Are you threatening me? No. I think on June 16th, 2023, officers responded to a Sovous bank in reference to a suspected fraud. Hey, how are y'all? Hang out with her. You got your license on you, babe? They have my license. Okay. She presented a check and we called the maker of the check and they said that they give us the information. It doesn't match the check stock. Um, and they told us that that check was not written to her. Yeah, this is the check. Okay, so that what was going on? Um, looks like it might have been a fake check. You know anything about that? No, cuz it was nailed to me on um for some business that I had did online. Why you shaking so bad? Cuz I'm police. I mean, okay, I'm looking like what's going on? Okay, just bear with us. Let him look at those. Okay. She was also shaking, but she was signing her check. Yeah. And so I felt that was on really that signature is not Catherine nobody. And then it it looks like it's a little shaky. The signature does just really off the How much was it? What's going on there? Um, that check was mailed to me for um online store that I was doing for cake and um it was supposed to be for on shopping, but that's all I know. Come here, take off your purse.

I'm I'm innocent and I really don't want to go to jail. Well, then you're going to jail. But I want to know who dropped you off up here and I want to know what car it is. And that's going to be in your best interest. No, my boyfriend's in the car with me. He didn't drop me off. Okay. Which car? It's a blue sedan. It's a Chevrolet. Blue sedan. A Chevrolet. Can I call my boyfriend, please? Okay. Not right now. Let me just Is it sitting out in the parking lot? He should be here. I don't see why he wouldn't. What's his name? Okay. Well, normally the way that these things work is Yeah. I mean, this is just for your interest. I've read your Miranda and you decided not to talk to me. So, I mean, at this point, anything you say is not going to be used. Um, but it's also not going to help you at any point. But normally the way that these things work is you're approached by somebody says, "Hey, I just need you to go in deposit this check. You get this much of it. I get the rest of it. You're just whatever it is that brought you up here and then they get off scotfree and they're really the ones who are doing all this. There's no one doing anything. That check was mailed to me in my name. I can call my boyfriend and he'll be What's his name? His name is Greg. What's Greg's last name? I don't know his last name. Yeah. And he's your boyfriend? I mean, we've been dating for like only a couple weeks now. I had him take me somewhere. He was for riding with that. Yeah. Did you call? No, not yet. They were talking about 26 central. I got You can get a call when you get to jail. Well, can I get phone numbers out my phone? They'll give you that option when you get there. You got anything in here I need to know about? No. Anything that's going to stick me, poke me, anything like that? You got anything on here that can't go into the jail? Weapons. Any marijuana? No. One that said is you have an odor of marijuana. That's to be honest about it. I know odor of marijuana. It's called Jamaican oil. Sorry that you smells like marijuana. Who's been on the phone this whole time? I was on the phone with him when you guys came in here. That's why I said can I call already driven away? Mhm. He has been dropping off. What's the phone number for you? For I was calling him as I was walking in. So my boyfriend, please. I already told you not. Yeah. That's how long we've been here. You're going to jail. Luckily, it will only be forgery in the third degree. Forgery? How? How would it be? That's a fake check. You can't deposit. You can't charge me with forgery. I didn't make that check. Mhm. Try to deposit it. I didn't try to depaz in anything. I tried to cash the check. Yeah. Okay. It's not illegal to try to cash a check. What's for people to write I would recommend that you not make any other It's illegal. It's for people to write bad checks, not for me to try to cash a check. Okay. Miss, you're wrong because I guarantee if I do some digging, you don't have an online store. Who don't have an online store? Would you like would you like to check it out? Yeah, I'd love to. Okay, we'll open my phone. I just turned it off. Okay, you just told me to turn it off. All your money's going back in this front pocket. Have you heard of Gri Clothing? What's the passcode for your phone? Posh, I'm sorry. What's the passcode for your phone? I'm not giving you the passcode to my phone, sir. Why would I give you my passcode to my phone? cuz that guy was on the phone with you the whole time. A search warrant for my phone cuz you were on the phone with somebody the entire time and you just told us that it was the same person that brought you and you told me that you got a website so the website would contain evidence of this. So it's not. How' the person get in touch with you about this? Who? The person that sent you the check via email. By emails again. That'd be on your phone. mine and my kids socials and one belongs to my grandmother. Thank you. I'm our POA. You can put it back. I'll put it back when I'm done searching it. That's why I'm asking you who they are and give you the opportunity to tell me. There's no reason to get an attitude about it. It is a reason because now you're violating my personal state. No, I'm not. You're under arrest. Therefore, we go through everything. Those are my kids socials. Thank you. People do have kids. Yes, Miss Manning. We understand that. What are your kids' names? And if that's not that much occasionally, but you knew that already. Thank you. It's fine. As long as you have reason to have them, then it's not that is big of an issue. We just have to know whose they are. Especially in this situation when you're already getting arrested for a forgery offense. She just wants to check the cameras and see who she came up with. At least then I can start checking our cameras around downtown. Okay. See how the vehicle got here and whatnot. Okay. So, appreciate it. Yep. Y'all must really be bored for a $1,000 check. Doesn't matter whether it's $1,000 or $100. Whatever. Now I'm out of my merchandise and I'm I'm going to jail. There's nothing in here. Smells like it, but there's nothing in it. That's unfortunate cuz it's the Jamaican oil. Like I said, Actually, [Applause] before you go out, uh, well, you this office over here on the side, just search your record. 85. I haven't done that yet. Well, you did search me. Got my car if you want. You're not going to search me. You tell officer. That's what I just said. Thank you. She can search me. Take a step in. Thank you. You need to know about No. Nothing's going to hurt me. No. Can you come right here and lean against that table? Oh, sorry, babe. That's Jake. He's Hey, I brought We're trying to run it back and see which vehicle she showed up in. I mean, he's probably still outside waiting for him. Y'all just assuming we didn't say that he wasn't. We're still going to look. We have to go outside anyway. Assuming that's where she came in. That's crazy. Come in the same bank and cash $1,000 check. And y'all didn't question them not one time. Screaming. Quit screaming. Y'all didn't Y'all ain't question them not one time. Each one of them came in here with $10,000 [ __ ] And because I came in here with a $1,000 check, I'm doing fraud. Come on. Like, get the out of here. Just trying to find out what she showed up in so I can check our cameras and plate readers and things like that. Hey, can I pull my clothing store up too since he said I don't have that. We'll give him that or give you that opportunity in a second or if he will. Thank you. To your right. No problem. situation. Everything. Watch your head getting him. Whose numbers did you need out of your phone? Um, I had to. So, he's not going to let you take the phone because it's part of this investigation. So, it's going to go to evidence. So, while we're here, I'll stand next to you. But whose whose numbers do we need? I don't I don't have my contacts here. Yeah, I do have it. Um there's Lily. And I think she's parked in that little Honda cuz there's a little Honda out front. Little greenish Honda. You wouldn't be able to pick it up on camera. Not spend any money on me in case I don't know if they're allowed. I'll ask him. He's a little bit more familiar with the the whole jail aspect of it. Your whole purse is going with you though, and that's where the money is. So whether the jail lets you have it or not, that's up to them. But that everything that you had in there is back in there. Where do you live? There's no banks in here. This is the closest one. Yes. That's why I came out. Like I'm innocent. Like I I'm not trying to do fraud. I literally thought the check was real. Like I wouldn't waste my time coming all the way out here. My boyfriend's probably sitting in the parking lot waiting the back parking lot. Yeah. But I'm saying like y'all going to try to arrest him too cuz he brought me to the bank. If he's part of it, that's what part of that search warrant is. Part of it. That's why there's a search warrant on your phone. That's what he's going to get is a search warrant on your phone. If he goes through and he finds the website and he finds where your checklist was sent and all that kind of stuff and it looks fraud fraudulent, then you're this charge still sticks. If not, when you have a court date, then it'll be dropped. As of right now, you look guilty. Guilty. He's the one that looked at all of it, but he declared that. He He'll explain it to you. Hold on. Can I get a couple phone numbers out of her phone before you take it? I don't want you knowing my past, though. Back up. How does it not turn? Back up. I ain't scared of you. I guarantee you if you ain't had your uniform on your best day, get in the ring with me. I'm a I'm a cold ass boxer. I What? I had you crying to your mama. Are you threatening me? Nope. I said I Are Do you really want to keep stacking charges? Cuz your face not work. What's What is it? Wait. One, two, two. I can't hear the last part. 25 again. Damn. I'll answer that. I'm not answering that right now. 1225 25. I smell like marijuana. I don't smell like smells like mariju or your wallet smells like marijuana. How is that possible? It smells like oil. Oh, no. It does smell like marijuana. I know the difference between oil and marijuana, home girl. It smells like marijuana, but there's nothing in there, so it's not like you can be charged with it. Yeah, I turned it off. It's going in your purse. And then your numbers are going in this front pocket. All right. And for your information, why you trying to arrest my boyfriend? She's got something that she wants to tell you. Huh? She's got something she wants to tell you. I have to advise you that you have now been barred from all over. Okay. Just just that you understand that you barred. So that's why boyfriend you understand that you have been your boyfriend that you only know his first name. Your boyfriend that you don't know his last name. Got it. I'm not going to have to tell you his name. The hell you trying to lock him up? Why would I tell you his name and you trying to lock him up? Okay. Jesus comes in all shapes like All right. Hold on one second. Leader passcode. Huh? No, I gave him the case number. I gave you the phone number. It's in that phone book. I showed you. You watched me as I put it in there. He doesn't know how to get a warrant searching for the phone. Yeah, that's fine. But the longer he has I mean the longer it takes him to get that the longer you are without your phone. Just so you know. Well that's fine. Okay. I don't I mean they can't hold me without my phone, right? Hold What do you mean? They can't hold me with my phone. No, I mean I don't. It just depends on if you've had previous charges and that kind of stuff. That doesn't depend on your phone. Okay. I can get a signature by I don't know. I don't know. See, we don't really know any of that stuff. That's all with the the jail. So once we get there No, I don't think so. As long as you haven't had another one. It's a misdemeanor. Hold on. I'm about to look. It depends on if you've had another one or not. Have you been charged for it before? No. No, it shouldn't be. You're pretty cool. Honestly, I tried to be, but you coming out hot with me. No, because like I honest like I'm literally legit. Like I'm not you like regardless of what he feel like. Okay, fine. Hold on one second. So, I mean, I can read you your rights again if you want to talk to me about some things that I need to know. is a misdemeanor. Let me double check. I think so. I think third degree is a misdemeanor. [Music] It is a felony. Says a person who commits the offense of forgery in the third degree shall be guilty of a felony and upon convention therefore shall be punished by receipts from my email that it was out. So let me just let me tell you this. So you are getting charged with this right now based on the probable cause that we have today. However, you have a court date and if at that court date the judge decides that that's not efficient enough and we don't have sufficient enough probable cause, he can still drop it. So, yes, as of right now, you're going to jail. However, you should be able to owe our bond out. How if you haven't had any I don't know what your past is, so depending on that, you should be able to get out tonight and then you'll get a court date and we'll get that when we get in there. And once you have that court date, you can plea whatever you need to plea. Give whatever receipts you need to give and anything that you have that faces you as innocent. Okay. Why he charged me with a felony check amount only $1,000 and then on top of that I didn't write the check. I just got the check. Forgy offenses or just felonies like that. So like I just looked it up and it says shall be punished with a felony or confinement. So I think that's just how they're written. We enforce the laws. We don't make what they're considered. I was supposed to see my kids at 5:00 at 5:00. Where are they? Parchment. Do you not have custody? No. Oh, okay. It says a person who commits the offense of forgery in the third degree shall be guilty of a felony and upon convention thereof shall be punished by imprisonment for not Huh. Well, I probably didn't get indicted for it. So, that's what I'm saying. Right now, you're just arrested. Therefore, you still have a court date. And if that court date declares that, yeah, you're guilty, then that's when you're facing the actual stuck to your record felony and or imp like and confinement. As of right now, you're just looking at a couple inconvenient hours and you're going to get out and get time to collect everything you need to collect to prove your innocence. Okay? You truly are innocent, then just get everything that needs to show you that. Talk to whoever needs to say that you are innocent. I'm just telling you this arrest is based off of the facts and circumstances that were presented presented to the other officer to where he could declare that you were a guilty party in the moment. Got it. That blue door has custody of your kids in custody right now. What happened with the same guy? The guy that you Okay. Are they giving you an opportunity to have them back? Yeah, boy. This Well, this I mean, yes, this is not the best circumstance. However, it doesn't put them in harm, per se. So, I don't necessarily know. I think it'll be looked at, but it's not a deciphering factor on why you shouldn't have your kids back. The domestic situation is a little different. That could put them in physical harm. You didn't have a family member they could stay with, or did they not give you that option? I gave the hospital. [Music] Does she have a record? Huh? Does your mom have a record? Oh, they profile. Don't even start that. You literally just said you and I were cool. Me and you. Don't do that. That didn't stop them from racial profiling. You also attempted a check that looked fraud. As always, check the pin comments for updates. The suspect was booked for forgery, fourth degree.
