Maybe she should have stayed her *ss at home, then, instead of stealing.
Recently in NYC the cops arrested a bunch of people and put the recovered merchandise on display, sort of like they do for caches of drugs or guns that they confiscate.

But it backfired on them, because it was all diapers and wet wipes and other childcare supplies. One of those arrested was living in a homeless shelter with her children after being evicted by her landlord.

I don't know about these particular people, but the rise in shoplifting just MIGHT overall have something to do with the rise in homelessness and increasing rents, coupled with our two-part justice system that enforces the law one way for the affluent, and another way for everyone else.

Since this is an eight year old thread, could you please follow up on the store manager and see how he is doing.

Well, honestly he screwed up big time. That coworker should have tried to drag him away from this. Let the cops deal with them, for all we know, they could have been armed and insane.

I do agree people shouldn't steal, but in this day and age, don't try and be a hero to your company, because they don't care about you, only profits.

I worked 7-11 in Colorado in 1980, manager told me "I don't care if they have a gun, knife or metal rod, you do NOT stop them. We have insurance and cops"
