A TikTok user named Terriona Yancey used this platform to raise her voice against some employees of a Walmart store located in Galesburg, Illinois, after they caused her mother a severe anxiety attack after falsely accusing her of theft.
The clip that has gone viral on the internet shows the face of 4 Walmart employees, who according to Yancey, pointed out to his mother that he had stolen several basic necessities after leaving the the self-service checkout.
Walmart employees began to check her mother’s supermarket cart while other customers walked past her, making fun of her and recording her because they thought she really was a thief.
“They grabbed her when she was leaving and accused her of stealing a store full of people laughing and recording, they thought I had actually stolen something, ”explained the TikTok user.
In the clip you can see 2 employees of the a Walmart store in Illinois removing the products from the cart while another worker was writing down each item. The victim of said accusation told them that it was the most shameful thing he had ever experienced in his life and that he was innocent.
One of the employees, who identified himself as Alec, tells the woman that a bottle of soda and another of water had been stolen; however, the employee who had written everything down told him that these actually did appear on the ticket.
The video ends when the accused demands an apology for having treated like a criminal, but Walmart employees refuse to do so.
As if that were not enough, after what happened, the client wanted to return all the products she had bought and demanded a refund. In addition, in the store she had to receive support from her husband because she suffered an anxiety crisis.
Yancey also indicated in another clip that after what happened, her mother tried to call the corporate office to submit a complaint about what they experienced but nobody gave them an answer, so they already turned to a lawyer to see how they can proceed in the face of what happened.
The video has more than 11 millions of views, as well as thousands of comments that disapprove of the attitude of the Walmart employees. As if that were not enough, the TikTok user indicated that no one has been reprimanded for her action and that she also learned that recently, a Hispanic client was falsely accused of theft again.
