Notes:
- Wall of shame introdused in Merrylands shoe store
- Camera images exposed
- Shoplifting had fallen
- Method was criticised
Summary: The level of shoplifting had decreased after the wall of shame displayed in the shoe store in Merrylands. Ms Tucker, the manager of the store decided to put up the images of people caught taking shoes from the store because of lost money, around $300 every month. As a research showed the most of thefts are committed by women. However, name & shame displaying was criticised by the NSW Council for Civil Liberties. The President Cameron Murphy suggests to call the police for the solution of this situation.
Presonal reflection: It is understood that the wall of shame method is against people' rights, but this way might stop some people to not steal from the store and forse them to pay as the most of customers do.
