Re: Pay us or we’ll call the cops: Many U.S. stores giving shoplifters choice of puni
This is completely unacceptable. Coercion is a much worse crime than petty shoplifting. It really pisses me off that powerful entities get away with the kind of criminal behavior in public view. The 320 dollars they extort is likely to be a lot more than the shoplifter was taking in the first place. Seems like Harvard Business School is churning out more thieves than San Quentin these days.
