Wal-Mart Shoplifters Hold Signs of Crime

Wal-Mart doesn’t want thieves on its property, including two convicted shoplifters ordered by a judge to stand outside with signs reading “I am a thief, I stole from Wal-Mart.”
Attalla City Judge Kenneth Robertson said Wednesday that an attorney for Wal-Mart told him the shoplifters couldn’t finish out their sentences in front of the store.
The judge had ordered them to spend two Saturday afternoons holding the signs.
Robertson said the attorney told him that the discount retail giant had safety concerns about the sign-bearing shoplifters outside the Supercenter, where they drew notice last Saturday.
