July 20, 2019. Police officers were dispatched in response to a robbery report in a store at Citizens Drive. There, cashier Destine Potts told them that a masked Hispanic man with a black painted face, armed with a handgun stole $2,400 from the register while yelling “vamonos!”and then he ran off. According to police, Destine narrated the story looking “frantic”.
However, as a part of their investigation, Police reviewed store surveillance footage and noticed Destine Potts putting on a suspicious behavior before and during the robbery. Weeks into the investigation, detectives interviewed the fictim once again and this time she confessed that she organized the robbery with three others, and was paid $200 for her role. Destine also confessed that the code used to initiate the robbery was “I love you” text message sent to the masked man.
