Some folks will do anything for clout... even if it means committing a plethora of felonies and damages in the process. In the case of one TikToker, one reckless prank has landed him a hefty sentence behind bars.

He goes by Wolfie Kahletti on TikTok, but according to jail records, the 27-year-old's real name is Charles Smith. Over the years, he's gained a following conducting harmless pranks in public. But he took things to an unbelievable level last year when he walked into an Arizona Walmart and began spraying bananas, yams, lemons, rotisserie chicken and other foods with a can of bed bug killer spray.
Smith left the store but claimed he returned minutes later trying to remove all of the items he poisoned. Smith reportedly placed the contaminated items in a shopping cart and moved them to the back of the store, according to AZ Central. Walmart later removed the remaining items worth almost $1,000, but as we previously reported, Smith still posted the video and it went viral.
The 27-year-old told The Republic the food was "thrown away right after" and "no one was poisoned." But court documents noted, "The time between when the defendant sprayed the items to when he placed them into the cart left plenty of time for customers to take the contaminated items and purchase them."
The video caught the attention of the Tempe Police Department, who launched a formal investigation. Smith turned himself over to authorities back in December and was soon charged with introducing poison, criminal damage, endangerment and theft. CBS 5 News reported an additional third-degree burglary charge was added in a separate case.
He pleaded guilty in April, according to AZ Central, and now, Smith's officially been sentenced. On June 24, a judge ordered him to serve one year in prison with credit for 136 days served, according to documents. In addition, he received three years probation for criminal damage and solicitation to commit burglary running concurrently.
In a press release, Ariz. police said, "This incident underscores the potential dangers of reckless actions disguised as social media pranks." The department also warned folks to not follow in Smith's footsteps.
