Step out for me. >> 38 >> We're going to seize that money. >> He takes his backpack out and he takes a Brinks bag. >> Do you know the bag that they're talking about? >> no idea. >> Body cam footage begins after investigators say a Brinks armored truck driver completed his cash route with one ATM money bag unaccounted for, setting off an investigation into the missing $104,000. >> Go ahead and empty out your pockets and your shoes and socks. Go ahead and step out for me. What's what? Squint that at me. 10-4, are you stopping that guy or what? 10-4, we have him stopped. He's 10-15. You ain't got anything on you? Give it a minute. You got anything on you? >> I don't have anything on >> No knives, guns, nothing? No necklace on? Two shirts? >> Car 416 416 >> Hey Sarge, uh just from seeing the house on the road, I believe the Jeep is 97 at the house, but me and Clark and the trainee are out here with him, so there's no one at the house if you want to swing over there. >> All right. >> Nothing in your shoes or socks? Lift this foot up for me. Have a seat. >> What began as a missing ATM bag has now become a case built around surveillance footage, company records, and every stop the driver made that day. >> I wonder if he had what the denominations were in in the bag. 925 carry 925. In the cash, you know what I'm saying? Like people carry thousands. >> Hey, he just said that his wife and the kids are at the house. Sarge said to go to the house with him so they have to secure it. What we need to do is so the denominations of the money that was in the money bag was all 20s. So, he's got all 20s in his wallet. >> Okay. >> So, we're going to seize that money. >> Okay. >> Um so, we need to fill out this form saying um that we're seizing whatever cash is in his wallet. We have to just make sure we count it again. And then we're going to do a cash count form also. Do you have one of those? >> I believe so. >> So, complaint number it would be Glasses case number. The date property seized from would be him. And we can just leave address blank right now. >> How many 20s are with the >> So, count how many 20s are there? >> 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 >> So, 38? >> Quantity would be 38. >> So, what's going on? >> All right. Uh I'm with We're both with Brinks. I'm with Brinks Security. And last Friday, the 21st, we had a uh messenger who went on route. Messengers are the ones that drive the armored vehicles. >> Right. >> Uh he checked out his route, and one of the bags, like midstream, he didn't even finish his route. He only did three, and then he came back, made an excuse that his kid was sick or something, so he had to come back. We're missing a bag. So, uh Liz was here kind of supporting the branch here, and watched him go to a rest stop. Well, we don't service rest stops. A truck stop? >> The one up on the interstate? >> Yeah. Do you know if they have cameras up there? >> I don't. Uh they might. I'll have to check. >> Okay. But, we have cameras in our truck. So, I can see him. He takes his backpack out, and he takes a a Brinks coal bag. The coal bag is the black bag that where they put their uh money and stuff in. >> Right. >> And they go in and out of the uh a business. Well, he takes his bag, and he goes probably to the restroom. So, I want to pull I want to pull the hard drive from the truck, and see actually where he goes. But, then we get him coming back, cuz we have internal cameras also that we can see live. And he brings his uh coal bag back, and he takes his backpack out. And then he starts stuffing stuff on top of the bag, trying to conceal it. Like, he opens up his backpack. >> He stuffs up on top of the >> Inside of his backpack. >> Okay. >> So, he gets his You see him get his jacket, and he opens up his backpack and stuffs his jacket on the top of it. So, that's where we believe >> They took the money out of the delivery bag. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> Put it into his backpack, most likely. >> Yeah, cuz he left So, he left with five ATM bags. I counted them before he left. He did no ATMs. He stopped at the rest stop. You see him get off with the bag. He comes back on, takes his backpack out, shoves the stuff on top. And >> So, he stops at the rest stop. He takes a money bag and his backpack out of the truck. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> And then comes back and takes his backpack out of the money bag, puts his jacket on top of it, zips it shut, comes back to the branch. Nobody searches him. He leaves with his backpack. I counted on camera, only four ATMs came back. He didn't do any ATMs. There should have been five ATMs. >> He only had 13 routes. >> Yeah, 13 stops. >> So, just just so I for clarity, so he went to a place, the rest stop. Would Would that ever happen normally for a driver to go to a location that's not part of the route? >> He could have gone to the bathroom, but not with the with the cold bag. >> Yeah. >> Right, you never take the bag I'm assuming that's part of like protocol that I don't know. >> they have a route sequence that they have to adhere to. And when they deviate from that, they know the branch knows that they went off the route. >> Right. >> So, that wasn't even on the route. There's no stop at that truck stop or that rest stop. >> Is it even Is it in between any two stops or >> It's on his hour. >> He drives back to the branch. >> He's in Panama City Beach. >> So, I called him today and talked to him and said, "Hey, you know, did you have any problem with your route?" He goes, "No, no." I said, "Hey, I I I understand that you quit." He goes, "Yeah, I quit. Just not for me." So, after he left that day, when did he throw his uniforms away? >> So, I guess between when he brought his route back and didn't finish it on Friday and when they showed up to open the branch on Saturday, he threw his uniforms over the fence and texted the manager that he quit. And he hasn't been back since. >> Yeah. Okay. Is there any way for me to look at the video from inside the truck what you were describing to me? Can you show that to me? >> Um >> Well, that's why I'm here cuz I I was trying to get you guys to come to the hotel cuz we had everything laid out. >> I got you. >> said, "Can you come here?" So, I got everything that you can look at. >> Uh do you need like a computer or a desk or something? We can go inside the precinct. Uh I'll just go right This I don't think they have a key swipe here for me to get in. So, I'll have to go open it from the other side. Yeah, from what from what I've gathered so far just the initial is um like he's supposed to be driving a route, armored truck with bags of money, uh stops at a rest stop, takes a bag of money and his backpack out of the truck which they can see on they said they can see on camera, goes into the rest stop, comes back, takes his backpack out of the money bag, like stuffs his jacket on the top of the backpack, zips it up, goes back straight back to the to the Brinks place, turns in short one money bag, and then later on throws his apparently uniforms over the fence, texts the boss, "I quit." >> Investigators believe they've already reconstructed the driver's entire route. The only question left is whether his explanation matches what the cameras recorded. >> All right. Mr. Miller, I'm Deputy Last with the Sheriff's Office. Since you're in handcuffs in the back of the car, I got to read you this before we can talk, okay? >> I got you. >> You have the right to remain silent. Do you understand that, sir? >> I do.

Well, here's Here's the thing I understand. I Brink's has been doing this for a really long time. They have a lot of systems in place, some of which were duped to make this happen. However, there is a detailed record of everything. >> I know. I I worked there. I understand it. And I didn't take their money. Like, their bags disappear constantly. It's driving me crazy. >> Okay. >> Just >> Okay. So, do you know the bag that they're talking about? >> no idea. Cuz I didn't take a bag, so I don't need any details. I didn't take shit. Well, it's crazy. >> Okay. Well, so you did a number of things that are abnormal cuz every Again, everything they do everything's on video, everything's tracked. Right? >> So, do you remember stopping at a rest stop on the way back from your route? >> Yeah. I had to go to the bathroom. >> You had to go to the bathroom. Okay. Did um What did you What did you end your route early that day? >> Cuz my door wasn't working. The whole doors were just like stuck shut, so I didn't I couldn't get in and out. >> So, you ended your route early cuz of the door. You say you stopped at the bathroom on the way. Do you normally take a money bag with you into the bathroom? >> I had my black uh Brink's bag with me. Yeah, because the doors were all screwed. I didn't want to get locked out with everything. So, I brought all the keys and everything with me in there. >> Okay. Um do you normally bring that backpack that you had in in the money bag with you? >> Yeah, I bring all my stuff with me. >> All right. Well, I mean, do you normally bring that bag to work? >> Oh, yeah. I bring it to work all the time. It's like my personal stuff. >> The next few moments would become the most direct confrontation of the interview as deputies challenge the driver's explanation with the timeline they say surveillance cameras had already captured. >> Okay. Is it a >> It's a book bag. >> Yeah, is it Is that in policy? >> I don't know I don't know what the policy is. >> All right. Well, they said that my understanding is that the if you have a personal bag, it's supposed to be either clear or like a mesh bag so you can see in it. >> Oh, man. Well, I guess no one no one applies by that then. >> Okay. I don't know that may be so. I'm just asking. All right. Um do they normally search bags like that that aren't uh clear or mesh bags? >> Kind of. Sometimes it's not They don't follow protocol there. They're very sloppy. There's money everywhere and everything. It's just don't surprise me. They just accused another guy of stealing money in that room in there. >> Okay. Okay. Well, understand, like I said, the way everything's tracked, it's very clear that you take all five bags out, the ATM bags, the blue ones. All right, you take five ATM bags, you load them on the truck. That's all on video. >> Yeah, and I brought them back. And then I brought all of them back when the door didn't work. >> And on video, they have you checking back in four bags, not five. >> I think of it being >> All right. So, that means that that bag disappeared while it was with you. You're the only person >> No way. I had everything scanned in. Whatever. It's like I guess I'll just take a lawyer because I didn't steal any bags, so >> Okay. All right. Go and hop out, phone, please. >> I don't got my shoes on, all right, so >> Let's take it easy. We're going to go around to this uh other patrol car. >> Uh is there any way you can get my e-smoker or no? >> Uh that can't I with you, I'm afraid. Those are uh They won't accept those. >> And you And you wouldn't move these to the front? >> I can't do that. Sorry, it's against policy. >> All right. >> Well, since this is a misunderstanding, it's a fair question. Would you be interested in giving us consent to search your truck and your house to verify that there's no money that that's not supposed to be? >> No, that's crazy. You don't need permission to search anything. Like, I didn't steal shit unless you find me going through your taking it. >> Well, I I mean, say you didn't do it, I understand. So, I'm just offering you an opportunity to help us dispel if there is a misunderstanding, help us dispel it. >> Yeah, got you. No, I'm just sorry. I don't want to help myself with anything. >> Not a problem. >> Ryan Anson Miller was taken into custody and charged with first-degree grand theft of more than $100,000.
