[00:18:07]Okay. It's not a keychain. It's a haircut.

[00:18:12]>> Huh?

[00:18:12]>> I got the whole Gucci. The whole thing.

[00:18:14]I have it. They brought it to me on >> Can you tell them >> that's the tracking number?

[00:18:18]>> Yeah, that's the tracking number.

[00:18:19]>> And I don't have it. Seriously. And then and then a little while later she shows up. 000 0123.

[00:18:25]>> It's an AirPod holder. I don't know why you keep saying it's a keychain. It's not a keychain. It's >> the OP guy. I just numbered his name.

[00:18:33]That's the the mention. Oh, is he over there now?

[00:18:35]>> Yeah. Josh's there now.

[00:18:37]>> The police left the scene and went straight to the CCTV room. And from that point on, nothing was in the woman's control anymore.

[00:18:44]>> Did you submit the video yet?

[00:18:45]>> Yes, I've submitted the video.

[00:18:46]>> Oh, gotcha. So, she's going to come up.

[00:18:48]She's arguing if it's a keychain or air.

[00:18:50]>> No, it's a keychain.

[00:18:51]>> Air holder.

[00:18:58]>> Slides underneath her wallet and just keeps it and go forward. She never brings it back out. She never put it back. I know forever the counter. Walks over. Gets them distracted. Get them all flustered. I walk forward. She keeps going around 3:08. Let me show you that.

[00:19:14]She watches out. She's going to go down the fragrance and then puts it back.

[00:19:18]Still has the holder and then she walks.

[00:19:21]I can just walk her out of 308.

[00:19:23]>> At no point she pay for the item.

[00:19:25]>> Nope. And then just walks out. Her husband's outside. I think her husband.

[00:19:30]>> Can I see the beginning of the video where she just see her face again cuz I was supposed to she was taken. And that's the same lady you recognize that came back today.

[00:19:36]>> The same probably.

[00:19:38]>> Oh, she said she's come back today.

[00:19:39]>> No. Okay. Um, you guys want charges?

[00:19:41]>> Yeah.

[00:19:42]>> Okay. I'm going to need I know you probably need to take it online. So, I can't grab that because it's already been submitted. I'll grab another statement for you. You don't mind filling that out?

[00:19:49]>> Sure. No problem. Um, and then we'll go through that. Let's see what she has.

[00:19:53]You guys did inventory of everything and you know, not me. You're arrest. Just need your detain.

[00:19:57]>> Sure.

[00:19:58]>> And then I want to ask a question.

[00:19:59]>> What's detained? This has never happened to me before.

[00:20:01]>> You're detained cuz you're not free to leave.

[00:20:03]>> Wait, what was it?

[00:20:04]>> You're not free to leave right now. We just do the investigation.

[00:20:06]>> So, I can leave.

[00:20:07]>> You're not? No.

[00:20:08]>> You're not. You're detained.

[00:20:09]>> What does detain mean?

[00:20:10]>> Like you're being held. Can't go anywhere right now.

[00:20:13]>> Yeah.

[00:20:13]>> Oh. Oh. Not arrested but detained.

[00:20:15]Meaning that you have to wait.

[00:20:17]>> We have to investigate.

[00:20:18]>> Exactly. We have to investigate the facts before we can make determination.

[00:20:21]That's what we're doing right now.

[00:20:23]>> All right. If you have the right explain, do anything.

[00:20:25]>> Yes.

[00:20:25]>> When the verbal narrative cracked under the video, the only question left was who was telling the true story.

[00:20:32]>> You were checking out with the bottles of cologne where you put the keychain back at.

[00:20:35]>> Yeah, that's where I looked at wherever that was. So maybe that's what I was trying to tell. Maybe can they search the whole story? It might have fell somewhere before they deal with your story. All right. It's not true. I removed the video. You're seeing putting it under your wall. They have a camera right above.

[00:20:48]>> Yeah, I know. I see the camera.

[00:20:49]>> You know Gucci? Obviously, I can see everybody with >> Everybody has camera. Okay. Camera.

[00:20:56]>> Okay. So, you take it's 330 bucks. All we're asking All we're asking is cooperation and admission. All right.

[00:21:02]I'm not asking you to sit here and continue makeup stores.

[00:21:05]>> You put the keychain holder under your wallet. You walk around the store and you exit. You never once drop it in.

[00:21:10]Okay. Everything in that store is >> I have never taken anything.

[00:21:13]>> Is it possible that you >> you were at home? Did you forget and that's why you came back there?

[00:21:17]>> Nobody's accusing you of DMT.

[00:21:19]>> I'm not obviously tell I can afford all this.

[00:21:23]>> I understand. Is it an accident? Is this a misunderstanding?

[00:21:25]>> Maybe. I don't know. It's really crazy cuz this never happened to me before. I was in a hurry because I sang at the Teletron in um >> Where is it at? Do you have the home?

[00:21:34]Can you go back and get it?

[00:21:35]>> Get what?

[00:21:35]>> The the airplane.

[00:21:37]>> I don't have it. Maybe it fell somewhere. I don't have it. Seriously.

[00:21:40]>> But if you wanted to pay, I I don't want to pay. I don't have it. I swear to you, I don't have it. If they want me to pay, I will pay.

[00:21:46]>> Is it in your car?

[00:21:47]>> I don't have a car. I've been taking Uber.

[00:21:49]>> I don't live here. That's why.

[00:21:51]>> Where do you live?

[00:21:51]>> I live in California. I don't have it.

[00:21:53]Seriously.

[00:21:54]>> But you told me you put it back right in front of me.

[00:21:57]>> No, I don't remember. I I think I throw everything back once my husband was rushing me out because we were late for the show. The only reason we came in here because his outfit was malfunction.

[00:22:06]So, we went to Demon and bought a suit.

[00:22:09]But you do remember yesterday picking up the keychain, testing it out and then >> not a key chain.

[00:22:14]>> The whole >> I tested I tested it didn't fit. So I put it back into my my my my um LV thing and then I don't remember what happened to do you know what I mean? Because if it fit I wouldn't buy it. It didn't sit.

[00:22:28]I tried it. It didn't fit. You should look at camera carefully >> and they check your purse and you'll >> I tried it. He looked at you looked at the whole purse.

[00:22:35]>> Are you okay if I look at it?

[00:22:36]>> Oh no.

[00:22:38]So I I don't remember what happened, you know, to that thing. Maybe. Can't they search the store? They can't search the the store for it.

[00:22:45]>> Uh they did. They do counts like >> that's really Or did they check on the cologne side? Because I went back there to make sure.

[00:22:51]>> I checked the entire store.

[00:22:52]>> Okay. Cuz I went back there to make sure the cologne was incorrect. He gave me the wrong one.

[00:22:57]>> And the moment every misunderstanding disappeared, the handcuffs came out with only one destination. Orange County Jail. Right back at this time you are being placed under arrest.

[00:23:07]>> What is that?

[00:23:08]>> Uh for retail patty, >> but I didn't take it.

[00:23:12]>> The video shows otherwise. They did an inventory of the store.

[00:23:15]>> I didn't take it. So what again? I can't go home.

[00:23:18]>> Unfortunately, ma'am, because you're not a resident of Orange County or OciOla, I'm not able to do what we typically do, which is a bar or Huh.

[00:23:26]>> So what do I >> uh You're going to go to Orange County Jail and you're going to be you're going to bond out from there.

[00:23:30]>> So somebody has to come and bond.

[00:23:32]>> Yeah. Somebody have to come out and bond you. Your bond will be $1,000.

[00:23:35]>> Okay. They can do it right away.

[00:23:36]>> Uh I don't know as far as like on their end how long it takes, but you will be able to find out as soon as you get there. It's just a matter of how long.

[00:23:44]>> Can I tell them?

[00:23:45]>> I'll let them know.

[00:23:46]>> They're my only.

[00:23:47]>> Give me a second. Can you get Somebody's going to go do a statement at Gucci.

[00:23:50]>> Do you want all your property?

[00:23:52]>> Do you want all your property to go to?

[00:23:54]>> You want me to say your family over there? Your >> friends, but can I talk to basically?

[00:23:58]>> I'm standing here.

[00:24:01]>> Just put my head out.

[00:24:03]Do you want them to know that you're being arrested?

[00:24:05]>> No, I don't because this is crazy. Can you stand here and talk to them? Go to this door.

[00:24:10]>> We're going to get them to your property. How what are they supposed to know about?

[00:24:12]>> Otherwise, where is it going to be?

[00:24:14]Here.

[00:24:14]>> You'll have to go to the jail. But I mean, I don't know. Where's your vehicle at?

[00:24:18]>> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You'll get it back. My >> So, I can take it with me.

[00:24:21]>> My only concern is because one, the price dollar of your bag and two, if they don't allow that in the jail because sometimes they're very that nobody's taking care of it.

[00:24:31]>> Yeah. I'd rather give it to somebody you know. That way there's for >> Okay, I can give it to Jo to I'll explain to him.

[00:24:35]>> I'll bring her back here.

[00:24:36]>> Yeah. No, I can talk to her.

[00:24:37]>> No, no, no.

[00:24:39]>> No, no. I'm not going out there. Just bring the door.

[00:24:41]>> We'll bring her back here.

[00:24:42]>> I need to tell them this is a big misunderstanding.

[00:24:45]>> She was arrested for petty theft, handcuffed, and transported to Orange County Jail. Her bond was set at $1,000.

[00:24:53]Next, a woman walked out of Target and was immediately handcuffed. But the reason behind it lay in a series of transactions no one could easily explain. Stop.

[00:25:02]>> Jesus. Hi.

[00:25:03]>> Hello.

[00:25:03]>> Hi. You're under arrest. Put under arrest.

[00:25:06]>> Are you stealing?

[00:25:06]>> Put your hands behind your back.

[00:25:08]>> Put your hands behind your back.

[00:25:10]>> You're under arrest for like five counts of fing.

[00:25:12]>> Excuse me.

[00:25:13]>> For like five counts of felony retail.

[00:25:15]>> How?

[00:25:15]>> Merry Christmas.

[00:25:16]>> You'll find out.

[00:25:17]>> I'm really serious.

[00:25:19]>> We will fill you up with details. Let's go to the office.

[00:25:22]>> We literally watched you on camera. So >> I I for what exactly?

[00:25:29]>> Did you have anything on you?

[00:25:30]No, >> nothing on you. Okay. No pockets or anything?

[00:25:33]>> No.

[00:25:33]>> Okay, perfect. Go and have a seat for me.

[00:25:35]>> You've been caught on camera since like September of this month doing the $500 or $300 skiping stuff all the time. It's all on video. It's all documented. Well, Hold on. We will ask you the questions and do all that stuff after the fact.

[00:25:48]But at this point, there is like five cases of retail cash found.

[00:25:52]>> Okay. Is your ID in here?

[00:25:55]>> Um, my wallet's in there. My wallet's in there.

[00:26:01]So, we're going to go under the car where there's more cameras and more microphones. I'm going to read you your rights in the car so you know what your rights are and I'm going to ask you if you want to talk about this whole thing and and I'm going to tell you the details of every single case that I have on you, >> okay?

[00:26:13]>> And the the dates, the times, the totals, all that all that stuff. I'll even show you pictures and videos of you doing all this stuff.

[00:26:19]>> Doing what?

[00:26:20]>> It's called skip scanning. You scan one thing, put like three or more in a bag, and vice versa. So, it's all on video.

[00:26:26]So, >> we'll chat about it if if you want to >> I need my you to call my husband and I actually don't want to chat.

[00:26:34]>> That's your right as well.

[00:26:35]>> Sure. What you >> I'll still fill you in with all the details.

[00:26:39]>> You guys Okay.

[00:26:40]>> Okay.

[00:26:41]>> I would have zero reason to steal. You know that, right?

[00:26:45]>> I'm assuming who I am.

[00:26:48]>> Everyone has situations in their life. I don't know what your life entails.

[00:26:53]>> Point is I Okay.

[00:26:56]There were I don't know whether receipts from this morning.

[00:27:03]Yeah.

[00:27:03]>> Well, there should have been a purchase one and then a return one.

[00:27:06]>> This is a purchase form.

[00:27:08]>> When the cameras were mentioned, the denial no longer matched the items that had been recorded from the shelves to the checkout. There was an incident on October 23rd when there were multiple things of PSD underwear taken, a Champion t-shirt, like the Champion brand t-shirt, and a Cat and Jack toy.

[00:27:31]>> Does that ring any bells to you?

[00:27:35]>> What do you say, sir?

[00:27:36]>> Yeah, I have all of those things. Not paying for them or scanning them or whatever is being Okay. I mean, I have Yeah, there's no way for me to know what you're talking about or how.

[00:27:55]>> Okay. So, >> so the total that day was 386.

[00:28:00]Okay. And there was one more. I'll I'll go over it with you just so we can kind of attempt to get some kind of understanding of what we're having to do. So the 16th of this month, so two days ago, that was the biggest one, it was 582.

[00:28:16]>> Yeah. Which would have been on Tuesday of this week. It's Thursday right now.

[00:28:25]>> What?

[00:28:26]>> Yep. Let me There was facial cream like a Peter Thomas branded facial cream. There were some Lemi gummies vitamins. Are you able to see like what my credit card actually paid for?

[00:28:40]>> So, I cannot see that on the like the law enforcement side of things.

[00:28:44]>> The twist was the car which the police decided to impound under policy despite the owner insisting she didn't do anything >> when you showed up in the black BMW 2 days ago at around 9:30 in the morning. If that rings any bells at all.

[00:29:00]>> Yes.

[00:29:03]on that day. Like what you're saying?

[00:29:06]No.

[00:29:07]>> Did you make any selections of like like PJ clothing or anything like that? Like pajamas?

[00:29:13]>> Yes, I did.

[00:29:17]>> Um that's today's >> today's at 500 >> 500 >> today. Oh, just now. Just now. Okay.

[00:29:27]>> Um we'll touch on this on today's thing in a second. Um, being the fact that we now have enough probable cause to arrest you for multiple cases of retail theft, we're also going to be seizing your car.

[00:29:39]Okay? We are required to do that by department policy, county policy. So, my partner and my other partner are going to go to your car, make sure nothing else illegal is inside of your car, inventory the whole car, and it's going to get towed. Does that make sense?

[00:29:56]and >> so being that you're >> so when you go into my car and see that there's no inventory that they are accusing me of steal >> you still tow my car >> right so it's being seized or towed and seized because of your multiple retail theft cases it doesn't matter if the propertyy's there or not anymore the fact that you're the owner of the car and your car was used >> well actually >> is it Ryan >> pretty sure >> okay well nevertheless the car that you brought here is the one that's going to be getting used or seized. Um, if there is property in there that checks to one of these cases, it'll be then brought out and brought back into the store to be able to, you know, put them together.

[00:30:38]But at this point, that's what's going to happen with your car.

[00:30:40]>> In the end, the numbers and the video spoke for everything. And her next destination had nothing to do with the store anymore.

[00:30:46]>> You would have stuff in your left hand, scan something in your right hand, and then take everything together and put it in the bag.

[00:30:54]That literally happened. I watched it happen on the camera. We also watched you select the boxes of Lego toys, put them in the cart, and never actually scan them ever.

[00:31:05]So, that that definitely happened, too.

[00:31:06]But I watched it happen on camera.

[00:31:08]>> There were two transactions.

[00:31:11]>> Yeah. They watched you the entire time in the store from the time that you picked up the Legos. Just to talk about the Lego stuff, the time that you picked it up to the time you were met with us outside right here, the Legos went in the cart and never moved.

[00:31:24]They were always in the cart.

[00:31:26]>> Does that make sense?

[00:31:27]>> Yes. The one box that's doesn't fit back. I don't think either of the boxes, which is also why the flipper on the one receipt that I heard wasn't.

[00:31:41]>> So, I can go over all these items that were not scanned >> because today it's 587. It's it's the new new highest total today. It's a bunch of health products. There's Coca-Cola. There's whatever mint it is. I don't know what it is. Um the Legos are both on here.

[00:31:59]I mean, it's it's I we've all watched the videos. We we've seen what's been happening.

[00:32:04]>> Um I'm not trying to say you're a bad person or anything like that. I'm just trying to do my job, but from what I've seen, I have to make the arrest. I I haven't got a choice. Does that make sense?

[00:32:15]>> Yeah.

[00:32:15]>> Okay. So, there's going to be four counts of retail theft, I think. at least four counts of retail theft. Three out of the four are going to be felony level, which is over $300.

[00:32:28]One is going to be like 120 bucks. So that's misdemean.

[00:32:31]>> In Illinois, theft over $300 in a single incident or over time is punishable by 2 to 5 years in state prison and fines of up to $25,000.

[00:32:41]The woman was charged with multiple theft counts, including three felony counts over $300 and one misdemeanor count of $120.

[00:32:55]She went to the register and she feels like without standing.

[00:32:59]>> All right, man. Do me a favor. Stand up for me. Stand up. I need you to stand up here.

[00:33:06]Put Put it down. Come on. Stand up and turn turn around.

[00:33:10]>> Put your hands behind your back.

[00:33:13]>> They want They want to press >> what it is. Stay right here. Do not move.

[00:33:24]Can I get my medicine, please?

[00:33:28]>> I'm not pee first. I got to pee so bad.

[00:33:33]>> Ma'am, >> please sit in.

[00:33:36]>> Officers remained calm and assisted step by step, but they were preparing for what they knew was inevitable.

[00:33:42]>> I understand. You're just delaying the inevitable.

[00:34:38]>> Okay.

[00:34:38]>> All right. Nothing else in here. But she just got arrested for, too.

[00:34:42]>> No possession.

[00:34:44]Okay.

[00:34:46]That's just a smile.

[00:34:53]>> We're going to let you smoke cigarettes.

[00:34:54]I'm going to let you out. Need you to just listen to whatever we say, though.

[00:34:57]>> Okay.

[00:34:58]>> All right. Come on.

[00:35:01]>> I got you. Go ahead.

[00:35:05]>> I I took my shoes off. I had an ID.

[00:35:30]>> Here you go. Okay.

[00:35:32]>> But when given the chance, she chose an action that made her pay the price herself. And everything immediately got 10 times worse.

[00:35:39]>> You shouldn't have done it tonight. I was I'm sober. I've been 13 days over. I shouldn't have done it. I should have.

[00:35:46]>> That's fine. You're going to keep your shoes off for now. You're fine right now. You're good.

[00:35:49]>> Yeah. Yeah. I just want to crawl off.
