#TopStoryWithTomLlamas #Shoplifting #NewYork
And the DA lets amount with no bond and later dropped charges, You know that’s what’s really going to happen
Maybe these people wouldn’t have to shoplift if they could make a livable wage and corporations didn’t gouge us. In reality they are the victims.
Get trump too he robbed the whole country with tax fraud. These people just robbed a few stores. trump robbed all of us.
Police can’t store it all forever so it will be sold off legally in pallets to people who will then sell it on eBay, Facebook and other online venues.
Letitia James is going to be the next governor of New York if y’all don’t stop her from locking everybody up
2 Russians running it
They rather rob, then to get a job, now we know why businesses can’t find anyone to work, these young adults won’t be able to get a job, cause all these illegals coming in are going to fill every opportunity in jobs.
They forgot the rest of the story, they all signed themselves out of jail hours later and promised they’d show up to court and stop doing illegal stuff🙉🙊🙈
Ok
Crazy how 3.8 millions doesn’t seem like alot anymore, desensitization especially compared to 7 trillion
I wonder how much the bankers of the world have gotten. Going to be a heck of a story one day. No judgment or condemnation of course. Agape to them all !
*BREAKING NEWS*
NY prosecution drops all charges.
(Wait, that’s Cali…)
Given the collapse of the American judicial system, he and Trump will walk away.
They always said Trump going to jail before the elections, nearly 2 years later he still trolling.
They really laid out that Cera Ve like it’s expensive 🥹🥹🥹
Finally I realize I want a business me too ! Thanks for the info 👍 😀
No excuse because of COVID-19, locked them at least 5 years and higher
Russian tribal members….
By the state of all the
” happenings” all across the U.S. it’ll be some time before the crooks start to fear any time being handed out for it to become a “Deterrant”! Not to mention the revolving door, low bail in place!
Oooops looks like they are Busted…
Weapon Terrorist Satelite Mind control V2K you Can Select Character Buddha,God,General And No Gun No Boom But Yes Ultimate Area, Yes Dead 100% Yes goto target 100% Yes Victms Ultimate (Exist True)
So freaking dumb
1:06 – Flippant comment… But no one makes 100% profit. They, as criminals, devoted time and energy from other tasks, to accomplish the thefts. The warehouse rental for sure wasn’t free. So, their actual margins weren’t 100% as a business. Hyperbole matters when you’re talking about a 1/1000 ratio of theft to gross.
They going down
The fact it was this big and involved this much money should tell us all something. Our system of crime and punishment doesn’t really work. The consequences aren’t severe enough.
Someone stole a bass guitar?? Make them pay!!!
They’ll be out of jail tomorrow on good behavior
I love Russia
I hate this.
Wish they would go after corporate thieves with the same passion.
Just more of that wonderful ghetto equity
This is America. 🤭😸😎
That’s good. The next step is prosecuting them to the fullest extent of the law. Thanks to Andrew Cuomo and bail reform, prosecuting criminals is not something new York does anymore
Ton of crap.Why put yourself in this situation 🤷🏼♂️Just not a good idea for a get rich quick scheme.You are poor and have no money or food I can see taking something from the supermarket to eat but not to sell.To go to prison for this is crazy I guess greed takes over.
Man really had to diss EBay at the end of the video
WHITE REPUBLICANS DOESNT CARE ABOUT BROWN KIDS. VOTE ABBOTT AZZ OUT OF OFFICE!!!
Dude said “Wow EBay of all places!” If this isn’t a sign to them they really rebrand EBay, I’m not sure what is!
Great job for taking down these thieves but let’s get more cops on the streets for our safety what’s wrong with these people officers we need helpToo much crime in broad daylight!!!!
3.8 million with 41 ppl? Thats peanuts per person.
They need to make grab and go a mandatory 7 year sentence. 1 or 2 years nobody cares
Leticia isn’t playing with these criminals.
Can you please show the suspects bigger pictures!!!???? So they can be ID better to the public!!!!??? 😊
The major guy won’t get any jail time he has money to pay for lawyers , the lower level criminals will do all the jail time while the main guy gets probation & starts another scam somewhere else , happens everyday , every state , nothing never changes because laws are set up for the rich to win
“On eBay of all places” 😂
They just don’t want to look for jobs anymore, So they can get their own money period
How about arresting politicians who look the other way regarding the safety of our elementary school children?
They won’t arrest themselves
Leticia James is for true justice and she follows the law regardless of who they are going after especially the organized criminals and people in powerful positions.
So why hasn’t she put T down …she cannot seem to touch him
People who don’t want to work to earn so that they may provide for themselves and or families…it’s absolutely sad and as a American I’m embarrassed…with all the mess going on in the world? Wow
Makes you wonder if this is just another TRUMPed up charge by the New York AG.
Those thugs from Israel .Deport them to Israel .
Politicians are doing way worse!
What
You mean she will charge them it’s hers and others fault it was possible
Ow I see they are the wrong color they will be charged
Lock 🔒 em up
They all took off work to do this.
This is how blm justify looting
Show me how dumb you can be with out telling me 💀
Good start!! Still waiting on NY AG to move on rRump.
Would of been 42 but I got fired the day before for…get this…stealing….
That’s bad
Great job officers 👍🇺🇸
Rico case
I am sure eBay knew and didn’t wanna say anything.
All the crooks names end with the letter V WTF.
Despicable lowlifes 😡
They’ll probably just get 6 months probation anyway
Wow petty crime probably mostly junkies we got bigger fish to fry
Am I the only one that noticed that they were all white people?
Nice kids with a job whats the benefits? Free room and board 3 meals and recess in prison
People that buy off “the black market “, aren’t any better then the thieves. If and when I need to buy something, I’ll and go to the stores to buy. I would never buy from criminal enterprise like this. U can’t use the excuse u didn’t know it was stolen. KARMA gets u all the time. Their is a God, and he likes law and order…
Peep how their all white😂
We need teams for catching shoplifters in my city
Good to see. The news typically showcase black faces behind shoplifting. I have always contended that stealing is organized big business..
Ok but won’t they just be released due to no bail?
They will get out within the hour due to Democratic leadership
🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓 WHAT YOU GOING TO DO WHEN THEY COME FOR YOU 🤓🤓🤓🇺🇸🇺🇸🍎👠👞
About time.
Nyc politicians are so fake and useless all they do is make bs arrest and love the camera Adam’s and James
Yep that’s cool but let the judicial system put a Rico the klan kkk. That’s what the world needs mostly….
No, that’s the new ‘green economy’s you’re allowed to do that and they’re all heroes
WOW! good job!
Build more jail and lock them up for long time. If D.A or Judge want to release them early? Don’t waste your time…
If you have ever seen Goodfellas you know
It’s called Schwag.
It took them THREE YEARS Haha
So since they caught them prices should go down right?
Ayayai Bukhara – Bukhara ))))
@0:43 They leaked the new GTA 6 main characters, right?
Go after oil companies & politicians too!
I wish Russia would hit the factory reset button already
Y’all do the 🐕
It’s that bad in Washington too…Inslee..started it all…get rid of him.now…any way..with law enforment..
Get a real job
This all happened, because…. You didn’t hire Tom Taber. You all know, he’s the best.
She needs to be work on her T case
