Theft with no Consequences: According to an article by CWBChicago, Chicago, specifically Logan Square, has been experiencing a series of robberies and retailers in neighboring communities are on alert.  While retail thefts are common in this area, this species is different. The armed suspect had shoplifted at the same Walgreens location three separate times over the course of three weeks sometimes threatening employees.  Along with this, organized shoplifting across the Cook County is also rising. Groups of 5-7 men will go to stores such as DSW or Ulta Beauty with large duffle bags and organize group shoplifting.  The haul thieves escape with from one of these incidences can exceed $8,000.  The increased thefts are due to Cook County State's Attorney Kim Foxx's decision not to prosecute thefts valued at under $1,000 as felonies.  State law allows felony prosecution of thefts valued at $300 or more.  Reducing the consequences for retail theft has encouraged shoplifters, who now understand that they can get away with it. Studies show that since Foxx was elected, shoplifting has increased by 20%. Chicago police and Cook County Mayors and supervisors are demanding change.
