Who the Hale$ do YOU think stole the guitar out of the Storage Unit AND do YOU think we got the real guitar that was originally in the locker? If you liked this theft video, you'll LOVE the illegal activity at this auction: ruclips.net/video/fVYSYMSM5Fg/видео.html
No, no way in Hales. Based on the amount of music stuff you guys found in the locker, there's no way this guy would have had a crappy little guitar like that. Personally, I'd be leery of buying anything from that place ever again- heck, I'd even tell the manager that she ought to at least have the cops come out and look because it's obviously theft. At the very least she owes you a refund because what you bought was not what you got, and two people should be looking for new jobs.
I think it was the office manager.. because a normal person would have inquired why you thought there was a guitar in there.. and then all of a sudden she says she finds one, and it's at her house!? Hmmm...
'I didn't even open it. Nope. I never even opened it.' How stupid can she be? Who would take a guitar case home and never even look inside to see what's in there? She's not only a thief, but a bad liar
Vicky Mcconnell She didn't? I'd be willing to bet she picked it up after work the day of or after the auction hoping to find that rare guitar worth big bucks and took it straight home before opening the case to see. I doubt she found it in the maintenance room as she claimed to have. I also love the the way she repeatedly stated "I haven't even looked in it". My aching arse. How long did she have it? Long enough to buy a $15-20 cheap guitar to replace what was in there before. She may not have hit the jackpot but I'd be willing to bet once again that she swapped guitars. I wish he'd show the guitar in up close because it doesn't look like a guitar that's been sitting in just about the cheapest case out there for over a year. Those cheap cases let dust right in. If I were him, I'd find out where she lives and check every store between her house and the storage facility. I'd make a third bet that he finds a store that sells that very same cheap red guitar. Shameful.
@@STLOWBOY I think she probably did not have time to go get a replacement guitar so it's the original -- but I could be wrong - with no picture you can never be certain
My friend bought a storage unit and put his own video surveillance camera in and went back with his full truck to get everything and watched the surveillance cameras and saw the manager going through his unit taking out expensive stuff out. She was arrested for scamming people out stuff they bought.
@@robertdadabo9076 they kept the same lock on it and the manager was supposed to hand over all the keys they had on it. She was doing this to a lot of units after they got sold and no one knew about it until my friend put up the video cameras
Manager is very guilty, she stole it and was shocked that you could tell from the picture that it was a guitar case. You caught her completely off guard and her body language was all over the place during the spur of the moment manufactured lying. You didn’t get the actual guitar back, the guitar case is worth more than the junky guitar.
Right! I know as soon as she looked at him about the guitar, it was like deer in the headlights. She took it and didn’t think they would notice. I do that as well for a lot of things. Take a screenshot. One of my family was texting me such nasty stuff. Well I screenshot everything thing she sent. Then I made a file under a## holes. So when she started on oh I never said that. 😆😆😆 boom I file shared to everyone in family. It felt good. 😆
wasnt she very shocked and flustered that someone had actually taken any notice let alone confronted her...if she was innocent (she isnt) she didnt seem very pissed that an employee could have done it
She probably helps herself to every single one of the units before they’re auctioned off. How much do you wanna bet she’s been skimming off each unit for years now?
When the unit was bid on the guitar was in there,so she stole it sometime after mr.whales purchased it. He bid on the unit because it was in there,and it was gone when he went to clean it out. She kept the one that was in there and replaced it with a different one,dusty guitar case dust will always find it's way in there.
@William Mills not true of when they fail to pay they are supposed to cut off the lock replace it with another and usually with a tamper evident tag if it's intended for auction they can't go threw it the only way they can go threw it is if they are going to sell the items individually but hey I can be wrong and I'm sure it varies state to state possibly county to county
Since that manager moved boxes and took the guitar she probably searched the entire unit then put everything back so every time a unit is won she gets the valuable stuff for free and puts the units back, she messed with the wrong people this time, that was smart of You all to memorize the pics. Smooth
I found that in the maintenance building I was looking for my wooden legs and I found a guitar yeah yeah yeah nothing but a story next thing she's going to say going the Earth is round😄wow🎸
Theres no reason what so ever for her to take the guitar to her house unles she stole it. She is guilty as sin. Her voice started shaking when she was busted. She needs to be fired.
Yep.she sure did. Notice how she made sure to turn her back to their camera and wiggle the zoom OFF of the area they were speaking about til he pointed it out.fornher to freeze it at.the spot
She blatantly obviously came up with a poor excuse for stealing it. Firstly it wasn't the person in the office or the person who took the picture because wouldn't they have removed it prior to a picture. She obviously stole it. I mean why would you see a guitar case and take it home without looking or asking? Very very odd indeed. 😂🙄
Manager "cares" too much about the guitar, now is driving an hour to "go get it" reminds me of all the freakish cult like workers at child services abducting children over lies and trumped up charges.
She took a guitar case home, unopened. Right. 3 times she said that. Why? It doesn't matter. It's gone. When she picked it up, she would have known, it more than likely, contained a guitar. Not smart enough to rip it off before the unit pic was taken for auction. I personally don't believe her, not looking in the case. Guitar cases are heavy. Ya, the heifer looked, liked what she saw, and took it home. Just saying. For shame!
We all know the look of shock on her face when you told her that the case was missing- she was shocked because she didn’t think you would catch that little bitty detail. BUT- Jeremy & George are the professionals & have an eye for this, great attention to detail!
*You can tell by looking at the wear marks on the inside top of the guitar case that a different, larger guitar was in the before, probably for years. That junk guitar is not tall enough for the strings/bridge/etc. to rest on the top of the case. SHE SWITCHED IT OUT!!!*
She's really smart what happens if the owner pays for thier unit and then they notice something missing I think I would have to press charges but wait they do have signs that say at your own risk 🤔
And also why didn't she say anything about the guitar she found when he was talking to her about the one in the storage unit? He described it pretty well. Not to mention the fact that she mentioned theft pretty early on.
It didn't make any sense to me that she took it home to "figure it out" If it's not yours you don't take it home - like you said you lock it in the office.
She is the manager, not the owner. I would 1. report to the owner. 2. make sure all the storage auction buyers are aware of the shady goings on at that place.
@@littlebuddysmom3944 there's no reason to believe that's true plus even if it is it's highly unethical. Once the unit is posted with pictures then that is what should be in there. People bid based on what they see in the pictures.
@@littlebuddysmom3944 It would have been the "owners" to tell her to do so if that is the case since she declared herself the manager... but any "good" owner would not do that because they would know that eventually word would get out and the "bidders pool" would drop substantially, thus consequently reduce the potential value of the abandoned units..The owners know the "bidders pool" is filled with people wanting to get a good deal and sell off the abandoned "goods" if the "pool" knows or suspects management theft they won't show up.. or their bidding would be affected by their suspicions
@William Mills ok even if thats true in that state if you watched the vid you'd know the pictures didn't match it was after the auction or at very least during the auction
As many times as Jeremy mentioned the guitar case the Manager never said anything about finding the guitar case. I think the manager is a thief. and I think she switched the guitar out on you.
@@rustygreen6771 I'm guessing it's one that he bought on-line. He did say that he lived 1.5 hrs away and I can't see someone driving that far for an auction and not taking anything back with them. If that's the case then he wouldn't have been able to put a lock on it.
I think she stole it herself and just got caught. Why would she take it to her house and even admits to have it there for about two weeks and goes further mentioning that she hasn't opened. Why would someone take a bag or a case or box home without knowing what's in it? A normal person wouldn't do that, I know I wouldn't. Two whole weeks without opening it. Could be something dangerous or explosive. She's lying, no doubt about it. Just put yourself in this situation, you find something that is NOT yours and you take it home, two weeks go by and you still haven't opened? I don't think so. She's a lying bitch and she knows it. Sometimes old people are more likely to commit crimes than younger people. Mostly because they think nobody will suspect of their old a$$. Good thing you shared this, other people dealing with her should be on the look out.
And probably switched it for that cheap junk guitar she probably stole from a different unit that locker could have had all kinds of nice things she could have stole her body movements and the way she was talking gave her away big time she’s lying 🤥
Always check the tag number on the unit to the one that is listed if it is a online auction it will have the number on your receipt check the tag before the manager removes it for tapering I am a manager of of a Storage facility. My DM and myself prep the units together never alone cut the lock take the pictures and upload the unit to the online Auction. This manager clearly took this item you never take anything home you put it in the office or store room for at least 30 days to see if anyone claims the item. and then add the item to a manager build up unit for abandon units or left behind items that are worth selling . The owner of this facility should be notified and know that he or she has a thief working for them.
T That guitar did not fit the case, manager took it then switched it. report her to the owners of the storage place, give them your video and the remarks here on what others think happened.
Her head was working overtime when you kept mentioning the guitar when you first went to the office! From the photo it was not exactly clear what is was that was missing but she knew exactly what it was. Also as someone mentioned earlier, she found the case in maintenance and took it home without checking inside to see what it was. First instinct is to look inside, unless you already know! Also you wouldn't take property home unless you planned on keeping it for yourself. Good catch!
Everything in that unit was moved, there was a box in the front in the OG photo that said 7B on it and it was gone or moved with the guitar as well. THey likely ditched the guitar in the maitenance room after opening it and realizing it was worthless junk. But Someone raided that unit quick for fast cash. Disgusting. It's always scummy employees too. They break into units and steal peoples things or use their power to get into units to do it. There should be cameras on every unit door and in every unit and the unit owners should have online access to the camera feed and recordings for their unit at all times in case of crooked employees. And people put mothballs in stored things to prevent rodents and bugs wrecking or getting into the stuff. The smell easily washes out.
I was thinking the same thing. I bet this person played christian music in church band. If so why would he have a junkie guitar? If anyone is gonna play in a band, church or rock... Most people don't want junk to play on. Cheap guitars arw fine to learn on for beginners and then upgrade to much better when you can play all the cords. Plus as small as that guitar looked it look to be a cheap beginners guitar she prolly found a pawn shop and kept the original. I hope they find out thw truth. Sad world we live in we people wanna be theives and lie about it. I hope anyone watching this video from that area needs to go check their unit and see if anything is missing. If Id take myself elsewhere to be stored right away and spread word. And call the BBB and report them.
@@Buzinfree777 it's possible he played yet at church! A lot of churches have had guitars for years! That's a brilliant idea! That would work in a court of law. I wouldn't be surprised if it was a vintage Gibson which is worth thousands
I've watched a lot of these videos and I agree. It's so clear to me that some items have been stolen, I'm surprised to see how many empty boxes are found, also, empty gun holsters.
Taking anything found home would be a fireable offense anywhere else. Heck if I found a dollar on the ground at my work and I pocketed it and took it home, I'd get fired even if I had "intentions" to bring it back in. That's not the guitar we were looking for.
I would never buy storage units from them again. Because you'll never find nothing valuable because as long as she's there!!!! DON'T BUY THERE INTIL SHE IS GONE.
She is so literally making crap she crap up as she is talking! I would call the cops and let them get to the bottom of the truth. And if I was the other workers, I would be not happy at all.
Manager did it. Very easy to discern based on her answers, approach, and reaction to this. I have interviewed 100's of criminals and she has the tell tale signs of lying.
Yep. This. If I admitted that it ended up in my house, I would feel compelled to run back the video, see who walked out of the storage room with it, and show that it wasn't me. Her reputation was on the line, and she didn't fully defend it. Telling.
Not only that, she claims to have found it in the maintenance room. Why would she take it from there in the first place? I think she's the one that took it right from the unit.
@@trreb1 She definitely took it out of the locker and probably has been cherry picking them for a while now. I also think she took the guitar out and replaced it with that junky one. The clues mount up against her. First thing I wanna touch on is why she "lives" a hour away? I wouldnt drive a hour to go to a storage unit job. And doesnt most managers live on site??? I think she took that time to switch out the guitars. When she starts breaking down to cry that's a huge red flag. Let's get attention off me and divert it to someone else. Her body language tells the whole story.
Would you take home a container that represents something, but really isn't, and never open it??.. IF we buy into the story that she didn't know what was in there should we assume she tried to steal a couple kilos of cocaine.. or weapons. Everyone knows the best place to hide a sub machine gun is in a guitar case
@@TheMacgill Easy enough to tell..... ask for the general area she lives in and see if it takes 20-25 minutes to get there..... if its only a few minutes then why would she have needed so much time??? hmmmmm
The manager took it for sure... You brought up the guitar 5 times and she knew she "found" one but decided to take it home.... Yeah, I don't believe that for a second
Wow, first time mentioning guitar, she hesitated big time, so.. What The Hale's was that for? Found it in Maintenance room, took it home, there's video cameras in that building, she could have watched video to see who took it, wait, she knows who did.. HERSELF Great video, love y'all taking us with y'all on this Hale's of a good time day trip.. Send me all Bible's that you want to.. I'll give them to teenagers who go to church, but don't have one..
You should get in contact with the previous unit owner and ask what kind of guitar was in there. I'd definitely escalate this to the owner of the unit / corporate.
I worked for a storage facility. You'd be surprised at some of the things I was able toick up, free. If someone emptied their storage unite anything left was free. I have a 10' dark walnut dining table, seats 8 with the original paperwork and pewter seal on the underside of the table. Chairs still have original covering. I contacted the company and was told it would be over $7,000 to replace. It is beautiful. Didn't have a scratch on it until my husband was bringing it in the house.
She said she’s gonna play detective. Lmao what the hales. She’s guilty. He said guitar like 40 times and then BOOM they pull up the pics. “Oh that guitar. Yeah I have it at my house ........hmmmm shady af. She’s guilty. Enough Said.
Sylvia Oertel the funny thing is he asked about the guitar like 40 times. Even showed her. And then once he said something. Now she has it. Hmmm. What the hales. She’s a crook
Did you see how nervous she got? It was like, "oh my god I've got caught!!! what am I going to do? She tells you she lives an hour away so she can try and get the guitar back to whoever she sold it or pawned it to! You should go back and put the fear of God in her! Demand the right guitar.
She makes no sense. If you "found" the guitar case in the maintenance room.......still doesnt give you the right to take it home. Sorry to say....pretty sure she just took it probably thinking it wasnt that noticible in the picture and it wouldnt be missed.
Aw man! The manager is guilty as hell! She couldn’t turn round from the computer because she couldn’t face you, LITERALLY. She could hardly reply to you speaking because she was in a state of fear as she was caught and she was trying very hard to think up a story. Plus, you mentioned a guitar missing several times and she did not crack a light. If you found a guitar at work and took it home you would connect the two instantly. That’s not her first rodeo that’s for sure her house is likely filled with pieces she takes from every locker. Shocking.
I love your guys this video you and George are hilarious and you find the greatest stuff and I love the trunk videos and you seem like a really cool guy and George is a total hottie I know I'm not trying to come on to your girl so you don't have to tell me you're going to punch me if I do. Lol
They who ? Who do you tell .. I am paying $20 a month for insurance just to find out that not for my stuff that's for their building. What kind of crap is that
I've had high end art & antiques stored at a facility in NYC / NJ ( Flat Rate Storage, now Smart Stop ) . Recently, I went to retrieve my items & they "could not locate" one of my units. Eventually, it was found ~ when it was opened, it looked in tact. Within minutes my head mover ( who happens to be a cop ) told me to start taking pictures. He was opening art boxes & the art was gone, taken from the frames. It turns out the unit had been ramsacked. All of my high end photography equipment was gone, alone with art, silver & even large pieces of furniture, lamps, etc., all gone. I'm still devastated ~ the storage facility refuses to help. We called the police to fill out a report & tomorrow are meeting with a detective. Overall, over $500K missing. I will never trust a storage facility again.
Everything valuable was taken look at the box that has a 7b with sharpie its turn around then in the tote in the middle there's like a plastic bag it's no longer there everything is different
I know damn well that I would go to the owner and have him handle it...it's his business...I don't take to being lied to or stolen from...you know that this isn't her first rodeo, my bullshit detector was f'n clangin'...if y'all don't stand your ground on this one....good luck...
Exactly..and why didn't she ask who it belonged to before taking it home? One to two weeks and still hasn't ask who it belongs to? How did she know it was the guitar that was in the locker? She told on herself.
My guess is there was a nice guitar in there, the thieving manager took it and switched it with some piece of junk. She was just acting too suspicious.
Jeremy you should have reported the manager. I bet this is a regular activity for her .Once she knows the original owners are in default she goes through the lockers
Story has a few holes 1. Who would remove the guitar and put it in the MAINTENANCE room. That just reduced the suspect list to employee's 2. Who just randomly takes stuff they find home. 3. Why wouldn't anyone open the guitar case before taking it home, even if it's just to check and make sure they guitar is actually in there instead of something illegal 4. Why didn't she bring up the security footage? It seems like she would be the only one to have access to that stuff as the Manager 5. Why wasn't there a lock on the unit Everything I just listen points to the Manager as the main suspect However, after seeing the guitar, it isn't too great, but It definitely isn't something you can get at walmart for 20 bucks, that it it would be incredibly difficult to find a guitar that fits near perfectly into the case in such a small amount of time, and the case is definitely more for an acoustic guitar than an electric one
All her body language "thief" she took it!!! Repetition Hale$ yes Jeremy.....you had her fumbling for words. Once she said "sorry" that many time's 👌🏼 guilty!!
Worse part of this whole situation is you will never be able to truly know if the units you buy from them are the units you bid on or if they have been scalped..
I used to store my baby clothes in mothballs...nothing could get rid of smell...hanging outside etc....but one thing ALWAYS worked, wash like normal but add 1/2 cup pine sol in wash water....no smell afterwards!
2nd answer, the manager would not have taken the guitar home if she found on the grounds...she would have investigated were and why it was there....Not taken it home.....Old in Idaho
When we cut locks for auction at our facility, we BOTH go out and cut the lock and take pictures and inventory and then we put a seal on the door and take a picture of the seal number once it is locked in place. The person who purchases the unit goes out with us when we take the lock and seal off and checks the number to confirm the seal has not been tampered with. We do not touch anything. We take all pictures from outside the unit and seal it and we always do it with BOTH people. That way there is no discrepancies.
Clearly Hales yes! Should have made her bring up the video of her stealing it! Even if it was in the "maintenance area" she should have never taken it home. And with only 3 people that work there, she easily stole it herself
Who the Hale$ do YOU think stole the guitar out of the Storage Unit AND do YOU think we got the real guitar that was originally in the locker?

Patrick Wilson I agree. THAT is why it took an hour to go get it.
Exactly..............
I agree! She did take the real one and put a kids one in it!
Come on she took it home without opening it?? YEAH RIGHT!!!
Switched guitar out. She got the Les Paul. You got the wal Mart.

That is what my question was. Why not put it in the office until she found out how it got out of the storage unit? Why take it home?

She can not pilfer before the unit is auctioned. The original owner may show up to pay his bill and he knows what the contents of the unit.
"I found it", "It's at my house", "I never even opened it" Yup, keep talking lady.
She sounds defensive, and why is it at her house why isn't it locked in the office
BINGO!!! That's What I Thought Too!!
And also why didn't she say anything about the guitar she found when he was talking to her about the one in the storage unit? He described it pretty well. Not to mention the fact that she mentioned theft pretty early on.
It didn't make any sense to me that she took it home to "figure it out" If it's not yours you don't take it home - like you said you lock it in the office.
We are in agreement on your suspicion.
Why not check out the CCTV footage?
She is the manager, not the owner. I would 1. report to the owner. 2. make sure all the storage auction buyers are aware of the shady goings on at that place.
Maybe the manger told her to get what she wanted
@@littlebuddysmom3944 there's no reason to believe that's true plus even if it is it's highly unethical. Once the unit is posted with pictures then that is what should be in there. People bid based on what they see in the pictures.
@@lindajacobs1487 If she replaced the manager then she is at least the temporary or acting manager. Maybe not permanently though.
@@littlebuddysmom3944 I doubt that seriously, then the manager ain't worth a s***. And yes I'm from the south
@@littlebuddysmom3944 It would have been the "owners" to tell her to do so if that is the case since she declared herself the manager... but any "good" owner would not do that because they would know that eventually word would get out and the "bidders pool" would drop substantially, thus consequently reduce the potential value of the abandoned units..The owners know the "bidders pool" is filled with people wanting to get a good deal and sell off the abandoned "goods" if the "pool" knows or suspects management theft they won't show up.. or their bidding would be affected by their suspicions
The blind panic on her face told you everything you needed to know.
At least everyone will know not to trust this unscrupulous woman. 🤬🤬🤬
Hi even if she found something in a maintenance room, she had no right to remove something from the property. "Found" ?
"FOUND"????
and the fact she took the item home and didnt look inside....yep that is very believable
@William Mills ok even if thats true in that state if you watched the vid you'd know the pictures didn't match it was after the auction or at very least during the auction
Office lady stole guitar. She's devastated because she was caught.
Manager says: "You... have pictures and... video? Who the Hales would do that? Oh, yeah. Sorry. Dumb question!"🤣
"I'm going to be very honest with you" actually means, "I'm transitioning and killing time to come up with a quick, weak LIE".
As many times as Jeremy mentioned the guitar case the Manager never said anything about finding the guitar case. I think the manager is a thief. and I think she switched the guitar out on you.
I agree 100%
When the manager said honestly and she never opened it she's the thief no doubt about it
One thing I cannot understand is did you not have a lock on it and where they're not cameras around
@@rustygreen6771 I'm guessing it's one that he bought on-line. He did say that he lived 1.5 hrs away and I can't see someone driving that far for an auction and not taking anything back with them. If that's the case then he wouldn't have been able to put a lock on it.
I agree 100%
She is a terrible liar. It makes you wonder who else she has done this too.
Hell No this is not her fist time
I think she stole it herself and just got caught. Why would she take it to her house and even admits to have it there for about two weeks and goes further mentioning that she hasn't opened. Why would someone take a bag or a case or box home without knowing what's in it? A normal person wouldn't do that, I know I wouldn't. Two whole weeks without opening it. Could be something dangerous or explosive. She's lying, no doubt about it.
Just put yourself in this situation, you find something that is NOT yours and you take it home, two weeks go by and you still haven't opened? I don't think so.
She's a lying bitch and she knows it.
Sometimes old people are more likely to commit crimes than younger people. Mostly because they think nobody will suspect of their old a$$.
Good thing you shared this, other people dealing with her should be on the look out.
I think it’s the manager. And she got busted and that’s why she’s willing it to bring it to you
Oh no it’s Karen, you cannot speak to my manager
I’m not one of those Karen’s!! 😂😂
And probably switched it for that cheap junk guitar she probably stole from a different unit that locker could have had all kinds of nice things she could have stole her body movements and the way she was talking gave her away big time she’s lying 🤥
Always check the tag number on the unit to the one that is listed if it is a online auction it will have the number on your receipt check the tag before the manager removes it for tapering I am a manager of of a Storage facility. My DM and myself prep the units together never alone cut the lock take the pictures and upload the unit to the online Auction. This manager clearly took this item you never take anything home you put it in the office or store room for at least 30 days to see if anyone claims the item. and then add the item to a manager build up unit for abandon units or left behind items that are worth selling . The owner of this facility should be notified and know that he or she has a thief working for them.
Jarhead semperfi - nice to hear how things are supposed to be done!
I didn’t even open it, I didn’t even open it!😳I believe the management is your culprit????? 😪
hales NO! you got her kid's 7th grade practice guitar. she kept the Bob Marley autographed 6 string electric Gibson.
Lol Bob Marleys guitar in OHIO ? Lol bit if a stretch 😂
Yep, I agree!
T
That guitar did not fit the case, manager took it then switched it. report her to the owners of the storage place, give them your video and the remarks here on what others think happened.
Her head was working overtime when you kept mentioning the guitar when you first went to the office! From the photo it was not exactly clear what is was that was missing but she knew exactly what it was. Also as someone mentioned earlier, she found the case in maintenance and took it home without checking inside to see what it was. First instinct is to look inside, unless you already know! Also you wouldn't take property home unless you planned on keeping it for yourself. Good catch!
Question. Why would someone take an inventory of a storage unit that was sold. She took the guitar. She got caught.
and why would the manager take it home after finding it in maintenance?
Manager stole it, figured you wouldn't notice.
Everything in that unit was moved, there was a box in the front in the OG photo that said 7B on it and it was gone or moved with the guitar as well. THey likely ditched the guitar in the maitenance room after opening it and realizing it was worthless junk. But Someone raided that unit quick for fast cash. Disgusting. It's always scummy employees too. They break into units and steal peoples things or use their power to get into units to do it. There should be cameras on every unit door and in every unit and the unit owners should have online access to the camera feed and recordings for their unit at all times in case of crooked employees. And people put mothballs in stored things to prevent rodents and bugs wrecking or getting into the stuff. The smell easily washes out.
She's devastated? Devastated that she got caught stealing!
She's not even a good liar!
Hales no you didn't get the right Guitar!! I bet you go throw some of his pictures u will find the right Guitar!!
She probably went to a Goodwill or pawn shop and bought one real quick 😂
I was thinking the same thing. I bet this person played christian music in church band. If so why would he have a junkie guitar? If anyone is gonna play in a band, church or rock... Most people don't want junk to play on. Cheap guitars arw fine to learn on for beginners and then upgrade to much better when you can play all the cords. Plus as small as that guitar looked it look to be a cheap beginners guitar she prolly found a pawn shop and kept the original. I hope they find out thw truth. Sad world we live in we people wanna be theives and lie about it. I hope anyone watching this video from that area needs to go check their unit and see if anything is missing. If Id take myself elsewhere to be stored right away and spread word. And call the BBB and report them.
She took it !!!!!
@@Buzinfree777 it's possible he played yet at church! A lot of churches have had guitars for years! That's a brilliant idea! That would work in a court of law. I wouldn't be surprised if it was a vintage Gibson which is worth thousands
No one would waste money storing s cheap guitar for years. There must have been something of value in the unit.
I've watched a lot of these videos and I agree. It's so clear to me that some items have been stolen, I'm surprised to see how many empty boxes are found, also, empty gun holsters.
Come on,. It was the manager. Why would she take anything home?
I think the manager took it. She said she found it in maintenance room and all of a sudden it is at her house.
Taking anything found home would be a fireable offense anywhere else. Heck if I found a dollar on the ground at my work and I pocketed it and took it home, I'd get fired even if I had "intentions" to bring it back in. That's not the guitar we were looking for.
Question - who has access to the ,maintenance room ?? 👀
I think manager was so rattled it WAS the guitar in the Locker and she wishes it was nicer at this moment:) What a tough business .Good eye
Yea she stole it. And why would she keep saying “I never even opened it”.
You're right she stole it. She was devastated and so sorry cause she got caught. Then she brought back the wrong guitar for sure.
@Hank Menendez it looked like a gibson case that guitar was to small for that she kept the it and put crapy one in just saying, who knows
I would never buy storage units from them again. Because you'll never find nothing valuable because as long as she's there!!!! DON'T BUY THERE INTIL SHE IS GONE.
She is so literally making crap she crap up as she is talking! I would call the cops and let them get to the bottom of the truth. And if I was the other workers, I would be not happy at all.
Find out the name of the person who owned the locker and ask him/her.
if she found it and knew itwasnt hers whyd she take it home na i aint beliveing that
HALES no you got one of the others she has stolen. Check her local Facebook marketplace to see what she is selling
Excellent idea!
Down the Rabbit Hole hey that’s a great idea
@@emilyg9142 How would he have her name?
No I did not. It was a suggestion for what the hales
Manager did it. Very easy to discern based on her answers, approach, and reaction to this. I have interviewed 100's of criminals and she has the tell tale signs of lying.
Manager trying to cover herself. Shes so nervous and didn't pull up the video of who stole it.
Anything you can do? If that red POS can be said to be worth $50 it’s grand theft larceny. Bye bye Manager.
Yep. This. If I admitted that it ended up in my house, I would feel compelled to run back the video, see who walked out of the storage room with it, and show that it wasn't me. Her reputation was on the line, and she didn't fully defend it. Telling.
Whats That? Yup. She took it! And it's NOT the first time she's stolen from storage units
"She never even opened it?" This sounds very suspicious. Why would you take it to your house without opening it??
Not only that, she claims to have found it in the maintenance room. Why would she take it from there in the first place? I think she's the one that took it right from the unit.
@@trreb1 She definitely took it out of the locker and probably has been cherry picking them for a while now. I also think she took the guitar out and replaced it with that junky one. The clues mount up against her. First thing I wanna touch on is why she "lives" a hour away? I wouldnt drive a hour to go to a storage unit job. And doesnt most managers live on site??? I think she took that time to switch out the guitars. When she starts breaking down to cry that's a huge red flag. Let's get attention off me and divert it to someone else. Her body language tells the whole story.
Why would you have to tell someone that you didn't open it lol.
Would you take home a container that represents something, but really isn't, and never open it??.. IF we buy into the story that she didn't know what was in there should we assume she tried to steal a couple kilos of cocaine.. or weapons. Everyone knows the best place to hide a sub machine gun is in a guitar case
@@TheMacgill Easy enough to tell..... ask for the general area she lives in and see if it takes 20-25 minutes to get there..... if its only a few minutes then why would she have needed so much time??? hmmmmm
The manager took it for sure... You brought up the guitar 5 times and she knew she "found" one but decided to take it home.... Yeah, I don't believe that for a second
Manager was being less than honest, the storage place owners should be informed
Wow, first time mentioning guitar, she hesitated big time, so..
What The Hale's was that for?
Found it in Maintenance room, took it home, there's video cameras in that building, she could have watched video to see who took it, wait, she knows who did.. HERSELF
Great video, love y'all taking us with y'all on this Hale's of a good time day trip..
Send me all Bible's that you want to.. I'll give them to teenagers who go to church, but don't have one..
I noticed that too. When Jeremy mentioned it she probably thought crap. He noticed it
That Manager stole that guitar after You won the auction and then made up that story on the fly 100%
You should get in contact with the previous unit owner and ask what kind of guitar was in there. I'd definitely escalate this to the owner of the unit / corporate.
I find that the phrase "I'll be perfectly honest with you" is a dead giveaway that she isn't.
Also "I never even opened it"...yeah, 👌
I worked for a storage facility. You'd be surprised at some of the things I was able toick up, free. If someone emptied their storage unite anything left was free. I have a 10' dark walnut dining table, seats 8 with the original paperwork and pewter seal on the underside of the table. Chairs still have original covering. I contacted the company and was told it would be over $7,000 to replace. It is beautiful. Didn't have a scratch on it until my husband was bringing it in the house.
She said she’s gonna play detective. Lmao what the hales. She’s guilty. He said guitar like 40 times and then BOOM they pull up the pics. “Oh that guitar. Yeah I have it at my house ........hmmmm shady af. She’s guilty. Enough Said.
Yupppppp!
She is guilty of stealing whatever you claim. Because she, is the thief who stole, not an employee.
SHE IS THE THIEF!!!
She wouldn't take home worthless guitar! Of course, she stole it. She's selling it online?
Sylvia Oertel the funny thing is he asked about the guitar like 40 times. Even showed her. And then once he said something. Now she has it. Hmmm. What the hales. She’s a crook
Did you see how nervous she got? It was like, "oh my god I've got caught!!! what am I going to do?
She tells you she lives an hour away so she can try and get the guitar back to whoever she sold it or pawned it to!
You should go back and put the fear of God in her! Demand the right guitar.
She has probably stolen things from ALL the units!!! She was talking sooo hesitantly...… THAT tells me she is not a good liar!!!
Is there a such thing as a good liar? 😉
Michael Murray Unfortunately there is.
"Thou shalt not steal" is one of the Big 10.
She makes no sense. If you "found" the guitar case in the maintenance room.......still doesnt give you the right to take it home. Sorry to say....pretty sure she just took it probably thinking it wasnt that noticible in the picture and it wouldnt be missed.
Aw man! The manager is guilty as hell! She couldn’t turn round from the computer because she couldn’t face you, LITERALLY. She could hardly reply to you speaking because she was in a state of fear as she was caught and she was trying very hard to think up a story. Plus, you mentioned a guitar missing several times and she did not crack a light. If you found a guitar at work and took it home you would connect the two instantly. That’s not her first rodeo that’s for sure her house is likely filled with pieces she takes from every locker. Shocking.
Maisie unless she sells them
Douglasville Darling yeah true more than likely xx
she took it and traded it out for a kiddy guitar, tell the owner or she will do it to others!
I agree definitely report her or you will be doing a disservice to the storage bidding community
She was acting shady as hell!!! Reporting her to the authorities as well as her employer is the only logical thing to do.
I love your guys this video you and George are hilarious and you find the greatest stuff and I love the trunk videos and you seem like a really cool guy and George is a total hottie I know I'm not trying to come on to your girl so you don't have to tell me you're going to punch me if I do. Lol
@@emilyg9142 are you guessing or you know this? Very interesting.
They who ? Who do you tell .. I am paying $20 a month for insurance just to find out that not for my stuff that's for their building. What kind of crap is that
They have cameras all over but can't figure who actually took the guitar.
Or who put it in the maintenance rm. Alrighty then !
Malfunctioning camera. Same brand as in Epstein's cell. Pity🤥🙄
I've had high end art & antiques stored at a facility in NYC / NJ ( Flat Rate Storage, now Smart Stop ) . Recently, I went to retrieve my items & they "could not locate" one of my units. Eventually, it was found ~ when it was opened, it looked in tact. Within minutes my head mover ( who happens to be a cop ) told me to start taking pictures. He was opening art boxes & the art was gone, taken from the frames. It turns out the unit had been ramsacked. All of my high end photography equipment was gone, alone with art, silver & even large pieces of furniture, lamps, etc., all gone. I'm still devastated ~ the storage facility refuses to help. We called the police to fill out a report & tomorrow are meeting with a detective. Overall, over $500K missing. I will never trust a storage facility again.
Wow.....they have cameras.... someone will be held accountable....
From Baltimore Maryland
Hales yes she took it, and didn't think you'd notice.
Yep someone got their hand in the cookie jar great job detective Hales 🤓🕵️♂️
She was surprised that she got caught..... you got a replacement guitar
Everything valuable was taken look at the box that has a 7b with sharpie its turn around then in the tote in the middle there's like a plastic bag it's no longer there everything is different
Hales yes the manager took it. And why it took hour to bring it back she had to go to a pawn shop to buy a cheap one.
Probably had lots of stolen guitars at her house.
@@happyinharned9583 her whole house is probably full of stolen items.
The manager stole it hands down
I'll never point blame but I'll use logic, if you found something that doesn't belong to you why would you take it home??
I know damn well that I would go to the owner and have him handle it...it's his business...I don't take to being lied to or stolen from...you know that this isn't her first rodeo, my bullshit detector was f'n clangin'...if y'all don't stand your ground on this one....good luck...
I would have put it in my office so all my employees could see it. I would have took care of it the day I found it.
Exactly..and why didn't she ask who it belonged to before taking it home? One to two weeks and still hasn't ask who it belongs to? How did she know it was the guitar that was in the locker? She told on herself.
kelly keller and why would she even admit to having it? If she kept her mouth shut no one would know she had it
My guess is there was a nice guitar in there, the thieving manager took it and switched it with some piece of junk. She was just acting too suspicious.
Jeremy you should have reported the manager. I bet this is a regular activity for her .Once she knows the original owners are in default she goes through the lockers
Manager took it. Hales Yes! I wouldn’t bid on any other lockers from her.Just wonder what she has stolen from other people.
She stole loads!
That lady flat out stole it. And probably lots more!
Story has a few holes
1. Who would remove the guitar and put it in the MAINTENANCE room. That just reduced the suspect list to employee's
2. Who just randomly takes stuff they find home.
3. Why wouldn't anyone open the guitar case before taking it home, even if it's just to check and make sure they guitar is actually in there instead of something illegal
4. Why didn't she bring up the security footage? It seems like she would be the only one to have access to that stuff as the Manager
5. Why wasn't there a lock on the unit
Everything I just listen points to the Manager as the main suspect
However, after seeing the guitar, it isn't too great, but It definitely isn't something you can get at walmart for 20 bucks, that it it would be incredibly difficult to find a guitar that fits near perfectly into the case in such a small amount of time, and the case is definitely more for an acoustic guitar than an electric one
All her body language "thief" she took it!!! Repetition Hale$ yes Jeremy.....you had her fumbling for words. Once she said "sorry" that many time's 👌🏼 guilty!!
Hales yeah!!
She mentioned someone had been stealing before she got started on the computer
She's sorry she got caught.
Worse part of this whole situation is you will never be able to truly know if the units you buy from them are the units you bid on or if they have been scalped..
I used to store my baby clothes in mothballs...nothing could get rid of smell...hanging outside etc....but one thing ALWAYS worked, wash like normal but add 1/2 cup pine sol in wash water....no smell afterwards!
I just have to mention Hale man, you have a great and lovely partner in George, you are one very lucky guy.
@16:50 pre-recorded VHS tapes actually sell quite well on the Bay in lots. People buy them to erase and use as blanks. Sort them by brand.
Yeah if it's TV on them. I buy them myself . you find lots of stuff that has been deleted or hasn't been shown again since it was first aired.
Good job you filmed it Ithink the manager won't be surprise if they stop you filming how many other things have gone missing love your show
Unless she has video proving otherwise I think she took it. Methinks she doth protest too much.
2nd answer, the manager would not have taken the guitar home if she found on the grounds...she would have investigated were and why it was there....Not taken it home.....Old in Idaho
Fridays are meant to wear RED for Remember Everyone Deployed!
She needs to get fired!!!! PERIOD! 😠
It’s very sad that we live in a society that has no moral compass anymore.
When we cut locks for auction at our facility, we BOTH go out and cut the lock and take pictures and inventory and then we put a seal on the door and take a picture of the seal number once it is locked in place. The person who purchases the unit goes out with us when we take the lock and seal off and checks the number to confirm the seal has not been tampered with. We do not touch anything. We take all pictures from outside the unit and seal it and we always do it with BOTH people. That way there is no discrepancies.
Clearly Hales yes! Should have made her bring up the video of her stealing it! Even if it was in the "maintenance area" she should have never taken it home. And with only 3 people that work there, she easily stole it herself
She is the manager so I am pretty sure any video evidence is long gone
she be a lair and a thief there is no doubt about that~! shameful how she accuses her employees of doing it
Wow!it still amazes me how people steals and look straight you in the eye and lie!!😲
My question is why did SHE take it home? And no, I'd say it was swapped.
I would love to see Joe Kenda handle that storage unit manager....”well, my my my”....
That would be awesome as hell to see that.
She really waited for you guys to buy it then stole out of it then blame some of the employees 😂
Was anyone else hollering “BULL 💩” when she said she “found” the guitar....?!?!?
