Will he get busted for shoplifting?

Question

My brother just came home and admitted to stealing some stuff from the Walmart today. He took two printer cartridges (about $22 each) then some really small stuff like lunch meat and candy bars.

Obviously he made it out of the store fine with his items. I'm just wondering if we will get a call in a few weeks saying there's a warrant for his arrest since they reviewed the tapes for that day or something. He goes up there A TON so if they saw him on the tape taking the stuff they would be able to know who it was.

Answer 1

There is always a chance.

They do not review every tape as a matter of policy, but if something else happened at the same time, and the see the violation, they can file a report.
