Put me in cuffs. >> Yeah, I'm very nervous. >> Don't put my hand. I got a broken wrist. >> Sorry. Put your hand that >> Do not touch him. >> What are you doing? >> Gymnastics. >> Behind seemingly ordinary theft cases. Shoplifterss always find ways to justify their actions. Sometimes simply by shamelessly denying everything. >> If you watch the cameras, I gave him the court and I said, "Have a nice day. I don't want it anymore." Cuz that lady was ignorant. How are we arrested for stealing something we didn't take? >> Right. I understand. So, and that's so arrested >> or shedding tears to gain sympathy. >> I keep paying. >> Well, listen, you had opportunity to pay it. Now, >> I understand. >> Watch how things turn out for them in today's video when shoplifterss are shockingly calm while stealing a full cart at Walmart. First, a woman who did more than shoplift while locked inside a gas station. >> You didn't pay for any of it. Huh? So, did she have the knife in her hand at all? >> She did. She did. >> Like, she had this stuff in her hand. >> On the evening of September 1, a woman stole merchandise worth $89.28 from a store in Georgia. The amount was relatively small. Yet, she risked facing up to 10 years in prison. So, what exactly happened? First, here's what unfolded when the officer arrived at the scene. >> Did you pay for any of it? Huh? >> All right. She said something about you having a knife. What's with the knife? >> This kid. >> Don't touch it. >> Don't Don't touch it. Cuz if you touch it, we're going to have a whole another set of issues. Okay. >> All right. So, >> what's your name? >> Mine's Kiana. >> Kiana. So, did you not pay for any of this? >> Yes. Huh? >> Yeah. >> So, you didn't pay for any of it? >> Huh? >> Just like the rest of them. >> Just like the rest of them. So, you're saying nobody's paying for stuff? Is that what you're trying to say? >> Okay. >> Okay. Well, put your stuff right here on top of this cooler. Okay. >> Backpack and all. Okay. Backpack and all. All right. So, what's your name? >> How do you spell that? >> It's J I >> What's your date of birth? County 4. >> The woman seemed calm when facing the officer, don't you think? But before the officer arrived, she had already engaged in another alarming act. One she claimed was for protection. >> Why are you in here messing around? >> 72 central. It's going to be counted. So, you went up here and let her scan all the stuff and then just walked to the and then just walked out >> or tried to walk out before somebody locked the door on you. >> Okay. What were you doing with a knife? >> Uh, that was just for protect. I basically just walked from >> Yeah. >> So, what were you doing with the knife while you were here? >> Uh, that's just what I like walking across from where I was at my house. >> Okay. So, did you have it in your hands at all while you were in here? >> No, I just did it down right here. That's >> So, you got like $90 worth of stuff right here and you was trying to walk out the door with it. >> All right. You're welcome. >> I mean, I understand trying to eat, but >> $90 worth of stuff at the pantry. Where'd she go? She's at that cooler right there. I'm going go talk to her. Keep sitting here for a second. Like, tell me what was going on with her. >> Yeah. What was she doing? So she walk around getting her stuff and then she need ID like her. Then we call the wall. >> No, we can't. >> Mhm. >> And then she has this money that's sitting on the ATM showing like twirling around like getting close to the counter. I don't want her bar. I don't want to get in here no more. >> Do you want you want to press charges for the shoplifting? >> Yes. >> Yes. >> Yes. >> Okay. The knife the officer found was no small blade. In fact, possessing a weapon during a theft could potentially escalate the case from shoplifting to armed robbery. At this point, the store employee also provided her account of what had happened. >> She was like, when she got in here, did she do anything besides set it down? >> No, she just came in. She was driving and then she asked for I need your ID. She doesn't have ID cigarettes cuz I need your ID. >> Mhm. And like she got my sheet and she like her boyfriend had that knife in his hand when they walked in and then she picked up first and then it's freaking me out. >> So did she have the knife in her hand at all? >> She didn't. She did. >> Like she had this stuff in her hand. What you need, boss? >> Look how y'all It's seven. My bad. >> I'll transfer it. >> I'm sorry. >> No, you're good. >> Okay. So like did she have it in her hand when she had the stuff? >> No in her hand before she was grabbing more stuff. >> Okay. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. But like after she brought stuff up here, she didn't have >> bring it up. No. >> And she didn't have her hand over there. >> Okay. >> So So she laid over there before she brought stuff over here. She >> was grabbing other stuff. Yeah. She was trying to walk out the door. It was like $90 worth of stuff. >> Yeah. But because of the no ID because of the and for the cigarettes, she got upset and decided she was going to take everything. >> Yeah. >> Okay. At this point, the woman's arrest seemed inevitable. Yet, there was still no sign of remorse on her face for what had happened. >> Gotcha. You can go outside. You want to go outside or you want to stand in here? >> Go outside. >> All right. Come on. >> Get your bag. D. We can just go over here. You just sit on one push bumper for now till we get, like I said, till we get all your information back. >> I got your bag. Yeah. All that's our merchandise went right there. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. That's her backpack. >> Yeah. >> Want to write down a quick list of everything she's got in here so it can be on here. >> So, what was he doing in there? Go ahead. Have a seat. >> Go ahead. >> Right here. Hammond. Are they all free? Ham and cheese. >> Yeah. All three Skittles. >> Yeah. >> Got some Milky Way. There's one piece. >> That's what jumped it up. So, I'm not >> clear. >> The woman could face a shoplifting charge, while an armed robbery charge carrying a potential sentence of up to 10 years would depend on whether the evidence established the required elements of that offense. A small amount of stolen merchandise can still lead to serious consequences, especially when a weapon is involved. The decisive details matter, and failing to take responsibility can only make an already difficult situation worse. Next, these two suspects take their foolish behavior to another level with the officers. >> Well, you have a warrant >> as well. Hold on. Hold you. Um, that store at that family daughter, they got my phone. >> Okay. On the 13th of March 2026, two women were suspected of shoplifting at a Family Dollar in Illinois. They allegedly carried merchandise out of the store in garbage bins before leaving in a dark Nissan, prompting officers to approach the vehicle. >> Central 331, you only have one of the females here in the car. >> What's up? >> I said my friend. >> Where'd she go? something on. >> Yeah. You got your ID on you? >> Uh, no. My >> Did you just come from the Family Dollar? >> Oh, no. Uh, my friend, we just came from Fort City. >> You just came from Fort City? >> Yeah. >> Okay. You didn't come from the dollar store over there or whatever? >> No. Fort City. She >> Which store she going to? The Mexican place? >> Yeah. >> You just got a little bit of weed or something? >> Oh, >> what's that? >> Uh, cigarette. >> Okay. There's no weed in those weed packages there. >> Oh, yeah. I got you. You got your ID? >> I know. I don't have an ID. I give you my name. >> You don't have ID? >> I don't have my ID on me. >> You got your purse? You don't have an ID in there? >> I know. Only money. And that's it. >> What you doing way up here? >> Uh my friend. Is she in trouble or something? >> I don't know. We're going to get to the bottom of that. >> She'll be coming out anytime soon. >> Where'd your friend go? >> She said she was going to the ATM. >> She's going to the ATM? >> Yeah. >> In the taco place. I don't know if y I never been over here. This [ __ ] >> Okay. >> I don't know where the she did, but when I know she walked out. >> Have y'all seen her? >> What's up? >> Have y'all seen her? >> No, they're they're looking for her. She wasn't in the Mexican. >> The woman appeared relatively calm, but she kept deflecting the officer's questions toward the other woman. She even went as far as describing her friend in detail to avoid talking about herself. >> How old are you? >> I'm 22. >> 22. You left the house with no ID and no phone. >> Kind of weird, don't you think? My friend got a phone. I don't need When I leave the house, I ain't in the bathroom. No. >> What was she wearing? >> Uh my friend, she has on like a black jacket. >> A black jacket? >> Yeah. With like a 40 in the bud down. A wig. >> A what? >> A wig. >> She has a wig on. >> Yeah. Like a buzz down middle part. Her name should register to her car. This ain't a stolen car. >> Okay. Yeah. I don't know. >> I don't know what that license plate is. >> She just uh bought this car. >> What' you say your name was? Donna Wheatley. That's my maiden name. My I'm married to an African. So it's I don't know if you my maiden name going to pop up or my mar I think her name I went in the blood department. >> What's your friend's name? >> Yeah. I mean go ahead. Who is she to you? >> Uh this is my friend. I high school. >> Okay. >> We had we just got back close since my baby dad died. I don't >> Can you step out of the car for me? the she leaving. >> You want to just stand like right here? >> Yeah. Let me grab my >> You just leave it. Oh, your jacket. Can I take your jacket for a second? Can you stand right over here? I'll give you a jacket. >> Okay. >> Stand right here. Right here. I'll use mine. >> If y'all going to wait on her to come back before y'all try to tow her car. I ain't got no phone. >> Oh, I get back there. >> She was still smiling, unaware that it would soon fade as the officer's plan to arrest her began to unfold. >> I'll arrest it. Yeah. >> For what? >> I didn't take anything, sir. Why am I arrested, sir? >> Well, you have a warrant >> as well. I have a motion to see my judge. >> Okay. Well, emotion is not a confirmation that you don't have that warrant. None of us are nervous about it. >> Cuz I'm in handcuffs. I don't even >> I mean, I don't think it's the first time you've been in a handcuff. >> I know that. She just picked me up. >> What's going to be nervous about? >> She came back. >> She didn't come back cuz you guys just did a retail thrift when she saw the popo pull up. I literally stayed in the car. I didn't do anything. >> My coat hang. >> Yeah. Just wait a second. >> Which purse is it? >> My coat right there. >> Yeah. She also got some drugs in there. So >> this is crazy. >> It's crazy. >> Dang. >> So crazy. >> I think you got yourself into a little bit of this, wouldn't you say? >> I didn't do I mean, I did get in the car cuz she just picked me up from our house, but I didn't got none. I didn't do nothing. >> Put her around there. >> Yeah. Hang on. I'm going to take that purse off you. >> Okay. >> I know this is going to come as a huge surprise to you, but it's for shoplifting. I know it's crazy, right? >> For me? >> Yeah. I mean, you're who you said you are, right? >> Yes. Right. Yes. >> You've been checking everything. I just picked it up from my baby house. >> Okay. You want me to walk to this guy? >> No. No. We're going to wait here. >> Wait for a fe monster to come. Okay. >> Okay. I'm getting confused in now. So, >> she got to be around here. We checked up the store. Oh my god. >> Is this her car? >> Yeah. She had picked me up from my uh boyfriend from the hotel. >> A few minutes later, the other woman appeared quickly losing her composure and making the situation somewhat tense. >> Walk over here. Is this your car? Come on. Walk over here. Okay. >> That's all I'm doing. You come on here, >> right? Where my phone? >> I just gave you my phone. >> I don't know where your phone at. >> Hell, you just snatched it out my hand, lady. Remember before you got out the pot? You snatched my phone out my hand. Phone. I need my phone. I need to >> I don't know where my phone is, >> but I need to call. That's my phone in your hand, lady. I need to call and see what's going on. Now they trying to lock me up for nothing. I ain't even >> me. >> Yeah. What's your name? >> No. What? >> Pink. >> Your name is Pink. >> Yeah, I had messages. >> What's your name? >> What are my messages? >> Well, okay. >> No problem. >> Turn around. >> Oh, sorry. >> Hello. Right here getting marked up for no reason. >> So, she claims the car. >> I mean, she sucked down a half a pack of cigarettes while we were out here. >> All my kids are here. >> Tell him that I was >> not really sure. I believe it. and tell him to get some money off and buy me out of something. I don't know what's going on. Hello. >> Okay. >> What's going on is you're under arrest for a warrant and possession of cocaine and probably retail theft. >> I didn't do nothing with no retail. >> Okay. Well, we'll see about that. >> That's my phone. >> That's your phone? >> Yeah. I need my phone. >> Okay. Well, I'll grab it right now. >> I'll grab it. It's going to go back. >> And then my bag that I You seen on the other side. >> I'll take it with me. >> Can you cut the heat on? >> I am put on right now. Okay. Do you mind just going right here real quick? >> Please. >> Do you mind just going right here real quick? Sorry, I'm going the other way around. Give me a second. >> Thank you. >> In that brown little bank to the left. >> Back to the other woman. She was starting to look worried, too, but not about the trouble she was facing only about her own belongings. If she cared as much about other people's property, perhaps she wouldn't have been involved in theft in the first place. >> I got a question. So, what y'all going to do with the car? >> Yeah, it's been towed. >> And tow a tow truck to a toward. And what happened to it? >> Well, you'll have to get it out. Probably cost you like 1,200 bucks. $600 for the village of Oaklan and then a couple hundred to Wall Street. >> Hey, excuse me. I'm not going to hold you. Um, that store at that Family Dollar, they got my phone. >> Okay, I'll look into that for you. >> They do. It's in the store. It's a uh It's a iPhone 11. It's a It's I mean, it's iPhone 15. >> It's blue. >> All right. I'll go over there and look when we're done here. Okay. Look, can you not forget the paper with the number? >> I have it. I will bring it. I'm not I'm not lying to you. >> Yeah, I will. I have to go back there in a few minutes, but I'm going to go over there and >> Are you coming, too? >> No, I'm not coming. >> I'll go I'm going to go look for your phone. >> Okay. >> I think they have it at the store. >> Okay. >> Can I Can I Can you please um Can I hold the phone number? >> I feel Please. >> I'm going to give them to you. All right. Relax. >> So, you come. >> But I don't want you in my jail. Okay. So, like the sooner you're out of the jail, the better. You know what I mean? >> Lana Kyles was charged with one count of retail theft. Donnu faced charges of retail theft, possession of a controlled substance, possession of cannabis in a motor vehicle, and obstructing identification. Trying to avoid responsibility by shifting blame or making excuses will only make things worse. Respecting other people's property and being honest about your actions can save you from unnecessary legal trouble and consequences that follow you long after the incident. Next, if you're wondering whether shoplifterss who flee the scene can still be caught, take a look at these suspects. >> What did I What do I do? Why am I arrested? Ella, why am I being arrested? >> Why am I being arrested? >> She didn't know that it wasn't paid for yet. I didn't know she walked outside with the until I realized that and she said something. >> On the 27th of June, 2026, what seemed like an ordinary day at Rural King was disrupted by two women who pushed a cart full of merchandise out of the store without completing the payment process before fleeing in a vehicle. Officers were called to the scene and began investigating the incident based on the employees account. >> Do you have like a receipt or something that has everything that they >> No, cuz they when they they went through the line and >> bring everything up and they're like the guy was like, >> I'm going to go ahead and push it on out and the lady stayed back and then she couldn't pay for it. So, the transaction didn't go through. >> I've got another guy come back. He'll be able to pull up the video. >> Yeah. Well, that right there is not going to be cheap. >> Hey, Ray, can you go get that? Hillary's on the register. >> Yeah, I would say able to identify those females. >> I just know it was a pair of females the last time, too. Like, but like I said, I was closer. I don't even think I don't think so. I don't remember that part of it. >> I mean, it wasn't it wasn't nothing that we called in because like they tried it and like I I knew that game. So, >> like they didn't even walk out with the cart that time. So, >> can you go back to the video of them inside the store? >> Um, how much was it? 574 >> plus the hat out the door which what another $30 some dollars >> probably I don't know >> depend on the type of hat it was probably a area or something like a gooey or >> All right guys thanks for coming out we appreciate all the money $3.49 $49 for just for that. >> $4 not on 400 not on sale though. >> I mean it's $39. >> Yeah, go with that. >> Later that afternoon, the vehicle involved in the incident was located. Officers immediately blocked its possible exits to detain the suspects, leaving one of the main suspects visibly confused. >> What did I What do I do? Why am I arrested? >> Hello, why am I being arrested? >> Why am I being arrested? >> Stop talking. We'll talk about it. >> What did I do? >> We'll talk about it in just a thing. >> Stop. >> Pulling your hands back. >> We'll talk about it in just a moment. >> Cuz you won't shut up. >> You're being ignorant to me. >> Just shut up. It's easy. >> You got anything on your person that's going to focus me? Anything like that? >> No narcotics, guns, knives, dead bodies. >> You want to talk to the phone? >> Okay. I'm sorry. Okay. Okay. I'm sorry. >> So, first off, do you have anything illegal on your phone? No, >> no, >> no. >> Okay. Do you have pockets on this? >> No, >> no. Face the vehicle real quick. I'm just going to You really don't have pockets. >> Okay. I'm going to read you this before I ask you any questions. Okay. >> Okay. >> All right. Silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you. >> Am I arrested right now? What did I do? What did I do? >> But okay. So, >> listen. I'm working. >> I'm I'm working with the [ __ ] police. Please don't give me if you want to walk into your vehicle. We're going to take her back here with her. Despite her seemingly confused and innocent expression, the moment the officer mentioned her alleged offense, the woman appeared to understand exactly what was going on, raising some suspicious questions. >> So, where where were you at before you came here? >> Uh, driving. We went to Royal King. >> Okay. >> Nobody took We didn't do anything. >> Okay. So, we have we have camera footage of you and the other female with you walking out of there with the whole car. >> She We put it back. You saw they listen, we brought it back cuz I told her I told her to come. We went out to go get her to come back and I swear to God that's what we did. That's why the employee came with to come out there with me and I got I got her at the car on the video. It shows her in the carpet and I said, "Come on, nobody bring it back in." The car didn't work. Literally, that's it because I have I had my buddy's uh loyalty card. Okay. But so and we can call him and we can prove that that's the part I was trying to use and he didn't unlock it and my phone died and it was a whole bunch of But so but nobody took anything from Royal King. Nobody was stealing nothing from King. literally walked out there with him and we got the stuff and I gave it to him and I said, "Here, just keep it. We're going to go because the lady that was at the front desk pissed me off so bad being rude to me that I didn't want to stay in that store." Like, I get it. Judge me all you want for my history, but I'm literally trying to not be a bad person. >> Okay, >> I'm telling you the honesty god truth. Okay, now the problem is you left the final point of sale. >> I did not. I did not. And that lady knew that that that I need to go get my stuff from him and he was coming out with me. So, how am I in trouble for what the employee told me to do? >> Okay. The employees have their story. Okay. >> Can we please watch the camp? >> You are on camera going outside with the >> I didn't have the merchandise with me. Number one, she walked out. Number two, I walked out to go. I'm telling you right now. Can we please go there and talk to this lady? She looks That's what happened. That old that old guy, the cashier. That's what happened. I walked out. Watch the cameras. I watched I walked and walked and grabbed her. >> I mean, I walked and did. I swear to God. >> You watch the cameras. Talk to everybody. >> Please. I swear to No, I swear to God that's watched You didn't watch the cameras then because I walked and literally got the stuff and grabbed it and gave the cart back to the dude. If you watch the cameras, I gave him the cart and I said, "Have a nice day. I don't want it anymore." Because that lady was ignorant. >> That's not how that works. >> Well, she didn't know that it wasn't paid for yet. I didn't know she walked outside with the until I realized that and she said something. >> In her version of the story, the woman denied any wrongdoing while shifting the blame onto the other woman, repeatedly interrupting the officers as they tried to explain what had happened. >> She walked off the [ __ ] okay? Until I was busy figuring out how to pay for it like I was supposed to. Okay. So when she So when she uh went outside, I told him I need to go get her to go get the stuff. So we walked out to go get the stuff. I stopped her as she was putting the last thing in the car and I grabbed the cart and I gave it back to dude as the as the lady in the red red vest comes on. So if you watch the camera, that's what happened. >> Sure. That's what happened. How are we arrested for stealing something we didn't take? >> Right. I understand. So and that and I understand. >> So how am I arrested? >> Listen, I'll explain to you. Okay. So the problem is is when you left the store without it being paid for, >> I didn't leave the store without being paid for. I did not walk the mirror since I saw the store. How am I being arrested for something I didn't do? No, she washed the car out >> and then you know that it didn't go through and then >> I went and got her >> and then left in the car. >> I went and got I didn't leave in the car. I I gave him the merchandise back. >> But I gave them the I gave him the car back the point of sale with any merch. >> They're getting me arrested on a fluke. Are you kidding me? I have an ankle monitor. I didn't steal nothing. >> Please. Please. I didn't steal anything. >> Quick question. Quick question. What were you guys doing wrong? >> We were just walking around looking for something. What? >> We didn't steal anything though. Nobody stole anything. >> Taking a card. >> Yeah. And then my link card wouldn't work. >> Okay, that's not fair. I wasn't stealing anything though. He didn't steal anything. >> Let's just be 100%. So then when >> Nobody was stealing anything. >> Roberts drove by. Did he text you and tell you that the police is out here and then you guys ditched and came out? >> No. Nobody knew the police was here. My phone's dead. My phone's dead. Go look. My phone's dead on the dash. >> Look at my phone. I swear to God, I'm not lying. You're arresting me for nothing, dude. >> I just find it hard to believe. >> Nobody stole anything. >> All right, I'm going to >> Please, nobody stole anything. >> Stop tonight. >> Please, nobody stole anything. >> I need to unlock your car. >> Please don't be stole anything. >> Take a seat for him. >> Please, please don't call this. Please. >> Oh my god. Please. And my phone is >> She would certainly be suited for an auctioneer's job, given how she kept talking until the officer shut the car door. Even so, the officers remained unfased and had already begun piecing together what happened. >> She says, well, I'm assuming one female, the other girl in the pink walks it out and she's trying to pay. It doesn't go through. Phone's dead. Nothing works. She leaves. Cashier comes and confronts some Oh, here's the Gotcha. Um, I'll ask her one more question. Maybe she can pull up her banking app and see if she has $700 on it. >> Fair. >> Just to see. >> Yeah. you know, and then and then she's because she said that her her lean card in here didn't work either. So, >> it didn't work there. >> It's convenient that both cards you're trying to use at two different businesses uh don't work. So, >> devil's advocate. >> Is it her card that she tried to use? >> Not sure. What other female say? >> Uh I haven't talked to her yet. Okay. >> Can we please call the I work for them, please? Can we please call the same police I work for them? said to her understanding that uh she thought the item the hot was paid for, but if it's not paid for, she did have no clue about it. So, >> I'm sorry. Can you repeat that? That last part? >> Yeah. She said if she if it's not paid for, she had no clue about it. So, but >> well, apparently neither one of them had any clue about it. So, >> she is Miranda if you want to talk to her. >> Besides the two women, there was also a man driving the vehicle. The question was whether he had any involvement in the incident. So officers began investigating based on his account of what happened. >> So what what was the deal with roll king? >> Ro king? I don't know. I they asked they asked me if I take them to roll king. They had to get some feed for a dog or something like that. And uh then uh they came out and they didn't have anything. They had like a basket and they she just pushed the basket away. We had got into it with one of the ladies there or whatever. >> I was like okay. And she said well can you go by Walmart? She said we got to go by there and get a couple things from there. And I sat out here for like I don't know 30 45 minutes to see waiting on them to come outside and they just come out and then I did this. >> Okay, I got you. Do you have any idea why they didn't have anything at rule king? >> I have no clue. I didn't even ask him. I was like you guys argue with the lady. I mean I figured it was just discrepancy with something or I don't know. >> Did you see the cart that they wheeled out and then gave back? >> I didn't I didn't pay no attention to that. I was on my phone. >> Okay. Well, basically you're going to be leaving here alone today. Both those females are going to be going with us. >> Okay. >> And we're going to be leaving. >> What did they take? I mean, >> uh, right around $600 to $700 worth of items. >> Holy [ __ ] >> That were not paid for. So, >> that that's why all this started. >> That's why we're here. >> So, bear with me. Sit there a little bit longer. We'll be right back with a thing. >> In the end, the two women were charged with felony retail theft while the driver was released because officers found insufficient evidence to charge him. Denying responsibility and blaming others won't make the evidence disappear. When a suspected theft involves multiple people, investigators must examine each person's role carefully rather than assume everyone is guilty simply because they were together. Next, this woman puts together an outfit by stealing clothes from multiple stores. I could pay it. >> Well, listen. You had opportunity to pay it now. >> No, it came No, it came out of my bag. I just took that stuff because I'm matching a dress. I was going out to dinner. >> On December 27, officers were dispatched to a shopping mall in Daytona Beach, Florida to meet a woman being held in the lost prevention office. She was reportedly caught concealing merchandise to steal it. Upon approaching her, her remorse seemed evident from the tears on her face. So, >> I've got a 1012 >> at this point, but I was waiting on you. >> Um, she had all that merchandise on your bag. >> They gave it back. >> How much? That's not how that work. >> I'm going to go get you the footage from camera room >> and his statement. Be right back. >> I keep paying. >> Well, listen. You had opportunity to pay it. Now >> I understand. >> Not my problem. >> I can't I can't help you out of this. They like to prosecute here. So I can't help you out here to leave and go to court for >> You're going to jail. You'll go to court in the morning, but you're going to jail. >> Her ID is in her purse, so I wasn't sure. >> So she hasn't been written or anything yet? Yeah. >> Can I go in your purse? >> Well, you're under arrest now. >> Then I She needs to sign for me. >> Black pants. >> Well, I'm going give you her uh her name and stuff, but I don't, you know. >> Well, I need her to sign.

The officer then informed her of the situation. >> Already had one. >> Okay. What it come to? 800. >> Yeah, >> you got a felony. >> This will be a felony. >> Gotcha. >> Yeah, >> this will be a felony because it's over. Let me see. 818. >> Yeah, it is. >> It was $7.99.

So, stand up. >> Like I said, this is trace amounts and I'll figure that out in a minute. And I'll be honest if I tell you I'm going to charge you with it or not, okay?

A few dollars can make the difference between a misdemeanor and a felony. So, the value of stolen merchandise matters. No amount of tears or excuses can undo the consequences of theft, and cooperating with law enforcement is always a better choice than trying to avoid responsibility.

I'm an American. >> Put my hand I got a broken wrist. >> Okay, we do that. >> Stop. Don't. >> On the 23rd of July 2025, officers responded to a store where a woman was causing a disturbance and showed no intention of leaving. The officer was already familiar with her, but strangely when he approached, she denied everything. Hey, Kim. >> My name ain't Kim. >> All right. So, what's your name, Kim? >> If you don't know me, why do you got a problem with me? >> Well, cuz I met you a few times, Kim. >> You don't even That's not my name.

Let my arm go. >> You're not an American. You're not commission. I don't go by nothing you say.

Thank you guys. >> Thank you. >> In the end, the woman was charged with retail theft, resisting arrest, and disorderly conduct. Your actions have consequences, and refusing to cooperate with law enforcement can turn a manageable situation into a much more serious one. Staying calm and following lawful instructions is a far better choice than creating further conflict.

It's ridiculous. >> All right, problem solved. >> Slice. Slice. Mother. >> It turns out the officer was the one who finally ended the phone call. And with her phone no longer in her hand, the confrontation only became more chaotic, drawing even more attention to herself. >> Hi. HOW YOU DOING? IT'S WE COME AND TAKE IT ON THE TOILET BOWL.

I'm saying cheese or nothing. >> On the 30th of April 2026, police received a call from Target reporting two women, Ruby May Jennings and Ashley Mack, who had allegedly left the store with six children and nearly $1,000 worth of unpaid merchandise. They may have had a reason for bringing the children along, especially when officers moved to arrest both mothers. >> I got kids back to me. Back to me.

He's getting out. >> Listen to me. I'm going to take care of that one. >> I got you. The only reasons is to hold this baby. >> I can't call my mom to come get her. >> Hold on.

I'm asking Max. >> Hey, are you going to be able to come over here and pick up these kids? >> This girl is really driving me crazy. Sorry, but she is driving me insane. >> So, the issue the issue we have is Target wants to press charges for theft and I have all these babies and I really don't want to call DCF. >> Clearly, this was no longer a simple shoplifting arrest. The two mothers had made things more complicated while the large amount of merchandise recovered was also raising questions. >> Oh, that's my um stepdad. I about to say, "Mom, you got to um get my purse and get the money out of there so you could be able to bum me out." >> You rather me you rather give the money to mom. I saw the money in the purse.

I don't know. >> Okay. >> Target. >> Okay. So, there's other stuff in the car that got other tags on it. Where that stuff came from? It's other stuff in the car that got tags on it, too. >> Did it come from Target? >> It didn't come from Target. I'm asking you where it came from, though. I'm telling you, if it didn't come from Target in this situation about Target, then >> I mean, but I don't want Target also to say that that stuff belong to them if it don't >> because some of the stuff don't have tags on it. Some of it do have tags on it.

So, you don't know where stuff came from? >> That don't have nothing to do with Target. >> One mother denied that some of the merchandise came from Target.

What about the stuff that was in the back seat? >> That's Target. >> Some of the stuff don't have Target tags on it, though. So, I I just don't want them to say that stuff came from them. If it didn't come from them, if it came from another store, then we need to give it back to the right store. You don't know where that stuff came from? Okay. Were you at any other stores earlier or y'all only hit this store? >> No. >> Okay. Y'all didn't go to Marshalls today. >> There's one university. >> You're not sure or no? >> Oh, no.

Do whatever you want to do. >> I'm I'm going to stay here and watch what you going to do. But >> the kids cannot leave in that car. >> Ruby May Jennings and Ashley Mack were charged with grand theft and contributing to the delinquency of a minor. Bringing children along did not make the consequences of shoplifting disappear and it only created more complications for everyone involved. >> The sensor comes shoes with either the scissors or the fire. >> And that's fine. Again, you didn't make any attempt to pay for any of these items. Correct. I like you didn't because you didn't pay for them, right? >> On the 25th of June 2024, officers responded to a report from Nordstrom that a student and her mother had stolen a large amount of merchandise. Upon arriving, the loss prevention officer immediately pointed out the signs of their shoplifting. >> Hey, how you doing? >> This was recovered off of her purse. Um, she had scissors on her. They took makeup, the handbag and the shoes. Okay. >> They remove the sensor from the shoes with either the scissors or the pliers. >> Gotcha.

Uh you separate the stuff real quick. >> It's all going to be together. They're getting charged all together. >> Yeah, that's Yeah, that's >> Meanwhile, other officers separately interviewed the loss prevention officer to obtain a firsthand account of what he had seen on surveillance cameras. >> Can you just tell us what happened? So, I was doing uh for surveillance in the subject um when I saw the subject, the one wearing the blue shirt and blue jeans, the older subject approach the makeup area, started selecting numerous makeup items. Um I began surveillance because of how quickly she selected it. Uh she placed on top of her purse and then she went and she selected a black Kate Spade handbag and put that in the shopping cart that she had with her. Um she then while in the accessories department all the makeup into the purse um it was a blue purse I believe and then they uh exited the department both both subjects uh went into men's shoes. The older subject that still had the purse in the cart attempted to remove a sensor couldn't do it. So >> do you know what she used to try to remove it >> at that time? No. >> Okay. >> Um they both went into women's shoes. >> So she was just trying to pull it off. Okay. Gotcha. >> They both went into women's shoes. Um the younger subject pulled a object. There was a silver um object out of her purse, gave it to the mom. She clipped the sensor off of the purse, gave it back to the daughter, the tool, and then she put it back in her purse. >> Okay. >> Um then she took the purse and she put in the brown Nordstrom shopping bag that the daughter had. >> Okay. Did they bring that in with them? Do you know? >> Um they had it on them when I started watching. So I believe so. Immediately afterward, the daughter was separated for a private interrogation. It seemed as though she was about to confess, but it quickly became clear that she had other plans. >> For me, like my mom, it's probably like my first time. So, I was saying like for me and my mom, there was like our first time. So, today all I did was like the makeup and even like that like I wanted to buy it. So, they were saying like a security thing. That wasn't the case. And like if you look in the that bag has nothing in it. So what I came in was to return. That's all. So it was her makeup and the slides. I'll uh get purse. But like if you guys want me to pay like I'll pay for everything right now. That's like what my mom was saying as well cuz truly like it was a mistake cuz we have like never done anything before and even with the the kitchen ses and everything cuz our house is like so new and we were going to uh HomeG goods to buy the painting and we removed like a few of the paintings and everything and that was the only reason to hang them and stuff. I have literally not used them for anything like the security tags what they were talking about and even like the woman inside like she she knows and she's like I she saw it that there was no security tag or none of those things were like used to cut anything. >> Okay. So from what I understand you said that you come in you came in here to return. >> Would you have believed her story so easily? The officers certainly didn't. After reviewing the surveillance footage they began exposing the woman's lies one by one. So, when I watched that video and you came in without a pair of shoes, >> you didn't come into the store with a pair of shoes. >> Yes, I came in with Yeah, >> that's not what the video shows. >> No, I'm telling you. I'm being truthful. >> Okay. So, you come in with a pair of shoes. >> It went to my Nordstrom bag like at the >> So, you come in, you say with the pair of shoes, right? You said you guys went and looked at the makeup section, correct? >> Yeah. >> Okay. So, did you select the makeup or did mom select the makeup? >> Mom. >> Mom. Okay. So, mom selected the makeup. Do you know exactly what she took? >> Not sure. >> Okay. Was the makeup for you? >> Do you mind going around for me? >> Okay. >> Just give us a minute, please. So, she selected the makeup. Who was the makeup for? >> Not for me. >> It was not for you. But you knew she was taking the makeup. >> Yeah. I had I had a first like we >> did you guys discuss that she was going to take the makeup? >> No, nothing like this. Like our intention was to buy everything like even even the bags cuz we always I come in I always buy and everything. >> She never done it before. >> She grabs the makeup, right? Yeah. >> Where does she put the makeup? >> It's on the cart. >> On the cart? >> Yeah. Okay. >> The whole time. >> She didn't put it in her bag >> in I think in the last moment >> that she put it in the bag. >> Her purse. Correct. Not the purse that you got from the store, right? >> Okay. So, she puts it in her purse. After she puts it in her purse, >> actually, I'm not sure cuz I think it's I'm I'm not sure from where I think it's the bag either or that cuz I didn't see >> That's fine. So, you guys are at the makeup section. Once you leave the makeup section, where do you guys go? >> Uh, we were just checking the shoes. >> Okay. Which shoes? Men's or women's? >> We checked the men's shoes. >> Okay. So, you're in the men's shoes section. What happens next? Uh, we just take a pair of slides just as a gift and yeah, that's it. >> The confusion on the woman's face only made it harder for her to hide the truth. Moments later, the officers gave her one more chance to come clean. >> Yes. >> Were you thinking about paying for the items that you guys had? >> That's what we had first in our mind to >> Okay. So, you were thinking about paying for it. Okay. So, what happened between thinking about paying for it and leaving without paying? >> Did you guys have a conversation saying, "No, I'm not I'm just not going to pay or what happened there?" It wasn't like my like I took anything. I It was mostly like my mom. >> It was just your mom that took everything. >> But I was there. So I I like I'm >> So you knew that she had took the items. Okay. So you never got in line. You never attempted to pay for the items? >> I was having a conversation with her like about the returning the shoes. >> Okay. >> Cuz And then I just we walked out. >> Okay. So you never attempted to pay for the items. You never got in line to pay for them. You just left without pay. We were having the conversation about like let's pay like before putting anything in about returning and cuz we hadn't put anything before. It was at the last minute. >> Okay. So, you had a conversation about paying for the items and then you guys decided not to pay for them, right? So, you walked out the door, you passed all points of sale, didn't attempt to pay for anything. Correct. >> At the last one, like we we wanted to pay. >> Well, you didn't. Correct. Okay. Got it. So, you got outside the store and that's when the loss prevention officer stopped you. Correct. Okay. Let's talk about all of the screwdrivers, clippers, all that stuff, the scissors. >> What's all that for? >> Okay, so even if you see the bag, none of the items had any security tags or nothing. Cuz >> I can tell you right now, and we're being honest, and I'm going to level with you because this isn't my first day, right? >> All of the high-end bags that they have here all have security tags. >> It did. I'm going to tell you, it did have a security tag. So, I'm Listen to me. Don't talk over me, okay? >> If you paid close attention, she only admitted those details after the officer specifically asked about them. She never voluntarily confessed to what she had done. The same went for cutting off the security tag as she seemed determined to minimize her responsibility. >> So that mom's holding the bag, she tried to cut the wire for the uh anti- theft or anti-shoplifting device when you guys were at a different section in the store. When you guys went to the shoe section, you handed her clippers, she cut it, and you guys left. Is that accurate? >> No. The It's It's the shoe area where we took it, but none of the things were cut. Like, I'm being completely honest. That bag did not have anything in it. Like, no security. >> You've been honest with me thus far, so I'm It's a little frustrating for me when you're lying to me about cutting the the anti- theft device off of it. >> I'm telling you, like I have not. >> Okay. the entire time. I'm being honest, like if you check, that bag did not have any type of tag in it. >> I'm just so that you're aware, >> he's saying he watched you guys do it, right? I have video of you guys doing it, right? So, you're saying you didn't do it, which that's fine. You have every right to say you didn't do it. >> But I'm being really honest, too. >> Okay. >> The bag did not have it. >> Okay. And that's fine. Again, you didn't make any attempt to pay for any of these items, correct? >> I like >> you didn't because you didn't pay for them, right? >> Right. >> Yes. >> Okay. I understand. >> You said that you've done this before, correct? But just with makeup. >> No, no, no. I'm saying it's my first time. I'm saying it's my first time with I have done the makeup thing like the makeup. You have taken makeup before. >> Emmer, you said that to me. You said that you've done you've taken makeup before. >> No, I'm talking about that certain makeup. That's what I'm saying. Like my mom has never done anything. >> So mom's never shoplifted before. You're saying you've taken makeup properly? >> I'm saying that the first thing I went to the makeup section and she chose everything. So I'm saying the makeup was like the first idea. Like that's where we went the bag and everything. You planned on buying it. >> Okay. But you didn't. >> Yeah. >> So yeah, your intent was to never buy anything. Correct. >> In the end, the student and her mother were charged with grand theft. Crime often begins with small lies, but those lies only make the consequences far worse. Taking responsibility early is always better than trying to hide the truth. >> I'm not sucking that. They humiliated me. Please don't do this. I'm not doing no whole activities for food no more. >> Look at my DNA. You a joke too. You a pedophile and a blaster to in a uniform. >> On the 23rd of August 2025, officers boarded a bus after receiving a report that a woman who had allegedly stolen food from a Dollar General had fled onto it. As soon as they approached her, she denied the accusation and the situation quickly became tense. >> Can you send us that on Britain? We're going to have that girl. She's walking on bus. I have a receipt, sir. >> Come out here. So, I have a receipt. >> Okay. Come out here. >> I'm not sick. They They humiliated me. Please don't do this. >> I'm not doing no whole activities for food no more. >> Listen, can you just come out here? >> I ALREADY PAID FOR MY FOOD. >> Just come out here so we can >> They're not going to keep punching on me, sir. I'm sitting right here. I didn't do nothing wrong. I'm not going to keep going through this. They keep calling the police, putting me out in the streets. >> Okay. >> I didn't do nothing wrong. I didn't break THE LAW. YOU'RE NOT ABOUT TO KEEP TAKING food from me and giving me eggs. >> That if you paid for it, that's not good. >> I'M NOT GETTING OFF THE BUS. The bus came. >> No, we have to talk to you outside of THE BUS. >> I'M NOT TALKING TO YOU. I ALREADY been battered. I got better on the Citra. >> Dear, listen. I This is going to go two ways. You're going to get off the bus willingly. I'm going to put you in handcuffs and I'm going to force you off the bus. >> Why do I have to get off the bus? DON'T DO THE ROSA PARKS ON ME. >> We're trying to investigate something. Well, I just told you I PAID FOR MY FOOD. COME OUT HERE and then put handscuffs on me ANYWAY CUZ I'M BLAST. >> THAT'S NOT TRUE. >> YOU'RE GOING TO DO IT. You >> Sorry. I'm sorry. >> You're okay. Come out here. >> All right. You said you got a receipt. >> Officers successfully persuaded the woman to step off the bus so the other passengers would not be affected. However, once outside, her uncooperative attitude only made the situation even more difficult. >> Can you show me it? >> Where's the receipt? >> I'm moving fast. I I paid for my food. >> Okay. >> They sometimes give us the receipt. I I I got everything in the bag. >> Okay. So, where's the receipt? You said you have one. >> I know that I have one. You just I don't know if I left it on the bus and I sat down. I just got off like y'all told me to get off. >> I got you. >> I don't know if I dropped anything. I'm not >> I'm just scared. They keep doing this. >> I'm swearing and yelling, but every time I go to sleep, it's like they want me to stay up on drugs and every the people in that building. I go to sleep. >> What building? >> The number building. They called the police on me earlier and I don't got nowhere to >> We weren't out here with you earlier. Okay. >> They keep trying to make ME GO TO JAIL. I'M TIRED. I'M TIRED OF GOING to jail and they keep spending my social security income. >> Okay. All right. That we just we're just trying to >> I went to the store. I paid for my food. I got my ID, my federal ID to get on the aircraft. I can't get on the aircraft because every time I go to the ATM, it say the funds are not available or or it won't say the uh blanket total amount on my card. But I swipe it in with the magnetic strip to pay for my food. I got $950 stolen from me. The man always let me come in and spend what I need. I keep cigarettes there. >> Got the dollar. >> Yeah. But I'm not I'm not going to do derogatory things to get food. So, I give him what I give them and I leave out the store. My [ __ ] is back. >> My My receipt probably was on the bus or when I >> The woman insisted that she had done nothing wrong. However, when officers asked her to go with them, she refused, raising the question of what she so worried about. >> How about How about we do this, dear? How about you just get in the back of our car? >> Um, >> can you take me to the shelter? >> Look, look, we're going to go We're all three of us. >> Look, cuz he's going to give you hearay and then I'm going to go to jail because y'all always put me in jail cuz I talk to y'all. If I don't talk to y'all, y'all don't put me in jail. >> We're just trying to investigate. So, >> I already He's They are womanizers. >> Well, listen. IF YOU >> THEY GET JOBS and they womanize people. They make us do the stupidest [ __ ] >> We just We have to hear both sides of the story. >> They just did this at the building with me with the police uniforms. >> I was going to say we weren't out there so we don't know that. >> I'm not going to keep going through this. It's like y say face your fears. Go back to your baby dad that punched your eye. Y'all just LET A MILITARY SERVANT punch me on the chapel stairs. I don't want to keep talking to them. Every time I put a wig on, they do this. >> So, are you going to get in our car or not? You told me to get off the bus when I was going to my house. >> Yes. But now we have to go to the Dollar General and investigate. >> You know what I'm going to do? Since they don't want me to eat and get full-blown eggs, just take it to him and tell him for me as a woman and like if I was your mom, she's not here for groceries anymore. >> She repeatedly changed the subject, talking non-stop so the officers could not explain the situation. Not wanting the encounter to drag on any longer, the officers decided to take action. >> Just put your >> Okay. No, I'm not. What did I say wrong? I was being truthful. WHAT DID I SAY? I'll get in the car. I'll do whatever you say again. >> No. Please tell me. Look. Can I put your hands behind my hands? >> Every time y'all do this. EVERY TIME Y'ALL LIE, Y'ALL ME EVERY TIME. Why do y'all do this? And I TRUST Y'ALL TO PROTECT ME AND MY KIDS. And then y'all traffic my kids in that building. >> See how you looking? If they do this to you, >> look at what? >> I'm not nothing to you, right? After I suck, got nothing for groceries. >> I didn't say anything like that. >> Now you putting your 24 karat gold on my arms. >> I want to sit here and say a prayer. >> You need to pray for me before you put me in inside of my stand up. >> See how you talked to me? This what they just did to me. Stand up >> and I gave you my voice. >> I gave you my voice. Like I gave you my IN MY MOUTH. >> YOU'RE ABOUT to catch another charge. catching any charge when I'm doing everything you tell me to do. >> You told me to get off the bus, sir. Don't abuse me. This is what they do. They people, they traffic us. >> THEY TRAFFIC US AND THEY USE YOUR UNIFORM TO PUT ME IN JAIL AND DO IT TO ANOTHER PERSON. >> IS THERE a unit with a rap? >> Why aren't you listening to me LIKE I'M YOUR SISTER? >> WELL, NOW NOW YOU JUST caught a >> I didn't catch no charge. YOU GOT HANDCUFFS ON ME. You me I go to ANOTHER COUNTRY YOU CUT MY HANDS OFF YOU DO THE SAME STUFF THE to her own resistance had led to the situation she was now in yet she showed no signs of stopping. She repeatedly portrayed herself as the victim while her behavior became increasingly erratic. >> Y break my arm. PUNCH ME LIKE THAT. I suck on you to just stay on the ground. Don't you do that [ __ ] >> too. You a too my DNA. You a too. YOU A PEDOPHILE and a molester to in a uniform. Never again. >> Never again. Never. >> I can't even read a Bible no more. THEY TOOK MY BIBLE. MOVE THAT STRAP. >> THEY TOOK EVERYTHING FROM ME. THEY CAN'T STOP. AFTERWARD, a group of officers returned to the store to notify the employees and gather additional information from their side. >> And she said, "Hey, what's up? Came to me." And then walked into our back room. >> Did she take anything? >> She took a bag a bag full of cereal and stuff. >> Okay. >> But walked when she walked in our back room. I didn't even know she walked in our back room until my boss literally looked like she walked into the back room. >> Okay. Do you want charges? >> Yes. >> Okay. Um, are you able to like total up how much she took? >> Um, my boss can. Well, we we didn't bring product with us. >> Yeah. And they're ripped, so I'm not going to >> CJ, I need you. >> Okay. >> So, what what got me is when she walked in and right before she walked out, all she said is, "I want to suck." >> And then she walked right out. >> Fantastic. I think that's what everyone says. >> Okay. And then do you guys have video of it? Okay. >> Yes. But uh my b my boss told me that she won't be able to be back in until Monday. And then she said that she's got to be the one to pull up that video. >> Oh, you guys can't see the videos? >> Nope. >> They didn't arrest me. Long as I'm drinking and sitting down, but the moment I wanted to eat and fill myself and nourish myself and take care of myself, now I'm tied down with all this. >> We happened to meet in that aisle and then we both thought it was strange actually. It's like, well, wait, it's like this lady's got a bag here actually in the aisle. And then he even mentioned to me, he's like, You find that odd too? I'm like, "Yeah, >> she already had the bag." Just >> Yeah, >> because Yeah, cuz like I said, I saw I first noticed her back there in the freezer aisle and like Yeah, she had a bag cuz she had some stuff and then she was putting it in a bag and I'm like that doesn't look right though actually. It's like, you know, something told me it's like yeah, this ain't right. So, yeah, because that Yeah, cuz she did mention too. It's like I need my bread, you know. I need my bread. In the end, the woman was charged with theft, resisting arrest, and assault on a police officer. A single bad decision can often be corrected, but refusing to take responsibility and escalating the situation through resistance and violence can turn a minor offense into multiple criminal charges with far more lasting consequences. >> I think I forgot to scan the the fish ball. >> What makes What makes you think you forgot to scan that? >> I forgot it was in there. >> I forgot it was in there. So, if it hasn't been scanned and you go past the final point of sale, they won't let you purchase it. >> On the 1st of June, 2025, police approached a family right after they finished their shopping trip. There would have been nothing unusual about it if the father hadn't been caught skip scanning merchandise. Here's what happened next. >> And the car is okay. I wasn't trying to steal anything. You take a seat for me. >> You take a seat for me, man. >> Move this just a little bit more. >> All right. So, we don't know what's going on. So, can you just sit down for me? >> And then I got to read you something real quick. >> I wasn't trying to steal anything. >> Okay, that's fine. Just let me read this for you real quick. Okay. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can be used against you in court or in other proceedings, you have the right to a lawyer for advice before we ask you any questions. Had to have him present during questioning. If you cannot afford a lawyer, one will be appointed for you free of any cost to you for any questions if you wish. Do you understand those? >> Yeah, I was trying to >> with those rights in mind. Do you wish to speak with me? >> Huh? >> You wish to answer my questions? >> After the officer read him his rights, the man seemed to feel more pressure about the situation, prompting him to start admitting to some things he claimed he had forgotten. I mean, I would like to scan them cuz >> Okay. Was there anything that was not scanned for or scan paper? >> I think I forgot to scan the the fishing ball. >> What makes you think you forgot to scan that? >> Cuz when I was scanning it, I don't know if it danged or anything like that. >> You have your license on you, sir? >> Some form of ID? >> No, it's in the car. Okay. I got I'll take it here. But that's about it. And I just forgot to scan it. And I'm coming cuz I'm coming back. >> You're what? I'm coming back to come get it. Cuz maybe maybe I didn't scan it. Maybe I didn't want to roll back to my car and get the money. But maybe that's about it. >> Okay. So, you know, you didn't scan that, but you were going to come back and scan it. >> Yeah. >> No, no, no. Go get the money and come back. >> I forgot it was in there. >> I forgot it was in there. >> So, if it hasn't been scanned and you go past the final point of sale, they won't let you purchase it. >> Okay. >> Can I get your first name? >> Franklin. Jeez. Okay. >> Yep. So these this you'll talk to this officer. He's sorry. >> You going to sit down for me cuz we're >> But the officer wasn't convinced by the man's excuse that he had simply forgotten. The more closely they examined the merchandise, the more suspicious his explanation became. So >> right now it looks like something got separated over there. Has not been on the receipt. >> That's paid for it. Well, we're past that right now >> because she don't drive and I'm the only one that drives to go home. >> I'm not taking you to jail. That's what you >> And then I didn't know what was in there. I knew it was in there. I just thought it forgot. >> You didn't know what was in I don't understand >> the What about all the other stuff? It's not been scanning like the >> Capri Suns and the cheese balls and pizzas and Gatorade. You know why those weren't scanning? all the stuff on the chairs. You know why I stop button? >> I I know I stand. Didn't I? I had that little thing and I was just pressing it as like oh, you know, and I kept saying ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding. >> No, I wouldn't do that cuz my wife just got a job here. You know what I'm saying? >> Mhm. >> We all make mistakes. We're all human. Yeah. >> So, has this happened before? >> No. >> Okay. So, if we look at your cards, we're not going to see this happen ever before. >> What? This one? >> No. So, this type of behavior, right, where stuff wasn't scanned, we're not going to see that. >> I don't think so. I don't What we'll do is we'll search the car. We'll verify that this behavior doesn't continue. Okay. >> No, it's not going to happen again. Okay. >> Well, I'm saying not again, but previously, cuz we have access to every purchase that you've ever made previously. >> Okay. >> The family was reportedly shopping for 3 hours, so they should have known exactly what they had carefully selected. Yet, with many other unpaid items still being found, the man continued pleading for mercy without any shame in front of his family. >> Did you guys get the Marlo sweet tea and the Kinder egg here today, too? >> Uh, I think so. >> Okay. If not, I'll pay for it right now cuz I don't know. Remember when I was scanning? What? >> Okay. Can you put everything else that I forgot to scan? Can I pay for it? >> Yeah. >> Look. So, once you walk past the final place, oh, and it hasn't been purchased, they they know you can purchase it again. Okay. The grapes are on there, too. And >> you guys have never been stopped before. >> No. >> How much do you know? How much is a fishing boat? You know, >> I'm I'm not sure. I grabbed it. I was going to pay for it for real. All right, guys. I just I'm just asking a question. I forgot that was in there. Okay. I was just >> All right, man. I got to take a picture of you. Okay. Just talk about me, please. >> All right. So, what's your name? >> Sarah. >> Sarah. Okay. Sarah. So, obviously, you know, you work here, right? Um, so the issue today is you're involved with somebody that has been stealing from here. Just this instance today, whether or not you agree involved or not, I have to do the same thing. >> So, and just so you guys are aware, none of those guys. >> Wait, I scan, didn't I? I I didn't scan all that. 720. >> I get another picture. >> At this point, his wrongdoing was clear, but instead of arresting him, the officer made a different decision to deal with what he had done. >> Franklin, what's your phone number? >> Yeah. >> All right. Don't worry. >> So, this is a notice to appear for retail theft on July 7th at 9:00 a.m. at the Pavle County Courthouse in Pacin. What if I can't make a warrant? >> If you don't show up, you'll get a warrant, but you can call ahead of time if you have like >> Where is that at? Cuz I don't know where >> Pasad County Courthouse. >> Oh, right there on Okay. All right. >> Court Street. Yeah. >> Um, you can call ahead. Like this is like over a month away. >> But yeah, you can call out because I >> forgot to scan everything. >> That's up to them. I just give you this. You go talk to the judge and he decides from there. >> Okay. finished. Okay. >> All right. So, I just need you to sign here. It's not admitting guilt. It's just saying that I read that to you. >> Okay. >> And do you have your copy of the press? >> That is your copy. >> I got a copy of this, but I don't have a copy of the test. >> Oh, right there. >> I just want to make sure you have >> that been explained. >> Yeah. Got all the things. >> Yeah. I got pictures. >> We should be You guys are down with them. You guys are done with them, Sierra? >> You're done with them? >> All right, you guys are good to go. Okay. >> All right. >> In the end, Franklin Wormowski was charged with one misdemeanor count of retail theft under Illinois law. Trying to avoid consequences by claiming you simply forgot to scan an item becomes much harder to defend when multiple unpaid items are discovered. Honesty and cooperation are always a better choice than continuing to make excuses when the evidence says otherwise. You've activated our inventory control system. Please return to your cashier. And >> I didn't I didn't steal anything. >> On the 11th of December 2022, police received a report from CVS pharmacy about a woman who refused to leave even though the store was about to close. She was also quite familiar to the staff as she had previously come there to steal. And it appeared that this time was no different. First, here's what happened when the officers arrived at the scene. That's the basket right there. >> Okay. >> And she has to buy that stuff. >> Oh, how's it going? >> Good. So, sounds like the store doesn't want you here. So, you're going to have to >> always >> Okay. >> Why is every store cop? >> What's it? >> Hey, what? >> Listen. What? >> Put your stuff down and you got to leave. >> Yes. or else I'm going to escort you out. >> Oh my god. >> Put your stuff down. >> No, I don't want to. >> I didn't ask you. I'm telling you. Put your stuff down. >> Oh my. >> We're leaving. >> I'm telling you to do what I already told you to do. Grab Give me this stuff. >> You have activated our inventory control system. Please return to your cashier. >> The store's alarm went off as the woman walked out. Clearly, this was not a good sign for the officers. At this point, there was little chance she would be able to leave so easily. >> I take >> Come here. >> Come here. >> Does that mean she took something? >> No, I didn't steal anything. I didn't. >> I didn't. I >> Stop. I didn't steal anything. >> Then why is there alarm system going off? >> My bag. >> We are. We're going to >> Okay, but I didn't. >> That's all my I bought. >> But I left my purse in there. >> Okay, we can get that here in a second. >> What the are you doing? >> Stop. >> Don't you do that. >> Stop. You're going to be in cuffs. You're going to >> No, I'm not. >> Yes, you are. >> What the >> Stop. >> I will kill you. >> That's fine. >> Yeah, they ain't going to kill you anymore. >> Okay, >> what are you doing? >> No. >> Okay, we're done. Her resistance only suggested that she was trying to hide something, but that was not a major concern for the officers. They had already made up their minds and decided to take decisive action. >> What the [ __ ] >> Stop. Stop. What did I do? Knock it off. >> Knock it off. >> Stop resisting. >> Knock it off. I'm a disciple. I'm a disciple. Knock it off. Knock it off. Stop. >> Stop kicking me. >> Just stop. >> I'm sorry. >> Guys, I'm sorry, guys. I'm sorry. >> Hey, stop talking. Sit down. >> I'm sorry. >> I really am. >> Think someone's done some math today? >> No, >> not at all. >> Why don't you act like that? >> So, there's this. That's >> what's your name? >> Adam. >> What's that? >> Adam. >> Disciple. Disciple. >> I'm a disciple. >> No, you're not. Okay. >> Look at my Look, take off my jacket. I'm a disciple. Look, I'm wearing it. I'm wearing a jacket. Take it off. Take Take this off. >> Okay. How do you spell your first name? >> I'm a game. I'm a disciple. Look at my jacket. >> Take it off. Take it. How do you spell your first name? >> ADA. >> Yep. >> That's how I don't want you guys to die. They'll kill you for killing me. >> They will. My game My game will murder you. >> I wouldn't kill you guys. >> I got you guys back for life. >> ADA. >> What if you killed me? I got you. Okay. That's why I don't want this. >> Okay. >> ADA. >> ADA L E. That's my government name. >> It is my legal name. >> What's your last name? >> Never. AD A L E. That's my real name. I swear. >> So hard to tell. What? Stolen and >> right. >> Did you find an ID? >> I have zero idea what she's even telling me for her full name. >> Natalie something. >> I'm in a gang and I'm a disciple. Perfect. >> I care about you. >> I don't want you to die. >> What's your first name? >> My gang would kill you.
