Shoplifters

I once knew this girl who was a serious klepto - she would steal thousands of dollars of clothes from high end department stores like Bloomingdale's. Well she recently got caught, although she had been doing this for several years now it was her first time. The way she got caught was when an undercover had noticed her behavior behind the dressing room. I was always suspicious of the fact that no cameras have ever caught her before. This is somewhat like the Panoptic observation in Foucault. My friend knew there were cameras, and knew that she could have been watched but took that chance to steal anyway. But one thing she never watched out for were other customers in the store. At least now she has learned her lesson.
