Thieves Seek Lesser Charges for Stealing Sale Items

Two Colorado men convicted of felony theft for stealing over $2,000 worth of goods from a Kohl's department store tried to negotiate a lesser charge because some of the items they stole were on sale. The men, dubbed the "KitchenAid Mixer Crew," were caught on surveillance footage and initially pleaded not guilty. However, their defense attorneys argued that the stolen items being on sale should result in a misdemeanor charge. Ultimately, a jury convicted them of felony theft, and one man was sentenced to 15 months in prison while the other received 90 days in jail and 18 months of probation. Retail theft has been on the rise, with total losses reaching $112.1 billion in 2022.
