Usually withdrawal slips are not used for such high amounts. You request to speak to the bank manager about the account and go to a private office.

My husband was mistakenly detained (not arrested) for bank robbery in 2011 right here in MoCo. Our vehicle matched the getaway vehicle, including out of state license plates. Both the suspect and my spouse were Latinos.

It was a huge ordeal until it was straightened out.

What relevance does this have to the situation being discussed?

Yes a Black pregnant Bank Teller. She fu&ked up. Apparently, she was processing the transaction and some sort of alert popped up on her screen because of the amount. So instead of calling her supervisor over to deal with the alert, she told her supervisor he was robbing the bank. The cops investigated and said she was at fault.

Eh… yeah… but he also handed a note, like a bank robber.

He handed the teller a withdrawal slip and wrote on the back of it I would like to withdraw $12,000 cash from my checking account. Please do the money count somewhere else. I’d like to be discreet. This is not what a bank robber does.

I'm really having trouble understanding what the teller was even thinking. Was it that teller that called the cops? Or a different teller that saw a note being passed to a fellow teller and then concluded that note=robbery? If it was the teller that read the note that called the cops, it sounds like she's just a total idiot. If it was a neighbor teller that called, it sounds like conscious or unconscious bias -- that the mere fact of a note being passed probably would not have caused an alert if it was a white or asian customer.

I also used to pass notes to tellers years ago when I did banking for an elderly relative. She would type out detailed instructions about what bills she wanted from her account (e.g., 15 ones, 3 fives, 2 tens, 2 rolls of quarters), and I would typically just pass it to them rather than try to explain it to them.

They profiled him. And they did it in a city with an extremely wealthy black clientele. Idiots.

In a state the criminalizes it. Whatever cops put cuffs on him can kiss their jobs goodbye too.

I certainly hope so, but you know odds are they're going to get away with it.

So much for the discreet part

Isn't the woman who alerted someone to this, a black bank teller? I think that's what TMZ said. If so, this is not a karen situation.

That is wildly racist.

As a petite well-dressed Asian woman, I'm sure I would not be arrested for handing such a note to the teller.

His actions were suspicious.

How so?

Banking while Black.

A similar incident happened with a black female physician as well. JP Morgan Chase refused to cash a VALID check for a physician because it was $16,000 and obviously 'fraudulent'. Such bias.

Why not? He's in the entertainment business.

The man is the Director for one of the largest grossing films in Marvel history. It absolutely deserves to be in entertainment.
