where where were you working prior to this before I had a couple different jobs before um I even worked at house that's who the uh the check belonged to from the bank but that was way like last year I

before and during questioning do you understand yes yes if you cannot afford a lawyer and want one one be provided for you before questioning without charge do you understand yes has anyone threaten you or promise you anything to get you to talk to me no okay so you just mentioned U about the check obviously yeah exactly yeah the check was written to me um now I'm not sure about who but one of my co-workers said that the agency that we was working at because we was working at a lady's house doing um Dem like demolition work and cleaning cleaning up the yard yard work and stuff like that so basically um my coworker said that the staff and agency give him the check to give to me cu the staffing agency been trying to contact me to come pick up the check M so he came with the check for me to um for me to cash it out who's this coworker I don't know his name he go by we call him Platinum Platinum yeah that's his nickname I don't know his real name okay so from my understanding you still work at this lady's house do you remember her name no it started with a a I'm not sure did no I'm saying it started with a it was given to us by the staffing agency okay to work at our house for demolition work okay so and that was like early in the year early in what year this year early this year like year give me like January January this year yeah so you work on her house during demolition exactly okay what was going on was she remodeling her home or yeah that's basically what's going on she was remodeling yeah okay so but it was her her husband I'm not sure who was there but we were just given a job by the staffing agency okay what did she look like I don't know what she look like I don't even think I ever seen her there's a couple people that that be there but but you just name her her husband and so obviously you met her before there's a couple people there there's a different set of ladies a couple ladies and I know her husband okay what's her husband's name I don't know his name I didn't know him CU he's the one that comes talk to us he'll give us food he'll give us drinks things like that so I've been in contact with him okay and what area in the home were you demoing I don't know whatever part she was um reconstructing so you don't know what you were doing what kind of work you were doing no we was doing yard work cleaning up the yard okay and she was doing she was reconstructing one part of her home but we was working on the outside okay cleaning up after the construction workers did what they did okay yeah and this is early of this year yeah either early this year yeah how long did that job last say it again how long did the job last we was there about two three weeks okay you remember the address no I can't remember the address how you remember what home look like yeah it was on um the main part was like a cream color kind of like this shade but a little darker okay and the roof is like the same color but even darker both cream colors but one plain cream color for the house and the roof was like a darker gream color Okay so this staffing agency um it's customary for them to get the check not you and then you pick up the check exactly from the sing agency and then the staffing agency been trying to get in contact with me that's what my coworker told me but they I I already changed my number this year so I guess that's what happened and then he said well I have a check here for you from the staff and agency from the house that we worked on okay and then by the time when I um went to the bank the bank owner um whoever I talked to at the bank he said that the lady was dead mhm so that that would triggered me like when he was acting funny that would triggered me to say I don't know what they got going on with the checks and things like that so that's when I was lost at okay so what did you tell the tell her after she told you that but well before she told you that the lady was deceased what did you tell her did you tell her anything about the check or anything or how you got the check no I just told her that the Staff Agency is who um gave out the check for us okay um so why did you run from the police because my friend told me to run and I didn't know who the hell was behind me when I was coming to the car my friend yell out run so I ran into the car well I don't understand so this is a check that you believe that you deserve right you did some work for okay um if you believe that you earned this check why would you run from the police no I didn't know there was a police at first until after after the fact my friend he yelled out the window run run I didn't know what the hell was going on did you hear anybody say stop after a while yeah and I kept running no I was scared so you didn't you heard someone say stop did you know if it was the know it was okay okay all right so this is the check that was issued to you correct exactly yeah okay and this is the lady exactly yeah Angeline as yeah and you say you never met her before I don't know if I met her I never like there's a couple ladies that was at the house at the time I didn't know who hand I was shaking they didn't say you know the name they probably did say the name but I didn't know who exactly was who and things like that and we only met them like one or two times the main person who was coming to us was I believe was her husband cuz he was talking about you know talking about different things at a house so it had to be a husband and he was the one that was bringing us snacks bringing us water and things like that for all the um construction workers that was there he was the main one that was on the site okay and and then there's another person who work my coworker is who brought me the check the other person who is with me there okay so why is it took you this long to get your check I don't he said it was as if it was a tip from the um from them say what now like a tip from them because we was already paid for that from the staffing agency so you were already paid for this particular exactly from the staff agency that's who pays us okay yeah but so when I seen that check I'm like this check is not from the staffing agency he said basically a tip and then they gave it out to the um Staff Agency you didn't think that was a little odd I did think it was a little odd yeah but it kind of makes sense because it was a couple of us that was working there me Sean and him so you already got paid for this job exactly but I'm thinking the check was basically a tip but back in January of this year yeah that was way yeah that was a long time ago it's a long time ago and then here we are in almost in November exactly yeah and you believe that this is a tip y I mean why not it really don't sound convincing I'm just telling you what he told what extra work did you do what you mean what extra work I did to receive 600 and something $620 I thought they was being generous I don't know listen I don't know I'm telling you what the man told me when he bought the check well see the problem is is that if you done work back in January this check was issued a couple days ago or I'm sorry it was written out it's dated a couple days ago yeah the 28th okay to me I don't see myself giving somebody a tip for work that they did back in January why wait this long I didn't I should have questioned it but I didn't really think to question it I just said whatever you see how suspicious all of this yeah exactly I know it it hit me after the fact like I said I didn't think of all this before the fact so what happened to your your friend who was in the car that told you they left why did they leave you exactly cuz now I know that something obviously funny going exctly I don't know what that me no I know something's funny is going on it's obvious I'm here right now in handcuffed so who are these people cuz obviously you're in handcuffs Sean and the other one his name Platinum that was we call them okay the one that gave you the check yeah it came from Platinum yeah so how long you've been friends with these guys I known them for I say about a year okay so they left you yep and now you covering for him because obviously Platinum gave you this check y I don't know his name this seems a little odd here it it does seem odd I mean I'm just telling you what he presented me with I'm thinking it's really from the staff and agency it was a tip left by the people of the house CU we did work on their house and I'm thinking it's just a tip well here's the thing the problem with your story is that you're not being truthful because when you went into the bank you told the teller that this is for um maintenance work exactly okay the the problem with that is it's not even about a story I'm just telling you what the man told me when he came to me with the check I mean so do you have a contact information for this oh staffing agency I'm not sure with staffing agency I have a contact person for the person who gave me to check well you work for the staffing agency right yeah I'm not I work for several staffing agencies I'm not exactly about this specific staffing agency that you used to work for what was the name of it I'm not sure that's what I'm you know how much staffing agencies I work for you told us you just told us this thing of a staffing agency I told you the one I work for right now the Remedy Staffing Agency I work for Team Staffing Staff Zone I work for a bunch of staffing agencies so this is not the same told I can find out all of this here's the problem you just told me that the staffing agency is the one who had this particular check exactly that your friend Platinum picked up the check from the Staff Agency why would he pick up a check that belong to listen I'm trying to tell you it sounds funny now yeah yes I understand that all of this stuff sounds funny yes I mean what can I do all this stuff sounds funny I I should have thought about it before but and like I said I got all the contact information you could definitely contact them and the C they was in and all that stuff he got all the answers to the questions well you're the one with the check you're the one sitting in the room yeah exactly gave me the check why wouldn't he casat it himself how can he c a check that's in my name why would you get a $600 tip how much did he get ask him that you're with him he's taking you to the bank to cash a check why is he the one taking you the thing to cash a check I ask him you not understand asking you're the one sit here have cuz I need to ride to the bank and he's the one who gave me the check uh can you take me to the bank to cash it out simple as that I mean this is just regular everyday stuff like a $600 tip from a job you did almost a year ago that's not regular everyday stuff I mean I thought said don't make any now when you think about it yes it does not make sense at the time you're just like okay I guess they're being generous Elijah you've been arrested before yeah I've been arrested for What charges I mean that has nothing to do with um what's going on right now okay but I'm curious disect I'm just curious I mean you have my name you can look it up and I said all that has nothing to do with what's going on right now I'm just saying I want to talk about what's going on right now okay are you on probation or anything no I'm not okay so can I verify that you actually are employed yesing yes okay and and uh several other staffing agencies so how many staffing agencies have you worked for this year a lot a lot be honest L what's a lot I say about four okay team staffen Remy Staffing Staff Zone which one does platinum work for he he still works for the same staffing agency which one I don't know I don't know the name he works for the same staffing agency that's what made me think that okay yeah he still works for that same staffing agency who employed us with the work to work on the L's home he still works there up to this day but you don't know his name and you don't know the staffing agency I don't know his name by his real name and the staffing agency I had I he just came to me and said hey man you know the staffing agency got a check for you for the house that we worked on as a tip I said okay uh give me the check when he came the check was already written up but when he called me he asked yeah how you spell your name you make sure the check um is for you and I spell out my name for him that's it is all adding up to me now exactly what's going on and when he came to me the check was already written out in my name and I signed the back of the check and told me hey take me to the bank cuz I don't have a riot to the bank and he still work for that same staffing agency right now he just told me yeah I I just picked up checks for you a couple days ago cuz she said the staff agcy was trying to get in contact with you to give you the check and they can't get in contact with you and it made sense because I changed my number so it may but I see I see exactly what's going on so when you received a check back in January did it look like this no I got a regular check from staff and agency from yeah direct deposit I didn't even get a check I got direct deposit okay direct deposit so how you when you do jobs through the staffing agency they're the ones who give you the checks receive a check from so how did you know that this was the the people you did work on cuz you didn't give me the address you didn't give me it's what he said I'm I'm just going off what he said you just going y was to grab him right now your name is on this check and you're the one who uttered this check so obviously you're telling me that maintenance work from you did you can't remember the person who you did work for you don't know where this staff an agency I mean I don't know you don't know any that's the problem you don't know the name you don't know the address agency we worked for several houses you don't know the name of the house you don't know the name of the person you can't describe them but you can remember that you got a $600 check from cuz it's right here in my face we talking about something that happened in January with a couple different I work for several staffing agencies and worked coule how many $600 checks have you gotten that's a tip that's one tip right I've never gotten a tip exactly but to me it was a generous it was to me it was something generous I don't know I hear about story like this all the time so when you first got that I'm just I'm curious though when you first got that you thought okay this is normal this is when he said it was a tip because I looked at the check and said well this not from the staffing agency so obvious you thought it was completely legit a tip I thought it was a tip for real so you took to the bank okay this is a good check no problem at all you're not understanding then when the bank told me I'm sorry but and when the bank told me what happened I sat down at the bank tried to call him to see hey man what's the name of the staffing agency because they're saying that the person is dead or whatever the um teller was telling me at the bank and then what did you do after that he said he G to um find out the name of the St agency and send what did you do after that I sat down at the bank after you sat down I sat down and waited on him no you didn't the hell you talking about you took off once they took so you see how long they took so you you left your you left your ID at the bank and ran no I went to the car to see what was the name of the staff and agency when I'm going to the car he's telling me run but you left your ID inside because the teller said he has to confirm I wasn't leaving there without my ID the teller said he has to confirm in order for me to get back my ID that's when I text him and said hey man what's the name of the um Staff Agency so that the staff and agency can call the teller and confirm this check he taking long to reply I went out to the car when I go out to the car they yelling out run run run and I ran to the car so you just do what people tell you to do if it makes sense well what makes sense is you knew that the check was not legit I didn't know it was legit in there you left the bank you tried to get into the car your buddies left you you don't see how long I sat in the bank trying to confirm the check yeah why not wait it's a $600 check I'm trying to get a confirm I think I could wait a little while if it's a legitimate $600 check I mean at some point you got to look at this and say okay none of none of what none of what I'm saying makes sense either I mean everything I say makes sense really I'm telling you exactly what maybe that's part of the problem then because it doesn't make sense I'm telling you exactly what happened brother well the problem is it probably would make sense if you did stay right thinking that this check is legit telling you I don't know the staffing agency I'm trying to call the staffing agency to call Bank can you guys confirm the um um the check he's in the car taking long to tell me what's the name of the staffing agency I went out to the car to get the name of the Staff Agency I'm not leaving it why my ID I need my ID but this is the person that gave you this check right exactly yeah okay the the problem is is that you have a lot of guilty actions along with what you're telling us yeah I ran yeah yeah when they said run yall ran why did they say R I didn't know what was going on cuz obviously they're guilty I mean it's clear as day what's going on now can you be just as guilty as them no I'm not as guilty as them they the ones call me to tell me I have a check in my name from the staffing agency it's just odd that they gave you the check when when did you receive this check what you when I received it they came to me with the check today today yes so you don't have a car obviously cuz you you didn't drive you got to ride right so they just give you this check and then they go with you to the bank so you can cash this check yeah what kind of cut was they G to get you what kind of cut was they going to get was GNA get no cut for my check it's my tip they just doing you a favor right they take giving you a ride go most give them some gas money to for taking me okay I'm just saying it's just they told you to run you run because obviously you knew the check was bad I didn't know it was bad a bad check you did know because the told I yeah the bank told me it sure did just I understand everything was going on now it all makes sense so I understand yeah it does make sense right so you do understand that what you did was it didn't make sense and obviously you knew that the check was bad I did not know the check was bad that's what you not understanding I just told you everything that he told me before he even came to me with the check on the phone just because you tell us doesn't mean that it makes sense just because you make sense though I mean you s right I mean it doesn't matter to me I'm just telling you everything that he told me on the phone what doesn't matter to you what you mean what doesn't you said it doesn't matter to me what doesn't matter to you I don't even know I'm just telling you everything that happened on the phone I mean you believe this guy named Platinum you don't even know I can get I can find out his name and tell you I don't know his government I never sat down and say hey bro PL you you haven't worked for him that long you seem you only appear as if y'all coworkers he he from the Virgin Island too you know him for I just told you I know him for a year okay we go to staffing agencies together we say hey this staffing agency is hiring for $20 let's go there together M we've been doing this so you work the same place you're going to know your coworker's real name no you're not why not you never sat down and act say bro what's your real name you just calling by their nickname you I don't know none of my coworkers real name well he knew your name because you had the check in your name you knew who to call no he knew my name I him on the phone he said yeah bro what's your name called up every person from the staffing agency to figure out who it was I me come on that doesn't make any sense but it doesn't make sense now yes I understand that does okay so this check was received by the staffing agency and he went and picked it up obviously he got a check too right so I can call this Remedy Staffing or whatever staffing agency it was you just them and they confirm with me that they had possession of this check exctly the problem is that would not give a check to some random person this is your name on here I I've done did it before with staff and agency that's how it complet it kind of like made it seem real cuz I didn't did it before oh can you give this check because they know that we be together a lot hey can you give this check to him if he's not coming into work I've done did it before you did it to who for a couple people before yeah you honestly working at a job okay have you done it for platinum before no I never done it for platinum and you trusted that he was going to give you the check yes why not the check is in my name I don't know about you any place I work if they had a check for me I'm the person that's going to pick up the check I mean listen I'm pretty sure that's how most staffing agencies work too so whatever you're saying whatever you're Conjuring in your brain right now does not make sense I know it doesn't make sense I know so how about you just really tell us what's going on because obviously it might be a bigger bigger thing than what we know I'm telling you exactly what's going on I can get their contact information for you guys to contact them give us and see platinum and and the other one Sean but you don't know I don't know who Platinum is you can't give me his real name so how do I know I'm contacting real name I don't know his real name I know my Facebook he's on your Facebook yeah he's on my Facebook what's your Facebook I'm not giving you my Facebook I'll give you his Facebook well how am I supposed to verify you don't want me to get your Facebook but how am I supposed to verify that this Platinum is on your Facebook he's friends with you I'm not giving him my Facebook I'm just not sorry well I mean that doesn't sound like somebody who's trying to claim their innocence in this situation because you guys obviously don't believe me so well we're trying to you said you don't believe it I know said I don't believe it you said yeah you're right the story doesn't make sense you said that probably three or four times I don't believe what now I don't believe everything that he told me about the check what I just said yeah so how you you wonder why we wouldn't believe you you don't believe in yourself so let me let me ask you a couple questions okay how did how did you get there your friend picked you up right yes who was driving Sean was driving who I'm sorry Sean Sean okay whose car was it Sean car okay what kind of car is it a white Mercedes And as far as you know it belongs to Sean yeah does he drive that have you seen him in that car before yes okay all of us are good friends I've known these guys for a year we go to staff and agencies together okay so you all four four right no three of us just three of all three of you work together at Staffing agenes yes you've worked at multi multiple Staffing all right so you he called you before hand though says he I got a check for you yeah yesterday when he called me he said tomorrow in the day we can go and cash a check all right so you guys make plans he picked you up today exactly you head over there you're in the bank they're telling you something's not right so you're texting back and forth with him hey what's the deal what's the deal but he's not answering I'm trying to tell him what's the what's the name of the staffing agency that we work for for the lady house right so you're trying to get him on text but he's not not exactly you're saying everything I'm trying to say yes I'm just making sure I understood right so you have text messages in your phone that say no I called them you just said you texted I just asked that three times he's on the phone here you go again no I called him I did call him I see that you change it every time conveniently everything everything that you want us to use to verify you just conveniently change it you know that there's when you go to a bank I mean it's it's obviously witnesses there correct yes it's a lot of people it's day it's day time uh Witnesses say that you were trying to get in the car and they lock you out that's the reason why you ran yeah I was trying to get in the car they keep telling me run to the car why wouldn't they let you in the car ma'am I don't know they obviously left me though I mean why do because they're guilty of what the hell is going on well maybe you are too I'm oh my God all right elah if you want to you know play this game at the end of the day I'm telling you everything exactly about to damn check you're not that's the problem what do you want me to say I want you to tell the truth all three of us in this room know that what you're telling us is not true well you think is the truth tell me I said what you think it doesn't matter what I think I want the truth it doesn't matter what I think I'm telling you what the man you guys could go and go look for them and get them you never received a tip never received a $600 tip never received a $600 tip from job you did a year ago from a house you didn't know where it was from a person that you couldn't describe from a house you couldn't describe I just told you how the house look and the people all I can say is they're white I mean you want me to say white they're white people I can't describe how a white person look I don't know the you impressed them so much they gave you a $600 tip a year later you said what you but you impressed them so much with your work no I'm thinking they gave everybody a tip who worked for uh remedy staffen you said that whichever uh staff was yeah well the problem is is that this job was done like I could see if this job you told me this job was done 20 January 2020 early of this year yeah the check was written 1028 of this year a couple days ago exactly and the woman died in December December when that's what the teller told me when he let that check he said yeah but this lady here whose name is on the check has died back in um December and when you found out that information what did it register in your mind what the hell is going on because the tell started watching me funny then I asked him all right can I just get my ID he said no we have to um in order I have what it say have to confirm something for you to get your ID back so he said call the staff and agency that you work for to see to have them call him directly that's when I got on the phone I sat there trying to call uh what's his name answer said he acting like he don't know the name of the staffing agency and I went out to the car to see what what the deal was what's the name of the staffing agency so they can uh call these people is there anything else you want to tell us that did everything it is to it I mean I don't know that um information Sean I just know him as Sean Platinum we just know him as platinum and I know it's Facebook but you don't want to get that up I know his Facebook is platinum King you know ask me you ask me for my Facebook okay Platinum King he's the one that gave you the check yes Platinum King he worked for the staffing agency as well he still works at the same staffing agency okay do you know anybody at the staffing agency that you dealt with directly I'm I'm not even too sure which which exactly staffing agency is it I have to go through my records and see you not sure which but you are sure that he works for the same one yeah because he the one picked up the check but it's you said y'all both go to staffing agencies together yeah but right now we don't work at the same one right now I work at remedy right now obviously at the time y'all were at the same yeah exactly so the name of that one cuz you know that's what I'm trying to figure out I told you I called him in the bank to see what was the name of the staffing agency I mean how old are you elij I'm 24 24 years old your memory is I work with different staffing agencies I mean come on man hey but you don't remember their names you don't remember your friends names no it's not about remembering it I don't know my friend's name and I don't know I I just told you it can be Team Staffing it can be Staff Zone it can be Remedy Staffing I'm not sure which Staffing exactly which staffing agency is it at the time we're talking about in the span of maybe what 10 months you switch from four different staffing agency yes if a staffing agency is hiring for more and a better job and it's better conditions yeah I switch over to staffing agencies I always do this all right well I mean truth of the matter is your name is on the chat so you're going to be held accountable for that for what you pass that check at the bank pass you can give us any additional information what check counterfeit check so the check is fake the lady's dead she couldn't have written it two days ago she didn't write it for you somebody had to sign a check yeah yeah it was fun has he done this before I don't know he I just told you what he just did I'm just asking you you know him you said you've known him for a year whatever that's from the same same area is kind of stuff he does no he just came to me with a check man I mean you got understand what I'm saying well explain it I'm trying to understand it I just just told you everything the man just told me step by step do I can remember he had a check for me that was in my name he said bro the Taff agency got a check for you that came from the house that we worked on earlier in so the 28th today the 31st the 28th was was it Friday Friday I didn't even know the lady was dead until the teller just told me a don't called you yesterday for a check he had on Friday I don't talk about day just called me I mean listen it all hit me after everything that happened I se yeah Platinum was up to something funny I didn't think he was up to S funny at first how you been doing financially I'm okay I work why ask the question because you know it is hard times I mean we dealing with inflation and uh just you know Co is still out there so a lot of people are still following a hard time so I asked this question because you know obviously uh many of us acting on you know it is rough out there so when we do when it's rough we kind of do Extreme Measures to you know survive yeah but Platinum them doing the Extreme Measures well I can't I don't know who Platinum is I can't I'm I'm only looking at the person I'm seeing right now and that's you Elijah so you have any children no children I do pretty good for myself I work I stay working um I have my own that I'm running out and I'm just saing up to get a car okay how usually how how do you get around usually Uber live or get a ride and I'm still waiting on my tax check absolutely no reason for me to um do nothing like that [ __ ] he obviously out the check I don't know his real name to give you his real name I I don't if I had his real name I'd gave it to you cuz that I didn't write out the check I mean he could have wrote check but the problem is you endorsed it your signature is on the back correct yeah I signed a check well you signed a check it has your name on it how can you prove that you you even got paid for this particular job that proof If I go back in my bank statements I can provide that or if I could get the name of the if I get the name of the saff agency all this would make sense well they I don't think the saff agency even uh made the check now now I know it's Platinum you remember how much you got paid for that job it was like a regular job four or 500 maybe deposit and how many weeks you did on the jop two to three weeks and only $500 each week each week you get $500 yeah about four or500 just a regular um way and then on top of that you got a $620 chip tip so you got paid more in the tip money than I thought they were just being generous I mean you never heard of somebody being generous for their workers who worked on their house and things like that I've heard many stories like that that's why I thought it was one of those just things hey they're just being generous and giving out a tip for everybody that worked there how many people worked on the job site it was a lot of us they had the construction C workers then they had us who work for the staffing agency to clean up all we did was clean up how big is this house it's it's not a mansion it's like a medium size house like a big house is it one story no it's a one story but it's spread it out like it's a wide house and all of these people you believe got tips listen I didn't think if somebody came and said me hey I got a tip I mean you got a tip from a job that you work I didn't think well how many people work there how many people got tips like that don't run my head well the problem is this is a personal check that was written out to you and if it's a staffing agency they why wouldn't they write it to the Staffing how would this guy know to write it out to you Elijah I don't know me personally if I was thinking I would I thought they would do that to uh everybody they ask St agency hey who's everybody that worked at the job because we were the lowest paid workers too you know all we doing was cleaning up but how would how would they know to issue you directly the check I'm thinking they issued everybody who's working for the staffing agency issued it to everybody so Platinum got one that's what I'm saying I thought he got one at the time I don't know what's going on now did he tell you he said everybody who worked at Staffing the the staffing agency who worked on the site got a check a tip months later after the job was done all right all right L that's your story you sticking to it you have any all right it's complete s interview he was charged with uttering a forged check defrauding a financial institution and resisting arrest share your thoughts in the comments below and don't
