the head up. >> I can't. What are you doing? [screaming] These are backwards. My hands are backwards. >> Nope. >> She didn't have meth on her. So, is there going to be anything on you down your pants or anything? Okay. >> I don't know what she had on. What's that got to do with me? >> Wait, you're the driver of the vehicle, right? That's your >> food pantry. I left work with tumble. >> You should know who you're giving a right to. >> A friend who smokes methamphetamine. >> So what? >> The woman was charged with possession of methamphetamine, resisting arrest, and obstructing law enforcement. Resistance during a traffic stop only escalates the situation. What starts as a minor violation can quickly [music] turn into serious criminal charges if a person refuses lawful instructions or continues to argue with officers. Cooperation and calm behavior are what prevent the situation from getting worse. >> Stand up. >> I'm the queen of law. Do your job right. >> You guys can't do it. >> You are under arrest for theft. You're going to be under arrest for resisting from us. On the 7th [snorts] of June 2025, officers received a report from a retail store about a theft, followed by a suspect fleeing the scene. The suspect was identified as a woman who attempted to leave after threatening staff and customers when she was caught in the act. This was what happened when officers located her shortly after. >> Both released an army. >> Hey, stop. You're being You're being detained. You're under arrest for theft. >> I'm back, ma'am. Stop.

I don't have >> The woman denied her actions, insisting she had nothing on her. The situation grew even more chaotic as she continuously made strange and confusing demands. >> Are you hurting me? You got somebody to hit me. What is booked over an error? Police. Police. What is booked an error? Do you guys speak English? >> Yeah, I'm ignoring you. >> Why are you ignoring me? What is booked to release an error? scream. Okay. Okay. Once we get you in the car. >> No, I'm not going in the car cuz I didn't do anything wrong.

You No, I don't need help. >> I don't need help. >> Okay, then stand up. >> I'm the queen of the law cartel. >> She believed she was above the law, revealing a deeply unstable state of mind, and her behavior only made the situation more difficult. You guys are you are ow [screaming] no. I refuse to go in there. No. >> I'm going to put you in a wrap for cooperating. >> For what? >> Because you're not helping. >> You know, I didn't do anything.

I answered your question and I don't have on me. So, you guys cannot arrest me. >> If we see you on camera walking out that store without paper stuff, you're under arrest. >> You know why I'm doing it? Cuz I want you guys to explain what or release an error means. asked why I did it cuz every time I ask no answers. >> We'll talk once you get in. >> Go to jail. >> Okay. Duh. They really don't. >> But I I I really did it to get answers. I'm really rich, you guys. I'm rich. Okay. I just This is the only way to do it cuz I've been I've tried to track down town police and they run from >> I have to in the car. That's way more comfortable. >> No, I I don't want to go in the car.

I'm >> although she said many things, none of it was enough to serve as a credible excuse to free her from the charges. So, the officers made their decision and explained her actions to her once again. >> Okay. So, you are under arrest for theft. You're going to be under arrest for resisting since you ran from us. But we're going to wait for the medics to come check you out. Make sure you're all good to go. >> I just have to advise your rights. Okay. Standard procedure. So, you have the right to remain silent. Do you understand each of these rights? I have explained to you ma'am. >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. >> As well as some drugs.

Okay. >> Immediately after successfully apprehending the suspect, the officers proceeded to recover the stolen items she had attempted to discard while fleeing. Okay, I'm just going to bring the stuff and get a receipt. >> Have her pop her head out for our SC. >> I left one on the ground. >> Uh, please, if you don't mind. Thank you so much. >> Thank you for your service. >> Appreciate it. Thank you. All right. I'm just going to need a receipt for all this stuff. And I have it all set aside here just for a receipt.

Let me move this stuff and then I'll get you a second. >> Thank you. >> I don't know if this went to the backpack or something. >> Oh, probably to this one here. I think that's probably the tag that fell off from this one cuz it had a tag when I picked it up. It came off. >> There's a receipt on there and it was with all the stuff. So, I'm pretty sure reserves. There's nothing else on it. that we see. >> I want to move half of the bars. >> Probably. >> I don't see that. Hopefully, we find it somewhere. But >> 66. Oh, this is yesterday. Just a receipt from yesterday. How far you want to stand by for 30 seconds?

How about this? You take a photo. Confirm with Paula. If it's them, I'll bring it back. If not, I'll just >> You got a liar. >> And then she's working on a statement right now. Okay. >> But that one is really worn out. >> Yeah. >> Like seven. >> So maybe she'll recognize them because they belong to the store, but they're all on a different day. >> Yeah. Okay. >> She was ultimately charged with theft in the third degree for stealing merchandise and resisting arrest after attempting to flee from officers. Actions driven by denial and impulsive decisions only make the consequences. Next, the mother ended up facing three separate criminal charges in a single afternoon. >> I promise I >> it's not going to be filmed. >> Okay, but my name is not what name it is. I change I'll give you my real name. I just >> No, that's even worse. >> Because I didn't want >> On the 3rd of June 2024, police received a report from a Target store about a woman attempting to leave with a full cart of merchandise without any intention of paying. Upon arriving at the scene, officers quickly realized the situation was far more complicated as a family member was also present with her. >> How you doing? How are you? >> What's up? >> So, she's very concerned about her kid getting taken away right now. So, she's kind of antsy and on >> Okay. So, what what happened anyway? >> That ball cart right here is all everything. She tried to walk out with everything. >> Got it. >> I got it. Yep. >> Oh, boy. >> Can we start working? Good night. You going to be a trainer seat, please? Literally just watching, loaded them all up, went to our apartment, grabbed some clothes, put on top of it. >> What happened? >> Tried to walk right out. >> I was uh well, my dad had passed. I was trying to look up front and had money. So, we're just trying to get some stuff. [laughter] People can ask for help. Stealing stuff. She sent me stealing stuff. >> All that liquor. >> It's a lot [music] of liquor >> for a funeral. Really? >> Hey, Antonio. >> The woman admitted to her actions along with a reason that was sympathetic but difficult to accept. However, when officers looked at the shopping cart, they formed a very different opinion. >> Chicken just called off. She took those out. Yeah. Yes, this is all for sale. >> The total value of the merchandise was confirmed to exceed $700, which was enough to elevate the case to a felony level offense. So, the officers informed her of their decision. >> We're going to try and make this as nice as possible. I'm getting a car seat for the little one. Um, we're going to go to a station. Um, I'm going to charge you with retail theft because at a dollar amount, I'm going to have to screen it for you. contact our state's attorney, he gets a felony amount. More than likely, because you have no criminal history there, they're not going to approve a felony. But I have to go through the process. So, I want to let you know how it works. >> Could he go with his dad? I don't want to take him to the police station. >> If if he's out there, if he has nothing to do with it, >> he don't >> he has nothing in that car that uh that was stolen from him. >> He never came. This is my first time coming in. >> What's he wearing? >> He have on all black a black shirt, black pants, and black Jordans. and a black hat. >> With the presence of a man outside, officers also updated her on the situation which caused her to become visibly worried. >> Well, you're not going to jail, that's for sure. But you are coming with us and you're going to get charged with retail theft. You know, like I said, we because of that because of the D. >> If you're telling me the truth that there is no criminal history, then more than likely you're going to say, "Okay, you're done." You know, just charging me with misdemeanor, class A, misdemeanor, retail theft, and you're going back home. That's all it is. Now, for whatever reason, then it's not going to be found. >> Okay. Well, my name is not what name it is. I can change. Well, I'll give you my real name. I did. >> Now, that's even worse. >> Because I didn't want to get go to jail for years. >> Well, you know that if I run you regardless >> with with having your fingerprints, I would know exactly who you are. >> Additionally, although the woman claimed that her circumstances left her unable to afford alcohol for her father's funeral, officers discovered several details that contradicted her statement. What do you have under your driver's side seat? >> Uh my uh my my gun. >> No, I haven't registered. It's uh I got my point card and stuff in the car. I have my ID. >> Doesn't matter. You're supposed to have concealed carry. >> I have that [screaming] concealed carry. >> I have my everything. Yes. >> All right. That that ruler that Victor 2 ran supposed to belong it belongs to the person in custody here. You check the scene. She has a valid for it and concealed carry. She clearly had the means to purchase a firearm, yet she claimed to be in financial hardship. However, that firearm may also have been obtained improperly as discrepancies in the system records led officers to issue a warning to her. >> It says you have no concealed carry. >> I have the receipts. >> I don't care about ID. I have >> You got to have to have like, you know, like a driver's license. Just like that. It says concealed carry >> and my name is >> Does it say Foy or does it have Does it say um concealed carry? It say I have one with four and I have a second one concealed to carry. They I have two. >> Okay. [clears throat] >> But it's Do you see where I'm coming from? Doesn't make any sense because usually when we run someone's name, it's going to say yes, driver's license. Yes, for card. Yes, concealed carry. >> No for driver's license. Driver's license is no good. Yes, for >> I've never had a driver's license. >> Well, you've been you've been arrested before for that, right? For suspended driver's license. >> No, I had I never been arrested for I never got license in my name. Have you been stopped before driving? >> Yeah, I have. Got stopped one time. >> The woman was charged with retail theft, providing a false name during lawful detention and unlawful [music] firearm transport possession in a vehicle without valid concealed carry authorization. Retail theft established the base charge. The false name created an additional independent offense and the firearm issue escalated the situation further. In criminal cases, attempting to avoid consequences during an investigation often compounds liability rather than preventing
