No names have been released yet, but according to news reports, a loss prevention agent for the Macy’s in the Dayton Mall in Dayton, OH, was arrested for intentionally looking away while 4 shoplifters carried off $10,000.00 in merchandise!
One of the alleged shoplifters was the sister of the loss prevention agent. The 24 year old LP agent had been working for Macy’s since February, and his manager suspected something was going on, so a surveillance was conducted on the LP agent by the manager.
The 5 suspects arrested on Tuesday are expected to be charged with felonies in connection with the thefts. Police also suspect that this was not the first time the group stole merchandise from the store. It is unclear what the group intended to do with the stolen merchandise at this time.
How about this? Is this a sign of the economic times, too? In an unrelated case in Raceland, KY recently, an off-duty police officer was arrested and charged with shoplifting. He later resigned from the police department.
This begs the question, “Who can we trust?” I would respond by quoting my boss, “In God we trust, everybody else, we interview”.
