NRF Retail Converge
Continues
NRF Retail Converge: Day 3 Highlights
 Strengthening
store sentiment and focusing on emotional health
NRF Retail Converge continues this week with sessions featuring
leaders from retailers across the industry. Check out the recap below and join
the virtual event through Friday, June 25 to learn from more retail experts.
Sam's Club is positioning its stores as showrooms with member experience at
the center, said President and
CEO Kath McLay
in a discussion with Rodney Sides, global leader of Deloitte insights and
vice chairman, US retail and distribution Leader at Deloitte LLP. Tech tools
like Sam's Club's app create value for members by memorizing purchase history,
reminding them of items they need to repurchase and recommending new items.
Kohl's CEO Michelle Gass
discussed the value of the store now and what the Kohl's store of the future
will look like. "For us, the stores are key, we are thinking about them
differently. They are an omnichannel hub," said Gass. Gass also disclosed the
retailer's appeal that attracted partnerships like Sephora, Amazon and other
retail partners.
When Mark
Tritton became Bed Bath & Beyond President and CEO, the customer was not at
the center of
company strategy. That has since changed as the retailer improved messaging
and presentation, store layout, simplified checkout and more.

Violence, Crime & Protests
San Francisco DA Announces Partnership to
Combat Retail Theft
District Attorney's Office Files Charges in Shoplifting Cases & Announces
Partnership to Combat Retail Theft in San Francisco
 SAN
FRANCISCO - San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin announced the
filing of 15 charges against Jean Lugo Romero, who is alleged to be the
individual depicted in a
widely-circulated video of a shoplifting at a San Francisco Walgreens
last week.
In addition to charges in connection with that incident, the District Attorney's
Office is charging Lugo Romero in connection with seven other
shoplifting-related incidents, all of which occurred between May 11 and June 19,
2021.
"Local businesses and neighborhood stores are the backbone of our community,
and we are working to protect San Francisco stores and consumers," said San
Francisco District Attorney Boudin. "In addition to our prosecutions, our office
is engaged in numerous strategic partnerships, dismantling the criminal networks
that make these crimes profitable."
One such partnership is the ongoing relationship with
ALTO, an international
organization that coordinates the loss prevention efforts of retailers, police,
and prosecutors, which has been working with the San Francisco District
Attorney's Office to address retail theft in San Francisco. When a retail
crime occurs, ALTO assists retailers in filing police reports and gathering
evidence. ALTO tracks cases through the prosecution process, working with
prosecutors to ensure they have the evidence they need to hold those who commit
these crimes accountable. ALTO's approach combines strong reporting, deterrent
marketing, community engagement, and accountability to change criminal
behaviors.
 ALTO
representatives have praised the responsiveness of the San Francisco District
Attorney's Office in combating retail thefts and supporting the stores
affected by it. "We commend the San Francisco District Attorney's Office for
its proactive approach to retail theft cases," said Ray Adams, COO for ALTO USA.

Biden's Anti-Crime Strategy Calls for More
Police Funding
Biden Calls for Using Covid-19 Aid to Address Rise in Violent Crime
President laid out his crime-prevention
strategy as Republicans seek to tie increase in crime to calls for cuts to
police departments
 President
Biden laid out his crime-prevention strategy Wednesday amid a rise in gun
violence in many cities, as Republicans seek to tie the increase in crime to
calls for cuts to police departments.
Mr. Biden emphasized that state and local officials in areas experiencing surges
in gun violence can use $350 billion in Covid-19 relief funding to hire more
law-enforcement personnel, even if it raises the total number beyond its
pre-pandemic level.
They also can use that money to invest in programs that try to identify and
mediate potentially violent conflicts. The administration will work with
14 cities, including Atlanta, Baltimore and Detroit, that are increasing
investments in such programs, known as community violence intervention.
"It means more police officers, more nurses, more counselors, more social
workers or community violence interrupters to help resolve issues before they
escalate into crimes," Mr. Biden said.
Biden also renewed calls for Congress to pass comprehensive gun legislation
as two relevant loophole-closing bills sit in legislative limbo; like the fate
of many Biden-supported bills, they seem destined to fail due to lack of any
Republican support.
"I've been at this a long time," said Biden, who was accompanied by Attorney
General Merrick Garland. "There are things we know that work to reduce gun
violence and violent crime: background checks for purchasing a firearm
are important; [a] ban on assault weapons and high capacity magazines;
community policing programs that keep neighborhoods safe and keep folks out
of trouble. These efforts work, they save lives."
The White House is seeking to address a number of issues through a flurry of
executive orders, from cutting off the flow of illegally sold firearms,
to expanding summer programs, and notably by using a chunk of coronavirus
relief money for localities and municipalities to allot to police departments.

Cops Caught Between Community Outrage &
Violent Crime Surge
Can Police Cope With the Surge in Violent Crime?
The surge in violent crime has thrust the nation's police chiefs into the
middle of an uncomfortable debate between those demanding a radical overhaul
of policing and those calling for a return to stricter, hardline law
enforcement.
And the debate threatens to undermine efforts to address the reasons for the
surge, police chiefs of four major cities reeling from the violent crime
increase warned Tuesday.
PERF invited Shields and the police chiefs of New York City, Portland, Ore., and
Baton Rouge, La., to discuss how they were coping with spikes in homicides
over the past 18 months, ranging between 40 percent and 60 per cent, and in some
cases as high as 90 percent.
In often devastatingly frank comments, the chiefs said they felt caught
between community outrage over police misconduct and the anger of rank-and-file
cops who felt undercut by reform politicians and prosecutors.
"Officers are afraid they're going to be hung out to dry," said Shields,
who acknowledged that "proactive" policing in her city effectively stopped in
the wake of community-wide outrage following the police shooting of Breonna
Taylor during a botched raid on her Louisville apartment in March 2020.
The chiefs said much of the recent growth in violent crime was concentrated in a
few neighborhoods in their cities where there was an increase in illegal
firearms, fueled in particular by local gang feuds and drug trafficking. But
he also added that addressing the problem was complicated by recent justice
reforms passed in the state legislature, as well as the paralysis of the
court system during the pandemic.
According to the Major Cities Chiefs Association, homicides
rose overall by more than 32 percent in 66 major cities from 2019 to 2020.
Aggravated assaults were also up 15 percent, while many non-violent
offenses, with the exception of car theft, have gone down.
New York City registered a
97 percent increase in shooting incidents and a 44 percent increase in
homicides in 2020, compared to the previous year.
However, criminologists say statistics do not support any connection between
bail reform and rising violent crime. According to NYPD data,
only one person released due to the bail reform legislation was charged with
a shooting, of the 528 recorded between January and June 2020.

Mall Shooting Triggers More Security Training
in Atlanta
Atlanta, GA: Local private security companies training up employees after Lenox
Square Mall shooting
Several local private security companies are preparing their employees for
firearms training after a security guard was shot outside of Lenox Square Mall
just over a week ago.
 Owners
of many of these companies told Channel 2′s Michael Seiden they were shaken by
what happened, but were determined to make sure their employees are getting
the best training, so they can protect themselves and others if they ever
found themselves in a similar situation.
Police say two 15-year-old suspects were trying to break into the Apple store
inside the mall when one of them opened fire on the security guard, wounding
him in the chest and stomach. As of Monday evening, Godjuhn Green, an
employee of Allied Universal, is still in critical condition as the
community continues to rally around him.
Parris Brooks is the CEO of Gridiron Protection Agency, which has been providing
security to celebrities, executives and residential and commercial properties
since 2016. He says this brazen act of violence has not only left him and his
employees shaken, but many clients as well.
Brooks is now requiring all his officers to undergo monthly training, including
firearms for those who want to carry while on the job.
Representatives with Lenox Square Mall released a statement Monday
saying, in part, "We cannot find words strong enough to condemn this violent
and unprovoked action against a valued member of our security team who was
providing after-hours patrol outside the mall."

No More Low-Level Traffic Stops & Searches?
Portland Police Change Traffic Stop and Search Procedures
Police in Portland are being advised to no
longer pursue drivers for low-level traffic infractions unless related to an
immediate safety threat.
 Police
in Oregon's largest city are being advised to no longer pursue low-level traffic
infractions - including expired plates and broken headlights -
unless related to an immediate safety threat,
Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler announced Tuesday.
In addition, if police do stop a driver they must receive recorded consent
before searching the vehicle and clearly inform the person they have the
right to refuse.
Wheeler said both changes are an attempt to refocus on immediate threats and are
also occurring in response to data showing a disproportionate impact on Black
drivers for traffic stops and vehicle searches. While 6% of Portlanders are
Black, he said they account for 18% of traffic stops in the city.
Portland is not the first large city to make such a move regarding traffic
stops. Oakland, California, has had a similar policy for the last several
years.
Portland Police Chief Chuck Lovell said while officers are being directed to
halt pulling drivers over for low-level traffic violations, they will still
use their judgment if the violation is an immediate threat.
For example, a car driving at night without lights, although a minor infraction,
would be considered an immediate safety issue and could be pulled over.

Covid cases will rise in the fall as delta variant spreads, epidemiologist warns
New Covid-19 infections in the U.S. will tick higher this fall as the highly
contagious delta variant spreads, epidemiologist Dr. Anne Rimoin warned
Wednesday.
"This variant, the delta variant, is
60% more infectious than the alpha variant, so that just shows you, that
if you have the same contact with somebody that you had previously who has Covid,
and you're not vaccinated, you are at substantial risk of getting infected,"
Rimoin, a professor of epidemiology at the UCLA School of Public Health, told
CNBC's "The
News with Shepard Smith."
"It's a much more serious game now," Rimoin said.
The delta Covid variant accounts for
roughly 1 of 5 new cases in the U.S. Those numbers doubled in just a few
weeks. Health experts, including Dr. Anthony Fauci and Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky, expect the delta variant
to become the dominant strain in the U.S.

The
Post-Pandemic Retail Theme Park Model
What Retailers can Learn from Theme Parks in the Wake of COVID-19
According to a recent
Raydiant survey, 46% of customers still prefer to shop in-store, but
48% have replaced products they typically buy at physical stores for online
competitor alternatives. This indicates an enduring demand for physical
stores, but the reshuffling of brand loyalty can be concerning to
established brands - and conversely, a boon for entrepreneurs who have a renewed
opportunity to obtain market share.
Regardless of which side you land on, post-COVID-19 retail environments must
return to a focus on entertainment, discovery and brand building, instead of
thinking from a purely transactional standpoint. This is not a new concept, but
one that is more important now than ever before.
What Defines a Retail Experience?
When people think of creating an experience in retail, their mind likely
gravitates toward the big-budget immersive investments you might expect from
Nike, Bass Pro Shops and other established multichannel brands. These are great
examples of experiential retail, but with resource and capital investment
limited to a choice few.
However, experiences like Build-a-Bear prove a simple idea can drive traffic
and increase spending because of the personal connections that are created
in the making of a new best friend. Outlet centers are also a form of
experience, albeit one more reserved and price-driven compared with the theme
park retail model. People still need to drive longer distances to them, and they
plan their day around the excitement of getting great deals on top-shelf items.
Outlet centers, which historically tend to be outdoors (great for COVID-19), can
build on the concept by mapping out events and other activities that make
them even more of a destination than before. This requires a coordinated
approach between the real estate developer and the brands themselves to deliver
entertainment concepts that mesh together.

Businesses Blowing off OSHA Fines
Calif. issued millions in COVID fines. Employers have paid almost none of them
Six months into the pandemic, California's workplace safety agency tried to send
an ominous message about COVID-19 safety to business owners: "We're
watching."
By April 2021, inspectors with
California's
Division of Occupational Safety and Health, better known as Cal-OSHA, had
ordered roughly $4.6 million in fines for wrongdoing related to the COVID-19
in some 200 workplaces.
But behind the scenes at the state's workplace safety agency, California
employers and their lawyers have filed an onslaught of appeals, delayed paying
their fines and sought deals to pay next to nothing, a Sacramento Bee review
of Cal-OSHA fines and payment data found.
Violations generally fell into three categories: failing to maintain proper
safety and training plans, lacking protective equipment such as masks or
plexiglass barriers, and blowing past deadlines to inform regulators of
coronavirus deaths - if they did so at all.
Worker advocates say bad actors faced no true consequences from the state
of California for killing people or making them sick. Some have
sued the employers. The lack of enforcement also allowed alleged
wrongdoing to continue long after a violation was first reported, they say.

The Fine Line of Security's Role as a
Deterrent
How People Process and Technology Influence Response
 In
recent news, there has been a growing trend of retail location shoplifting.
The epicenter of this has been around pharmacies (CVS, Walgreens) in the San
Francisco Bay Area.
Proposition 47
has made any theft of under $950 considered a misdemeanor of petty theft,
and criminals are taking advantage of this at scale. One such incident in
particular has made headlines, with a brazen shoplifter stealing merchandise
while a
security guard observed and videotaped the incident. In the video, the
guard is seen attempting - without success - to grab the thief's bag as they
escape on a bicycle they brought into the store.
The optics of this incident are not very good for the officer. However, the
security officer was likely executing his job duties well according to his
training. This is an important aspect of physical security training that
deserves a closer look.
Security Officers Are Trained to Minimize Risk at All
Times
For most security organizations, there are policies and procedures in place
to handle loss prevention in retail environments. There is a risk assessment
that organizations must make in these situations; one that weighs the cost of
goods stolen with the human cost of escalating a situation.
Security organizations train their team to "observe and report" when there is
a potential situation. They are trained to practice situational awareness
and understand the risks of intervention beyond what is considered acceptable.
In other cases, the security team must follow the policy of the retail
organization they are protecting. Oftentimes, the retail organization's policy
will prohibit any employee - whether they are directly employed or contracted
- to engage with a shoplifter. Leveraging a risk-based approach here matters
immensely.
Security Officers as a Deterrent: A Role Currently
Challenged
More and more criminals are becoming brazen in their attempts in retail
establishments, to the point at which certain metro areas, such as San
Francisco, have three times more security than anywhere else in the country.
Combine this with new laws and pandemic-related demand, and the security
officer's role as a deterrent becomes more challenging than ever.
How People, Process and Technology are Influence the
Response of Security
This is a fine line that security officers have to walk in these challenging
times. It is a common, emotional response to want to see authority figures "take
down" a criminal in these situations, and when they don't the reaction is often
visceral. However, having proper situational awareness and balancing risk
over the perceived reward is important to understand. People, processes and
technology all play a part in the security role.
Will the Security Role Change Going Forward?

LAPD Officers Under Investigation for Ties to
Amazon Ring
LAPD launches investigation into officers' relationship with Ring
The Los Angeles Police Department has launched an internal investigation into
its officers' communications with the Amazon-owned security company Ring,
after a
Times report revealed the camera maker provided at least 100 officers
free devices or discounts and encouraged them to promote the products to
colleagues and members of the community.
 LAPD
Chief Michel Moore said at a
Los
Angeles Police Commission meeting Tuesday that the investigation by the
department's Professional Standards Bureau would seek to "determine whether
any of the communications violated department policy and any actions of our
personnel violated department policy."
Moore said he recognizes that officers' relationship with Ring is a matter of
public interest and that agency rules prohibit personnel from placing
themselves in a "position of compromise by soliciting or accepting a gratuity."
After examining the last 10 years of complaints Moore said the LAPD
identified seven conflicts that were reported that involve officers accepting
gratuities. One of those complaints pertained to Ring.
More than 60 officers in a single station accepted offers for one or more of
Ring's cameras, amounting to at least $10,000 in free merchandise, emails show.
As Ring's cameras gained popularity among consumers, the company provided
police access to a growing network of surveillance devices with less red tape
than typical means of obtaining video evidence. A Ring spokesperson
previously told The Times the company stopped providing freebies and discounts
to law enforcement officials and ended its policies of "encouraging police to
promote" its products in 2019.

Retail Wage Wars
Wage hikes at companies like Amazon, Chipotle & McDonald's are likely a
one-off boost
Amazon, Under Armour, Chipotle, and McDonald's raised their starting
wages through the spring, and in May, overall wage growth accelerated to its
fastest rate since the 1980s as businesses scrambled to attract workers.
But don't count on it being a revolutionary jump in worker power, at
least not according to Oxford Economics, whose chief US economist, Gregory Daco,
wrote on Wednesday that the recent wave of wage hikes is most likely a one-off.
"While lower-paying jobs are getting unprecedented wage growth, we believe
this reflects a one-time releveling of low wages rather than a permanent
shift in workers' bargaining power," he said.
It's also unlikely that businesses will factor higher inflation into their 2022
wage-setting plans, Daco added. Unless stronger productivity and higher profits
spur a rethink, businesses are likely to stick to the status quo seen before the
pandemic, the economist said.

Cutting Through NYC's Retail Red Tape
It's Expensive to Open Stores in NYC. Help is Here.
Retail clothing brands provide the
merchandise and these companies do the rest
 When
Matt Scanlan, chief executive of New York City-based women's clothing company
Something Navy opened a Manhattan store earlier this month, he didn't mess with
any of those daunting tasks.
Instead, he partnered with Leap, a New York-based company that provides just
about everything needed to open and operate a store. You provide the
merchandise, Leap pretty much does the rest.
It was Leap that located and signed the lease on Something Navy's storefront at
the corner of Madison Avenue and East 80th Street, renovated the space, designed
the layout and installed the fixtures. The checkout system is provided by Leap,
along with the data-analytics system. Shoppers have no idea that the stores's
salespeople are all hired, trained and employed by Leap.
Something Navy is just one of a growing number of local clothing brands
working with Leap to open storefronts in New York City. And it isn't just
for the company's bricks-and-mortar expertise. It costs a lot to open even a
small store in Manhattan-$150,000 minimum for a reasonably well-trafficked
location-and Leap bears most of the upfront costs.

Multi-Nation 'Joint Cyber Unit'
EU to launch rapid response cybersecurity team
Barrage of cyberattacks pushes EU to pool
powers to fight hackers.
 The
European Commission will present its plan on Wednesday to set up what it calls
the "Joint Cyber Unit," which would allow national capitals hit by
cyberattacks to ask for help from other countries and the EU, including
through rapid response teams that can swoop in and fight off hackers in real
time, according to the draft.
A spate of cyberattacks have wreaked havoc on the Continent, leading to
concerns that Europe cannot defend itself or its trade secrets against
adversaries. The EU's plan aims to help countries fight back against
increasingly sophisticated and brash attacks by pooling national
governments' cybersecurity powers.
The plan would also set up a platform for cybercrime police, cyber agencies,
diplomats, military services and cybersecurity firms to coordinate responses
and share resources. And it would prepare regular threat reports, prepare and
test crisis response plans and set up information-sharing agreements between
authorities and private cybersecurity firms.
The Commission first promised to set up a Joint Cyber Unit in 2019 to stop the
cyberattacks that have compromised EU institutions, agencies, national
ministries and departments, and leading European companies and organizations.
But the plan took many months to finalize because the EU doesn't have competence
over national security, and EU countries have been hesitant to give away control
over it.
The unit would also coordinate existing work between cyber agencies and
authorities across the bloc. A group of EU countries have already created
joint cyber response teams under the EU's defense cooperation scheme.
Cybersecurity agencies have worked together on policies to protect elections and
5G infrastructure, and cybercrime police from across the Continent cooperate on
investigations at the European Cybercrime Centre.
The Commission hopes the unit is fully operational by the end of 2022,
and that Europe's cybersecurity industry is involved in the operations by the
first half of 2023, according to the plan.

Remote Work Directing Resources Away from
Cybersecurity?
IT leaders say cybersecurity funding being wasted on remote work support
JumpCloud gained insights from surveying 401
IT decision-makers.
IT leaders are taking issue with the amount of cybersecurity money their
organizations are spending to support remote work, according to
a new survey from JumpCloud.
On Wednesday, the company released the findings of its 2021 State of the SME IT
Admin Report, which featured the responses of 401 IT decision-makers at small
and medium-sized enterprises from April. Those surveyed include managers,
directors, vice presidents, and executives.
More than 60% of respondents said their enterprise was paying "for more tooling
than they need" to manage user identities, while another 56% said too much
was being spent on enabling remote work.
Respondents were more split on the top concerns, with 39% referencing
software vulnerabilities, 37% expressing concern about reused usernames and
passwords and 36% mentioning unsecured networks. Another 29% said device
theft was also a concern.
Nearly one-fourth of all respondents said their organization was adopting a Zero
Trust security approach, and 33% said they were in the process of incorporating
it. MFA is also popular among respondents, with 53% saying they require MFA
across everything.
Much of the study focused on employees who are now using both personal and
work devices while also accessing company resources from devices outside of the
corporate security perimeter.

Serious Security Vulnerabilities
Majority of Web Apps in 11 Industries Are Vulnerable All the Time
Serious vulnerabilities exist every day in
certain industries, including utilities, public administration, and professional
services, according to testing data.
Two-thirds of the applications deployed by the utility sector and 63% of
those deployed by public administration organizations have a serious
vulnerability undermining security every day of the year, according to a
report published by WhiteHat Security on June 22.
Overall, 11 industries saw a serious vulnerability in at least half of
their applications every day for the last year. The top three industries on the
list - utilities, public administration, and professional services - take at
least 288 days on average to fix vulnerabilities, according to the company's
monthly AppSec Stats Flash report for June.
The slow patching cadence happens because, in many cases, there is a long tail
of legacy applications that do not have an active development team working on
them, says Setu Kulkarni, vice president of strategy at WhiteHat Security.
Finance and insurance companies - an industry sector frequently targeted
in the past - have performed much better, but not stellar. Falling 13th on the
list of sectors with long windows of exposure, 43% of the sector's applications
were always vulnerable, versus 29% of applications that were only vulnerable for
30 days or less.

New DNS Name Server Hijack Attack Exposes Businesses, Government Agencies
Cloud security researchers from Wiz.io were poking around at Amazon Web
Services' Route53 Domain Name Service (DNS) earlier this year when they
suddenly realized that its self-service domain registration system let them set
up a new hosted zone with the same name as the real AWS name server it was
using. Within seconds, they watched in shock as their phony name server got
flooded with DNS queries from other AWS customers' networks: external and
internal IP addresses, computer names for finance, human resources, production
servers, and organization names.
All told, they got traffic from more than 15,000 different AWS customers and
a million endpoint devices, all after registering a phony AWS name server as
ns-852.awsdns-42.net, the same name as an actual AWS name server.

Security & Race: Roadblocks for Cannabis
Entrepreneurs
Murder case involving cannabis entrepreneur highlights issues of race, security
 An
Oklahoma case involving a Black marijuana business owner charged with
first-degree murder is focusing a spotlight on how both race and security
protocols can be major issues and stumbling blocks for cannabis
entrepreneurs.
Marijuana grower and military veteran LaRue Bratcher is awaiting trial after
he shot and killed a man who was allegedly trying to break into his cultivation
facility in Oklahoma City last year. If convicted,
he could face life in prison or even the death penalty, Yahoo News reported.
One key element in Bratcher's case: He's Black, and the alleged burglar, Daniel
Hardwick, was white. Bratcher initially landed in legal hot water after the
shooting because his grow, which he founded in 2018, had an expired license.
After the shooting, Bratcher was charged with operating an illegal grow site,
and police confiscated his 480 plants, worth
an estimated $1.5 million, Oklahoma City TV station KWTV reported.
That felony marijuana charge was paired with a second-degree murder charge,
which was later upgraded to first-degree murder. The murder charge comes with an
added wrinkle: Oklahoma has a "stand your ground" law, which allows residents
who are in fear for their lives to respond to threats with deadly force without
fear of criminal charges.
But authorities say it doesn't apply to this case, because Bratcher was
running the grow operation illegally without a permit, so prosecutors asserted
that "any self-defense clause is thrown out," Yahoo News reported.
Oklahoma attorney Sarah Lee Gossett Parrish, who helps businesses such as
Bratcher's get licensed, said she was "shocked" by how the case has played out.
Parrish also said one of the takeaways for other marijuana business owners is,
if in doubt, follow the letter of the law when it comes to operations.
Blevins, however, disagreed and said from a security standpoint he always
advises clients against having firearms on-site. Blevins said it's rare that
robberies of marijuana businesses turn violent. When they do, it's typically
because the target of the robbery is trying to resist or scare the offender
away, as Bratcher did.
"My first recommendation would be no weapons whatsoever on a cannabis site,"
Blevins said. "It's a much greater chance it could be used in a situation
that turns bad, like this one."

Safe & Secure Storage in the High-Risk
Cannabis Industry
Secure Storage for Cannabis Businesses Big & Small
Although storage is important for any business, it is especially important
for businesses in cannabis and other high-risk industries. Any business that
handles high-value products can be susceptible to theft without adequate secure
storage procedures, but cannabis is also prone to deterioration
when
stored improperly. When designing and building out a cannabis facility,
cannabis security experts prioritize choosing the proper secure storage option.
The main two choices for secure storage are
vaults and safes, but these can vary drastically in quality, cost, and
function.
Secure Storage for Smaller Cannabis Businesses
Smaller cannabis businesses with limited amounts of cannabis on-site, including
retailers and craft grows, may choose to store product in safes rather than a
vault. The benefit of safes is that they can be easily added to any business
regardless of floor plan, unlike vaults which require substantial alterations to
existing structures to install.
Secure Storage for Larger Cannabis Businesses
For cannabis businesses with significant amounts of cannabis on-site, including
cultivators, manufacturers, large retailers, a secure storage room or vault
would be the preferred storage option. Not all vaults are considered equal,
and the security of vaults can vary based on the construction materials and
equipped security devices. When vaults are built by inexperienced general
contractor, they can cause structural damage to the existing building due to the
heavy construction materials.
One of the most secure and cost-efficient options for cannabis secure storage
room is lining the walls and ceiling with
maximum-security mesh. This method is used to secure government,
commercial, and retail buildings all over the world and is easier to implement
in existing structures than a traditional vault constructed with concreate.
Secure storage rooms lined with maximum-security mesh help create a protected
and controlled environment for the storage of cannabis.
Choosing A Cannabis Secure Storage Option
Although there are many options for cannabis secure storage, there is no 'one
solution' that is right for every cannabis business. That is why it is important
to hire security experts with experience in secure cannabis storage for all
license types. Choosing a cheap safe or hiring an inexperienced general
contractor to install the vault could cost a business thousands of dollars, but
the right cannabis secure storage solution could set the business up for
success.

'The Buried Alive Project'
Las Vegas cannabis dispensary helps free people in prison for
non-violent drug crimes
 The
Buried Alive Project has dozens of videos in their archives of people
walking out of prison for the first time in more than a decade and hugging their
friends and families as a free person outside of the concrete and barbed wire.
It's the moment co-founder Brittany K. Barnett said makes all of the pro-bono
legal work her team puts in to help out worth it. Every person she has helped
was convicted of a non-violent drug crime and sentenced to spend the rest of
their life behind bars.
Barnett has helped free more than 50 people who had spent more than a decade
in prison for acts that now legal marijuana companies are making millions of
dollars doing. Barnett said the disparity in justice was best summed up by
one of her clients.
"People are selling marijuana today and getting a life savings," he quoted. "I
sold marijuana and got a life sentence." That's exactly why the Jardin Las
Vegas Cannabis Dispensary decided to help them out.

The 19th State to Legalize Cannabis
Connecticut Gov. Lamont signs marijuana bill; possession will be legal on July
1, retail sales could begin by the end of 2022
With Lamont's signature, Connecticut became the 19th state to legalize
cannabis.
The new law will allow adults 21 or older to purchase and possess up to 1.5
ounces of marijuana (or up to 5 ounces locked away at home or in a vehicle's
glove box or trunk) starting on July 1. Retail sales of recreational cannabis
in Connecticut would not start until the end of 2022, about six months later
than the legislation initially envisioned.
Critics of legalization say it will lead to an increase in cannabis
consumption among children, a spike in crime, a rise in addiction and
other societal ills.

Biggest 'Prime Day' Ever
Total e-commerce sales during Amazon Prime Day surpass $11 billion, Adobe says
That made Monday the biggest day for digital
sales this year and Tuesday the second-busiest, according to Adobe.
 Total
online retail sales in the United States during Amazon's 48-hour Prime Day
surpassed $11 billion - 6.1% higher than overall e-commerce transactions
generated by the 2020 event, according to Adobe Analytics data.
The total was slightly more than last year's Cyber Monday, which was the
busiest digital sales day on record, Adobe said. However, the Prime Day event
was for 48 hours rather than the 24-hour Cyber Monday splurge after
Thanksgiving.
The index Adobe Analytics tracked looks at more than 1 trillion visits to U.S.
retail sites and over 100 million items across 18 product categories.
Online retail sales amounted to $5.6 billion on Monday, the first day of Prime
Day, and $5.4 billion on day two, Adobe said. That made Monday the biggest
day for digital sales this year and Tuesday the second-busiest, according to
Adobe. By comparison, the 48-hour Prime Day 2020 generated $10.4 billion in
overall U.S. digital revenue, according to Adobe.
Sales during Cyber Monday 2020 amounted to about $10.9 billion, marking the
largest U.S. online shopping day on record.

Destroying Thousands of New Products
One Amazon warehouse destroys 130,000 items per week, including MacBooks,
COVID-19 masks, and TVs
A probe into a UK Amazon warehouse found it
marked millions of items for destruction each year.
An Amazon warehouse in Scotland destroys millions of unsold products every
year, an investigation from the British news outlet
ITV found.
 ITV
filmed undercover footage inside Amazon's warehouse in Dunfermline, Scotland.
The footage showed laptops, TVs, jewelry, headphones, books, and face masks
being loaded into crates marked "destroy."
An anonymous former Amazon employee told ITV that workers at the warehouse were
given a weekly target of 130,000 items to destroy. This was corroborated by an
internal memo viewed by ITV, which showed that during one week in April,
124,000 items were marked "destroy." In the same week, 28,000 products
were marked "donate."
"There's no rhyme or reason to what gets destroyed: Dyson fans, Hoovers, the
occasional MacBook and iPad; the other day, 20,000 COVID (face) masks still in
their wrappers," the ex-employee told ITV. About half of the items marked
for destruction were still in their shrink-wrap, while the other half were
returned items in good condition, they said.
An Amazon spokesperson told Insider that Dunfermline handles all products marked
for destruction for the entire UK.
If 130,000 is a weekly average, that would translate to more than 6 million
products marked for destruction every year. In 2019, undercover reporters in
France found that Amazon destroyed
over 3 million products in one year.
"We are working toward a goal of zero product disposal and our priority is to
resell, donate to charitable organisations, or recycle any unsold products.
No items are sent to landfill in the UK. As a last resort, we will send items to
energy recovery, but we're working hard to drive the number of times this
happens down to zero," the spokesperson said.

Update: Rochester, NY: Pawn shop owner pleads guilty to selling more than $1
million in stolen goods
The owner of a Rochester-based pawn shop pleaded guilty Wednesday to selling
more than $1 million worth of stolen goods, according to federal prosecutors.
U.S. Attorney James Kennedy said 39-year-old Thomas Nary of Rochester pleaded
guilty to transportation of stolen goods in interstate commerce. The charge
carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine.
Prosecutors say Nary owned Rochester Pawn & Gold on Dewey Avenue between January
2015 and November 2019. They say Nary purchased stolen goods and merchandise
from "individuals that he knew were engaged in unlawful shoplifting from
Rochester area retail stores." Federal officials say: "The stolen items were
taken from various stores, including Lowes, Home Depot, Target, Walmart and
Wegmans, and then sold to RPG for a fraction of the true retail value. The
defendant then listed the stolen goods for sale on eBay and Amazon, including to
buyers located outside of New York State. The goods were advertised as "New" or
"New-In-Box" and priced below retail value, although the price was well in
excess of what Nary paid those that stole the items.
The defendant sold and shipped more than $1,500,000 worth of stolen goods to
buyers." Nary was charged in November 2019 along with co-defendants Eric
Finnefrock and Ralph Swain, who were both previously convicted and are awaiting
sentencing. Officials say sentencing will be scheduled at a later date.

Tampa, FL: Shoe store offers $20K reward after $200K in rare footwear stolen
 Four
thieves cut a hole through the back wall of a shoe store in International Plaza
and made off with hundreds of thousands worth of merchandise, police say. The
Tampa Police Department is trying to identify four men who made their own back
door to Vault 813, a high-end shoe store inside the shopping mall. Surveillance
video shows the men walking through a hallway that appears to have doors to
several mall businesses. TPD said the suspects cut a hole in the back wall of
only one store and then started filling garbage bags with expensive items. After
taking shoes from the storeroom and display racks, they took off through the
hole where they entered.
The video shows the men hauling two trash bags each through the hallways. Some
of the stolen kicks are rare, including a pair of Nike Air Jordan 6 Retro "Night
Glow," Jordan 3 Retro "Blue Cement" Varsity Royal/Cement Grey, and Jordan 5
Retro Fab Five PE. Police say if anyone sees someone wearing these shoes, they
were likely stolen from the store. Store employees are still adding up the
cost for everything that was stolen, but so far it appears to be about $200,000
in shoes. Vault 813 is offering a $20,000 reward for anyone who provides
information that leads to an arrest and the stolen merchandise.

Mesa, AZ: Suspects targeted Walmart stores in 5 states, stole more than $100K
 Two
women accused of stealing more than $100,000 from Walmart stores across several
Western states were arrested in Arizona last week. Mary Garcia, 47, and Melinda
Rodriguez, 38, were arrested by Mesa police on June 17 for allegedly using an
in-store app to steal products from stores in Arizona, California, Utah,
Colorado and Texas, the Mesa Police Department said in a release. Walmart's Loss
Prevention teams noticed several suspicious transactions after the women
allegedly scanned items in the store to use the quick pay at checkout but would
then bypass payment. By using the app, the women gave the appearance they were
paying for the items. The department said. The women allegedly stole $106,000
worth in items from Arizona's Maricopa County alone, authorities said.
In March, police began working with Walmart Loss Prevention to track Garcia and
Rodriguez to the alleged thefts in the other states, according to FOX 10 of
Phoenix. "Thanks to the strong partnership between Walmart and the Mesa Police
Department, thefts like this are not overlooked," the department wrote in the
release. "Thefts of this type can cause retailers to raise prices to compensate
for loss. By arresting thieves who steal large amounts of merchandise, prices
are kept at bay for the everyday honest consumer."

California pharmacies
A Lynnwood man was convicted of federal robbery on Wednesday for organizing and
guiding a crew member who committed 15 people. Armed robbers of independent moms

Indianapolis, IN: $15,000 in fireworks and a hand gun stolen during burglary of
west side store
Burglars broke into a west side fireworks shop walking away with thousands of
dollars in merchandise. It happened at Don's Fireworks near Girl School Road.
The crooks pried open their backdoor and hauled out more than $15,000 in
fireworks. The shop says they also swiped their locked money box which had a gun
in it. To make matters worse, there is a fireworks shortage in the United
States, so the store was already low on product compared to years past. "It's
sad they took as much as they did because people actually really come in and
enjoy it," tells Megan Damato, store manager of Don's Fireworks, "It's scary
knowing our kids sit up here, and now they have a gun." Police are still looking
for the suspects. Don's Fireworks is waiting on potential surveillance footage
from a nearby business to see if it caught any of the burglars breaking in.

Shootings & Deaths
Dekalb County, GA: 2 dead, 2 injured in shooting at a metro Atlanta gas station,
as many as 50 shots were fired
 DeKalb
County police are investigating two shootings that happened at two different gas
stations. The first shooting left two people dead and two others injured. It
happened Tuesday just before 10:30 p.m. in unincorporated DeKalb County at the
Exxon gas station on Glenwood Road near Austin Drive. According to a DeKalb
County police spokesperson, as many as 50 shots were fired during the melee.

Moments later, a man in his late 50's approached the group and fired one shot,
killing one of the men in the group. The two other men in the group returned
fire, striking and killing the man in his 50's. Two additional male bystanders
were also struck during the gunfire. They were rushed to an area hospital with
non-life-threatening injuries. Police are reviewing nearby surveillance video.
Investigators do not believe robbery is a motive, but detectives are not sure
why the man fired the initial shot.

The man accused of killing his ex-fiancée inside an upscale Roseville restaurant
earlier this week made his first appearance in Placer Superior Court. Johnnie

entered the House of Oliver and gunned down Joga.

Robberies, Incidents & Thefts
Jewelers Security Alliance: As Stores Reopen, Staff Need to Watch for Red Flags
Never getting off the cell phone, heavy jackets in the heat of summer and coming
in and out of the store can be signs something is amiss. The Jewelers' Security
Alliance is reminding jewelers and their sales associates to remain vigilant as
the country continues to reopen. JSA President John Kennedy said he expects
"things could be heating up" in the coming months. So far this year, JSA
statistics show dollar losses are down dramatically when compared with 2020 and
2019, a year in which dollar losses spiked due to a small number of professional
gangs pulling off big burglaries. The number of incidences, however, remains on
par with 2020 and 2019. "We don't want to see people become complacent," Kennedy
said Tuesday. "I can't say that crime has really taken off, but we are concerned
that it could," he added, noting many people are under financial duress and the
world in general remains "topsy-turvy."
Last week, JSA issued a crime alert on what Kennedy described as a "significant"
amount of activity for one week. The organization received reports of four
grab-and-run thefts and two smash-and-grabs between June 8 and 15.
According to the alert there were:
- A grab-and-run involving an expensive watch in a jewelry store in Ontario,
California on June 8;
- A smash-and-grab in a jewelry store in Montgomery, Alabama on June 9;
- A grab-and-run involving a necklace in a department store in Exton,
Pennsylvania on June 9;
- A grab-and-run involving a gold chain from a jewelry store in San Antonio,
Texas on June 10;
- A grab-and-run involving a gold chain from a jewelry store in Downey,
California on June 12; and
- A smash-and-grab at a jewelry store in Tulalip, Washington on June 15.

Ashland, OR: California men who assaulted Black Oregon Gas Station attendant
charged with hate crime
Two California men have been charged under Oregon's hate crime statute after
they allegedly assaulted a Black gas station attendant in May, according to the
Ashland Police Department. The incident happened on May 13, when Ashland Police
responded to the AM/PM gas station at 2380 Ashland Street for reports of an
assault in progress. An investigation into the attack found that two white men
had assaulted a Black gas station attendant "while using racist language," the
agency said. Detectives took over the investigation and later identified the two
men as Caleb Pierce, 23 and Scott Sutton, 32. "The investigation substantiated
that Pierce and Sutton's action constituted a bias crime under Oregon law," APD
said in a statement.
Hate crimes are known as bias crimes under Oregon law, and represent crimes
motivated by bias against another person's race, color, disability, religion,
national origin, sexual orientation, or gender identity. Oregon's statute was
overhauled by the legislature in 2019, adding gender identity as a protected
class. Court documents indicate that Pierce and Sutton were indicted on June 14
in Jackson County, with warrants issued for their arrest. Police later arrested
Pierce and Sutton on charges for Bias Crime in the First Degree (felony), Bias
Crime in the Second Degree, Disorderly Conduct in the Second Degree, Assault in
the Third Degree, and Harassment. Both men have since been released pending
future court dates.

The difference between success and failure is in the planning and the execution.
Taking something from a thought or idea to a reality can be a long and painful
process lined with failures and detractors. But a great idea is only as good as
the plan you have to bring it to life and the execution everyone delivers to
give it a life. Because without the two the great idea never existed. As one "C"
level executive once told me- He never saw a bad great idea as it was always the
failed plan to roll it out and the poor execution that killed it.
Just a Thought,
Gus
