On June 26, 2021, a call was made to the Casselberry Florida Police Department by an employer who wanted to report her employee for theft. When officers arrived, they noticed the employer sitting on the ground. She stated that she had conducted a reverse sting operation, intentionally leaving money in the cash register to see if it would go missing. Later that day, she discovered the bills, unknowingly marked with the letter "J," as evidence of theft.
