The reason Carter was thrown out was due to an alleged shoplifting incident, but her family maintains that the employees’ response was extreme and potentially harmful. They also expressed concerns about how retailers interact with individuals with mental illnesses during suspected shoplifting cases.

There are other ways to go about it,” Faith Carter said. “This could have really escalated. She could have passed out. She could have had a heart attack.” Family members are working to locate Carter now to check on her health and well-being. They’ve also visited the store to demand answers from employees about the force they used to boot Carter from the store. “I need Family Dollar to reach out to me. I don’t need to reach out to Family Dollar,” Carter’s mother, Mildred Thomas, stated. Family Dollar has yet to release a public statement on the matter. Thomas said the family might take legal action. Police launched an investigation and stated they have one person in custody, but have not identified whether that individual is the alleged shoplifter. People who viewed the video online expressed similar concerns as Carter’s family. “The lady is mentally ill and how they handled it was so wrong,” one Facebook user wrote. “Employees cannot handle people that way. If they truly felt she was breaking the law or something they should call the police. She/her family should absolutely sue them,” an Instagram user commented. ‘Gets Worse and Worse’: Family Dollar Workers Yank Mentally Ill Woman By Her Coat, Drag Her Across Floor in Viral Video, Sparking Calls for Lawsuit ...read more read less
