    I’m 99% sure we’re gonna start seeing an uptick in employees “accidentally” obscuring and/or destroying these body cams

      The cameras aren’t on at all times. Employees are supposed to turn on the cameras to record abusive behavior by scumbags because the company found that people who were stealing were also abusive towards staff in 1 in 4 incidents. It’s so employees have a record of the interaction. This also means when the thieving piece of shit makes fake complaints its even easier to ignore because the employee has proof.

        Having said all that, if you see someone stealing food, no you didn’t.

          Most people are able to get assistance with food which is why most people don’t actually steal food they steal stuff to sell to buy drugs.

          If you’re gonna steal food, go steal from walmart or some big retailer that can handle the losses. The little stores like this don’t deserve the theft.
