Private Investigators Share Their Craziest Stories

honestly most of the time when the women have a gut feeling it's 90 percent of the time right guys not so much guys it's like 45 percent of the time my name is Elizabeth I'm a private investigator in Los Angeles my name is John I'm a private investigator and I've been so for about two and a half years a lot of people hire PI's people from all walks of life every race gender age I get a lot of stories out of my job people ask me if you crazy things happen to you you know just cuz your private investigator because you're in LA this is the land of insanity it's so much fun here's one of my horror stories this woman hired us to see if her husband was cheating and she calls us saying my husband's been acting different he comes home really late at night I have these weird feelings one of his female friends who we've been friends with for a long time has been acting really strange lately and oh really nice we had to go follow her husband to see if he was cheating she said okay my husband is going to this restaurant by that time we already have the description of what he looks like they send us photos they send us pictures of the car he would drive but a lot of the times when they give us a photo it's like a photo maybe from five or 15 years ago you're trying to see if this person and in person like looks like he does in the photo I get to this restaurant where she wants us to follow her husband and I see the guy and I'm like okay this is the guy this is exactly him it looks just like him he's got this goatee and he's sitting with this woman and they're really flirty well I get a seat over next to them and you know I kind of have my camera and you're being really discreet cuz you're on your phone I'm sitting there for at least 45 minutes and I'm getting so many juicy things and they're cuddling up and they're kissing and I am so excited because I just broke this case it's done the woman's gonna be still happy go to meet with the woman she's actually crying and okay I'm ready to see this finally you set the camera down there like you know your phone and okay here's the video and here's what we saw and I press play and she's crying all this when she looks at it she goes what that's not my husband I'm mortified because I just thought I had done this amazing job on this case and even the woman who he was with looked exactly like the subjects friend it was two people two couples who looked almost exact like in the same restaurant at the same time about a week later we caught him for real I got the wrong people but she was pretty impressed because she said I've never seen anyone who looks so much like my husband in my life it was my first surveillance gig ever I had to set up and stake out this house a young girl was staying at and her parents were concerned that she would be doing something you know dangerous or illegal and almost as soon as I pulled up I see the subject leaving the house on foot all of a sudden I'm on foot I'm walking and I don't know where I'm walking this subject goes first to a park known for certain transactions to take place as she sits down and just reads a book for an hour and then she gets up and she starts walking again she's walking through high-end clothing and that sort of thing and pokes her head into a couple stores and I have to you know enter these stores and maintain a distance but it's a tight little store and I'm not a guy who would walk into these stores keeping an eye on the on the subject and then she would leave so I had to pick up the tail again and follow her before I realized that a couple hours have gone by my car is eight or nine miles away I mean I barely know where I am I'm in this environment that where I stick out like a sore thumb so now I look like the weird shady guy she turns around about faces and and begins to walk what appears to be back towards the home where she was staying and I tipped my hand at one point she turned a corner I was trying to catch up with her as I hit the corner she comes walking back the other way so for a split second we're right there staring at one another but at that point I realized I can't risk having that happen again if she sees me a second time she might know something is up I hopped in a rideshare got back to the house and sure enough saw her approaching the home at the end of the day it turned out it was just a young lady who wanted to you know get out and see what the city was like for a few days so it was a happy ending to you know a scary story for the parents at least so I was on an investigation the wife hired us and said I think my husband's cheating and I was called to be kind of debate we're called bait girls to see if the guy's gonna bite and cheat on his wife he did really fast and while we were on our first date we were sitting there and we were having dinner and all the sudden he leans over to me and he's like I have something to tell you though and I was like okay any guys you may not know this but I'm really smart and I was like oh yeah obviously you're really smart you know I'm charming and all of that and he goes I know my wife I think she's hired a private investigator so I just had to keep you know really close like oh really and he goes yeah I know I think she did and I was like oh nobody does that that's crazy do people actually hire PI's these days he was like yeah yeah but I'm on to her and I was like oh okay on the third date he tells me I just feel like you're actually a PI but here's the thing I don't even care and I still want to date you I was like mortified I try to keep a straight face like um no I'm I'm not I do social media no no I never told him he had already sent me enough photos that were incriminating enough though to where you know I was just gonna walk away it was kind of funny honestly because I like catching bad guys man it's fun [Music]
