So we can say, "Hey, these are the itemized things that she said that she bought. We can compare it to what they think that you took. If it's $40 worth, it's $40 worth." So, it's probably the easiest way to help you out in this case. You're saying you're telling the truth. I mean, if you stole, you stole. Did you steal? >> No, I did not. >> Okay. Do you want to prove your innocence and show what's in the bags? >> It just be so simple. If it was if I was in your shoes right now and I was with two >> I know you're just trying to keep your job but I don't like people >> I I get that. >> We're giving you the benefit of the doubt. Go home to eat my pizza to get my flowers home. I say officer, what are you talking about? Look at my bag. This is all I have. It was $40 what I just told you I bought for stuff. But you're you're not doing that. And that's just making it difficult for me to believe. We're giving you the benefit of the doubt and having you giving you the ability to show us what you bought. >> I I know. I can't see it though. >> I know >> cuz you did. >> Once you guys come in, you're going to start looking for everything. >> Is there something in the car that shouldn't be in the car? >> No, we're cut off. No, I'm serious. No, I just, you know, went to projects and stuff, but honestly, no. >> In the in the long run, we're not accusing you right now of stealing. We're investigating a theft that may have occurred. That's why we stopped you. It's because we got a license plate. Walmart said you were stealing. We're giving you We're giving you the We're giving you the benefit of the doubt to prove your innocence and you don't want to. And that's okay. But it would be so much easier if you just let us look in the grocery bags. Cuz if you did end up stealing, I'm not saying you did, but if you did end up stealing, we're going to find out. The officer that's at Walmart's coming and he has the video and he's watching the whole store video. We're giving you the benefit of doubt just so if you did not steal, you can prove your innocence and once he gets here it's a mistake. That's what's frustrating. We're trying to help you. >> Well, what do they want from me? >> Well, they're they're accusing you of stealing. They want to press charges. So, this is the deal, right? This is the deal.
