Night before last, I was flagged down in WalMart's parking lot by one of their loss prevention people. It seems that 2 'ladies'(2 sisters) had been caught concealing various items inside their purses and had attempted to leave the premisis w/o paying for said items.
I notified dispatch of the situation and went back to the break area(where the 2 'ladies' were being detained. Upon seeing me, the 2 'ladies' went into 'sob story' mode.
These 2 individuals had recently gotten off a 1-year WalMart-imposed 'no trespass' for shoplifting in a different WalMart. They were informed that they were now permanently banned from WalMart. Imagine being 'banned' from WalMart...for LIFE.
The older of the 2 had been saying that she 'wasn't a 'bad' person, that she went to church, etc'. It was at that point that I said 'So did Judas, lady'....
Maybe not professional, but.....at 3AM, I didn't really care.
BTW....did I mention one of these 'ladies' had her 6 year old daughter with her.....at 3AM in the freaking morning...to SHOPLIFT!!! What kind of 'mother' does that???
