Ezal: Aw, oh my God, oh my God, oh my God. God. Oh, I’m hurt. Oh, my neck, my back, my neck and my back. Oh, I want $150,000, but we can settle out of court right now for twenty bucks.
A Florida woman thought she was going to pull a fast one on her local grocery store with the “slip-n-fall” then sue scam. What she didn’t know was that this particular supermarket had just dropped $30,000 on a casino like security system.
Diaz decided to do a little investigating on his own and rewound the surveillance tape back even more, and what he found surprised him. On the tape, the same woman, in the same aisle, minutes before her ’slip and fall’ accident. On the tape, the woman appears to be trying to open a bottle of olive oil unsuccessfully. The woman puts it back on the shelf, leaves the aisle only to return a few moments later and pick up a new bottle. The tape shows her opening this bottle and pouring some of the oil onto the floor, then she puts the bottle back on the shelf and leaves the aisle.
This lady is obviously not a criminal mastermind. Who puts the bottle back on the same shelf? Did she really think no one would connect the olive oil on the floor to the half full bottle on the shelf? At least stash the bottle over in the soda aisle or something. Secondly if you are going to try to pull this scam you have to commit to it. If you are afraid to fall on your back then this isn’t your gig. Nobody walks into a puddle of olive oil and falls forward unless they are backpedaling down the aisle like a DB covering a wide receiver.
