    It sounds to me like she was in danger of sexual assault because why is he trying to search her? Why is he trying to take her somewhere? She asked repeatedly but him to call the police and he refused to do so.

      I was thinking along the same lines...
      Cause of how he was bouncing quickly from straight forward to center field then threatens a tackle right to verbal rhetoric trying sending her to the exit only Gate...
      I wondered if he was corralling her off out of sight to his own place where he controls the situation.
      But she's has got it going and he cannot succeed.

    I watched the whole thing on TikTok. First he said that “the manager” saw her through cameras that she was stealing. 2) he threatens her by saying his gonna call the police when he should’ve just done it 3) he later says “now they’re telling me to just let you go. You’re trespassing” 4) she called the police herself 5) she or her lawyer called the manager on a later day and the manager had “no clue” that even happened.

    In order for a SECURITY GUARD ... IE a private citizen to detain someone they need to have WITNESSED the crime... NOT SUSPECT the crime. He can NOT detain anyone because he SUSPECTS they may have done something, he has to KNOW they have done something. His actions border on harassment. She is NOT obligated to stop and show her receipt at ANY retail establishment that doesn't have membership rules, for example Costco. Know your rights... when you are leaving a store you DO NOT have to produce a receipt if you do not wish to do so nor empty your pockets. You can oblige the Loss Prevention staff, but you do NOT need to do so.
    Sure, Seattle is becoming a cesspool. I live in a neighboring city and frequent Seattle, it's sad what is has become. However INNOCENT people who are going about their day shouldn't be harassed by wanna be LEOs or are essentially cosplaying in a backwards NBA cap, wearing the American flag while asserting he's going to violate someone's constitutional rights.

    This guy had 2 body cameras and not one camera was recording that is very fishy. Another interesting fact is that if he really thought that she had stole, he wouldn’t suddenly change his tone when she demanded that he called the cops he started to demand that she leave the store before the cops came because he knew he was full of it.

    Some observations:
    1. He has two body cameras. Why? Speculating a bit, Is one for personal use? The axon branded one is pretty expensive and would likely be provided by his employer, but I don’t see any indication that it is recording. The one with a green light looks to be an Amazon one that anyone can buy. You can find an identical one if you search on Amazon for “body camera”. Why is he recording only on his personal body camera? Why have a personal recording at all? What is he doing with the recordings? He stated that his body camera footage was not working. How did he manage to have two body cameras and neither one was recording? I don’t buy it.
    2. He had handcuffs in his hand. Was she a threat to his safety? She was generally compliant and is a third of his size.
    3. No need for a flashlight indoors.
    4. He has two standard capacity magazines. Aren’t they (unconstitutionally) illegal in wa? Does he have a third in his firearm?
    5. His earpiece doesn’t seem to be connected to his radio.
    6. His radio setup is really odd. He is using a samcom uhf radio, and Walgreens does not use uhf frequencies - (they use a WiFi system). His radio is made to be a ham radio - so who is he talking to? It doesn’t seem like it is even turned on. It does come up towards the top if you search “walkie talkie” on Amazon though. And it comes with an earpiece that looks an awful lot like the one he’s wearing. To me, it feels like he wants to make it look like he’s getting guidance from someone else, when he really isn’t. Why would someone do that?

Technically he had not detained or restrained her in anyway., though he was following her and menacing her verbally by saying what he was going to do. She should have walked out of the store. If he put hands on her... or blocked her from leaving that is definitely when she should call police and lawyer. Stores suspect Black people of shoplifting all of the time, hence the term shopping while Black. Unfortunately, that is not illegal, though it is distasteful, disrespectful and unfair.

    When it comes to the tactical gear I don't think it was over excessive, especially in 2024. Every where you go nowadays stores are being robbed, people are stealing right in front of your face, or fights break out, the other shoppers need to feel some what safe and I think seeing someone wearing all that gear brings some sort of comfort while shopping, Imo.
    But this wannabe cop crossed the line on all sorts of levels and I hope she gets a good settlement out of this and Walgreen learns from it.
    There's more to this story as well, when he approached her he told her she was caught on camera stealing and when the cops arrived and she mentioned it to check the footage the guy said there was no footage of the incident, also his so called body camera wasn't even on and he's wearing two of them. Which makes me believe that's just for show and now everyone knows it.

    If these people just let the natural order of things happens, they won't be suspicious. A reasonable person will comply and show gratitude then head out of the place. This store and so many others has routines and protocols to prevent theft now, all thanks to your protests in the past against law and order, classic law of the few!

      There is more, she called the cops, the cops contacted Walgreens and the manager he claimed "Told him to detain her" didn't even know that was going on, they contacted his job AWS Security (a contracting company) and even THEY didn't know what he was doing!

    Wanabee cop security guard overstepped in this incident. . But BS to the security consultant that said he was over doing it. Here in the Bay Area non aggressive security guards have been assaulted, stabbed, and killed by firearm. I think intimidation factor with firearm is necessary in all retail establishments. Our government has entitled these deviant criminals to do what ever they want with impunity.
