Smart St00pid Criminals

Wow! I didnt realise how long it has been since I posted last - almost a year, DAMN!! Well here is a new post.

Today was no ordinary boring day at work for me. Today I witnessed first hand how knowledgable criminals these days can be of ways to "crook" the legal system to their advantage. For those who don't know , I work in a high-end retail store.

And today we experienced something which thankfully we don't experience too often - somebody attempted to steal/shoplift from us. Amazingly (I am still convinced that we are stolen from on a regular basis) the security guard on duty was alert enough and apprehended the perpertraitors before they were able to make off with the stolen goods.

There were two criminals caught, one male and one female. As protocol states we are to keep the guilty parties in custody until the police arrive. The guilty parties are escorted to our back area by our manager and the security guard. On the way to the back area though the female shoplifter attempts to attract as much attention from onlookers as possible by means of shouting and struggling with her escorts. Her knowledge of the law in this instance both shocked and gave me the impression that she had clearly done this before.

Whilst struggling and shouting, she on several occassions threw herself at her escorts in a manner that forced them to grope her, at which she always exagerrated her reactions claiming that they were indecently assaulting her. however this act of ingenuity was quickly qwelled by her partner constantly shouting out perfanities and on some occassions actually attempting to physically harm the escorts, which obviously made no positive contribution to there claim of innocence and was duely noted for later referal to the police.

To cut a long story short; the female was arrested (as she was the one who physically took and hid the items) while the male was allowed to go free, which he did in a rather quick manner (swak for the female, lol).
