How Investigators Hunt Down Cooking Oil Thieves 

@Mr applesauce what an exquisite taste pallet u obtain.

@@Alyjah777 up yours Pierre

😂😂😂

Lol he typical merican

Ik :(

YEAH I NOTCIED THAT TOO LIKE WTF

I guess he doesn't look like the type that would sue.🤔

Means maybe he signed papers for release? But I find that hard to believe

I was thinking the same too

because he is on police records, and did not sign the "pls don't record my face"

Can you be more specific about what your talking about

List Mist his facial expression idiot what else is their to specify

@@__-xp2np 1:07

👁 👄 👁 that’s his dumb surprised face

But was he even stealing? He was getting the oil from a recycling bin behind the restaurants. He probably thought he was getting oil that people didn't want.

Fr

Mr applesauce well you never know what he been through, for all we know this could be his only way of making money.

Maybe do it righteously and you'll be good

@Mr applesauce sometimes getting a good job isn't so simple

Oh boo hoo. He chose to break the law and got caught. He deserves to pay for his crimes.

The left doesn't know what to do right now.

Factsssss

Imagine making this political couldn’t be me 🌚

@@michaelmayhem123 the left? What does politics have to do with this? I think you need a glass stomach, you'll definitely never pull your head out of your a**.

@@polaroidsofpolarbears365 I know, right? Why does someone feel the need to insert politics into this?

Me too

Not for liquid gold, it's like liquid gold!!

you can still burn them. or refind it to a engine oil... not really worth it right now... if he got 1,000 buck and the trunk cost 30,000 plus insurance and fuel.. he had to drive around all day and only profit for few 100 bucks...

I heard that as a kid

campkira Definitely liquid gold profit

Thought it was put out there because it was already paid for and someone else has to come pick it up.

Exactly, government always wants an excuse to make arrests just to make money, the guy looks harmless in a harmless crime

They said it in the beginning. Someone is contracted to take the used oil and refine it for resale. Most likely back to the resraurante at a discounted rate probably.

@@Darkness8536 thats poison🤯🤯🤯🤯

@@RyZCV The report said it is used to manufacture other products, not that it is used in food prep after refinement.

Thank you someone who knows!

And we know for a fact GOP wants us dependent on OIL. Many companies sell to other companies to make bio fuel. Recycling is for today and the future.

By refined do you mean passing it through a screen lol i know a old man with a 1970s Mercedes it literally runs on anything .

@@RSR8485 what I mean is that used cooking oil can be turned into biofuel for vehicles when you put it in a refinery.

@@mongoose1788no refinery needed i seen cars run on it just like that just take the chuncks out .

Them asians look happy outside but damn ragin in the inside

Same man, i feel bad for him 😭

Oh come on !

I know right he just wanted to get some food that he probably didn't get to finish and had no point on paying it Since he got arrested but at the same time he did take grease.

trollinghard okay you ain’t had to call them THEM ASIANS you doing to much

The bots were on this one.

dude i was looking at that drink looks so good

how many flippin bots

Lol

Your man? Like your husband? 🤣😂

So you didnt finish the video i take it lol

Jose, you can't be this dumb!

@@CorderralLewisit still doesn’t make sense. If i threw away left over food in the trash and someone picks it up, am i gonna call the police? No. Its used oil left outside with no security. This is just dumb

🙄they not even affecting u let them be and pay use it for they income snitch

What if it was your own money getting stolen especially with covid and big time loss of sales??????

Ik im sorry but greese is not affecting anyone 🤦🏻

Can you stop commenting you’re like in every video you’re so annoying

I love Potatoes I wasn’t talking abt you but damn I am lol

ikr

The best part, is that they hyped up the value so much and it turns out it's only $2 a gallon😂😭

He drove 150 miles all day amd didnt even get to eat it smh.

Understandable still doesn’t mean you can steal. Because now other people have it hard.

It's also dangerous because the cook food in the old grease and sell it to people

Yeah right,a modern day Robin Hood.Theft is theft.

Stealing $1000 worth of grease a day is not struggling

Good to hear the government is spending money to catch the real criminals instead of doing something about the drug epidemic

So is theft not a crime?

@@sethlancaster369 it may be defined as theft but he’s literally taking used cooking oil. its not like anyone will suffer because he’s taking waste that i don’t believe anyone will even use anymore.

@@sethlancaster369 if he didn't know his boss should be arrested not him

Most restaurants give it away

That’s straight up embarrassing. Imagine wasting your life to do something so useless LMAO

Imagine being a pathetic criminal that steals cooking oil

@@hugoortiz1159 respect the hustle

He’s a retired police officer so no he hasn’t dedicated his life to this also imagine dedicating your life to stealing used cooking oil...

Should be it’s a whole country /s

Well you must not be that old

500 gallon for 1000$. That’s 2$ a gallon. Not bad I guess.

12. You were 12 years old

Lol😂

01:32

It goes to another company dude. There's a business that buys that used oil. Thats why its in that bin.

They receylce ot smart one

Lol they don't throw it away though. I work at a restaurant and we have this machine that we put the oil in. But our machine is inside the back of the store. The machine is supposed to clean it or something.

Many people do it to this day, and I didn't know that it was illegal don't they just throw that grease away anyway,

Shipping wars there's that couple where his truck ran on used cooking oil and they would go around just getting oil out of random restaurants

As we say here on the grease squad ...itsa dirty job but im the only one doing it

If you think about it 1000 dollars in 1 day is a higher income than most lawful workers ($30,000 in 1 month) . Therefore, what did guy is doing isn't innocent. Also, he has a fuel truck which isn't cheap. So, he has obviously done this before, and was pretty successful with it.

@@slkjess1206 also, it rightfully belongs to the restaurant. They have it out there to resell, not throw out. If it were there to be disposed of...then I’d understand folks saying “well it’s only 1000$ worth of grease, or one man’s trash is anothers’ treasure”.....but the grease is a source of income for the restaurants, so it’s stealing plain and simple.

Imagine if you stole $1,000 a day as your day job? That's more than $260K in stolen goods. FAR more than the average income. You still gonna "smh" this one, buttercup?

@@ItsMotoMatt who said he stole $1000 a day? This is one of his off days and he made bank, "buttercup"

THANKYOUU

Lol

“Bored”

I haven’t got the biggest clue Bored,

Tbh... Why is stealing THROWN OUT GREASE a crime?

You're a proud thief? Sheesh. Zero integrity.

@@jamie6387 it’s just grease 😂 who cares what happens to it

It matters not what it is, stealing/theft is NEVER right. It doesn't matter if your stealing used grease or money from a bank, its all the same and the reason doesn't matter. The law cannot say it's okay for you to steal grease to feed your family or to buy a yacht. Same difference! If it doesn't belong to you, it's a no go EVERYTIME.

or just get a job like a normal person

My dude is a smart thief making at least 1k a day.

Yea, he is probably working for someone else too

Lol yeah just let the man eat his pizza and drink his slushy u dont know the person so why should u think hes bad he might have a reason maybe thats his way of living

😂😂

After a hard day at work lol

Lol that's all

@@jamie6387 whats so bad about the guy stealing grease?

@@creative-Combat because it costs business money which in turn costs people thier jobs

Jamie why do you keep defending the grease police you loser

@@jamie6387 i dont see a problem stealing USED grease. i mean if its raw and new then itll cost the business money, but this is USED so its basically just waste

That part

Employers will see this video too.

@Gerald Tyler they set him up. He needed money. Police need funding.

That's what I'm saying. Seems really petty.

Then dont do something illegal

$1000 a day is $350,000 a year, does he have 50 kids?

@@rayandaas1695 how do you know he does this every day? Also his employer make a profit on the grease, meaning what he makes is closer to 200-300 dollars.

@Melania Farrón the restaurant has to pay the city to pick it up. When this person is clearly it out for you for free.

@@konglee7284 you're clearly getting scammed if your restaurant need to pay a recycling company to pick your used grease.

True

You clearly didn't watch the video lol it literally says they refine it and resell it....

Basically he's not stealing. I bet you whoever's go pump the dirty oil don't pay for them either.

because the restaurants already pay someone to come and haul it away for them. a legitimate business. stealing is still stealing

Do you know that you can also use cooking grease for fuel for vehicles

This is a health hazard. These people reuse this dirty filthy grease in foods etc so unless you’re ok with that don’t feel bad

Underestimating these small thing is why USA doesnt flinch when they learn "just a flu" kill 20k people in their country each year. They become insensive and look at where that brought you now.

That's because all murders get to go free, with the midyear murder sale. Going on now.

Begone thOT

Thanks for clarifying.

Do they get payed though? I have friend who owns a restaurant but he told me that he Pays in order to get his used grease recycled.

They should take it IT LEAVES THE OCEAN MORE CLEANER

@@MorrisWilsonFvcks becuase he had to paid for trash it ... so either way... you paid part of it and they cash backk some of it.. if it got stolen then it don't matter much...

So don't start going around stealing your just gonna make it worse now he probably got a criminal record it will be hard for him to get a job now

😂😂

Nicholas Li if they’re so scarred of it getting stolen maybe they should lock the container

@Nicholas Li That still doesn't give anyone the right to steal

Maybe if he didn’t steal, he’d finish eating his food

This is a good explanation of what all this is about, information goes a long way once you explain it instead of this wasted talk that does not help Thank you for those who don't know.

It's just as stupid as almost all fast food companies have policies if food is going to be thrown out at the end of the day you're not allowed to take it if you do it's considered theft even if it was already going to the garbage they don't want us to have anything for free even if it's not considered edible by their standards cuz I recently worked at Wendy's and the corporate policy was they want you to always have fresh burgers and if it's been there for longer than five minutes it's no longer fresh thankfully Wendy's reuses their burger meat but McDonald's doesn't there's several wasteful policies in the name of freshness even though it won't Be fresh for another 10 minutes there's enough food to go around there's enough money to go around there's more than enough resources to go around it's just the corporate interest in corporate greed is preventing everyone to have their fair share because if you knew how much corporations paid to manufacture an individual Burger you would feel like they're stealing from you because they cost 90% less than their value this world is built by corporations for corporations we just have the right to live in their world wait until corporations have more power than the government

Also illegal because the freelance recyclers sell to Chinese restaurants and spread unsafe cooking oil to consumers

Look up Chinese sewer oil, this is just the same practice being brought to America

@@TriNguyen-he7xk shush, charlie chan

@@JAHSHIFT and if you're a small-time business the police won't do anything but if your corporation they will do something about it the government only cares about big corporations if they were stealing grease from a mom-and-pop shop the police wouldn't intervene

Your waste is someone's bio diesel is no different than going to a fuel station and stealing 500 gallons of diesel.

Yeah, except junk is junk, and the only reason it’s considered stealing is because the thief is in doing that, put in a position where he doesn’t pay for taxes on fuel and is actually enjoying the benefits of having fuel... that is the crime, enjoyment without the sacrifice that would turn the enjoyment into a trade of necessary(money) for pleasure(warmth or speed if used in a car)... you can’t just simply enjoy yourself... that’s illegal... same reason whoring is illegal, as you cant set a tax rate for someone enjoying a whore’s pussy... if the pimps would pay taxes on their income from the whores, all that would be legal, as nothing is ever a problem if profit can be made on it by those who write the laws my dear dear friend...

@@ahritomic5185 Whether its junk or not its considered stealing because hes taking something thats not his. Not too difficult of a concept to figure out.

i completely agree

@@frozen-curmudgeon but its in the bin the owners clearly dont want it

You do realize you can make 10k everyday stealing grease right, the reason why it's theft it's because it's refined into biofuel.

@@atebits you can’t plead ignorance buddy.

It not trash it can be turned into fuel. Collecting rain water on the other it just collecting stuff on your property

How so? Can you elaborate? You realize that grease container is secured with a lock this guy had to break off in order to collect this grease and the value of the grease is shared with the restaurant from the rendering company. This is literal theft.

By stealing oil. The companies pay restaurants for their used oils.

Clearly you don’t understand some restaurants get paid for the oil!! So yes he’s stealing oil that may be reused by other companies that paid for it which is illegal. Since he didn’t get permission.

Did you not watch? The grease distributors reuse and repurpose the oil. It's not in the trash to get thrown away. It's used grease that is cleaned and reused

We have a rendering plant in our home town that converts organic waste material into dog foodies

Why would you feel bad for a theif.

Yellow Grease, Used Cooking Oil (UCO) is a commodity just like copper. He is a thief and you don't go around stealing things that aren't yours. The grease is not trash it is a valuable commodity.

They actually prefer the term "grease pirate"

Me also

what about the catalytic thieves?

No, it can be used as biofuel once it’s refined for trucks
