went to the bank with a check that wasn't that wasn't good and I didn't steal anybody's money I was given a check by this guy that I know and it's not a real check so I'm being arrested for fraud for

you while you are being questioned if you cannot afford to hire a lawyer or will one will be appointed to represent you before any question in if you wish if you if you can decide at any time to exercise these rights and not answer any questions or make any statements do you understand each of these rights that have been read to you are you still on to talk to us yes I need I need a confirmation yes all right so walk me from the beginning from when they picked you up all the way until now so how we get here they pick me up and but when they picked you up okay so was this plan before they picked you up or they just said hey I'm outside I mean I knew they were coming to get me but you didn't know what for I knew that it had something to do with um going to the bank but they just what I don't know so you knew they were picking you up and you knew you guys were going to the bank I didn't know that I was going to be calling in trying to cash a check okay but you knew they were picking you up and you knew you guys were coming to the bank what else did they tell you before you got in the car that's pretty much it that they were picking you up so you can go to a bank and help out with your rent yeah all right and when did they make you put the uniform on we were I live in apaka we were almost to the I to get off I4 in um Tima um when they started talking about scrubs going to the store and getting my scrubs asking me what size I was and I'm like what are you talking about like I didn't know anything about that and they were like um um that it just looks more official and I'm like what like what are you talking about I was kind of just going with whatever they were telling me that they were doing okay um because I'm desperate I need to keep my kids head all right um but yeah we went we got the scrubs um he paid for them yeah it's 15 are you going to be here for a minute all right copy only reason I'm asking is um we got a hold of the uh guy driving the burnt orange vehicle um he wouldn't explain exactly where he was at but he said he was going to come back so just in case if he does I was just trying to see if someone could be in the parking lot spot him okay so Maris was the passenger and Maris friend was driving all right and then what else happen when they get okay so they said we're going to buy the shugs it looks more official put them on yeah and you put him on I mean I didn't put him on right away but yeah when we got to the bank when you got here to the bank well he pulled up like across the street and like a plaza right there with like Little Caesar Fair P pulled up by the fair WIS the plaza okay and then um wrote the check and basically told me put those on this is what you're doing and that's not at all what I left my like okay so he pulled in to the land Plaza and that's when he told you to change to the uniform cuz it looks more official and he handri he me this okay and he handri the the one driving the one driving okay do a r with them that we're here for something else no he's aware that she is uh detained and possibly going 10:15 so she convinced him to come back to talk to us how long am I going to have to stay there will I be able to get bonded out today or do I got to wait for court to be bonded out you can get bonded out today but I don't think he's a true friend CU if he told you to come out and do this and he said he's going to take the rap for it I would have been back ASAP especially with you having two kids yeah I don't know all right so I'm I'm so sorry I'm just joining this I'm halfway yeah yeah I'm half I'm joining in this halfway through okay so from what I understand this check is fake mhm you knew this check was fake I didn't know anything you didn't know anything no I just knew that this was someone trying to help me get my rent paid so I'm not evicted with my children and I'm at the point where I'll do almost anything to make sure that my kids don't feel feel that everything that I'm going through to keep the stuff going so when he told you to get dressed in the shrubs and he WR the and he uh wrote the check for you I at that point I obviously figured what did he say to you when he wrote the check and gave it to you he just had to go in and tell them this this is what he wrote this is what it is what did he tell you to tell them that I'm a living assistant that I take care of someone's mom or something and that which is not true obviously no no you should be all right for right now I'm not even tired of sure he's coming back he didn't sound too all right so he told you to come in here act like he was taking care of somebody uh taking care of a okay and at that point did you know the check was fake when he gave it to you before he walked into his bank I figure so he wrote it for $3,390 and then obviously did he have the scrubs or did you he got me I was in my clothes he picked me up and I'm just riding with them thinking I don't know I'm just going with the flow and then he said we got to stop and get your scrubs and I was like what if we need to stop and get your scrubs for right and that was when he I mean he didn't even fully explain it he was on the he was had like two phones on the phone with different people like I was just sitting in the back just writing like whatever y'all tell me I need to do so I can pay my I know Maris for a couple months but the guy driving is maris's friend I don't know him my first time seeing him today and I got you burnt orange SUV yeah what about this white Mercedes I don't know anything about Mercedes okay but he did say to you on the phone that was the crackhead well because Grand my grand no this is important you're looking at felony chargers right now I'll be honest with you okay and it's called uttering a forge document okay so this is probably more important than what Grandma's got to say I mean I was just asked her to pick up my kids from school so that's probably okay tell her to pick up your kids tell her probably she I told her I was I was getting ared so I mean okay then answer only because it has to do with your kids hello I got kids so can I see I'm working on getting you a copy of the che the third check uh almost there's this $3,400 there's another check that was cashed what TD Bank did he cash this one Grandma I'm talking to the Cs right now so he cash a couple cash like two before this at this bank no he cashed two at other TV Banks or somewhere else other was like I believe the other two were in Orlando okay and that one has his name on it this one has her name on cuz her in here to act like are they the same same check numbers and all that this is University Boulevard 13 obviously you know that Orlando PD that has to go through them because that's their jurisdiction and all that so um well I'm just more or less giving this to you as far as information just to let you know that there was three checks that were absolutely yeah but for the for like reporting purposes and we can give you a case number and we can even fax this over there as far as like a a case linkage um because obviously this is the same people so it's going to be a case linkage it might even be a Statewide prosecutor because it's multi uh through multi-jurisdiction if the two are connected no that this is from the white Mercedes yeah let me just be perfectly clear with you right now there is no way that I believe that these two incidences are not linked they're not I I I mean I promise on everything said he was on the phone talking to people right not to so he had multiple phones he's talking to people two people don't walk into a bank at the same time I mean I just that would just lightning striking check they walk in and they just leave you sitting here I get that but that whoever that was I never I you didn't have to see him I know but he wasn't it might not be something you're knowledge you may not know these guys may know but you probably don't cuz they just left you say I mean right away as soon as you said that they're dealing with somebody else and he said to you oh they're dealing with that crackhead he said that I don't know so he knew how how would he supposed to know what what were and they both both left at the same time One Cop showed up everybody leave you're still sitting here the they went to a TV with me in the car right before we came to this one and he was walking out of that TV too and then we I told them when I got here that I seen the same guy that walked out of that one here and you think that these two things are completely by ACD I don't know what you don't I'm just know I'm just asking you to think logically I'm not saying that you know right I'm not saying that you have some master plan in this I'm just asking you to speak logic think logically wait right two different people this might be the core okay two different people committing similar frauds over multiple jurisdictions just so happen to be leaving at the same time and you think that's an accident I get how it looks but I like I said I have no knowledge of the only thing I'm asking you for is if you have any names of these people which I know you already or mar mar and he's supposedly coming back here he said I got you Family Dollar I don't know who the guy knew he was going to say that exactly what he said you knew he was going to say walk over the Family Dollar and that that that's what happened they've been texting so um did he say he's coming back when I walked out did he say he was going to come back but he was trying to figure out a way back he ain't coming back cuz he said he had he had to trying I all I can imagine is that he's not trying to have whoever's driving the front orange SUV the one that's his friend come back he's trying to get out of that car and find a way here so that whoever that is I like I I don't know his name I got you what let me ask you this would you be willing to write a swarm written statement about what happened about this is this guy that you met two months ago that he picked you up today that he took you to The Scrub Shop that he took you to these banks that he told you to put the scrubs on told you you know everything that you're telling us would you be willing to put it in writing on paper I I'm still in trouble well yes I I don't have the ability to make felonies go away okay but what I can tell you is is that this will help you in court it cooperating suspects that's what I've been trying to do the whole time I no and I appreciate that so that's all I'm asking if you put it in writing that's all I'm asking I'm not making you any promises that it'll lessen you're not you're not lessening any trouble you're in today okay it's just for the future right for when this goes to trial do you look like a accomplice to a Master scheme or do look like a girl who's trying to pay her bills so her kids don't be homeless you know what I'm saying that's what do you want to look like what picture do you want painted of you for the jur the truth the truth right so will you write the truth for us and swear to it yeah thank you let me go get a statement for can I call Maris again huh can I call Maris again see if you come back but other than that we need going to be waiting here all day this an organized fraud scheme out of Orlando I'll be honest they probably go to like a Statewide prosecutor um we're taking I I say we take a phone yeah c will probably want to do a search one on it and all reality I'm good with it I'm sorry my advice to you once you get through all this you don't need to talk now yeah don't turn on it you need to put this in your past and not not ever do this again I how old you guys I'm not going to say I know how you feel cuz I don't have kids
