So my friend got caught stealing from Woollies

She’s an idiot. Didn’t need to steal but just does it at a cheap thrill.

Anyway she purchased $40 worth of stuff and had a few chocolate bars in her pocket.

They took her photo and told her she’s banned from any Woolworths state wide for 3 years.

My question is.. not so much for her benefit more my curiosity..

Does woollies have facial recognition? What are the odds she walks into a different Woolworths and gets grabbed by security.. and in that scenario.. is her presence in store prosecutable?
