"Discounted Theft: Thieves Seek Lesser Charges for Stolen Sale Goods"

Attorneys for two men accused of stealing items from a Kohl's department store in Colorado argued for lesser charges during the trial, claiming that some of the stolen items, including KitchenAid appliances, were on sale. The defendants, known as the "KitchenAid Mixer Crew," were convicted of felony theft and sentenced to prison and probation. The District Attorney emphasized that theft is not a victimless crime and highlighted the impact of rising retail theft on businesses and customers.
