So I I know that you were at Walmart. I
just went and talked to them there. What
happened up at Walmart?
>> I was moving fast, like I said. I
scanned everything. So if something
didn't get scanned, it's only because
I've doubled up and I scanned it and
scanned it. That's why the lady kept
coming over there. So I don't understand
what I took.
>> Okay. So when I reviewed the
surveillance footage, you purchased, I
think there was two packs of ground pork
or something
>> Yeah.
>> along with another thing of meat.
>> Yeah.
>> Yeah. So you packaged both of those, you
scanned one. So you didn't scan the
second one.
They said that that was what was
happening with multiple stuff. Do you
have the receipt that you got from
Walmart?
>> It's in my house, but I scanned that
stuff twice. So I'm just not trying to
see how I did it. You get what I'm
saying?
>> Okay. So I watched the footage. You
scanned the the pork and it went right
into the bag. You didn't have It wasn't
like two swipes of it and stuff like
that.
>> happened, it's because I was on the
phone and I'm just moving fast cuz
there's a lot going on right now. So I'm
just moving fast. My granddaddy in the
hospital. I'm trying to get my kids I'm
trying to pick my kids up and get there.
So I'm just on the phone. That's why I'm
talking and I'm just moving fast. I got
linked I wouldn't initially stole
something.
>> Okay. Did
the When you're leaving the store, did
somebody come up and try to talk to you?
>> He did, but I'm on the phone and I'm
like, "Man, I scanned everything. I'm
trying to get to my granddaddy." I
didn't You get what I'm saying? If if if
if I come in that store a million times
a day, literally, a million times a day.
So if if if I didn't scan something,
it's only because I was moving fast and
I'm trying to get to my granddaddy. I
could come up there and pay for the
stuff. It's not like I intentionally
just stole. I never have stole nothing
in there. I never have had this problem
in there. That's why I didn't understand
today. But I'm just moving fast, trying
to get up out of there.
>> Okay. So, if you were if there was a
problem, that's what they are trying to
stop you and figure out with you when
you left.
>> my mind, you get what I'm saying. I'm
trying to get to my granddaddy. I I
didn't
>> I I get you, but
>> never had that happen before. So, I'm
like, "No, he tripping." You get what
I'm saying? Like
>> But so, if it if it's never happened
before, wouldn't you wouldn't you think
that something is off and you might want
to figure out why they're thinking that
you stole stuff?
>> Yeah, but I was
>> because
>> head, I'm trying to get
>> had you scan one and put it away, you
could have said, "Hey, this was a
mistake. I'm trying to scan multiple and
not pay for it." But then they tried to
stop you and you say that you're busy,
you got to you're got all that stuff on
your phone.
>> is he My granddaddy is on life support.
So, really, I'm trying to get to him.
That's why I'm like, "No, it can't be
me. I scanned all of my stuff. I always
scan all of my stuff. I would have paid
for it. I got Link. Like, come on, this
is silly."

>> No.
>> Do you have pockets on those clothes?
Okay. So, I'm just going to check around
waistband make sure you don't have

>> Okay.
So, I want to go get the groceries like
>> Uh
I mean
We did They They do want their uh
property that wasn't paid for back, but
It's over at the house already.
I don't And no one else is there to do
it, but
So
Walmart does want to press charges for
the products that weren't paid for. So,
we're going to take you over to the
jail. You're going to be processed and
then released probably with a notice to
appear uh on a different court date,
whenever that is. I'm not sure off the
top of my head. And then
Somewhere around there. And then,
they'll release you with that notice to
appear to appear, okay?
>> What about my car?
>> So, your car is being towed.
>> Why though?
>> Because it was used in the commission of
a crime, and then there's no one else
here to drive it.

We talked to them, and before I even
finish with that report, I said, "Do you
want charges for the property taken?"
And they said, "Yeah, they want to press
charges cuz you passed the last point of
sale for it."
>> We run into that all the time. There's a
lot of people that get caught, and then
they offer to give the stuff back. Well,
they
>> But I didn't even know I was stealing
the stuff. It's not like the stuff
wasn't getting scanned. That's what I'm
saying. I was moving fast. My granddaddy
on life support. So, I'm on the phone.
I'm moving fast. It's not like I'm being
sneaky throwing stuff in the bag tossing
stuff in the bag. That's what I'm
saying. Like I honestly was not aware
that I was not scanning the stuff.
