officer detects the man's hesitation and doesn't let up see how he Corners the suspect questioning the inconsistencies in his information so you got caught you lied okay no listen to me okay because everybody you gave these cashier checks to have been going to other branches to cash them okay that I gave them to yes so look they spoke to this actual David spoke to him he's in Colorado he didn't authorize any of this nobody spoke with me so you need to tell us who you are okay nobody spoke to me you need to tell us who you are okay I'm I'm tell you cuz listen it's kind of weird that you know you say you live in California but you give your address that's on your Colorado I have several I have several houses with the exact same address no but I said I said California it's Colorado so what's your address in California cuz I'm going to verify it I'm going to call that Police Department tell me what city what city yeah what city it's Springfield but Springfield California it's what's

your Airbnb account so you don't actually live in California though no I live in Colorado so why would you give the address for Colorado in California when you know it's an Airbnb because I you guys have me flustered sir have you flustered because you're stealing somebody's money no you have me flustered sir do you think banks are done I would hope not cuz my money's in there or somebody else's money that you're taking I would hope you're not done listing a Colorado address the ID matches the residents of its rightful owner however the bank's verification system flagged the withdrawal is suspicious due to the inconsistencies with the account owner's typical activity watch as the officers question the man about this detail how'd you get here today I got it right got dropped off so where are you staying in akan um I'm not staying in akan where where are you staying in Ohio why are you in Ohio cuz I just came to Ohio to uh visit my sister where's your sister with over in Avon in Avon so what are you doing in akan why would you come to the US Bank in akan there's there's US Banks all over the country there is US Banks all all over so why did you choose Aon because this is where he he was driving and this is where I so you decided to come almost an hour to go to the bank no not necessar it's not I didn't come here just to go to the the bank so who drove you here um I don't I don't know who so you randomly got in the car with a guy no no it's it's not a random guy either it's what's his name John I I don't remember his last name okay so a random guy that you don't know because I know all my friends last names especially when I get in a car with them and you came an hour to go to the no we came an hour to go shopping but where where are you going shopping all over the place we we went to a few different places please tell me where you're shopping in a um just we went to this was like a little FR store over down the way but I I wasn't driving sir I don't

for me what kind of car does he drive a Nissan Nissan what Al okay well there's no cars in the parking lot other than our police cars he was over there sir the officers now take this opportunity to question the man further about his so-called sister who he claims drove him to the bank what's your sister's name Jenny Jenny what's her last name dubas same as yours yes what's your phone number I my phone's dead if I had it I would give you I just Tri turn so if I call the col if I call the Littleton Colorado Police Department and I have them drive out to this address there's not going to be another mail with this exact same ID and same name is there I sure would I hope not I would definitely hope not I mean cuz if there was somebody there with my ID then that's so let me ask you this why did you pull out a bunch of cashier checks and cash and stuff yesterday and then come out trying to pull out a bunch of cash today you have bank cards I didn't pull out a buch do you have bank cards yeah I have my other bank card here okay so why are you continually coming my other bank cuz this bank's not around here okay so you come to US Bank from Avon you come down to Aon to US Bank okay you don't choose the US Bank downtown you don't choose the US Bank anywhere else hang on a second okay we ask you for your address you give us this address but say it's in California and this is a Colorado ID then you proceed to tell me you have multiple houses so I tell you to tell me the address in California hold on I'm not done yet so I can look that up and have the police department in that town in California which is Springfield that's all you told me cuz weird Springfield's 250 ft Down the Road Springfield Ohio and then you proceed to tell me it's an Airbnb I tell you to pull your phone out to show me the Airbnb B account so I can confirm that conveniently your phone's dead you pull a bunch of cashier checks the other day your cashier checks end up with people with California IDs being cashed at different US Banks you know all these Banks talk correct US Bank talks to a male who in Colorado with this same name that says no that is my bank account no I am not doing this it's clear he's hit a dead end but the suspect still attempts to talk his way out listen closely to what he says next and how am I supposed to I lost an ID about I don't I don't know a year or two ago too so they possibly could have my ID I don't I don't understand and you're a grown male who doesn't know his social so you lost an ID how long ago at Le a couple years ago or so was it cuz this was issued on 125 of 19 when you get when you get issued a new a couple years ago would be two years ago so 21 a couple I it was a while ago I don't I don't know like the exact date I you see how your story is making absolutely no sense did you say he doesn't know social yes so he's lying no I if I asked her if I could write my social down she won't let me well you got to remember it by um do you have any do you have any other forms of ID on your wallet uh I have my bank card let me see those do you have any health care cards if you don't know your Social Security you're lying hold on look at me look at me I've been doing this 27 years every hold on every adult male I've ever talked to that said they don't know their social security number is lying that's my history that's and hold on

staying in Avon and you guys decided to come all the way down from Avon where there's multiple shopping places up there in Cleveland everywhere you guys decided akan Ohio was the place you were going to go an hour as it turns out the man had been to the bank a day before to make a withdrawal completely invalidating the claim that he coincidentally came along with his sister who was driving through akan I I I don't know to a thrift store no that was one of the places we we went to but now he's got a friend here I thought you guys came here to shop we did he has we visits we came twice we came

her birthday at this point the man insists that the check genuinely came from his partner sugar daddy but the officer is already two steps ahead of the suspects her birthday is when is her birthday again you don't know so was just a little while ago the 18th the 18th were 2 bab all right so here's the issue right she brought that check in today okay um it was flagged by the bank because she's not a why is why I'm explaining it all you let me talk all it was flagged by the bank because a she's not a customer B the signatures don't match his known signature and see he doesn't really write checks ever so they contacted the account holder who said he's currently in a hospital he never gave her any money he never gave her permission to use a checkbook and that fraud that check is fraudulent so I spoke with him okay and they presented me with a check in your name from April 20th said you artwork on it I contacted the account holder which is the same guy he also said the same thing about you that check was never written by him we could ride over there dude I'll take you over dude's house I know where he lives he's not home he's in the hospital like I said all right the the signatures between your check and hers match they don't match any other signatures on his account if there were Jaws or anything else then why did they cash why did my check go through cuz you check cash yours at your bank it didn't get flagged immediately the man's Bank activity reveals that he previously cashed a fake check which went through because it wasn't immediately flagged now he seems determined to use this history to argue that their current check is legitimate a l so this dude this this dude this dude that the Thomas why is he saying that he going let us a check you tell me I don't know anything about this other than what I've just told you how the to check you tell me again I don't know I'm telling you what I have and I'm asking you questions I'm telling you I'm telling you what I have what I so you're telling me that he gave you that check on April 20th for doing yard work at his house at his farm yes at his farm yes is that in Okala States Little Mexico area okay okay I'll talk to him again um yep stand on up I'm going just put you in my car for now what's wrong with this D come on no don't talk to her put you in my car for now so I can all separately keep everything on the up and up I'm pting it down for we go down seat the officer moves to question the female suspect see if her story aligns with the male suspect all right Michael told your friend over there you're not currently under arrest but you're not free to go I have the questions for you after make you way your right before I ask you those questions you have the right to remain silent have these rights in mind or you can't talk to me right now okay so the account forer what's his name the guy that I got the check from he said is almost Thomas Thomas how do you know Thomas how well do I know him how do you know him I kind of sinkle him a little bit okay I guess should okay um is that the extent of your relationship with them yes all right how long is that relationship going probably like a month month okay maybe so how did you meet him just in when did he give you that CH bir 21st 21st so that's 9 days ago why did it take you 9 days I just I don't have a car so doesn't like ride all right Where's Thomas at currently I know you know so you haven't seen him spoke to him since that check was written okay has Matthew ever met Thomas I don't think so all right do you and Matthew live together what's the relationship between you and him it's my ex it's your ex so Thomas gave you that check on the 21st for what for services rendered not like I guess like sugar daddy type stuff yeah okay that's embarrassing $2,500 worth well I guess has he paid you before that was the first time all right the woman's initial responses are consistent with a mans but it's here that their story starts to fall apart you a check on the 21st posit it today has he ever paid has he ever paid Matthew for anything him yeah no not that I know of I mean I hope not I you ever done any work for Thomas I think so when right like right around like right my birthday right birthday I mean I don't really know you remember what he did for Thomas I don't I don't I didn't go with him so I'm just going to be up front with you um obviously they called us cuz they thought the check was bad you know coming from an onac account holder right from an account that never writes checks cuz he doesn't they looked at the just listen to me talk sorry they compared the signature on these check on this check to P past withdrawal slips okay signatures did not match so they went ahead and he contacted the account holder he said he barely knows y'all he said he's never written you any checks he's never paid you for anything and you don't have permission to write checks in his name so that's where we're at I I didn't write the check you did so you saw him write the check yeah he gave it to me okay all right you mind putting her in your car sure for now my car I'm continuing my investigation you're just detaining right now as the officers go through the woman's purse the male suspect tries to shift the narrative by portraying himself as a victim so what happens if the dud the fighting figh in the trck it's not it's actually the one that fraud then that'll be handled in court W who's going to investigate the state so I become a victim of this whole thing well as of right now you're my suspect but I WR the guess what it it doesn't matter that you wrote wrot it you're you're uttering a check that was foolished what uttering you're presenting it as if it was legitimate it was that that that's what you can say in court but as of right now I have prob cause for your arrest for a reinforced check so all right Miss ficia go and step out I'm going to transport bir of Y how did you become in a relationship with them how did you I met him at I met him at the store at the store or just in the neighborhood can you tell I met him I met him at the store and then CU he lives in a
