    I was working at Walmart as the asset protection a few years back when we escorted someone back to our office after a misunderstanding when the self checkout failed
    The lady was so very polite and went right back to pay for the missed items
    2 days later I was fired for not pressing criminal charges and involving law enforcement.
    Mind you this was a single mother with 2 kids. Walmart will forever be a disgusting stain on retail.

      That is exactly what happened to me! The cop didn't even want to arrest me but she didn't have a choice because they were so adamant about pressing charges over about $40 worth of food although the surveillance video clearly showed me scan every single item and the scanner messing up without me noticing. Smh so wrong that they are able to do this to people

      Right, Americans aren't capable of doing these type tasks and one state knows it already and prevents self service gas stations. Laws should say all product exchanges in stores, gas stations, EV recharging as a payment card has to be used, purchase of tickets etc. should all be required to go thru properly trained cashiers that do whatever activities necessary, This will also reduce people on welfare due to the large number of people necessary and the great increase in employment will add lots of taxes to the governments while reducing welfare costs.

      Its interesting that they withheld the video that would have proved her innocence, because this is something that government prosecutors do, and they get away with it. They withhold
      exculpatory evidence routinely, so that they can railroad people through the legal system and they do this because they have prosecutorial immunity. That needs to change. They can and have ruined many people’s lives with no repercussions, even after the person was found to be innocent. Sounds to me like Walmart is reading from the same playbook.

      The only time they would need to show the video is at a court hearing. She wasn't accused of stealing 1 or 2 things. She stole several items to include Christmas lights. She won the lottery when Walmarts rep didn't show up to court. For all we know the rep may have hated his job and decided not to show.
      The accused did what any sane person would do and asked that the charges to be dropped. The court figured the Walmart rep didn't care enough to show so their isn't a case therefore ruled "not guilty" by default.
      She had a legal rep that saw this as an opportunity to sue the crap out of Walmart. She was more than likely guilty of stealing being it was multiple items but ends up with a massive payday due to Walmart legal rep that happened to not show that particular day.

And if I shop at Walmart again I will be arrested. I have it all recorded and was with my children and grandchild.

      Ephesians 2:8-9

I would not cite or arrest until I saw the video of the person shop lifting. If I didn’t see a person shop lift. I would tell the loss prevention person that they could get the person’s information and go to the courthouse and take out a criminal summons (NOT A WARRANT) but a criminal summons for the person they are accusing. I never arrested just on hearsay. Again! Walmart thinks they are above the law because they are so big. Thank GOD the jury saw the truth and awarded this woman what she got.

    My fix is to not shop at Wal-Mart. I watched a new Walmart practically destroy my old small hometowns businesses so fast it seemed planned. Nearly every single small business in the city closed down if they had to compete with Walmart, they went out of business in a year, two years tops. Walmart is not good for cities and towns. Their lure of jobs is a false lure often having devastating impacts on the existing small businesses. Force everyone nearby to work at Wal-Mart due to it being the only job in town at slave wages with garbage benefits. Its been proven over and over again that many of Wal-Marts full time employees still qualify for government assistance. This amounts to the American taxpayer co funding Walmart to underpay its employees at the taxpayers expense. I hate Wal-Mart and seeing videos of them now targeting people for using their garbage self checkout systems is right on queue for this garbage company.

    I was accused of stealing at Walmart when I was 15. My brother just got his first pay check and wanted to get me something nice. I picked a beautiful white dress. He also insisted on stockings and shoes as well. They took us into the back room, dumped out my purse on the floor and then took our items out of the bags and threw them on the floor as well. When I said, “Aw my pretty little dress 😢” the guy said, “huh? This shitty little dress?” Then stepped on it and told me I could pick it up and that he’d wait. Obviously he didn’t find anything. Even after practically making my brother strip down! Then told us to leave and not come back. They sent me a letter to pay $300 or they press criminal charges. I was young and scared so I begged my grandma to help me pay it. Walmart is and will always be trash 🗑

      Don't blame the store for that. I can assure you that no associate is supposed to accuse a person of stealing anything. You need to be an AP person or a manager, all associates can do is watch a person and offer to assist them. You need to have witnesses, and you need to watch a person take the merchandise and pass through the last point of sale without paying for it. That associate was absolutely in violation of company policy, and for exactly this reason.

      Ephesians 2:8-9
      For it is by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of GOD, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.

They do not want any liability for anything, even if they did do something wrong. They couldn’t care less. When there is a lawsuit, they will just put the blame on somebody else.

    You really need to pay attention at the Walmart self check. I was using it and everything seemed like it was working normally. Scan an item, it shows up on the screen and does the usual beep. Packed up my bag and grabbed my receipt. I decided to check it and it showed only about half the items that I had rang up. Good thing I checked. When I called over the person monitoring the self check, they just said "oh yeah, it does that sometimes". WTF!

      Does that sometimes?! Looks like they want f peoples lives up with that one. I bet you didn’t get that recorded. You’d have an easy case with that one, since it is a known issue.

      That sounds shady, it's as if the machines are designed to do that to entrap people, accuse them of shoplifting then blackmail $200 from them which most people pay.
      I use the self checkout at my local grocery all the time and it's never done that.

      I think WM should go back over EACH case they had where people did pay their fee, PROVE they were guilty without a shadow of a doubt and if they cannot, refund their "fine" at 10 times their loss to make them whole again.
      If they do have proof, however, then whatever judgement the courts found against the person should obviously stand unless they requested a retrial and then prove their innocence.

    Walmart accused me of stealing a spool of thread that slipped through the the cart and called the cops on me. The Walmart employees were very rude to me and belittled me over spool of thread. They wanted me to pay $600 for restitution. I hired a lawyer that helped me with this accusation but Walmart was relentless and thank goodness no one from the store showed up at court. The judged ruled in my favor. $600 for a $2 spool of thread. I don't shop at any Walmart because of this. It was wrong for them to treat me like that even though it was accidental and I didn't notice the thread had fell through the shopping cart. They will treat a person really bad if they suspect shoplifting. $600 for a $2 spool of thread. Way to go Wally world I hope you feel bigger and better for treating a customer so unfairly over a spool of thread. Shame on you WM

      I'm glad the court ruled in your favor, but did Wal-Mart have to pay court costs and your legal fees? Often they dont, and that wouldn't cover loss of reputation, loss of worktime, false arrest or anything else. These bastards need to be nailed to the wall.
