So, do you know why you're here today? >> Nope. >> Any idea? >> Nope. >> Okay. So they they they they told me from the last you worked there for 10 years. You said about 10 years. >> Um that you were, you know, stealing money from them. >> Okay. >> And they had documentation of everything showing that. So that's why I'm here trying to get your side of the story because >> documentation. Interesting. >> Can't imagine. I I it's it's false. I'm being falsely accused because I didn't steal any money. >> Okay. So if you did all the payment, right? So >> Mhm. >> They told me they have an IRA there, right? And they contribute to their like if you contribute to your IRA, they would match up to a certain percentage, correct? >> Yeah. >> Okay. Do you remember roughly how much that certain percentage was? >> Um I believe is usually around two maybe 3%. >> Okay. >> Something like that. >> So how much roughly did you get? >> I still had that account open. >> Okay. So, how much? So, if you put in just say you put in $10, how much would they match up that $10? >> They matched up to I don't remember what they matched to up 3% maybe. >> Okay. >> I don't really recall exactly >> if you can remember. I It's a It is a personal question, but how much were you making every two weeks there just to give a guesstimate? >> Um, say two grand. >> Okay. So, say you two grand. So, how much would you put in every paycheck to your that IRA and then how much would they they match it roughly? >> I think I was doing 2% and they were matching 2% I think. >> Okay. So, around 40 bucks roughly you give or take? >> Yeah. >> Okay. So, on the >> Well, actually probably 50 bucks >> now that we talk about it >> because I would fluctuate it. I would say Okay. >> Yeah. You can change it whenever you want to. >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So what they showed me is that >> sometimes that 50 bucks will turn into 400 bucks. >> 400. >> 400. >> I couldn't afford 400 to be changed. >> You weren't putting into it. >> Oh, they were >> you were able to change it cuz you were the bookkeeper >> to change it to the to that dollar amount to what they matched you for. And to to save 400 bucks, you would had to make about like Sure. >> 12 grand every two weeks, right? >> Sure. >> So that's why >> Sure. >> That's what they were showing me, right? >> Really? >> Yeah. >> Cuz everything's documented on a computer. >> Okay. >> So, and you weren't doing that? >> No. >> So, how how' this pop up on their end then? >> I don't know. >> Cuz they wouldn't they wouldn't call the police for, you know, if they didn't have anything. I understand that. But I would never try to scam the company. For my 11 years, I was nothing but loyal. >> Yeah. >> You know, and I did the 401k just like I did everybody else's. >> Mhm. >> I didn't change mine in any way. So, they're saying that I would put in 2% and the company put in 400. >> Sometimes. Yeah. >> Sometimes. >> Sometimes. Not all the time. >> And they have documentation. Yeah. >> Interesting. >> So, did you have access to like all their bank accounts and everything like that? >> I did for a while and then the daughter-in-law started working there. >> Okay. Um, was it like a certain username or like how did you log in? Was it like how could they tell who logged into the account is what I'm asking. >> Everybody had different usernames. >> Okay. Was it like your work email or something like that? >> I don't remember. It was 2 and a half years ago since I >> Yeah. No, I know. I'm just asking. Um >> so that's documented right as well when you log in anytime you log into just say your email address it's documented >> so they have that as well every time you logged into the business account time date and everything like that right >> so they can see what you were doing in >> you know and what's funny >> is that they mentioned that to me the day that we separated >> and he's like why do you have access to this bank account >> well if I don't have access to it How can I log how can I get permission to log into it? >> Yeah. >> If I don't have access to that account. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> If I don't have access to that account, how can I change it for me to be shown on it? That's okay. >> The the the thing is it was just like all the money that was being changed was only being to you. It would have been different if if it was going to everybody >> and there's only there's not just one person doing the books and it's only going to you. Right. >> Right. >> So that's why it's showing that everything's logged into unto you under you as well. Um cuz they also >> So I my login what do you mean by I'm in >> and they you know they can show like they showed me when you logged into the QuickBooks account and able to change stuff. Oh, QuickBooks or the bank account >> which is attached to the bank account. Correct. >> Right. Right. >> So they can I I saw all those login as well for over the past 10 years that you worked there. >> Right. Logins for QuickBooks. Yeah. >> And then you can see the adjustments that occurred and everything like that. >> Adjustments. What adjustments? >> Like you getting the extra pay to your IRA IRA into your account. >> So this is all over an IRA situation. >> No, >> there's more. Yeah. >> Trust me. I was there for about an hour and a half talking with them this morning. Getting everything I possibly could. >> Uhhuh. >> So, if I didn't feel like I had enough, you wouldn't be here today. >> Mhm. IRA. >> And what else? >> So, >> oh, bank, blogging. >> Yeah. Um, did you ever have a cell phone through the business? >> Yeah. >> They paid for the cell phone. >> Mhm. >> Okay. Well, they're telling me you did it. That what? >> That you didn't know. >> I didn't What? >> Hey, she's she's want to talk. >> So he This is This is my partner. He's just going to talk you about the the stuff that we're talking about at the beginning. Okay. >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> Just >> So what about the cell phone? >> Well, we'll get back to that. Let him do this so he can get going. >> So I'm going to tell you right now, me and be honest with you. I know he's got other stuff he's got going on on the his side. >> Okay. >> I only got called to help him sort through the copious amounts of pills you have. Understand something. Right now I have enough to charge you with trafficking. Okay? Because you cannot present me a prescription right now. The way you had it co-mingled with the other drugs is in my training experience, a way that a lot of people who are using drugs or trafficking drugs will try to conceal their narcotics. Okay. I just got off the phone with an attorney from the drug trafficking unit who told me that a future prescription does not absolve you of the fact that you're sitting on with no prescription present. It's not in the proper bottle and there's nothing in your property right now that has anything that says you have prescribed that. So unless you had something that said, and even still, we're kind of on the fence because had you have got it filled in January, February, whatever, prior to this incident, >> Uhhuh. >> it needs to be in that bottle so I can verify, hey, you got this many pills that day. >> This is the doctor who gave it to you >> because you're sitting on probably almost 20, 30 pills >> between broken ones and that. >> And to be honest, that's just so I have them for when I go to work or whatever. But I can even call I we can call my doctor's office. >> So, here's the deal, okay? We don't have the time to sit around and and try to make things work for you. All right? >> At the end of the day, looking at here, you got that last filled in 2023. >> That's the wrong prescription. >> Based on what I'm seeing, there's nothing that can prove that. So, you're already going to take a ride based on what he's got. This is going to be secondary to that. >> Can we call the doctor's office? >> No, we can't do that. >> That's something you're going to have to that you're going to have to do when you go to court. But as of right now, based on what I'm seeing, what I'm not being proven with at the end of the day, yes, I'd like to take your word for it that you can't one, you can't have all your prescriptions coming like that. >> It was like four different pills in one >> because technically all of that alone and he he's probably going to have to charge you with it based on the circumstances of the case. having those drugs not in a proper bottle. Prescription legend that you only have two things that are prescription legend to you. >> Okay? Even though they're not controlled substances, you still cannot be in possession of that without a prescription. >> It's still an offense. >> You can't just It's It's like the hodge podge bull at a freaking, you know, college party where everybody throws pills in a thing. When you're carrying it, it's like medical cannabis, right? If I have medical cannabis on me, it still has to be a prescription bottle with my name, when it was filled, quantity, and everything because at the end of the day, you're supposed to be dosages one pill per day. If I get filled on January 1st and it's supposed to expire February 31st, I shouldn't still be >> Oh. Oh, right there. Right there. >> Yeah. It says delayed. >> Yep. Cuz I'm trying to get it get it filled. >> You can't get it filled. You're not understanding what I'm saying. >> The last fil. >> You're sitt Oh, the last filled. >> You're sitting on almost 40 pills. >> Yeah. >> You haven't got it refilled and you The last time it shows filled was December. So, somewhere in between December of 2023 and March, whatever, or April, because it's delayed, >> you somehow or another got in possession of 16 >> because I've been filming them every month. >> You haven't? >> Yes, I have. I have. I promise. >> I'm looking at your history. So, that's going to be on you to prove in court. So, now the way to help yourself is whoever you're filling it with, which is the bigger problem. Either a doctor's giving you a bogus filling of your prescription or you're getting it from somebody on the street. >> Oh, no. >> That's the way to help yourself. So, before I walk out this door, that's your option. You going to be honest with me and tell me where you're getting your drugs. So, again, you're being charged. You're not being proven guilty. That's going to be on you and the onus in the court to figure out when you got it filled, how you got it filled, and all that stuff. You can bring that with your attorney to court when you're dealing with your other stuff and you can handle that side of the investigation. Okay? But as of right now, based on the circumstances and facts I have in front of me, he he's going to end up charging you to death. >> Okay? >> Step outside. So give me >> Can I go to the bathroom again? I'm sorry. So good. >> And of course, hearing all this information makes me want to go even more. >> I know. I get it. Um, put you can put your hands in the front again for me. >> All right. Just face that way for me, please. No, he's actually there. >> Okay, hold on. She was charged with grand theft involving $20,000 or more, but less than $100,000, fraud, and trafficking oxycodone.
