Please do some research and educate yourself before you make bogus claims.
First, if the store does not want to prosecute law enforcement can do nothing. It cost the stores money to send a rep to court in these cases. If they get their product back they will trespass the person from the property. The person gets “a piece of paper” as well as the store.
Second, if the store wants to prosecute, the crime is a misdemeanor. If she has no open warrants, Police will issue a Notice to Appear, a court date for her to show up, “a piece of paper.” This allows police to not be tired up processing a minor arrest and frees them quicker to be available to respond to another emergency.
So unless you spoke with the store manager or the police your accusations are unfounded. You are also free to request a copy of all the paperwork on the call through the sunshine law.
