The video quality that they have is phenomenal you could see every feature of the suspect. You could see him putting the objects in his pants and you could even see the car he was driving, but you could not see the license plate because of the way he backed up. After we finished up at the store we went to talk to a victim who claimed he was beaten and robbed. The victim said someone broke into his house and hit him with a bat, took him to various bank locations to try to get money out of his account and then they brought him back and put him into his bathtub. He claims that the suspect beat him at another location because there was no blood or anything in his house or the bathtub. After talking to the victim we went back to the police department and Detective Turner called the victim sister and she was very nice. The victim sister told Detective Turner that his brother told her of a girl that could have done it, but once the girl called the victim his story changed instantly, so this case is getting quite interesting.
