Note: A criminal charge is an accusation. The defendant is assumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.Shoplifting  – Shoplifting is the theft of goods from an open retail establishment, typically by concealing a store item on one’s person, in pockets, under clothes, or in a bag, and leaving the store without paying.

Regional Shoplifter – A regional shoplifter is defined by CrimeStoppers as a person who shoplifts as a career criminal who habitually engage in shoplifting as a form of income.  The shoplifter travels to multiple shopping centers targeting the same brand name stores using the same methods or shoplifting tactics. A regional shoplifter may travel from county to county or from state to state in the hopes that they will not be recognized or identified by law enforcement or store employees due to being an out of town visitor.

Each year CrimeStoppers release numerous videos of thieves running out of retail stores with stolen merchandise.  The majority of shoplifters steal in response to an impulse. The National Association for Shoplifting Prevention (NASP) conducted a survey which found that around 73% of shoplifting incidents are not premeditated.

As a response to the scope and severity of organized retail crime concerns across the State of Alabama, Central Alabama CrimeStoppers has joined forces with retailers and law enforcement agencies to share information regarding organized retail crime at the local and state level.

In 2019, retail businesses filed 214 felony warrants and 464 misdemeanor warrants against shoplifters.  Since 2015, 1,723 criminal charges have been filed through CART. These charges would not have been made if retail businesses were not communicating and attending our retail theft prevention meetings. These meetings are held monthly in Prattville, Montgomery, Hoover, and Leeds, Alabama. Meetings have been suspended due to COVID-19 and will start back once we feel it is safe to do so.  In the meantime members are communicating and identifying shoplifters through a social media app. For more information contact Central Alabama CrimeStoppers.
