Another thought I had... Not that i am trying to defend my wrong...
But is the LPO not suppose to approach you/detain you until you have passed the point of purchase- which gives the ground to say you never intended to pay for the product..? Everywhere I have been reading, this seems to be...
I realize that now.... That my head is clear and this whole thing made me lose sleep.
Although, opening a package could be grounds for charges on theft.. Yes?
After having the day to think and calm down... I've read some info....considering the LPO 'suspected' me of theft, did not detain me nor did he retrieve product from my person... Unless he directly saw the brush in my hand, go into my bag... He cannot prove even with camera that it went in...
Thank you- i will take a look at it.
This situation has caused me much personal upset, i regret doing it and wish i could take it back...

Thank you for the advice...might i ask the reason of your previous post?
I read another post similar to mine- someone said that store/police
could obtain info from a debit card?
Nno-didnt run.
I bought other stuff-he approched me with he packaging and said dont forget the rest of it for thw brush that is in you bag.
I panicked and said i didnt have a brush. The cashier informed me the guy was LPO, that there are cameras in the store she said she wasnt acussing me...
I recently shoplifted a little brush....it was stupid, i dont know why i did it and ifeel terrible.
I was approached by the LPO, but i was not dettained, cops were not icalled and i left the store.
I wanted to go back and admit what i had done...but i was scared. Now what? Will the...
