Last year I was called for jury duty on a guy who came home and found his wife doing this other guy in their bed. It sounded like the wife had done this on purpose. The guy was on trial for hitting his wife and as the details began to unfold, it was clear in my mind that he was getting a pass from me. So yeah, if you're wife is doing some guy in your bed and you lose it and hit her, you get a free pass if I'm on your jury. It's like the Texas law of "He needed shootin'." The same is true for when you lose your cool and beat a shoplifter with a blunt object.
I was talking with a friend today at the counter about the new camera system going in soon when this punk kid goes behind the nearby shelves and starts to act peculiar. This is an area that has had a problem with "pilferage" in the past, a term used to describe when product is taken to a lesser observed location and stolen, often by dumping the packaging. I started paying lots of attention to the kid and when I finally moved over to confront him, he had managed to dump three unrelated items on the nearby shelves. Unbelievable.
