Her technique of stealing the items may not have been sophisticated, but Louise had some serious BDE to be a black girl raised poor in the US and manage to integrate into high society in foreign countries. Did she even speak French when she convinced a random guy to drive her to Belgium?
After this documentary she continued with the taking of jewelry. Last thing presented was in 2017. Got caught almost every time, continued to get out after just a couple months because of jail overcrowding etc.
This story reminds me of the movie based on a true story "Catch Me if You Can." Maybe that is why people kind of like her even though she is a criminal. They need to use this lady and her "know how" to train jewelry store owners and employees how "not to get robbed."
@@t2t249 Yes, besides Carmen sandiego used all sorts of gadgets and she taunted the authorities. I think a closer comparison is this woman is her stealthy opposite.
She was good, but she should have never given up her secrets. She had to survive and she did, yet she went to prison did her time. Now she will live quietly somewhere and she will be okay. She survived and knew how to play the game and did it with such class.
Why are you mistaking being soft-spoken with having class? She's literally from rural West Virginia and has now been stealing for 8 decades. She is the antithesis of class.
I too love this woman. It made me happy to see her smile and laugh while telling her story. She seems like a sweet lady who just liked a bit of thrill in her life. She never hurt or scared anybody so YOU GO GIRL lol.
@@ravpol14403:49 she had a “family to support” I’m assuming she had kids since they spoke of her husband and didn’t say “she had a husband to support” it’s called common sense or drawing a reasonable inference.
Lol i know its wrong but DAMN i was routing for her. To bring oneself out of poverty as a young black girl in rural west virginia, takes a special kind of chutzpah lol i dont condone her actions but damn, those skills of survivals are something else lol
No you do not steal from other people. Monaco UK London are all cheap places. When she escaped she suddenly had new clothes? Passports do not cost anything? I can name some more. Dont call the racist card because she dint have a problem in europe. 😁Well you got 3 like's in a month.
Hopefully, this video will teach talented non-viloent criminals that there is a good time to stop and to capitalize on the fame and to write an autobiography, perhaps. Otherwise, a criminal profession is not like a trade and you can do it as long as your health allows you to.
This lady is fabulously hilarious, 😂😂the old lady scam works every time😅😅 Human nature is predictable, if you bother to pay attention like the queen 😂❤❤l
You can come live with me while you get your law degree, granny. It's not too late. You can entertain me with stories about ripping off jewelry stores in your 70s.
I remember lifting a ring from a store in downtown Detroit surprised at how easy it was. I eventually learned my lesson since sitting in jail wasn't worth it.
It's despicable the story that she clearly crafted to excuse her petty theft in WV. What's wrong with simply admitting you were always a thief? Why do you have to give a reason for why you became a thief? The documentary states that she "had to steal her way out", as if they allowed her to write the episode for her.
Criminals are the same irrespective of age or gender, she blames the jewelry salesman for the mix treatment ( good /bad) when she was a young girl that's why she decided to be stealing jewelry.
At one side I admire her and then another is like she did it for her family how many times did she send money to your kids who has her kids does she even get to see them all that free time she had and present that she did you write just wondering I still admire that cunning lady she was one of the best
😅Technology had changed (fax machines) and she dmn near 70 years old still trying to operate using the same method she used 50 years prior. Obviously did not realize when she needed to retire. I’m very disappointed at Louise for doing this last job. Also what worked for her for so long is the ignorance of law enforcement. College graduates with very limited street smarts. They finally used the copy/fax machine and the current detective put wanted posters of Louise in jewelry stores across the country . 😂😂
Seems like it would’ve been a really good story. If she didn’t pull the race card to give an excuse to be a thief 🙄 Sigh….Such a shame because it sounds like it could’ve been a really good documentary
People praising..."fair" or not that's not a life to live...in an out of jail, going from store to store etc. I think at this point it's not even for the money, she might be addicted already.
Thief and also heard she never stopped after this documentary got caught later in 2017 I mean she did it all her life so she doesn't know other way plus they have adrenaline doing this like a drug you can't stop
Uhhhh does anybody agree that this lady was the worst thief? She got caught every single time she stole something and I guarantee that the years she lost off her life she could have made that same amount of money legitimately. It is ironic that her career of thievery started off with a watch and now all she has is time.
Her technique of stealing the items may not have been sophisticated, but Louise had some serious BDE to be a black girl raised poor in the US and manage to integrate into high society in foreign countries. Did she even speak French when she convinced a random guy to drive her to Belgium?
She probably spoke a few words with confidence and poise.
Yeah you're not getting any sympathy over your blood diamonds...I wish she would have stolen more and never got caught.
Salute granny. Thief stole from thieves who stole from Africa
That little old lady is no threat to humans just expensive jewels.
After this documentary she continued with the taking of jewelry. Last thing presented was in 2017. Got caught almost every time, continued to get out after just a couple months because of jail overcrowding etc.
Lies
I had never heard of bail being set prior to capture. I am really enjoying this series and channel.
The last remark by the narrator was the best, "She could even be released earlier ON GOOD BEHAVIOR."
hahahaahaha
I thought the same, "released on good behaviour she has failed to show all her life"
This story reminds me of the movie based on a true story "Catch Me if You Can." Maybe that is why people kind of like her even though she is a criminal. They need to use this lady and her "know how" to train jewelry store owners and employees how "not to get robbed."
Exactly. A good way to rehabilitate thieves, hire them to teach people what to watch out for.
Catch Me if You Can was fraud and money laundering not jewelry robbing
@@t2t249 Yes, besides Carmen sandiego used all sorts of gadgets and she taunted the authorities. I think a closer comparison is this woman is her stealthy opposite.
@@t2t249 Indeed. It was mostly forgery.
What an interesting case. It's very rare to have a woman and working alone, to get away with so much crime.
She was good, but she should have never given up her secrets. She had to survive and she did, yet she went to prison did her time. Now she will live quietly somewhere and she will be okay. She survived and knew how to play the game and did it with such class.
Not even close. She's 90 years old and still stealing (most recent arrest was 2017). She chose her path; that's all there is to say.
Why are you mistaking being soft-spoken with having class? She's literally from rural West Virginia and has now been stealing for 8 decades. She is the antithesis of class.
She was arrested in 2017 for stealing $86 in goods from a Walmart. Wow.
I love 💕 her can't believe she stole jewelry she looks so innocent 🇹🇹
I LOVE THIS WOMAN!! 😍😍😍😍
It’s naughty, but she fascinates me
I too love this woman. It made me happy to see her smile and laugh while telling her story. She seems like a sweet lady who just liked a bit of thrill in her life. She never hurt or scared anybody so YOU GO GIRL lol.
She will forever have my full support
She just turned 90 years old. Was back in jail again as of mid 2017.
What? At 90? This is her career for sure
@@suahcoco9685 u don't say.
I wonder who is taking care of her kids while she was fulfilling her life of crime and prison
Exactly what I was thinking. It seems her “charm” has blinded many to the fact that she’s just another irresponsible parent.
I don’t think she got any kids
Right she went from unemployed single mother to traveling to Europe and getting arrested.
Where did it say she had kids?
@@ravpol14403:49 she had a “family to support” I’m assuming she had kids since they spoke of her husband and didn’t say “she had a husband to support” it’s called common sense or drawing a reasonable inference.
"Now that she had the right look..."
Looks like a school drama costume on a 14yo 🙄😅
She seems so proud of what she did
My favorite episode so far
Awe let that lovely lady keep the bling,, she stole it fair and square 😄
🤣😂🤣
Lol good for her 🙏
Who is is secretly rooting for her?👀
🎶🎶 Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego🎶🎶🎶🎶 my favorite cartoon back in the early 90's.
That was a fun video game as well!!
Lol i know its wrong but DAMN i was routing for her. To bring oneself out of poverty as a young black girl in rural west virginia, takes a special kind of chutzpah lol i dont condone her actions but damn, those skills of survivals are something else lol
This is a thief. Not to be emulated or placed on a pedestal. The icing on the cake is she somehow blamed racism for her life of petty crimes…
I really like when they get interviews with the thieves. She was very unique in that she was a solo female thief and is still stealing as of 2017.
She was arrested again on July 2005 in Las Vegas at the age of 76.
And was also arrested at the age of 83 in Los Angeles
She was also arrested again in 2017 for stealing
I love this woman...come to Canada Loiuse😊
Yes she'd even rob your jewels great idea.
@@balance3201 yep ....would teach the rich to help feed kids with no food!!!!...u know kids that u DYIING...and u r worried about jewels...get a life
WTF ??? Why not as if we do not have enough criminals , we need to import more .
@@Jay-vr9ir Joseph read what I said above...lol
They should make a movie about her. It takes a thief
Actually I have respect for her survival plan. She step up and perfected her game. Not everybody is born into a world of opportunity. Great video.
No you do not steal from other people.
Monaco UK London are all cheap places.
When she escaped she suddenly had new clothes?
Passports do not cost anything?
I can name some more.
Dont call the racist card because she dint have a problem in europe.
😁Well you got 3 like's in a month.
🥰🥰🥰 she is a pillar!!!
she seems more like Catwoman than Carmen Sandiego
The lady of the blings, coming to a theater near you😅😅😅
Hopefully, this video will teach talented non-viloent criminals that there is a good time to stop and to capitalize on the fame and to write an autobiography, perhaps.
Otherwise, a criminal profession is not like a trade and you can do it as long as your health allows you to.
Okay, how did she afford going to Europe if I thought she was struggling at first?
Probably stole something
Right.
Back and forth. Back and forth. How’s she buy her clothes.
This part is missing. From being broke in Virginia to Geneva via Monte Carlo?
This lady is fabulously hilarious, 😂😂the old lady scam works every time😅😅
Human nature is predictable, if you bother to pay attention like the queen 😂❤❤l
good for her : ] she lived!
She lived life as a criminal.
You can come live with me while you get your law degree, granny. It's not too late. You can entertain me with stories about ripping off jewelry stores in your 70s.
Man that saleswoman was a legit Karen 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
The lady cop is a Karen too
What’s a Karen?
Guys! Literally! Look her up! She’s still stealing she even stole after this documentary was made 🤣🤣🤣
😅😅
I looked her up, “Queen of Jewels” and got a bunch of Queen Elizabeth videos! 🤣🤣
I would not have the heart to lock her up. She's a sweetheart.
Amazing
Stealing a ring don't make you brilliant.
Good for her. With all the evil corporations stealing resources out of Africa, glad to see a bit of pay back.
good for her she robbed from the rich and not the poor
Stealing is never a good thing. How would you feel if someone stole from you? Not good, I bet. Remember you are rich compared to others.
What a handsome shop clerk 😍
She's my hero
Louise? Lol. That"s. Doris payne, 😄😄😄😄
Interesting,
Best
Good woman Diomand
Ok She got away Let her be
I love this episode 😂 imagine and age lady have these guys on their heels 😂😂🇹🇹
Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹😂😂😂😂
How many years in total. Sounds very light. 4 or 5 years. How to understand the law. Good for her then
U go sista!
Granny ain't easy 😂😂😂❤
The staff are to blame.
Try doing that to me?
Not a chance in hell.
I remember lifting a ring from a store in downtown Detroit surprised at how easy it was. I eventually learned my lesson since sitting in jail wasn't worth it.
Any books
19:45 you put monies in the refrigerator ?! 😑😐 not hidden.
If a person has stolen jewellery you do not hand clippers. Also they would not walk away and leave you with a tray of jewellery these days
Good move... 😁😁
I would not have the nerve or confidence. Harder these days
actress looks like tyler, the creator in a wig 😂
i love her came from 0 and became my hero hahahaha
Seems a lot of people in comments like lowlife thieves.
I thought that her name was Doris Payne.
How much did she have in the bank.
It's despicable the story that she clearly crafted to excuse her petty theft in WV. What's wrong with simply admitting you were always a thief? Why do you have to give a reason for why you became a thief? The documentary states that she "had to steal her way out", as if they allowed her to write the episode for her.
Does anyone know if she has been released?
She was present at one of the recent local riots.
@@bigboner23 lol what a liar. I saw her at a trump rally.
@@StowGeneral both can steal their way out together
How she got to monte carlo without any means 🤔🤔🤔🤔
I’m assuming she was sending money back home to support the family she said she had to steal to support. Even while locked up in prison😂😂
I respect her
She more like robin hood
The female version....
And I bet she was fine in her day
slab fork, WV , thats where bill withers was from too
Here 🤞🏽🤞🏽😍
Her real name is not Louise Davis and she's out of prison.
Criminals are the same irrespective of age or gender, she blames the jewelry salesman for the mix treatment ( good /bad) when she was a young girl that's why she decided to be stealing jewelry.
What happened to her kids?
Her real name is Doris Payne .. got caught again in 2017
half this story is not believable, she’s broke no job yet finds a way to monte carlo ??? smh yea ok
She was the true lord of the rings aka Nana 😅. Who ever snitched on Nana sucks.
At one side I admire her and then another is like she did it for her family how many times did she send money to your kids who has her kids does she even get to see them all that free time she had and present that she did you write just wondering I still admire that cunning lady she was one of the best
She was good at getting busted too.
Kids do grow...
cant believe this was filmed 20 years ago
Bro the women is still stealing to this day, she stole even after this documentary was made 🤣
At the Mayfair hotel what a joke and the case manager are worse passive aggressive and intimidation with street rats
She didn't have a exit plan can't steal forever
😅Technology had changed (fax machines) and she dmn near 70 years old still trying to operate using the same method she used 50 years prior. Obviously did not realize when she needed to retire. I’m very disappointed at Louise for doing this last job.
Also what worked for her for so long is the ignorance of law enforcement. College graduates with very limited street smarts. They finally used the copy/fax machine and the current detective put wanted posters of Louise in jewelry stores across the country . 😂😂
This lady’s story is exactly the same as Doris Payne’s.
Because she is Doris Payne…
@@bandinstudios I realized it later.
Seems like it would’ve been a really good story. If she didn’t pull the race card to give an excuse to be a thief 🙄 Sigh….Such a shame because it sounds like it could’ve been a really good documentary
How did she get enough money to go to Europe and dress the part?
People praising..."fair" or not that's not a life to live...in an out of jail, going from store to store etc. I think at this point it's not even for the money, she might be addicted already.
Should of returned it
Thief and also heard she never stopped after this documentary got caught later in 2017 I mean she did it all her life so she doesn't know other way plus they have adrenaline doing this like a drug you can't stop
oh wonder
What a lovely burglar…free her
She should've lay low
She’s sitting up there laughing while telling the story and all her damn hair is white as a sheet
Uhhhh does anybody agree that this lady was the worst thief? She got caught every single time she stole something and I guarantee that the years she lost off her life she could have made that same amount of money legitimately. It is ironic that her career of thievery started off with a watch and now all she has is time.
@V J was she a what?
She never stole that watch, according to her account.
Gilf from sin come to she mind.
But for long hahahhahaha lmaooo
Bonnet Bandit, lol
she never said what she always do with the money.
