The whole car looks a mess cuz I lost my wallet. >> And your your your intention is to do that with a child. >> You got the grill on the mess up. >> You got the grill. >> Don't mess up your watch. >> Mhm. >> Shoplifting is often dismissed as a minor crime, especially when it involves small items. But the reality is some offenders [music] escalate the situation far beyond petty theft. What begins as a simple shoplifting incident can quickly spiral into a serious legal matter. >> Make sure it's all of it because like I said, you're going to get searched back then and if you don't turn it over now, we're going to charge you. >> On September 4th, 2024 in Melbourne, New Jersey police were called to a shopping mall to apprehend an alleged shoplifter. They spotted the woman just as she was leaving Victoria's Secret and heading in the direction of Bloomingdales. >> She's walking towards Bloomingdales uh by Victoria Secret. I'm trying to catch up. Hi ma'am. Stop right there. >> Hi, I'm officer delay. Came over. Please just see where you're recording on body cam. Okay. Stand over here for me. >> Okay. >> Right over here. Okay. Um, were you shopping any stores today? >> Yeah, I just came to the mall. >> Okay. So, I'm just going to read your rights real quick. You have your right to just listen here. You have your the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of law. >> Hello. >> Why is it recording? What's going on? >> Relax. Let me finish my statement. >> What's going on? >> I'm going to answer your questions after I read my statement. >> Hello. Why am I >> stopped by Craton Barrel? >> Crate and Barrel. >> I don't want no Cran Barrel. >> Right. Are you going to listen or you going to talk? >> Okay. So, you have the right to remain silent. >> Any officer will tell you that talking on the phone while being questioned is a sign of disrespect. It shows a bad attitude and a reluctance to be open and truthful. But in this case, the shoplifter had much bigger problems to worry about. >> Store were you in today? >> I went into I forgot where I went into before that. >> Okay. All right. >> Did you conceal any merchandise on you? Did you take any clothing? >> Cuz we're going to go to the store and look at the cameras. So, >> okay. >> Hello. >> So, did you take any clothing? >> No, I did not. >> Okay. Can you just do me a favor? Hang up the phone real quick while I'm speaking with you.

You're just being detained at this time. >> Detained for what though, officer? >> For potentially shoplifting. for potentially. Not for actually potentially. >> So, you're matching the description of somebody that reported shoplifting in a store. >> I just literally got to this mall. >> So, we're looking at camera footage right now. >> Okay. >> If you didn't shoplift, you'll be on your way. That's it. >> Okay. >> Okay. >> What's the phone number for you? >> Do you want to My phone's getting cut off. leave like one of my mom number 347 >> 261 >> 247 >> I'm sorry >> 247 >> no >> the woman turned out to be a terrible liar. She claimed the phone she was on was getting cut [music] off and then gave the officer a blatantly fake number. Lying about your identity is not only illegal but also incredibly [music] risky. And in this case it wouldn't have mattered anyway because video footage doesn't lie. >> So what did you take from the store? I didn't see for what store. >> What's in your dress that you pic took from the store? You're on camera. >> What camera? I'm on office. >> Every camera that's in the store you putting stuff in your dress. >> In what store? >> So, I'm going to let me explain how this is going to go down. Okay. >> Yeah. >> I'm going to hold on to your phone. >> So, you're going to be placed under arrest and then you're going to be searched and we're going to find the items. Either you can just give them to us now >> or when we have an officer come and search you and find the items, then we can charge you additionally. >> Okay. And what happened? >> Yo, tomorrow's my daughter's birthday. >> Okay. >> My kids are going back to school tomorrow. >> Is that why you took the items? >> Oh, my my daughter has school and her birthday tomorrow. >> Okay.

Like >> we are. >> So, >> either either way, we need the items back. Whether we get >> do it right here. >> Are they tucked in there or can you just pull them out? >> Like I don't feel like I don't feel comfortable doing it right here. >> Okay. All right. >> Is there like a corner I could go into? >> Let's go in this corridor over here. Okay. I just need you to take your purse off real quick. You can keep everything in there. >> Can I lose money? >> It's all coming with you. It's all coming with you. We're going to hold on to it. >> We're going to hold on to it. The woman then tried to play the sympathy card, claiming she was stealing for her children. But that excuse quickly fell apart after all what could her kids possibly need from Victoria's Secret. >> Right here. >> Just walk. >> Yes. >> And whenever you have it, you just throw on the ground. Okay. >> Make sure it's all of it because like I said, you're going to get searched back then and if you don't turn it over now, we're going to charge you additionally. >> Okay. Am I going to make my daughter tomorrow? >> Yes, >> there's a lot of >> Okay, just confirm. Confirm that's everything. >> I said confirm that's everything that's on you. >> Make sure that's everything that's on you. Definitely nothing else in there. [music] Like that. It's a New York elephant's up. [music] >> That's going to make you fall. >> That's definitely it, right? Cuz I'm telling you, you're going to get searched. She's going to go under your dress. >> I don't know about you, but this scene felt more like a circus act. Like clowns pulling an endless string of colored scarves out of their pockets. Honestly, how is it even possible to stuff that much stolen merchandise into a pair of underwear? >> Can you just take the dress off? I mean, you have pants underneath, right? Okay. take it off. I have nothing. I'm sorry. >> You don't want to take it off? Okay. Like I said, as long What's this strap here? >> All right. So, like I said, you're going to get searched when we get down there. If there's more merchandise, it could be an issue. >> Can Can you just be honest with me? >> What's up? >> I'm going to go make your phone deliver. >> Yes. Like I said, you were pretty transparent, right? You did admit to it. >> Show you my date of birth. >> Listen, listen. Listen. I'm going to work with you. Okay. You You gave me everything back, right? >> So, are you going to get arrested? Yes. You're going to get processed. I will do my best to get you out of here today. Okay. >> Okay. >> All right. Just come over here and All right. Come over here and stand on the wall. >> Put your hands behind your back. My phone number. >> It's It's all going to come with you. I'm going to let you make a phone call when we get back to the police department. Okay. >> Unlock your fingers. >> The officer handled the situation with remarkable patience and professionalism since the woman didn't resist or put up a fight. The process was straightforward. She'd be booked and then quickly released. Can I something else? >> What's up? >> That's my my son is trying to salon. The money I have in my bag is to buy the sneakers for school tomorrow. >> Well, like I said, all your money, all your property is going to come with you. When you're released, you're going to get it back. We're not keeping your money. Okay. >> I can show you everything that I'm not lying about. My kids going to school tomorrow. >> Okay. >> And I can show you my daughter um birthday >> that tomorrow is really her birthday. >> Okay. So that doesn't change anything.

Don't stress [snorts] about it. Oh, you're going to >> So, what stores did you steal from? >> Victoria Secret. >> Yeah. So, when you went in pink, you took stuff from there as well. >> Just those two stores. >> Okay. >> All right. >> All right. DJ said he's on his way. So, you want to wait for >> Well, I think he's more worried about merchandise. >> Uh, there's Victoria Secret, too. >> The suspect attempted to steal nearly $1200 worth of lingerie from Victoria's Secret along with another $800 worth of merchandise from a different retail store. She was charged with shoplifting, but despite the high total, was released later that same day. Shoplifterss come from all walks of life. But unless someone is truly stealing food out of desperation to feed their starving children, it's difficult to feel sympathy. Why should they be entitled to free merchandise when everyone else has to work hard and pay for it? But this is still not the worst case. Just wait until you see this next one. >> What? It's going to be suspicious. We black people. >> Why would she leave you mom? I mean, she went through a field and was going over 100 mph through red light. I would never left my kid like that. >> On January 22nd, 2025 in Washington, Illinois police responded to reports of multiple women shoplifting at Walmart.

She nervously denies involvement, claiming she was left behind and only came to use the phone. >> Never had anyone go through the field and ditch me like that before. Let's go see what we got going on here. Where's the girl at? Okay. >> You're about to go. Shut. Shh. What? You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can will be used against you in court of law. >> Okay. >> You have the right. You move again. I'm going to put you on the ground. Do you understand your right? >> Yes. >> Okay. >> Can I Can I >> Hold on. So So So why am I here today? >> Um I don't have nothing to do to do with that.
