On Aug. 24, Rio Rancho police responded to a shoplifting at the Walmart Supercenter at Unser and Southern, according to a criminal complaint filed in Municipal Court. Store security told police that two boys were 鈥渁cting disorderly around the store, knocking over displays and concealing items.鈥

Police said officers identified the boys as Ethridge鈥檚 sons and found the family in the self-checkout area and 鈥渁dvised them of the allegations.鈥 Officers watched surveillance video, which showed the boys opening energy drinks, drinking some and putting them on the shelf again.

While reviewing the footage, officers saw Ethridge 鈥渟kip scanning鈥 items 鈥 which means pretending to scan items through self-checkout without paying, according to the complaint. Officers said Ethridge would 鈥渟can some items and not others.鈥

鈥淭he sum of all unpaid merchandise, including the energy drinks the boys consumed, was $104.20,鈥 according to police.

On Thursday, Ethridge鈥檚 attorney, filed a motion to withdraw his guilty plea and said he had initially pleaded guilty 鈥渨anting to get this case over with as expeditiously as possible鈥 and 鈥渋n spite of the fact that he did not intentionally steal any items.鈥

In the motion, Ethridge said he didn鈥檛 know the items had not been scanned and 鈥渁sked to pay for the unscanned items.鈥

鈥淭he store refused to do this and pressed charges of shoplifting against Mr. Ethridge instead,鈥 according to the motion.
