An investigation revealed that the socks Taylor had been wearing were stolen from the store, police said.
Cut him some slack, he couldn’t just walk around the store naked.

Police said officers responded to the scene and located the suspect, later identified as Verdon Lamont Taylor, inside the store wearing only a pair of socks.
They arrested him before he had a chance to steal them.

I’m thinking he’ll definitely make the “People of Walmart” website.

Ok, on further read (I forced myself) he put the socks on his feet. And was in the store. So how are they stolen?

So how are they stolen?Since he was naked, unless he had cash/credit in-hand (or elsewhere...Sorry), one could reasonably assume he was not intending to pay for the merchandise. Although it is possible he might have intended to shuck them prior to leaving, but who would expect to pay for the merchandise after he wandered around the store with them on? I'd support theft conviction if I was on a jury...

Only at a Walmart. Obviously didn't go there for the nachos. (Obscure concealed carry reference).

Why are there People of Walmart, but not People of Target? I can’t figure it out, but that’s why I shop at Target. Well, that, and the lines are shorter, and the stores are cleaner.

One doesn’t buy a pair of shoes without first trying them on so I guess you could make the same argument for socks.

Ok. That youtube link is a bit surreal; reminds me of the old Monty Python line: “and now for something completely different.”
I’m just wondering: did he come by his insanity honestly, or was it simply drug-induced?
