dudeFlorida man used taco seasoning packets to steal $40,000 worth of goods from Target, police say
Facing 90 years for stealing printed pieces of paper with artificial scarcity.
Our criminal justice system is beyond fucked.
His alleged thefts resulted in a loss of over $10,000 for Target, according to the attorney general’s office.
10k 90 years… Money, long-range charges.
I called the FBI once when I got ripped off for like 30 grand. They said they wouldn’t pick up the charges until 50k
But they’ll do money money laundering charges for this fool
I’ll save you the skimming. He took packs of trading cards and taco seasoning packets to the self checkout, but only paid for the seasoning packets.
Brilliant.
Keith Wallis faces up to 90 years in prison if convicted on all charges
Ninty years disgusting. Absolutely disgusting. Target should be ashamed. The legal system should be ashamed. Everyone should be ashamed.
Especially the corporations using slave labor and private prisons. Disgusting.
Uthmeier, the attorney general, noted in the release that Florida has the “number one economy” in the country because of its “commitment to law and order.”

It’s ranked higher than I expected but definitely not number one
I guess Target should invest in actual cashiers instead of self-checkout kiosks. Would have prevented this entire thing… and provided a job for someone.
You can’t steal from a business that doesn’t give its employees a fair return on their labor.
