Theft is a costly headache for retailers large and small. Every year, millions and millions of dollars worth of items are pilfered from shelves and trucks across the country. To minimize losses, businesses are always looking for new ways to combat theft. Major international retailer Target may have hit upon one that has a criminal defense attorney issuing a dire warning.
According to California-based public defender Vee (@legallyveee), Target doesn’t simply nab you the moment they suspect shoplifting. She says that instead, it lets the alleged thief continue swiping items—up to a point.
