Steven advised she had a shopping cart, which contained thirty-three items of merchandise total. He advised he observed her fail to scan and pay for six of the items with a total value of $62.15.

He advised she would then bag both items to keep the bagging …show more content…
Steven advised he stopped her and identified himself as Walmart loss prevention. Steven stated there was a Walmart record of Marisol being caught shoplifting at a Walmart store in Palm Harbor, FL in 2013. He advised during the 2013 incident, she stole similar items compared to what was stolen today. I read Marisol Miranda from an agency issued card and she verbally acknowledged she understood her rights. She agreed to speak with law enforcement and stated she had not stolen anything. Marisol claimed the previous retail theft incident in Pinellas was a misunderstanding. She claimed she had scanned all merchandise and stated if she missed items Walmart employees should have helped her while she was at the register. I advised Marisol I did not believe her and she became upset. She requested I give her a break several times and repeatedly stated she was sorry. She advised she did not steal anything and asked me to let her go and she would never do it
On Monday, December 4, 2017, I was on patrol, in full uniform, in a marked black and white Pasadena Police vehicle, Unit #17.

According to the court case on Pam Huber v. Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., I am in agreement with the fact that the “district court granted summary judgment in favor of Huber” (Morgan, p.413) and that Wal-Mart gave Pam Huber, a maintenance associated job due to her disability. In doing so, I am also in agreement with the fact that Wal-Mart did not breach the American with Disability Act of 1990 due to the fact that Wal-Mart specifically stated what was required of Pam Huber to do on the job. Due to that, I am in agreement with Wal-Mart’s decision to hire a capable candidate in replace of Pam Huber due to their policy.
“On October 21, 2012 Sergeant William Butler and Officer Samantha Brown stopped a car in the 2000 block of East Street for failure to yield the right of way to a pedestrian.

I Daniella M. Genzale was caught shoplifting from Sephora in Roosevelt Field Mall. I put two items of makeup into my pocket book and walked out of the store passing all points of purchasing.When I left the store the security made us stop and ask us to give them what items were taken and don't pretend nothing was taken because he watched us. Then we walked back into the store with the security and they took us into the back room, once we were there he showed us the video of us taking the items and calculated how much was stolen all together. We were in the room for about an hour before the police officers came and hand cuffed us. At this point I was in tears crying, I was worried my mom was calling me and she was nervous. I still don't understand
In recent news, a Utah court is pondering if the right to self defense superceeds a Walmart “de-escalation” policy, which led to the firing of six Walmart employees. (Kieler, 2014) The former Walmart employees’ behaviors appear to be within human nature to protect oneself and the organization. Why would Walmart view the former employees’ behaviors as damaging to the corporation? What are the impacts of the firings on Walmart’s remaining workforce? How do Walmart’s actions influence employer and employee relationships? The aforementioned questions come to mind when contemplating if Walmart made the right decision(s) following their employees’ actions. Although Walmart views their former employees’ actions as black or white, others within
“Reasonable cause is a defense to a civil or criminal action against … a merchant or an agent or employee of the merchant for false arrest, false or unlawful imprisonment or wrongful detention.” Ariz. Rev. Stat. Ann. § 13-1805(D) (2009). “A merchant, or a merchant's agent or employee, with reasonable cause, may detain on the premises in a reasonable manner and for a reasonable time any person who is suspected of shoplifting … for questioning or summoning a law enforcement officer.” § 13-1805(D). Reasonable cause is only the threshold requirement for invoking the privilege. Gortarez v. Smitty’s Super Valu, Inc., 680 P.2d 807, 813 (Ariz. 1984). If reasonable cause is established, then the court must determine whether the shopkeeper brought about the detainment for the proper purpose and whether the detainment was accomplished in a reasonable manner for a reasonable length of time. Each of these elements must be proved in order for the privilege to apply. Thus, Defendants will only prevail if they are able to establish that Defendant Mark Schenkly had reasonable cause to detain Mr. Flynn, that he effectuated the detainment for a proper purpose, and that he carried out Mr. Flynn’s detainment in a reasonable manner for a reasonable length of
Indiana's Shoplifting Detention Act (ISDA) provides a store owner or agent with immunity from liability to detain a suspected shoplifter when the detention (1) has probable cause, (2) lasts for a reasonable amount of time, not extending beyond two hours (3) is conducted in a reasonable manner.

On October 27, 2017 at approximately 2020 hours, I was at the Walmart located at 8701 US HWY 19 Port Richey, FL conducting a foot patrol when I was notified by Walmart loss prevention associate Steven Uliano of a retail theft that had occurred at the garden exit of the store. Steven advised a W/F had passed all points of purchase and had attempted to leave the store with a shopping cart of unpaid merchandise. Steven advised another Walmart employee; Talia Elijah Adams had stopped the W/F and requested to see a receipt because two of the speakers in the shopping cart still contained anti-theft devices that are removed when the item is paid for. I made contact with Talia in front of the garden entrance, who advised the W/F had told her she
A time when I was an eyewitness to a non-violent crime was during a shoplifting case at a store. As I was finishing up at the checkout, I saw a group of teenagers grabbing snacks to put in their bags at the self-checkout, and exiting the store without paying for the items. This is when I realized I was witnessing a shoplifting attempt. At this moment, it was important for me to get a better view of what was happening, so I could have helpful information to share with the authorities. The information I knew I needed to store in my long-term memory included details about the shoplifters' physical appearance, clothing features, the sequence of events leading up to and during the crime, and the time and location of the incident.
