Allegations

After a store incident at checkout, loss prevention claimed the client had placed unpaid items in a bag. The client had receipts for most of the cart and explained the remaining items were unintentionally covered by clothing that was purchased. We obtained the police reports and available video, compared the allegations against the receipts, and showed the inventory appeared to include items that were already paid for. We also pointed out gaps in the surveillance and challenged proof of intent and value. The prosecution dismissed the case.
