> I've always wondered how they are able to get convictions from a theft months ago with no evidence that you actually possessed the item after you left the store?
If you steal a car and dump it in the sea, but there's camera footage of you stealing the car, is the camera footage not enough evidence even if they don't find the car?
You aren't leaving a dealership with a car stuffed in your pocket.
Target has footage that shows somebody who looks like you appear to put something in their pocket, then walk around the store for 30 minutes and leave without buying anything. Their inventory system shows that they have fewer widgets on the shelf than they should have. They say they have records of you doing this 3 times over the past year. Do you try to make a deal or take your chances in court?
