Brandon Lee Henry, 19, and Latisha Lamson, 21, stole $756 worth of goods from Walmart yesterday to pay off a bet he lost on Saturday’s UT football game. Henry was seen running out of the store with a shopping cart containing a flat-screen TV and several other items in boxes, according to the officer’s report. The officer read the two their rights and then asked them about the stolen merchandise.
quote:
“I asked Mr. Henry where the merchandise was located at,” the report says.
“He stated the boxes were in the woods and the rest was given to two other individuals. I asked him why he stole the items.
“He stated he had lost a bet on the Tennessee Vols game on Saturday. He stated he gave the TV and Blu-ray player to the subject he lost the bet to. He stated he owed the subject $150.”
And Henry allegedly told the officer he stole the vacuum cleaner for a friend’s wife because “she had said she wanted one.”
