Losses Were Simply Accepted

I stole from large supermarket chains repeatedly as part of an organised group. The harm affected retail workers, prices paid by customers, and store security staff blamed for shrinkage. I concealed the activity by blending into normal foot traffic and varying locations. Items were moved on quickly and not retained. I benefited financially and avoided attention because losses were treated as routine. When stores adjusted policies, staff hours were cut. The thefts were recorded as anonymous loss and never attributed. I stopped when the group dissolved, not because of enforcement.
