Cash Sales Then Occurred

I stole tools from parked vans and sold them at flea markets. The harm affected self-employed workers who depended on their equipment. I concealed the origin by removing identifying marks and selling through intermediaries. Transactions were cash-based and unrecorded. I benefited through steady income over time. Complaints focused on van security rather than resale channels. Market trading continued without scrutiny. When enforcement activity increased elsewhere, I moved on and stopped. The victims replaced tools at personal cost and no recovery was made.
