WalMart's sure do attract shoplifters like flies to feces, don't they? I had to serve papers on a Judge the other day just as he was slamming his gavel down on a welfare feril animal for shoplifting at the local WalMart. "And don't go into any WalMarts in Solano County anymore"

Remember Brig Gen. Janice Kaprinski, the commander of the Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq? She got caught shoplifting at the BX at McDill AFB in Tampa and Bush demoted her!

I thought she got demoted for something else, ie prison care. Not stealing from some BX.

The punishment of a loss of a career is enough a punishment. I could be wrong, but I don’t think that a sargeant would have lost their career over this crime. They might have lost a rank or done many hours of kp or something, so it would have been more reasonable for a harsher punishment to be visited on an enlisted rank.

However, I will never understand the psyche of somebody of such standing to do something so stupid.

Something is EXTREMELY odd here?

An ink cartridge and STP Oil? What???

I don’t know what it is, but there is something much deeper here. I’ don’t know, but it does not add up.

Very sad. I can’t count how many officers I’ve seen self-destruct over stupid stuff...like having an “extra beer” before they drive home.

People who do this compulsively are the ones who steal trivial items like a bottle of STP. When I was in high school I worked part time for a stereo store. We caught a shop lifter once who had stolen a few blank tapes. He had two hundred dollars and four credit cards in his wallet, but he went to jail for stealing items worth less than twenty dollars.

Mental breakdown of some kind, maybe drug-induced. If there’s not a psych/medical eval on top of this, someone isn’t doing their job.

It is possible that competent people who have devoted life to established order now in discord shall abandon compliance to such order on every level.

This is just starting.

Back in 1991, I remember the Frankfurt MP commander, also a Colonel, having been caught shoplifting a leather jacket from the PX.

I think maybe the pressures of command trigger something in some people, because I can’t fathom why anybody would take such risks for something so trivial.

Military officers are and should be held to a higher standard. I just wish those same standards were applied to politicians.

Something is sickening about this thread, but not sure what. Maybe it’s the sensationalism and allcaps. Don’t know. That a man threw away a career over nothing is bad enough, but it’s something else that’s bothering me here. Why is the blogger treating it like he committed mass murder?
