All right. You just Grab one. Grab one. Grab one. Grab another. How do you forget eight times that you didn't scan something? >> Well, he I think he gets the I think he said he thinks he confuses someone else's hand when he's scanning his beside him. >> That doesn't make sense. >> I mean, I get that. But at the same time You're feeding me a lot of [ __ ] is what you're doing. Not at all. So, at the end of the day, we It's every single time. I don't care how much you make. I'm I'm buying I'm not No, it's too late. Come on, please. Hey. Hey. Don't you Can't do that. Okay. Big retail stores like Walmart are a magnet for shoplifters. There might be times they succeed, but sooner or later, justice catches up with them. That's what happens when the cops surprise the hell out of Walmart shoplifters who get caught in the act. On March 18th, 2025 in Ohio, the cops were contacted by a local Walmart. According to security staff, there was a couple there running a skip scanning scheme. They'd run the scam in over 20 stores, and it was their modus operandi at Walmart. When the officers got there, an employee caught them up on what was happening. The minute the last thing we got multiple out of Waverly, they bagged, they skip scanned stuff at the registers. We got put on to them and ran their card. My boss probably has 20 cases, 15 cases that he's put in. They're over a thousand dollars from past thefts. And we got a dozen or more items not scanned. I just got to get the receipt, but they're both in there. But that's Are you from this jurisdiction? Yeah. Um we I've got a report up. I can show you where they're in the system, what they're what they've been doing. But uh We've just been waiting. I had them in the other day. But the handheld was messing up. And it was like two items. And I was like, "Well, we'll wait and get us all in." And this is actually The employee led the cops to a security room where the suspected couple was being detained by security. At that very moment, a staff member there was reviewing all their fraud cases over multiple store branches. This one's $188. This one's 56, which is the lower one, $114. I mean, there's 20 20 or more cases that you guys were involved in. I know what you're trying to tell me you didn't do anything wrong, but I mean, why do you think I'm going to watch you? This is two cases out of Waverly. This is what That's why I mean They've been involved in 18 events. 16 from us so far that's loaded up. This one's $201. That's him pushing it out. There's her blue pickup truck. Um their total value is 1356 at the moment. And it's it's all either not scanning stuff at the register or um scanning one, bagging two, three. We have receipts. We got to tell We got All that. Photos. There's still some we stopped them here. Like they It's going to be 20 or more times that they did in here. They did Waverly. >> And this one or just Walmart general? Waverly, here, uh Columbus. It was one of the Columbus stores. They've been skip scanning in Waverly and also in Columbus. It was hard for the cops to track all of their crimes, so the cops first asked security staff to clarify the cases connected specifically to that Walmart. >> You got four bags of weed for this store. Well, three months. How many cases? Well, this guy's Right now on this one, he's got one. Two, three. Does this store break a thousand? Yeah. Five, seven, nine, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20. 18, 19 count this one. And some of them are $27. Some of them are $218. Probably two days ago. This one's 288 or 188. 207. You know. Some of them Well, they got a sweeper the other day and it was 400 or almost Well, $300, right? Store security had receipts for each and every time they'd operated their scheme there. Adding everything up, the estimated value of what they'd stolen was over $1,000. It was then time to question the suspects, and first was the woman, Miss Simmons. So, apparently this is a thing that happens frequently. I'm not trying to be funny when I say this, but how do you know there's a little camera on a scanner? Oh, there's cameras all over. >> that, but I understand that also things can be mishandled accidentally. Not saying it's always. But you can't say that every single time we come in here we steal something. That's not You're right. >> So, not that question. I'm not worried about that right this second. What happened today? No, we were I always stand there talking to cuz I know everybody in here. So >> there and talk to everybody. What wasn't scanned? I guess a few things. It was probably some lotion, something. Um some chicken, some cheese, I guess. But we paid for everything in the cart. Like I get >> that you paid for some items, but you obviously didn't >> the items except for like eight things, I think it was. Like Not saying that >> kind of a lot of things they're not scanning. >> I get that. I >> How do you forget eight times that you didn't scan something? >> Well, he I think he gets the I think he said he thinks he confuses someone else's hand when he's scanning his beside him. >> That doesn't make sense. I I mean >> me a lot of [ __ ] Not at all. So, at the end of the day, we No. It's every single time. I don't care how much you make. >> Okay, that's fine. >> But listen to me. I'm not going Every time you come here Every time you come here, you guys are caught not scanning things. Miss Simmons tried to portray herself as financially well off, but the cops here weren't buying it. The woman's initial calmness was deceptive. When the cop made it clear she was going to jail, all of her confidence quickly evaporated, and it only made things worse for her. I would step back in here. You're going to go to jail today, though. No, I'm not. Bet. Step inside. Stand up and turn around right now. >> No. Yeah, you're under arrest. >> No. For what? For stealing. I I didn't do nothing. What are you talking about? Right now you're being detained, so stand up. >> going to be detained. Okay. Let me verify something just real quick. Today, right now, she assisted in not scanning items, correct? We got the receipts. We got her every time. Okay. And she She said she was looking around while he was not scanning items. Yeah, they But I talk to a lot of people here. Do I Do I not need to be doing this? I know everybody in here. And it's every time they're together they're not scanning items when they're together, and she's doing the same behavior. Every time. Okay. You're under arrest. >> talk to everybody. You're under arrest. For what? Stand up. For theft. You cannot arrest me. >> If you don't stand up and turn around, you're going to be having additional charges added to your booking sheet. All right. Can I give my stuff to my husband, then? No. Set it We'll hand it whatever when you do. >> Well, there's a lot of money here. Can you just put it in my purse? Thank you. Turn around. What are your customs? Have you talked to him yet? Huh? You talked to him yet? No, not yet. After detaining this outspoken female suspect, the cops continued their work and went on to talk to the male suspect whose name was Dave. Reportedly, Dave had been skip scanning while Miss Simmons distracted the employees. At this point, Dave was desperately trying to justify himself. I didn't mean to miss this. Like honest to God, I didn't mean to miss it. Right, but you do realize that when you come in You You will I missed that plastic thing. I missed the body wash. But see, when I missed the plastic thing, I knew what I did. I hid it. Right. And then I thought I hid it again. And then we Right. >> It's not like I was just like, "Hey, You know what? No, I understand. I'm going to steal this [ __ ] I don't know if uh value thing you're doing, you know, man. You know I'm not, but I I do not believe that she did not know. >> No, she She She immediately told you to shut up and stop talking to us. You know why? I don't know why. No, she wasn't saying that. She said I was talking too much. Because you admitted to not scanning stuff. She didn't want She [snorts] No, she didn't. She didn't mean it like that. She didn't No, she didn't mean it like that, bro. I promise you she didn't mean it like that. She was just telling me because I was talking. Even more absurd was the fact they both had cards and cash, but still they were stealing. Here's how their scam worked. They bagged the more expensive items, and they scanned the ones that were cheaper. Soon enough, the security footage proved just that. Look at that. He scanned the cheap one twice. >> Picked up the other one and bagged it. Yeah. That was my fault. I mean, you could obviously tell it's a cheaper thing. She'll stack stuff over here. And then he just like bags it without scanning. Yeah, see I mean, come on. While you're picking and choosing, it's not always the same thing every time. Yeah, you got chicken that was $10 and something. Um that's $5 that I missed. Well, he double bagged the corn. It was on there twice. Yeah, he got the corn. Some stuff. It was just the case of but he scanned it for wild rice. I thought I The cheese is on top of the rice. He scanned the rice for $1 and something. The case of it was like $4 and something. I thought I had two bags of rice. I was going to say I had two bags of rice. All right. And then the pricey desk. I don't know what he's doing with that. He scans the cheap one and then like I thought I scanned the other one for over here. No, I really thought I scanned the first one the first time if you watch the video. I scanned it. And like I said, we got like what? 20 something videos. Yeah, it's going to look like I scanned this one the one time. And then he misses this big This is one of the biggest items they had, and he misses it completely. Dave tried to lie to them saying he hadn't been skip scanning, but simply failed to scan things properly. Meanwhile, Miss Simmons was trying to distance herself saying she had nothing to do with the entire scheme. She's clearly involved in it. No, she's not. >> I'm I'm not. Like I'm I'm trying to tell y'all. I saw it and you like you kept getting mad at me. So, you don't want to answer any more Be quiet. How am I supposed to continue my investigation? We got a problem. The two shoplifters were cornered and the no-nonsense cops weren't buying their silly excuses. Dave soon started negotiating, begging for mercy, but it was not going to go well for him or for his [music] female partner in crime. Can we just give some of this back, please? And I will take care of everything for so I can get take care of my kids. That's it. I'm not You know, I'm not going to put back here. I'm not going to follow nobody. I'm in my house. You can follow me to the crib whatever you want. Yeah, not with the history of of doing this for 3 months. I'm not I'm not going to put back here. I'll give I will bring $1,500 back here. And that's 20 times here, right? Yeah, that's just here. So, that's not even counting labor. And that's in 3 months? Yeah, the past 3 months. I'll bring them back to my house. Yeah, we we don't even have a value. That's the crazy part. And then, of course, they We're good. We're good? Okay. Thanks. They arrested the couple and they were taken to jail. They both were charged with felony theft. On the 21st of February 2023 in Hillsborough County, Florida, a sheriff's deputy responded to a call from Walmart. According to their asset protection, there was a shoplifting in progress and when the deputy spotted the woman in the parking lot, the woman took off and it started a foot chase. You need to stop. Sheriff's office, stop. You're going to go to jail. You need to stop. Sheriff's office, stop. You're going to go to jail. I'm not playing with you. You need to stop. Sorry. What's your [ __ ] problem? Get up. I'm sorry. Sorry, I don't know why she was chasing me. Something silly you can go to jail for. You understand? Please don't take me to jail. Are you going to take me to jail? Depends. Put your hand on the car. Put your hand right here. If you come off of this car, you're going to get tased and you're going to go to jail. You understand? Yeah. The deputy quickly ended the suspect's attempt to flee. Shortly after, some Walmart employees came out and the officer briefed them all on the pursuit. So, what's going on? Cuz I'm chasing this random girl through the parking lot. She tried to throw everything into the van where her boyfriend was sitting. Oh, oh, he was in the van? Yeah, he's with her. He was with her. Yeah, I saw. Yeah, I think he left as soon as I She threw the purse into the car. I reached in, grabbed the purse back. She's still running through the parking lot. She almost got slammed to the ground. She's not listening. I'm sorry. Now you're sorry cuz you got caught. Now you're sorry. You weren't sorry before when you were running from me. Put your Put your garbage. Let's go inside. Figure out what you stole. Police car right out front, red and blue lights on. You still want to steal. Like that's not a clue. The cop was completely unmoved by the suspect's whining and excuses. She was soon brought into the staff room where she was questioned about her theft attempt. You got anything sharp on you? Any narcotics? Anything that's going to be found? That seat, that's not your seat. You don't get that privilege seat. You got anything on you? No. Got me running through the parking lot like you're not going to get caught. And she She threw the purse into some van that was sitting there and then I think he hauled it. And you got money. Why not just pay for it? There's another receipt. I don't know if this is yours. Yes, is that the return receipt? That's what I mean. She's probably going to have dope on her cuz she's got syringes in here, so. Yeah, I told you. Didn't I tell you this? 658 That's her stuff I brought in. Can you have a female 94 not 19 meet me at loss prevention for a search? 10-4. Female unit 251 to Can you sit with her while I get my computer? Yeah, that's fine. And then you're I'll handle everything. You don't have to Oh, you said you didn't know who I was talking about. Yeah, you're like, "Get her." I'm like, "What?" You're like, "Get her." I'm like, "Oh, the girl running through Got it. The deputy searched her belongings and there were disturbing items inside her purse, but something immediately caught the cop's attention as the ID they'd found raised questions. What's your name? What's your name? Yeah, it's the 94. What is your name? Sky. Sky what? Sanders. Okay, why do you have an ID for another person? Oh, that's my friend. She just left it in my car. Mhm. You ain't getting that back. You got a warrant? Sure? You seem like the type that's going to have a warrant. Got me running in the parking lot, bro. Get some exercise in there. I'm like sitting there and she's like, "Sir, get her. Get her. Get her." What the heck? She like takes the the purse and like throws it into a van. And the guy sitting there reaches in and grabs it back. And then you got your vehicle took off? Yeah, he he did. The cop, of course, wasn't born yesterday. He had an eye for things like this [music] and he correctly judged that the suspect here, Sky Sanders, looked highly suspicious [music] and was clearly involved in criminal activity. The search of the woman's purse only reinforced his impression that she was far from innocent. Your drug of choice. Well, that's clear. So, that looks like That's me. That's water. There we go. You got some crystal. Good bag. Yes, now you're under arrest. Now you're going to jail. Fancy your question from earlier. And some a goody bag. Another nice little crystal bag. That's You got to That's why you didn't want me to have your purse. Good bag. How you How long you've been on the for? For a while or just got back on to it or what? Just got back Hey, squirrel. When was the last time you cleaned your bags? It's been It's been a minute? Yeah, cuz you have a bunch of dirty used needles. So, at this point, you're not getting any extra charges if you have on you. But if you take something into the jail and they find it, that's an extra charge. Using protocol, the deputy secured the contents of her purse and soon after, a female officer arrived. As she conducted a pat down on Sky, one of the employees explained to the deputy how Sky had been acting during the shoplifting attempt. Get the items or get cash back or what? So, these were the items. But some of these items have these tickets on them. Which have to be scanned. Okay, so she scanned those instead of the regular price for that item. Okay. But where is all the merchandise at? So, most of that she actually paid for? Either paid for or did she exit the store with them? Yeah. Okay. And she was running She was running with a purse. We looked up. Right here when I went to stop her. So, right here. >> Yeah. She grabbed her purse. And then just took off running from you. >> Yeah. You tried to stop her there? >> Mhm. Physically stop her or did she push you or anything? Okay. So, you stopped her in the vestibule, tried to direct her back to the loss prevention office. She grabbed her purse, ran out the door. That's when you pointed at her to me and that's when I had to go chase her down. Store security determined that the merchandise stolen by Sky totaled over $200. She was then escorted out and placed in a squad car. Once she got there, she was trying to negotiate the charges with the cop. I think there's something we can talk to you maybe come and talk to you about like the drugs. What do you mean? Like I don't know, me trying to do something at work to get charges off or whatever. Oh, no. We don't do that. No? No, unfortunately not. That That's something that you would have to speak to like the judge about or attorney. I know like in Pinellas, they'll do that. Different county. Yeah. Different county. We We do different stuff, okay? Um like this is basically the end of our aspect from here on. You're just going to get transported to Orient Road Jail. Booking's going to let you know when you can go see a judge and how everything else is going to go, whether you get bond, whatever. Maybe I don't know your history, obviously. Um and then once you go see the judge, whether that's going to obviously be tomorrow morning cuz there's not going to be a judge that's going to see you tonight, currently, right? Sky was taken to jail and she later had to appear before a judge. Hopefully, after facing the consequences of her theft attempt, she'd give up the drugs and shoplifting and lead a more stable and lawful life. On May 13th, 2024 in Georgia, the cops got a call from Walmart. There was a suspected shoplifting, so the cops were dispatched immediately and they managed to catch the man in the act between the aisles. Hey, [ __ ] partner. Hey, I heard you might have some property that ain't yours on you. It might look exactly like this. I'm going to go see what he was doing over here. Yeah. Go ahead and put that phone up for me, sir. Other phone up. I'm not I'll buy it. I'm not No, I'll buy it. Come on, please. Put your hands behind Hey, hey, don't you [ __ ] do that. Okay. Okay. Don't you [ __ ] move around. I'll I'll Can I please just buy it? No. Now you're going to jail for obstruction. How dumb was that? What you got into 95? All right, thank you. All right, well. You're fine. We got our own charges now. Don't try to run for shoplift felony. Uh y'all can The office is unlocked. All right. >> The man immediately started making excuses. He claimed he intended to pay for the merchandise, but the officer wasn't buying it. He responded to the man's pathetic excuses with obvious mockery. I doubt it. Then why did you go to Walmart? That That makes you guilty right there. I ain't never run off on the police. There's a first time for everything. No, you're going for a fraud and a stealing. No. God hates thieves. What? Yeah. The church has a chaplain where you can ask for repentance in it. Nope. The cops escorted the man through the entire store, and he was eventually brought into the staff room where they began to search him. To their surprise, the man's pockets turned out to be deep and heavily loaded. Yeah, sure. Which thing is one you stole? This. This. Okay. Dude, you tried to run. I paid for it. Well, I don't give a [ __ ] I wasn't This is all brand new. It was like Okay. Hey James, if you want If you want to do a second little look around, I'm actually writing up my notes. Huh? If you want to do a second little look, we'll sit here a minute. >> Yeah. Uh he This is Sorry. This right here. What is that? Those are full blankets that he was on the aisle with, so I don't believe it. >> That. Yeah. It'll go in your Hey, look. You got to court, you tell them the truth, they'll end up coming back to you. You got another headphone in there? No, that's it. All right. I got you. Please. Please. Please. A little late when you tried to run from us, dude. As they were searching him, the man was begging the cops for mercy and saying he wanted to pay for the merchandise, but his repeated begging didn't change their decision, and if anything, it just irritated the cops further. Dude, stop asking me, please. You're not Nothing. What does he have? He just wants a citation. >> No, you're going to jail. I used to try to steal that, too, huh? Yeah. All right, just sit down right there. It's uh it goes to this, which is apparently his, but they just look brand new, you know? After getting everything out of his pockets, they examined the man's loot, which appeared to be brand new and most likely didn't belong to him. The cops soon found out that it wasn't his first encounter with law enforcement. You also have a warrant. Yeah. Uh where Where Yeah, do you know anything? Yeah, like probation violation, failure to appear, something like that. There is also this. Um he's saying he's had these, but uh they look brand new. So, um No, I bought it. Well, why would you buy one and then come steal one from me? Yeah, they're rusted. They're not mine. Okay. Uh what about these? I don't Just like if you had a time to just in your life decide, I want to be honest with people about things I've done wrong, this is your one time. Why don't you just admit to what you take? This looks brand new, too. >> Because I've got the camera, I'm going to review it, and it's going to go to the judge. The video will go to the judge. The man was formally trespassed and banned from Walmart. A store employee completed a lengthy list detailing everything he tried to steal. As he was escorted out, they made a new discovery, and he had even more things hidden under his shirt. It also became clear that he hadn't just stolen from Walmart. A belly uh thing with a flashlight on it. A belly thing? Yeah, it is. You got dope up in there? No, no dope, but cup straw. Where's your car at? No. What What do you mean, no? No, it's not my car. Where's your car at? Uh My buddy's right there with that white truck. >> Okay. Got drugs in that car cuz I'm going to search it. Well, you have drug paraphernalia on you. We got Say my real quick and I'll get you out. Didn't tell me about that. It's straw, man. I ain't trying to get The man's excuses didn't work for him, and he was transported to jail. He eventually faced charges for shoplifting and also for an existing warrant. On the 4th of September, 2024, the cops are called out to a Walmart after a woman was caught stealing on camera. When the officers got there, they found the suspect in the parking lot sitting in her car. Hello. Hello, ma'am. Uh What do you What do you have right there between your legs? An unopened bottle of Estelon. Okay. And where did you get that at? Uh I got it from my friend. Okay. Um From So So, what did you just take out of the store at Walmart? Excuse me? Okay. So, they just called us, and their loss prevention witnessed you and has you on video taking stuff out of the store, okay? Taking what out of the store? Merchandise out of the store. All right. So, I'm going to have you Yep. So, go ahead and set those down for me. I'm going to have you step out of the vehicle, okay? >> Okay. So, all the all the produce, all that kind of stuff on the floor over there, where did that come from? Um Um Uh I'll I'll be Snacks, and this iPad for a day. Okay. And then unopened. Okay. All right. So, go ahead and step out of the vehicle for [music] me. You can If you want, you can roll the window up and and turn it off, okay? I'll I'll turn I have no Right at the moment, they weren't for certain whether she stole everything from Walmart, but one thing was obvious. The woman loved her alcohol. That became even more apparent when she stepped out of the car. Why don't you Why are we stepping inside? >> Because we're going to go see loss prevention. I'm going to give you the drink. Me? Yes. I haven't been unopened. Okay. All right. >> [music] >> We're going to step inside, okay? I'm I'm It It's not an option right now at this point. We're going to go inside, [music] okay? So, you can either walk in peacefully, or we can walk you in there, okay? Um Here's the deal. Here's the deal. Walmart loss prevention called us and said that there were some items in here that you did not pay for. That is why we're here. I I stopped [music] at the Okay. That is why That's why we want to walk you in there and see what's going on. Uh no. I'm from New York. I'm not >> [music] >> You know, I have my I don't have my receipt on me if you guys want to see that. It's that. You don't have any type of receipt? I do. Okay. It's on my sister's card. Okay. You have it on your phone? Uh yes, this is. Okay. Initially, she seemed ready to comply with what the officers asked, but within [music] seconds, she became uncooperative again. She began arguing with them and refused to let them search her car. So, hold on. I've been here counting and budgeting and all of this stuff, and now you guys just pulled me out. I could have left. Like, what's the problem? What's the Again, we've already The problem is loss prevention is saying that there are some items that you did not pay for. What items? That's why we want to go inside and talk to them. Um you know, I would rather wait for my attorney. My sister will sit here. Okay. I I'd rather wait outside for your supervisor, everything. So, he is the supervisor. You are the supervisor? He is the supervisor. So, you witnessed me take things Okay. >> That is what Walmart is That is what we are here to investigate. What Which Walmart associate says that I stole We will gladly show you if you just walk in there with us. No, no, I'm not walking in anywhere because I'm I have no I'm a PA student. Do you have your Do you have your ID with you? Do I have my ID? I have a New York State ID. My Illinois ID is coming in next week. >> Okay. Can I have your New York State ID, please? >> Absolutely not. Okay. Can I get your name? No. The cops firmly explained to the woman that she was the subject of an investigation. At that point, she had to give the cops her name and ID, and if she refused to do so, she'd be placed under arrest. Still though, she was acting like she didn't understand. Why would I need to tell you my name? >> Because we're investigating a crime right now, and you are the suspect in the crime. What's the crime? I just told you. The crime is retail theft. That is the crime that we are investigating. Can you please tell me your name or give me your ID? I can wait. My sister lives No. Then I'll wait. You are going You can either This is the last time I'm going to tell you. You can either give us your name, or you are going to be You are going to be arrested. Arrested for what? >> For obstructing us. I'm giving you a lawful order to provide your name and your birthday and your identification. After evaluating the risk involved and realizing it was better not to stall any longer, she provided her name and ID. That being said though, she immediately tried to buy more time. She then suggested a very absurd motive behind the officer's intention [music] to search her. Is this because of the sexual harassment I claimed across from the neighbor? I have no idea what you're talking about. All right. So there's an officer Voltron. You did the whole thing. I'm the only >> Uh I'm going to need to see your ID, okay? >> I don't have it. You don't have your New York ID with you? I have my New York ID. She took a really long time searching for ID inside her car. That being said, the cops are used to delay tactics, so they tolerated it calmly. She eventually found some documents and handed them over, though not without additional excuses. Yes, it's expired, but I just um applied for I went in for an Illinois license. Um I know I have like unregistered tags. I have my whole thing. I have not I have >> 140. Copy one by file out of New York. The cops were waiting for digital receipts, which she claimed to have for all the items. But instead of immediately presenting them, she started explaining where supposedly she'd gotten every item. This I got at the gas station. I guess I got to get it uh this I got at the gas station. Everything is on open. I got this yogurt. This is for me. I you know, stomach ache. >> Okay. My my niece, she's a vegan and all on the rough. Okay. So uh here's the deal. Do you have a receipt from Walmart from the information I have a receipt. It was a refunded receipt. My sister has it. That's why I said Okay. >> My sister will come and bring the receipt. I I exchanged it and then I walked out. I'm cleaning my car and then you guys pull up. I have no qualms about you doing your job. Like I get it. I'm fine. There was surveillance footage from the store and the cops explained to the woman that they'd know if she was telling the truth. She refused to go back inside though and had another absurd excuse.

She became entangled in her own contradictions and as she tried to explain, she mentioned lots of different people including store employees and also her sister. After that, the sister she was talking about suddenly became a cousin. Once I walked into that establishment with the stuff and then it doesn't matter with my cousin comes in with her MasterCard and then does yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah.

I didn't do anything wrong. Okay. The cop stayed outside with the suspect and meanwhile, his supervisor was inside reviewing the security footage. Shortly after, the supervisor returned and informed the suspect and the officers what he'd seen on the monitors. Here's the deal. Watch this watch the video. Okay? It has you in the store picking out the alcohol, right? And then leaving the store without paying for a thing. All on video. That's where we're at. So right now you are going to be detained for retail theft. Okay? So go ahead and turn around for me, okay? That's where we're at. Go ahead and turn around for Can I Can I We'll talk through everything here in just a second, but go ahead I I need to put you in handcuffs, okay? Okay. All right. So put your hands behind your back for me, okay? Clearly, there was no arguing with the surveillance footage. She was taken to a squad car, transported down to the jailhouse, and charged with retail theft. On March 31st, 2024 in Rail Rock, Texas, the cops were dispatched to a Walmart due to a theft in progress. According to loss prevention, a man and a woman were seen leaving the store without paying for merchandise. When the officers got there, they talked to a store employee. Yeah, the male has a cap with the still the price tag attached to it. And they have a bunch of clothes they grabbed. I guess I already asked you if you want to press charges. Yeah. Okay. Just want to make sure. What register are they on? Register 35. 35 like right inside. Uh they're almost done. >> to see what side they were going to go. And you said uh the stuff that's in the laundry basket hasn't been scanned? Uh the stuff in the laundry basket hasn't been scanned already or not yet? It still hasn't been scanned. What's in the basket? Female has got gray hair, green shirt. Apparently she has tights on. The The male has a hat from the store with the tag still on it on its head. So are they still committing the act or what are they doing? They're still in the act doing the trying to pay. They're trying to pay? Yeah, or pretending to pay, but they just walked away. >> they closed this door already, so they're going to head to the grocery side now. According to information provided by staff, the woman was seen shuffling through a pile of credit cards, which were presumably stolen. The cops waited for the suspects to pass all points of sale. Soon after, the man walked by and they confronted him. You got anything on you that could poke me, cut me, stick me, anything like that? Uh no, I'm not. All right. Can I Can I pat you down and make sure you got no weapons? Yes, sir. Okay. Just want to pat your body back, okay? You're just going to be detained for right now, all right? Okay. What am I being detained for? We have a reasonable suspicion that you're stealing. What? What is your suspicion? Can I search you and make sure you don't have anything any weapons on you? Yes, sure. Okay. Spread your feet for me. You got your wallet or ID on you? Yes, sure. Well, I don't have my I don't have my ID on me. You're lying, bro. That's not my ID. That's my buddy's from work. Damn. Why do you have your buddy's ID? Uh I work with him, man, and it was actually his wallet, but I was carrying it today cuz he got screwed in the church, so When are you going to When are you going to stop lying? No, I'm serious. I'm I have to tell you I got a man. All right. All right. Actually, I'm a man. In fact, I had it two weeks already. He just You know he just stay home, man, so The male suspect was 39-year-old Mingo. From the start of the encounter, he became entangled in his own excuses. The cops then asked the man about his female accomplice. Who's the female that's with you? Uh that's my girlfriend. Your girlfriend? Yeah, she kind of She kind of helped me, man. She helped me with her ID. I'm like I got to go home, man. I need to go home. He was like I got to go. So is your ID in this wallet? Not sure. That's her clamps. This is you or this is you? This is you. This is you. I got to put this in my pocket. All right. So the belt that you have on as well There's a plastic tie on it. I have them here, too. Okay. >> Yeah, we were supposed to actually pay for that though, man. >> Okay. So um We'll work through it. Yeah, I I meant I I did I did have it on, so We'll work through it. I apologize. That's it. That's your vape. Where'd you get it from? I ate the cherries. I just smoked it now and then. Is it THC or what? No, it's it's regular bubble gum bubble gum smoke. I I smoked it for the taste, man. You said this this Yeah, look at that, dude. You still got the I don't know, man. I I got to stop >> Stop Stop moving. My pants falling off of me. You know what I'm saying, man? I got to get a belt, man. Oh. Thank you. Mhm. He He got completely Mingo's belt was stolen as well. At that point, the cops now had to locate the female suspect, 37-year-old Lisa. The cops had a detailed description of her and soon enough, they found her in the store. Hey, I got you, man. Yes, I have I'm trying to pay for them. Yeah, come on. We're going to go over there. We're going to go to the loss prevention office. Let's go. Hey, so the jig's up. Do you understand why we're here, right? So you're being detained pending a theft investigation. So go ahead and hang up the phone. Now, let's go. We'll We'll talk to you in the back in the control room, buddy. Lisa was brought to the staff room where they were questioning Mingo. When they asked Mingo for his name and ID, he began stalling them, so the cops started losing their patience and gave the man an ultimatum. I'm going to give you 15 seconds to rethink. Did you give me a good name and date of birth? Okay, we're going to find out, but yeah. I'm going to take this off for now. Okay. Where's your receipt? Yeah, that's not how that works, though. Going to pay for it doesn't mean that you can leave the store. Okay. Did you conceal anything in your purses or bags? Just be Be straight up cuz we've got a lot of security cameras. Lisa claimed she'd paid for the merchandise, but she couldn't prove it. Meanwhile, one of the cops got information she'd been hiding things in her bag, so he searched it. All right, so they watched you conceal items in your bag, so I'm going to retrieve those items, okay? Do you have any other stolen property on your person? Okay. Yeah. Yep, this is stolen merchandise. All right. Stand up. Stand up. Hey man, so we can't have you eating and stuff like that while we're in our detention, so we're going to put you in handcuffs right now. Stop. Stand up. Stand up. Stand up. We're placing you in handcuffs right now. You're just being detained with handcuffs for now pending a theft investigation. Again, Okay, we'll work We'll work through that, okay? Okay. Okay, so we're going to work through it. We're going to talk to the employees. We'll talk to you. Lisa insisted she wanted to call her lawyer. Meanwhile, Walmart requested that they both be trespassed. Also, one of the store employees who'd seen the surveillance video said Lisa had another stolen item on her. Okay. Some stuff paid for? Nothing paid for. Like they attempted and then he literally walked away with the basket, pushed out the door, and that's when, you know, y'all approached them. And then she kind of just stood around, started putting her all her cards back in the wallet. So she was coming this way and we contacted her. Mingo tried to stay quiet in the corner, but Lisa was more brazen. While she'd been caught on camera putting items in her purse, she still had the nerve to forbid the cops from searching it. This purse. You have stolen merchandise on you. Hold on, Lisa. Let me talk. You don't have to give me permission to search. At this point I probably Stop asking. Hey, your name's Lisa? Okay. How come you have her check? Okay. The mystery of Mingo's real identity went on and on. He'd still not provided any proof of ID, and soon enough his accomplice interfered with the cops in their attempt to get his name. >> Okay, give us your real name and your full name. Give me your full real name. Adam, what's your middle name? You have like two last names? Because I'm not asking you. Hey, do you have two last names possibly? Okay, how do you spell that? Okay. Will that be before or after Mungia? Is that going to be Mungia space Ar- Arredondo? Yeah, okay. Is it Arredondo or Ar- Spell it. You don't know how to spell your last name? Why does it keep changing? Right to the end of it, both were ready to deny it all. The cops calmly explained to them that they'd passed all points of sale, which made it a clear case of theft. And that's when Mingo came up with another absurd excuse. So right now, the only intentions that you had towards stealing is what was in your pockets? Yes, sir. Okay, what was in your pockets? So you're saying that was an accident? Clearly, they were both prepared to repeat their made-up excuses endlessly. Sadly, though, the cops were unwilling to play that game anymore. They were informed they were under arrest, and they immediately started begging and whining. Stop, Lisa. Stop. I'm not We're I'm I'm done, okay? Stop. Do you understand that you're under arrest? Stop. Okay, you're not going to mental hospital. >> [laughter] >> Are you okay? They were escorted out still insisting they'd paid for the merchandise. They were both placed in squad cars, and once inside the vehicle, Lisa had an emotional breakdown. I got to go, I got to go. Lisa. Lisa, I need you to I need to buckle you in, okay? Lisa, do you need Do you want the air on or not? Lisa, do you want the air on, yes or no? >> [crying] >> It was later established that both Lisa and Mingo were already familiar to law enforcement. Both had previous charges, including criminal trespass, driving while intoxicated, assault, possession of controlled substances, theft, public intoxication, forgery, and also mail theft. On the 28th of February, 2025, an incident occurred at Walmart. A man was stealing from the store, and he threatened the staff and customers with a meat tenderizer. Hey, man. Excuse me, sir. No. I got to talk to you, all right? You're not free to leave right now, you're being detained. Hm? You're not free to leave, you're being detained right now. Do you have an ID on you? Do you have any kind of ID on you whatsoever? Okay. Did you get his name? Look, man, we know you came in here and you didn't pay for some stuff. It's not that big of a deal. All right, but we got to talk about it at least. Okay, we're not here picking you up for no reason. There's a reason No, no, no, you're not free to leave. You are not free to leave. If you walk away, you're going to be under arrest. Do you understand me? Acknowledge you understand me. Stop. You're going to get tased. Put your hands behind your back. Stop tensing up. Put your hands behind your back. You're not? Stop tensing. Right now, you are now under arrest. Put your hands behind your back. I don't want to tase you. You seem like a respectable guy. I know you're freaking out a little bit right now. Put your hands behind your back. We don't want to hurt you. We'll walk through the whole thing, but we need you to comprehend what we're saying and put your hands behind your back. What do you want to do? What do you want to do? You want to what? You talking about the bag? Okay, put your hands on your back. Put your hands behind your back. Appreciate you. That's all we're asking you to do. As he was acting belligerent, the officer placed him in handcuffs. He'd been hostile from the start, but he eventually eased up and became more cooperative. When he asked the cops for a favor, they obliged the man. What do you want on? What do you want on? My beats. Oh. My Dre Beats. Is there a way to turn them off so they don't die? I don't know. You got a button right there? Yes, sir. Thank you, sir. Where do you want them? Um Your backpack? You can keep it. How much of this is yours? This is all mine. Okay. All right. Well, real fast and before we can continue our conversation, just cuz now you're in handcuffs and you're under arrest. You okay? >> You okay? You all right? Let's go to the I don't want I'm not going to embarrass you in front of the public like this. We're going to get you inside the security office over here just so you have some dignity. We're talking over there. You okay, man? No, I cuz I don't want to have you in handcuffs in front of everybody. I'm sure you don't want to be there either. So, I'm trying to show you some respect. It's a private room. We can talk more there. That's what I'm trying to say. Does that make Do you understand? I'm not screwing with you. I'm just saying I don't think you want to be in public in front of handcuffs on So, I'm trying to show you some respect. There's going to be other people in there and it's not like we're I'm saying we're going to go beat you up if that's what you're thinking right now. We're just literally going to talk to you in a private room. We're going to get everything sorted out there, all right? I'm not I'm not lying to you. I'm not lying. He then got hostile again and was being uncooperative with the cops and no matter how much empathy they showed him, he still wasn't ready to comply. They were urging the man to trust them, but the man still had more of his show to put on. You got to communicate with us. Like, what are you thinking right now? Come on. Come on. Come on, man. Just take a seat for a second, man. I'll walk you to this cold What's up? Yeah, no, there's a bench in there. You want to sit there? Wait in there. Come on. Come on, dude. What are you What are you doing this, man? I'm so hurt. No, no, it doesn't. Do you think we doesn't want to do the bases, man? >> [laughter] >> I really do. All right. Well, if you're going to sit here with us All right. All right. Time to exercise these rights. Do you understand those rights? Well, you've been understanding English so far, so I'm going to assume you do. Keep them on the ground. Stay on the ground. Stop. All right. Just put I don't want I don't have anything down here. Excuse me, sir. Yeah. Why are you checking my bag? Uh you're under arrest. Everything's going to be checked. You don't have probable cause. The officer responded that they had probable cause to search his bag as he was already under arrest [music] for theft. Inside the backpack, they found some very interesting items. How much is that How much of that tequila did you drink to get that smell on your breath? So, just that little amount? Did you just start drinking? So, you like to work out, right? How much do you bench nowadays? You don't know? I got to put that stuff I don't know if this is stuff that he went back and got. That's why I'm having them confirm exactly what he took. Well, he's going to go for obstruction at least and the retail theft unless they suddenly say he didn't, but they were pretty confident. It looked like the man was not going to get away with Walmart with just one single charge. He was escorted out, but the man didn't make it easy for the cops and started resisting them again. Please don't do that. You're going to go Come on. >> Stop. Come on now. Please, please, please don't do it. You want your shoulder? Got it. All right, boss. Sir. Come on, man. All right. You just Grab one Grab one Grab one. Got him That's kicking. Stop. You hit any of us, you're going to catch some felony charges. We're giving you one chance. If you not sitting there, we will have to force you and you're going to catch more charges. If you kick or hit or anything to one of us, you're going to catch more charges. So, we're going to give you the chance to go in here voluntarily. Do you understand? Yes. He assured the cops that he'd get in the squad car without putting another show on, but just a second later, he failed to keep his word, so he was not only a thief, but also a liar. At the very least can we start What are you I got my thumb hurt like a motherf Which thumb? He's trying to He's trying to He's trying to get out. He's trying to He's trying to go like this with his thumb to get out. Which Oh, that one? One for one. All right. That one's tightened up, so you can't do that. [snorts] You want to see my shoes, too? What What What did I have to Okay. I appreciate you. Trust me, I know. Why don't you get in there? It's cold. Your brown's cold. Take a big step. >> There you go. There you go. Scoot in. I ain't got nothing on me. Look. No, I believe you. I believe you. All right. Put your Put your legs in. Do you want the window down? You want some air? They charged the man with resisting arrest, disorderly conduct, retail theft, and assault on a correctional officer. On the 28th of January, 2025, the cops were dispatched to Walmart for a suspicious situation. There was a vehicle parked in the emergency fire lane, a Dodge Ram 1500, and its engine was still running. There was a woman walking around the truck and as the cops approached the vehicle, a man walked out of Walmart and walked toward it. >> Hey, man, come here real quick. Question for you. So, you're here with your wife? Mhm. Is your side chick here as well? >> No, it's my wife. She thinks that that's what's going on. Okay. I don't know. So, that's ultimately what the issue is. Kind of. It wasn't really a I mean, it's just happened before. Yeah, okay. I don't know why I got called, but one lady that seen us kind of bigger and she did look really concerned. I knew it was going to happen. Well, if I'm getting personal with you, I'm just trying to figure out what why people are calling, you know, for the concern. We had something in the car that was a friend. I [clears throat] got arrested for possession of that. I took a damn charge for my wife who's driving my truck for her not to go to jail. I wouldn't take the cake cuz he was going to take everybody cuz everybody seen it's not ours. Anyway, that caused a lot of stress on him. I think that's when the cheating stuff She started thinking I was cheating. Okay. Watched me go to jail in front of my daughter doing 35 years old who had never been arrested. Yeah. I think that that's why she's having this thinking I'm cheating. I'm just trying to deal with it the best I can. The suspect said that the main problem was his wife's jealousy, but unfortunately, there was a cart full of unpaid merchandise they'd left in the store and the cops couldn't see what jealousy had to do with it. As a result, they asked the man about the cart. As far as the groceries, so they had that big Yeah, well, I had a Go-Trax. So, I was telling her the scooter, the little riding scooter, cup milk couple small things, toilet paper. Okay. >> And um yeah, I don't know I don't know if she's uh You had it back in that pickup truck. >> the car, so I know she didn't get far. I went back inside, told her to pull up. That was my fault. Told her to pull the truck up and I'll be out in a minute. Well, I got there, no car, my wife's walking out saying, "Hey, I got to move the truck." I'm like, "What?" She says, "Cops." I'm like, "Oh, shit." So, I ran out here. All right. Well, if you need to go pay for things, let's go let's go pay for them. They took the man back in the store to pay for the merchandise. At the very same time, they'd found the man's wife who'd remained inside with the cart full of goods. She then made a rather shocking statement. Honestly, he probably never would have bought anything cuz I I canceled all the cards. So, that's how I knew the charges were on there. >> [music] >> He doesn't know about that, so he's probably going to be really pissed off. I was trying to save that. I was trying to do that whenever he went outside and tried to do Cuz I knew he was going to be really mad. That's where I found the charges and what started the day. He doesn't know that I know that the charges were on there. Are you going to be okay for the night? >> Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. He's not going to He's not He's not any more than honestly if anything I'm He said you guys were arguing in the parking lot, so This because that's when I cuz he came out originally without the car and was complaining about asking me what we were going on and what we were fighting about and then >> Okay. That's when I Then he came inside and the car the truck was parked in the fire lane. At the same time, the man came back having attempted unsuccessfully to pay for the items in the cart. The cops intercepted the man in the aisle and while the situation was almost comical, he was trying to come up with some kind of excuse, but it didn't work. Hey, I don't have I don't have enough in this car to cover that. Um and also with this situation, I guess I'm just going to come back. It's fine with me. I'm I'm just going to come back cuz I don't have I don't have $300 in this car. I'd rather do Well, I'm going to I'm going to put I'm going to put it to you this way, okay? That You both are acting very franticly, right? You know that there's no money on that card right now. You pull up the truck. You have a large load. What do you think I'm trying to get out of here? I already know. I already know. I'm not stupid. I told you earlier I'm I'm already in this situation. That's exactly why I'm just going ahead and leaving. But I do have money. I work. I do work. You know what I mean? Like, I Why would I Why did I come in here to steal that much money is what they're Dude, I mean, come on. That's pretty stupid. Come on. Have I Have I maybe possibly you know, knowingly not scanned an item before? Maybe. But I you know, never anything like that. Okay. I mean, there's a guy sitting here >> Well, I'm going to tell you what's going to happen now. I'm going to tell you what what's going to happen right now, okay? Okay. All right. You're going to meet for now till we get everything figured out, all right? The cops assured the man that for the moment, he wasn't under arrest. He was simply being detained. But he wasn't the only suspect here and his accomplice was waiting near the store exit. The cops handcuffed the woman, placed her in a squad car, and began to question her. What's up with all the erratic behavior? Because we've been thinking that he's cheating on me for quite a while and um I found some chargers, I found a receipt, and I was pretty sure he was eating the watermelon here. Cheating thing is obviously something you guys are going to have to worry about. Unfortunately, that is not a criminal offense. Exactly. Okay, so that's not a reason why you are in custody. Okay, so why am I in custody? What I am looking at is because of your guys' erratic behavior, the truck being pulled up right here ready to go, the large amount of items that are expensive on the cart, and some items concealed inside of a cooler. You see, I wasn't in the I wasn't even in the store. Well, I don't know. Here's the thing, is you came with him, you could be an accomplice in this, okay? Accomplice in what? Of stealing. Well, why would he steal it? He literally He was at the self-checkout. He told you to go purchase the items, right? He Well, I didn't have the card. You didn't have the card. >> That's when I came in and told him Well, when I told him that the cops were out here to go move the truck, he walked out there immediately. He walked walked right away. Not one person asked me to leave. I sat there and talked to that lady right there the whole time and let her kind of know what was going on, and the reason I was like standing there like that. Not one person told me to leave. The suspect then changed her story, saying her husband intended to pay for all the merchandise, but she'd lost her patience and forced the man to leave. When the officer asked the woman about any previous arrests he might have had, she acted genuinely surprised. Does he have a history of stealing? No. What about this Academy Sports when he got arrested from Academy Sports? When did he get arrested at Academy Sports? He said he got arrested at Academy Sports. He got arrested at Academy Sports? Academy Sports. What? >> him for 8 years? I've done it Yes, he's never got arrested at Academy Sports. He not get arrested. When you all be able to see that? Yeah, I'm like, "What are you talking about?" Well, he didn't get arrested. They We were walking so Okay, when you buy new shoes, Yeah. okay, and you when you buy new shoes and you're wearing the shoes that aren't the best shoes in the world, I put your old shoes in the old in the new box and walk up with the box. >> already paid for? Oh, my daughter does that even. Like, when I buy my daughter new shoes, How old is your daughter? 5? Yes. A 5-year-old has no intentions of stealing anything. Right, but I mean, I've done that my entire life. So, in basic Okay, they had asked us about the shoes, and I said, "Yes, here are the boxes right here." So, there was There was no charges filed. >> No, never even talked to the police. >> Cuz when he said this is the second time >> Maybe that's why he was saying that because it's his second time that I tell him all the time he looks look old. That's why I think he's cheating. He's like shady all the time. He looks like a shady You both look shady. You both are You're both are guilty in this right now, okay? The woman told the officer she was bipolar. After they questioned her, they went to the other squad car where the man was sitting waiting. They gave the man a chance to explain himself. Oh, thank god. What's up, man? Did you have the heat on in here, bro? No, it's not on. Yeah, all right. There's just no AC vents. I dropped my hat. That's why my hands are down there. You good, man. You good, man? Uh dude, it was hot, man. I got a half a lung over here, bro, that I'm dealing with. So, I breathe a lot more than any you know, regular people, so I got you. All right, can you just explain the events tonight of what happened? Tried to fix it. Did she Did she ever drive your truck? Um I mean, it's just I know I mean, I I mean, when I told her to pull it to the front, I I pulled it up to the front. You pulled it up? She didn't pull it up? Uh-uh. Thank you. Yeah. So, I mean, other than that, I mean, we we came in here, started loading stuff up, and Well, I started shopping by myself first. Uh-huh. She came in around the end, but I mean, she was on the phone most most of the time outside. I came outside. So, who pulled up the truck? And I pulled the truck up. You pulled the truck up? Yeah, why? What I'm trying to get figure out here is who is the shopper here. Where was she at during this entire ordeal of you guys coming to shop? On the phone. Uh yeah. Your guys' both of your guys' behavior is very erratic. Well, I mean, >> are coming behind this right now. >> Well, it's probably That's what I'm looking at, obviously. That's why you're in custody. Cuz it looks bad. Yeah. It looks bad. I already know that. >> okay. He admitted to the cops he'd been arrested twice before, though not for anything theft-related. He assured the cops that he wasn't a thief and that he intended to pay for all the items. The officer then asked him directly whether he concealed any items in the cooler. I did put a battery in the cooler, yeah. But I was just making room for the cart, man. Making room. >> That's why That's why I knew that it I knew it looked bad. And when I when I got to the front, I kind of felt weird anyway, cuz some lady she stopped me, and so I guess she wanted me to check my items out with her, and I was like, "Oh, no, I got to go get my wallet. I'll be right back." And then I went to the um register, told the lady, "Hey, we watch this cart, we'll be right back. We'll go get my wallet." And then everyone Was this before or after your wife told you law enforcement was here? This was before. Well, what I'm trying to figure out is why she freaked out so bad about just the the truck in the fire lane. So many people pull up their trucks in the fire lane to load up, you know?
