Скачать или смотреть Shoplifting suspects discuss new California law in back of patrol car

A Southern California police department reminded the public that Proposition 36 went into effect last week by releasing a video from earlier this month of two shoplifting suspects talking about the new law while handcuffed in the back of a patrol car.

The video showing the Dec. 4 incident was posted Sunday night on the Seal Beach Police Department’s page.

The two suspects were among three women seen on surveillance video walking into an Ulta Beauty store and then walking out with bags full of merchandise. Police indicated the suspects took $648 from the store.

The same three women were seen in another video entering a Kohl’s department store where they allegedly took around $1,000 worth of goods.

Bodycam video shows police chasing down the suspects and taking them into custody.

While in the back of a patrol car, two of the suspects are overheard talking about the new shoplifting laws.

“It’s a felony?” one of the women turns and says. The other responds with, “B—-, new laws. Stealing is a felony,” and turns away before following up with, “and this Orange County B—-. They don’t play.”

Seal Beach police added messages to the video stating “Prop 36 in full effect!” and “Don’t steal in Seal.”
