But the loss prevention officer said that we've scanned items and didn't pay for them. She insists the car is a push start and the key was with her boyfriend at home. Though this contradicts how push start systems operate. >> Just can I stand like right there? >> How about this? You sit lean up against your car. How about that? >> Loss prevention reports that the woman has been caught shoplifting at this location before and is likely repeating the same method, scanning items, bagging them, but not paying. >> Um, but they do that all the time. They act like one's trying to pay and the other one walks out, but their pace is like >> But then what happens? Does she then get in the car and they both leave with all the merchandise? >> Yeah, they were in it together, but it's just you can't really prove on our end cuz she didn't walk out with it. Based on what y'all able to do, you know, it's kind of >> they got you. >> Her friend inside the store is also confronted. It's revealed that $1,400 worth of items were scanned, but never paid for some already in the car. [laughter] >> What's wrong? >> Um, well, your friend walked out with hundreds of dollars worth of merchandise and didn't pay for anything. I mean, we're That's what we're doing now. >> You're paying for what? >> She's paying for >> Yes. That's what So, what I'm doing to figure out what's going on. >> How are you paying for all that stuff >> with a car? What do you mean? >> You scanned clothing items. >> I was scanning her. >> Okay. >> And she went over. >> She went over there and scanned stuff. >> Okay. She didn't pay for any of it. She know she didn't pay she didn't give anything to Target in exchange for hundreds of dollars worth of merchandise. She just walked out with it. >> Her story is that you're paying for all of the stuff that she walked out. >> She has she has her own card. I don't know. Okay. >> If like I don't know. >> So she's supposed to pay for her stuff and you're supposed to pay for your stuff. >> Well, our clothes are together but the baby formula and stuff that's someone gave her the card to go to the store to get that. Well, I don't know about week. >> Are you paying for it? >> Or if if you are, then it's already stand unless I'm misunderstanding. >> She's trying to pay for it, but the card is recently hacked or something, >> right? >> So, she was trying to get her friend's card. So, she >> and I just literally started calling her and you walked up to me >> on her friend >> and you telling me this and that's all it's like. >> Right. All right. >> What's going on? >> Well, what's going on is $1,400. Is any of that stuff still here? That's what I'm saying. >> All of it's in the car. >> It was never live in the car. That's what I'm saying. It's >> Oh, it's in the car. No, it ain't. It's in the car. >> Okay. Well, she should be in here. >> Yeah. >> That's all I'm telling you. >> Maybe she should be, but she walked out. She walked out with it all when it was >> when it wasn't paper. >> So, basically, your friend walked out with $1,44963. Oh, she has cuz we've arrested for it before. So, >> so yeah. So, I I got to go figure that stuff out. Police suspect both women coordinated the act. One walks out while the other creates a distraction or partial payment illusion >> or something like that. >> But I'm real close to believing that this is a ruse that she is also using. She's a suspect. I just not the point of putting handcuffs yet. But >> um >> all right. Meanwhile, he's hanging out here in the sun. I'm going to drive over to you. >> Miami. >> I've got tons of I'm a dad. Who's a dad? I'm I'm >> I got you. This ain't cheap. So, what I've >> What I'm looking at is $1,400 of stuff with SC and none of this was scanned. >> So, which means the total amount of things that were removed from the store is $1,400 plus all the stuff. So, I've got loss prevention. Going to figure out how much I'll >> This was when after you finished the the the transaction I wanted you to pay for. She told me to go to the computer. So she put the things on Paul. So when she doing her thing on Paul, we came I came over there and helped bag it up. Then I came out here. I said, "Let me go get the you remember the car was running." So I got the car. Simple as that. And I came out here. She still had the car in her hand. Like >> right here. Here's what here's what it completely looks like to me. >> Well, I'm sorry. And I just want to go feed my daughter. And if I can't if if I can't go I need to hurry up and just go to Publix or something to go do the tweet >> to Publix. We ain't going to Publix. >> It's not normal for one person walk out the store >> and I even I asked the um the people that work in there. I said you did you see they like they didn't even see her walk out. So I that's not understand the guy you talked to either said he didn't because he didn't or said he didn't. He didn't see her walk out. Prevention was watching >> and then listen the lady the two ladies said they didn't see her walk out either. So that's what I'm saying. Well, no one was paying attention. I didn't even notice >> they were. >> Officers informed the detained woman she is likely going to jail as no items were paid for in her story conflicts with her friends. My name is police department cuz I just got out of jail. >> I'm here. >> Okay. >> Yeah. >> As long as I can positively identify you.

Like, >> no. >> I think you're probably going to jail today. >> How? I didn't >> You didn't pay for any of these items. Your friend has You're friend paid for them either. >> We tried to. Her card got Obviously, her card didn't got lost. >> Miss Wilson, that's your name. >> Yes. >> You failed to understand what we explained to you. thought she was paying for it. >> She didn't though. Like she she told us she had no intention of paying for these items. She thought you were paying for them. That's what she just told us. >> Meaning you stole these items. >> I just got done chasing a burglar >> in Frenchtown and then came here for this. >> That's why my pants are all dirty. My >> I'veed her and I told her she's pretty go. She wants to know other stuff. Shami Shama >> Shamika Wilson. >> Is there an I in there somewhere?

She gives a false name and date of birth multiple [music] times, leading officers to suspect she's hiding her identity, possibly due to outstanding warrants. good at our job, right? Like we ain't two day rookies, right? >> All right. Should I just call you Jane Do? >> Is that how you want me to call you J? >> Shea. Shea. >> That's your name. Wilson. >> She Wilson. >> Well, the way you spelled it. >> That's how I am aggravated. Like, I'm just >> Okay, you're aggravated. So, when I look up just a a female with your date of birth with a last name that begins with W, there is zero. >> Look up this. Hook it. Hook up this name, bro. So, here's the deal. This is how it works. If you continue to conceal your identity from us until we get to the jail, and then we find out who you are when we get to the jail cuz we scan your fingerprints and they tell us, "Yeah, this is so and so." >> He resists arrest emotionally, begs not to be taken to jail, and complains about handcuffs. Officers remain professional, but firm, calling the situation ridiculous. >> Stop. Stop. Are you kidding me right now? Get on the ground. >> Get on the ground. >> Not leave me like that. >> Don't knock me out here. I don't want to go to jail. I don't want to go to jail. >> Yeah, cuz you got warrants. >> Don't I just don't want to go to jail. Y'all are going to be nasty. Y'all going to let me go. >> Now you're going in the car. >> You got to be kidding me right now. >> Unbelievable. >> Let me go to jail. No, I'm scared. >> Oh my god. >> Stop. I got her. You bro, I got her. >> Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. >> Oh my god. >> That was ridiculous. What are you doing? or and riceing an officer without violence. Attempting to deceive police during a theft investigation, especially with a prior history, only worsens the situation. Providing false identity and resisting arrest, adds criminal charges and increases the severity of legal consequences. The last incident is that the shoplifter forces cops to drag her from the mall. >> Actually, don't put it in the numbers, but I would put them in. Police responded to a theft report at a Burlington coat factory, but the suspect wasn't a customer. It was one of the store's own employees. >> I'm Julian. I call >> Hi, Julian. I'm officer Gaza. >> Nice to meet you. Thanks for >> So, what's going on? >> Yes. So, we have an employee. Okay. >> Um, she was a cashier, so over four shifts >> starting um on the 23rd of December. Last one was on the 1st. >> Okay. >> She was a cashier. Uh, ring up ring up customers. Customers would hand her the cash. She'd take the cash, put it on the side of the register. But it's a transaction. She takes the cash. Yeah. Yep. I'm shocked that she's still here. Yeah. I can I can show you some clips just just so you can see the demo and everything. >> Well, let's go. Let's go have a chat with her. >> So, um if I read the notes right, it was a total of almost two grand. >> Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. She did it. She admitted to doing it and stuff. >> During a routine audit, the store manager discovered discrepancies in the daily sales records revealing the theft. The same employee had been warned before when her register came up short. But this [music] time, instead of just a warning, she was about to be confronted by a police officer. >> Hi, ma'am. I'm officer Cole. Do you have your ID or driver's license with you today? If I may. So, what do you do for Burlington? >> I'm a cashier. >> My understanding is that you have taken some money while you're working as a cashier in the front. Can you tell me about that? Like what's what's what's the purpose behind all this? >> Money. >> Okay. Short on bills or >> my mom. >> Your mom. >> She's sick. >> Like she's got like cancer. Like really badly sick kind of stuff. How long has she been sick? >> For a while. >> She needs she has surgery medications, >> right? Does she not have insurance or anything? No. So before we go into the other stuff, there are programs out there. >> The officer stayed empathetic while questioning the woman, acknowledging her mother's illness, but making it clear that it didn't excuse her actions. [music] It was a difficult situation for everyone. Yet, there were other ways to get the help she needed without resorting to something illegal. >> A lot of pharmaceutical companies, if you fall short on something, some of them are very well known to assist with payment plans or even potentially doing things for free. Okay. The biggest thing for you and mom is you have to ask the right questions. Okay? With what you've got going on, I I shouldn't be here having this conversation with you. I think we can all empathize with you. That that's that's a very serious thing to have to go through on your own. Okay. But there's help out there. You just have to ask for it. Okay. How many times did this happen? >> Um, a few. >> What's a few? Cuz a few to me might be three or four. It might be seven, eight to you. three or four. >> The officer asked the suspect how she had been stealing the money. Since she was already caught, she didn't bother lying. But what's surprising is that she carried out the thefts in plain view, even with multiple security cameras watching. >> I kept actually [snorts] put it in the numbers, but I would put the money. >> Okay. Were you still given like the customers or change and whatnot, but you just put the money to the side and kept this for yourself? And this happened approximately four times on the same day or different days. >> Different days. [music] Okay. Were any of those like more than one on one day or just all spread across four different shifts? >> Okay. I gota How much is mom's medical expenses? [snorts] >> It's a lot. The surgery alone. >> I got thousands of dollars, >> right? Does anybody else live at home with mom or is it just you and mom? It's just her. >> Okay. So, it would be very disheartening and ill advised for me just to not show some sense of >> The suspect is fortunate to have this particular officer questioning her, but hopefully she's being honest. Stealing is one thing, but lying about something as serious as a family medical crisis would be downright cold-hearted. on what Burley Ting decides to do at this point in time. Is there anybody that would you would need to contact so mom has someone to help her out? A friend, a family member. >> Okay. >> Just me. >> Okay. Do you think mom would be okay for a day by herself if that were to be the case? >> Cuz obviously we don't want to leave mom by herself if she's so badly ill. >> She has to take a medication. She can barely walk. >> Is she bedridden? >> Yeah, basically. Okay. >> Please help him get up. [snorts] >> Okay. Gotcha. All right. Is Burlington wanting to prosecute? >> Uh, yes. >> Okay. [snorts] >> Can I see these videos if you have them? >> These days, it's nearly impossible to steal without getting caught. With state-of-the-art security cameras, police can quickly crack down on burglary and theft, though most criminals don't realize it until it's far too late. >> So, here's an instance. >> Has she seen this? >> Uh, no. No, we haven't shown it to her. >> Okay. Is it against y'all's policy for her to see it? >> Um, no, she can. >> Okay. >> Yeah. Yeah. If you want her to Yeah, that's okay. >> This This is you >> in the black sweater with your hair up. So, is this what you were talking about where you take the customer's cash, you stick it next to the register? [snorts] >> This is December 23rd. >> Yeah, that was the first >> at 8:05. Did you put the money in your pocket just then? Is that what I was seeing? >> Yeah. The catch will go on the side here. >> Okay. Another one at 8:49. Now, how were you folks able to determine the total >> um based on so um watching um the cash being handed and then um the amount that was typed in >> the comparison to the tickets? Comparison. The footage shows the [music] woman taking the money and subtly setting it aside, seemingly placing it next to a coffee cup before continuing with the transaction. If she had just looked up, she would have seen the camera recording her every move. >> So, it was like, you know, 120 cash, all no cash went in, all went to the side. Okay. >> Um, and then based on I could show you um like our reporting what that looks like. It looks like he had did this twice on the 23rd and then this day on the 30th is pretty much the same thing. You put the money next to the register and then you pocket it. And I appreciate your cander, Mrs. Con. I really do. >> Yeah, she was really open. So, >> what's this here? Is at one point you covered up some of the funds with this. Is that like a roll of paper towels or trash bag roll? So based off of the facts and circumstances, Burlington does want to pursue with criminal investigation. Okay. So because of the amount and the pattern of the activity, the way that you conducted yourself, it is a felony. So yes, you're going to be placed under arrest at this time. >> The suspect shows little emotion upon hearing she's going to jail. In a compassionate gesture, the officer [music] allows her to text or call her mother to let her know about the situation. All right. But at the end of the day, I want to make sure mom's okay as well. So, if there's something that we need to call for, let's do that. Um, the next thing is I can call the Department of Children and Families and just say, "Hey, look, you know, unfortunately the daughter was placed under arrest today. Mom's, you know, in her mid to late 50s. She's very sick, >> which is what led to the to the incident. So, we're just a little concerned for mom. Someone can just go and do a well-being check on her, make sure that she's okay, and offer her some services if she needs it." >> So, Essentially what it this is is there's a bond schedule that we have to look at. All right. What the bond schedule is is you pay a certain amount of money to a bondsman, some form of collateral, and you can get out within a few hours. If you're unable to bond yourself out of jail or have someone bond you out, you would have to go to first appearance in the morning. Okay? And then the judge will look over all the paperwork, everything that you have talked about that I'm going to put in that paperwork, and they'll make a determination from there. you know, especially if you don't have any other previous criminal history or anything like that, if they'll let you go. >> Before the suspect was escorted out, the manager took a moment to wish her mother well. The employee was arrested and charged with grand theft, but in the end, she received only 9 months of probation. Stealing might seem easy at the moment, but the truth always comes out. No hardship justifies breaking the law. >> Okay, I'm going to go back and go with my >> Okay. No, you're not. You're fitting to put your stuff down and you're going to be escorted out of the store. If you come back on the store for >> Police Confront a contractor at Lowe's, informing him he's under arrest for grand theft related to multiple theft incidents totaling over $15,000 in merchandise. >> Hello. Hi. What's going on today? So, I am actually calling to report a series of thefts that were discovered based off of uh a credit card investigation. So, let me let me pull it up. I wasn't sure when we would here. So I have uh eight cases here that should be under one case number and it consists of a guy who goes to selfch checkout and he will fail to scan items um but items like doors and wards and other things along that same line. Would you like me to break down each instance or >> when did they start? >> So, >> when did he start doing this? What date was that? >> So, it's it's it's way it's been months. Uh >> loss prevention explains that the suspect repeatedly used selfch checkout to avoid scanning large items, doors, lumber, etc. with at least eight confirmed cases in the past month. >> Actually been shopping at this store for years. Um, so when I do look back at the transactions, it goes for as long as I can have access to transactions, which means it's been going on a long time. But, um, I I can't pull video for the rest of my life on this guy. So, um, how would you like to I don't know, gather information? Do you want me to go down the line and show you the particular transaction issues or would you like me to send you a screenshot of the total and the date with >> Am I stressing you out? >> No, it's just anything over 30 days they're not going to look at. Well, >> the credit card is under his name. So, the case itself, >> I just spoke to the detectives before coming. Anything over [clears throat] 30 days, they're not they're not looking at. >> So, what was what was the most recent? Let's start there. >> So, the most recent one, which I >> And how was this brought to Lowe's attention? >> So, a cashier actually noticed that this guy had a cart full of lumber and he had only scanned a couple pieces. And you know, >> investigators note the contractor has shopped at the store for years and suspicions grew after a cashier noticed discrepancies between scanned items and what was in his cart >> system to find all the other purchases that had taken place for the last few months. And I only focused on the month within the 30 days to look at all the other transactions in which uh similar occurrences had happened. He comes in here like every other day. Um on the most recent occurrence in which he did do this, I actually saw him in person, but it was only at the tail end. I saw him exit the building >> and I uh wasn't. >> So, what's the most What's the most recent? >> It is 127 355. >> So, he goes through checkout, selfch checkout. He doesn't scan >> most of what he has. >> Okay. Um, I actually did talk to, um, ironically enough, I don't know if you know who, um, well, one of the state prosecutors was in here earlier and I mentioned this case to him and I asked him, "Hey, I plan on filing it this way." >> Loss Prevention traced the thefts through his credit card and rewards account, providing undeniable links to the fraudulent transactions >> because of the 30-day period. And I know that, you know, you haven't been taking cases because of that type of issue, but because it goes back to his credit card, which is undeniably him, I think there's a lot less plausible deniability on who it is. Uh, he also has a rewards account with us that he likes to use, too. So, that's nice. >> I'm a late start, but Kayla, you had yours on, right? Okay, perfect. So, we all uh do we need anything else in here? I mean, he looks very familiar, actually. And I >> He's super friendly to everyone. >> Of course he is. >> Which is how he gets away with it. >> The con. That's exactly what that is. And I guarantee you, do you have counterparts with um um >> Target? >> Target and Home Depot. >> No. >> Officers confirm probable cause and discuss coordination with prosecutors, noting the suspect's pattern likely extends to other stores like Home Depot or Target. Well, I'm not concerned about that. So, I need to see your ID when you're done. >> Mr. Rand, how tall are you? >> How tall are you? >> I'm 11. And how much you weigh? 204. Okay. Okay, just gonna hold on that one for a second. It's the 51. >> Okay. Uh, want to issue a trespass? >> I'm going to go down here and talk to David. But >> no, you're not. >> She's in charge. She makes the decision. You're being issued a trespass warning for you right now. If you come back on the property for a period of one year, you'll be arrested. >> What is this? Cuz I'm in here buying stuff through my pro account and business every day. Not an issue. Just don't trespass. >> You're just going to be trespassed right now for up to a year. So, we just don't want you to come back onto the property, >> whether that's to purchase anything or not. >> Okay. I'm going to go back with Okay. No, you're not.

That's his >> detectives show him surveillance footage and receipts comparing what he scanned versus what he took, confirming systematic theft. >> As soon as I can. Okay. >> Okay. Um, if you'd like, we'll go to an office here real quick and talk about it. I'll show you all the pictures and everything. Um, the loss prevention officers here have done their due diligence and research. >> I didn't realize that. >> Provided complete surveillance video and everything of you at the register with a copy of each receipt for each time you scan something at the register and compared to what's on the cart you push out the store and what you scan and pay for. Police arranged to secure his truck and belongings after arrest, allowing him to make a phone call to his wife. >> You okay with that? >> Yeah. >> This truck. You want your phone though? You want to keep it? >> No. My wife. >> Arrested and charged with felony grand theft. >> The contractor is arrested. charged with felony grand theft, sentenced to 15 years probation, and ordered to pay $15,000 in restitution. Stealing may seem easy at the moment, but surveillance and records always catch up. Shortcuts through dishonesty can cost years of freedom and thousands in restitution.

She insists she returned the glasses or claims it was a vape in her pocket. >> Going right now, >> so I won't miss my flight. >> All right. So, we're going to ask you a quick question. So saw you on camera grab an item. So where is it? >> I don't have it. I'm going to tell you the truth. >> So So where'd you put it? >> I put it back.

We watched the video camera. We did see you take the glasses. We did see you putting your persons and we saw you walk out. We didn't see you go back in and give it back to her. So my next question is where is it? Where did you put it? >> I handed them back to her. >> Not according to the video. You walked out. >> You didn't tell me. Okay. So where's that? >> So So I'm asking you where did you put it? >> I didn't put them nowhere. I gave them back to her. >> Not according to the video footage. >> Well, I gave them back to her. >> Not in the video footage. So she I might have a look alike or something, but I don't have no glasses. >> It says you see Georgia bulldogs. You got blue shoes. Exactly. But you can't hold me accountable for something that I don't got. >> So we could because on video and it shows you walking out with never coming back. You never gave it back to her. >> She said when you touch your glasses, give them back to me for sanitary purposes. I handed her the glasses back for her to >> You know what?
