#shoplifting #selfcheckout #bodycam A Walmart self-checkout stop turns into a trip to jail in this police bodycam footage. Officers sit with a shoplifting suspect in the store office while the case number is pulled and loss prevention prepares its paperwork. According to the officers reviewing the incident, the shopper did not pretend to scan at all and simply went straight to bagging, something one of them says he has never seen before. She offers to pay it back when she gets paid, then gets on the phone asking who will come get her from jail. An officer walks her through the bond process in Clark County, estimating about $1,000 with a bondsman taking 10 to 15 percent, before she is told she will be booked and is walked out to a patrol car. Does skipping the scanner prove intent to steal? Can an offer to pay later undo a theft allegation? What sets the bond for retail theft?
