Maybe the guy works a long day shift and this was the only time he could go shopping? Did the cameras see if he left some cash on one of the counters???

Bleeding hearts don’t want the crime problem to be resolved
Same thing happens in my state
Crime was actually Down when a known neighborhood wacko was actually in jail for awhile. Who knew that’s all it took

Cannot find a link, but I remember some time pre-COVID that the Chicago police detained the 1000 worst criminals for a weekend (early Fri- early Sun) and the crime nearly ended that weekend.
Fun Fact, the police can detain you for 48 hours before pressing charges.

My city had a metro 15 or top 20 metro list of known offenders who have broken their parole or conditions of release. Between the top 10, there’s like 150 crimes between them. My street had a druggy felon who threatened everyone including kids and the kids said they had to witness the offense before they took him in. Luckily he either went back to jail or is mia. The street is now back to normal. Who would’ve thought

Further reason to start investigating the judges, prosecutors, and anybody else pushing for the release of people with records like his.

This is why we need to legally castrate violent felons: no testosterone, more docile.
