The fuck? I read the article and still don’t understand what this is.
Did the people they’re being accused of following call the police or did police follow customers from the bank and then pull over people they thought “looked suspicious?”
But who made the call that the person was being followed? A lot of these sound like vague charges made up after the fact.
They were all arrested on Sept 5th after the law took effect on the 1st
Jacobs allegedly followed a Wells Fargo customer while carrying items including multiple sets of license plates, gloves, a screwdriver, and spare clothes.
Washington is accused of targeting another Wells Fargo customer while in possession of an alternate Texas license plate and a broken vehicle key.
Williams is accused of following a Wells Fargo customer while carrying at least two criminal instruments, including a surgical black mask and an alternate Texas license plate.
Thornton allegedly followed a Wells Fargo customer while carrying a license plate flipper and an adhered strip of duct tape over a VIN.
Odigie is accused of following a Wells Fargo customer while in possession of at least two criminal instruments, including a license plate flipper and an adhered strip of duct tape over a VIN. Court records also note prior felony convictions for Odigie, including unauthorized use of a vehicle and evading arrest.
Like it seems they knew these guys were running license plate scams, but they made up claims of “jugging” to pull over and search their cars.
Especially considering “possession of a surgical black mask” as a “criminal instrument.” I’m half way to a jugging charge myself.

Jugging - following/robbing a recent bank/ATM user in hopes they made a withdraw
So yes, following suspiciously, and apparently doing a bad job at it
