You might find this hard to believe, but some places in the country are actually prosecuting the organized shoplifters plaguing retailers.
For example, a pair in Parker, Colorado, known as the KitchenAid Crew just went to trial over their shoplifting spree stealing, well, you can guess.
Michael Green, 50, and Byron Bolden, 37 were both convicted for felony retail theft.
The documented value of the items stolen was $2,094.98, and a sixth-degree felony theft charge in Colorado includes a total value between $2,000 and $5,000.
Since it was just $94.98 that separated the pair from a felony and a misdemeanor, their lawyer tried to argue the charge down because the merchandise they stole could have been bought for less than the documented value on sale and with coupons for store discounts.
