He Handed Her Scrubs and a Fake Check — Then Left Her Alone with Police | FL Bodycam

On June 18th, 2024, a 24-year-old mother of two was arrested at a TD Bank in DeLand, Florida, after attempting to cash a fraudulent check. She arrived in medical scrubs. Her only job was waitressing. A man she had known for two months recruited her, handed her a handwritten check, dressed her in a costume, gave her a cover story — and drove away the moment police arrived. This video analyzes the bodycam footage of her encounter with the arresting officer, the legal standards that governed her detention, the charge of uttering a forged instrument under Florida Statute § 831.02, and the legal doctrine of willful blindness — and what her cooperation ultimately meant for her outcome.
