The U.S. Crime Surge
The Retail Impact
Data Sharing Strengthens ORC
Investigations
The Growing Role of Data Sharing
in Organized Retail Crime Investigations
 By
the D&D Daily staff
As organized retail crime (ORC) networks become more sophisticated,
retailers are increasingly turning to data-sharing partnerships to
identify patterns that may not be visible at the individual store level.
A single theft incident can appear relatively minor in isolation.
However, when multiple retailers compare incident reports, suspect
descriptions, vehicle information and theft methods, a much larger
picture can emerge. What initially looks like unrelated shoplifting
events may actually be part of a coordinated operation targeting
multiple retailers across a region.
This shift toward intelligence-led investigations has become an
important component of many retailers' ORC strategies. Retail crime
associations, fusion centers and information-sharing networks are
helping loss prevention teams connect incidents across jurisdictions and
build stronger cases for law enforcement.
Technology is also playing a growing role. Modern case management
platforms allow investigators to link video footage, suspect images,
vehicle information and incident reports from multiple locations.
Analytics tools can identify recurring patterns, such as repeat
offenders targeting the same product categories or organized groups
moving through specific geographic regions.
For law enforcement, access to more complete intelligence can improve
the likelihood of identifying criminal networks rather than focusing
solely on individual theft incidents. In some cases, investigators have
been able to uncover larger fencing operations and resale networks after
retailers combined evidence from dozens of separate events.
The approach reflects a broader evolution in how retailers view
organized retail crime. Historically, investigations often centered
on losses within a single company. Today, many retailers recognize that
ORC groups frequently target multiple brands and operate across city,
county and state boundaries. As a result, collaboration is becoming just
as important as traditional loss prevention tactics.
Industry advocates continue to support efforts that strengthen
information sharing between retailers and law enforcement agencies.
Supporters argue that organized retail crime is increasingly a regional
and national issue, requiring coordinated responses that extend beyond
individual stores or companies.
As criminal groups continue to adapt their tactics, data-sharing
partnerships are expected to remain a critical tool in helping
retailers identify trends, disrupt criminal activity and support
successful investigations.
NYC Crime Drops 10.6% in First Five
Months of 2026
Overall major crime hits record low, but hate crimes are up, NYPD says
The NYPD says crime statistics show
the fewest murders, shooting incidents and shooting victims in recorded
history for the first five months of the year
 The
latest NYPD crime data shows the city had its fewest murders, shooting
incidents and shooting victims in recorded history for the first five
months of the year. Overall major crime decreased 10.6% citywide,
with around 1,147 fewer reported crimes compared to last May.
Year to date, murders are down almost 21%, the lowest level ever
recorded for the first five months of any year. Shootings are down
nearly 6% with 247 total incidents, surpassing the previous record set
last year — and the number of people shot in these incidents is down
over 7%.
The NYPD attributes driving down violent crime to their continued
precision policing, taking guns off the streets, as well as targeting
gangs. So far this year, NYPD detectives have carried out 20
gang-related takedowns, and seized nearly 2,000 guns.
With summer approaching, a time of year when crime historically spikes,
the NYPD says to further mitigate violent crime and shootings across the
city, the department launched its Summer Violence Reduction Plan last
month.
About 3,800 officers will be deployed on nightly foot posts
across 72 high-crime zones in 40 precincts.

LA's Missing Crime Data
L.A.’s blurry crime picture
Crime is down in the city, but
missing data leaves many questions
In an election year, crime is usually front and center. But in this
year’s mayoral campaign the issue has barely broken through. In part,
that might be because data indicates the city is safer than it was a
year ago.
That’s the good news. The bad news? There is a drought of detailed
crime statistics in Los Angeles. That’s because for the past 26
months the Los Angeles Police Department has failed to publish accurate
crime data.
The crime data began to go offline in March 2024 for what was
supposed to be a six-month hiatus while the LAPD migrated to a new
records management system. Yet, almost two years beyond the original
deadline, there is no resolution.
Reported crime is down on a year-to-year basis in every major
category, including a 31% drop in burglaries. Between 2010 and 2015,
overall crime decreased slightly each year in Los Angeles. Then, in 2016
there was a spike. Other major U.S. cities saw a similar bump that year.
After that, it declined steadily through 2019. Then COVID hit.
Robberies are also below pre-COVID levels, down 25% last year
compared with 2019. Because of the way Compstat aggregates data, it’s
not clear how many of those incidents involved firearms. Numbers this
year are also trending down.

Industry Support for CORCA Continues
to Grow
ATA Joins Coalition Letter Urging Senate Action on Combating Organized
Retail Crime Act
The American Trucking Associations today delivered a coalition letter to
the U.S. Senate, urging swift action to advance the Combating Organized
Retail Crime Act (CORCA). Signed by 191 businesses and associations
representing a wide range of industries—including the Association of
American Railroads and the Retail Industry Leaders Association—the
letter underscores the urgent need for federal leadership in addressing
the escalating threat of cargo theft.
Last month, the House of Representatives overwhelmingly passed CORCA
with strong bipartisan support, sending a clear message about the
importance of protecting frontline transportation workers, retailers,
consumers, and communities. Now, industry leaders are calling on the
Senate to build on this momentum and advance the legislation to the
President’s desk.
“[O]rganized retail and supply chain crime requires a federal response,
as it is being driven by coordinated, multi-state criminal networks.
These are not isolated incidents, and current enforcement tools are not
keeping pace with the scale and sophistication of these operations,” the
coalition wrote. “The House’s overwhelming bipartisan vote, following
unanimous approval in the House Judiciary Committee, demonstrates that
Congress can come together to address this growing threat to public
safety, workers, and commerce. We respectfully urge Senate leadership
to build on this momentum by advancing CORCA for timely consideration
and passage in the Senate.”

AI to Elevate Retail Employees, Not
Eliminate Them
Costco CEO Ron Vachris: ‘I don’t see AI making choices’ for the retailer
The chief executive staunchly
believes that human employees are Costco’s biggest competitive edge.
He’s using AI to elevate them, not eliminate them.
There is undeniable tension between employees who fear AI will take
their jobs and CEOs who are wildly optimistic that AI will change their
businesses for good. As executives name AI as one of many reasons
for mass layoffs, Costco’s CEO Ron Vachris views AI as a supplement to
human value.
Two weeks ago, Vachris spoke at the Economic Club of Chicago about
how AI is—and isn’t—changing Costco’s workforce of 341,000.
Costco has used AI in many parts of the business, and has seen an
increase in sales in some of its departments, like in the pharmacy
sector.
“AI has been extremely good for our company in an assistive nature,”
Vachris said. “What we found is, it has worked very well, complementing
our employees and the systems that we put in place in the pharmacy, in
our gas stations, and in the accounting department that we have. And
also in some of our IT. It was writing some code.”
In Vachris’s eyes, the tech serves to empower Costco employees rather
than replace them.
“Everyone that we put in place has enhanced the business,” Vachris said.
“We’ve not displaced people because now the business is growing at a
faster rate. But those employees that were doing those tasks before have
now elevated up to more of a forward-thinking role.”
Some of the decision-making at Costco will never be outsourced to
artificial intelligence, Vachris added.

Lone Worker Risks
Rethinking Emergency Management for Lone Workers
When disaster strikes, workers must
know how to stay safe. That can be even more difficult for those who are
working alone.
Traditional emergency response management just doesn’t cut it for
lone workers, who may be injured or distressed yet still need to
administer their own rescue or treatment. Lone workers require
additional training, preparations and technology to ensure they are
safe—no matter what.
Lone workers perform essential tasks every day across nearly all
industries, including utilities, healthcare, security and social
services, and they are not limited to people in rural environments. A
lone worker is defined as any employee who performs work by themselves
or without direct supervision in circumstances where help is not easily
available in an emergency.
According to the National Safety Council, there are an estimated 53
million lone workers in the United States, Canada and Europe—and
that number is expected to increase in the coming years, thanks to
advances in automation and organizations streamlining their workflows
and staffing models.
The workers are more at risk of disasters, which can be categorized
as either internal, facility-based incidents (e.g., power outages,
cyberattacks or falls) or external events (e.g., transportation
accidents, industrial incidents and natural disasters). These employees
are at higher risk because they may lack similar access to emergency
resources when they need them during an emergency.

Store Revamps Pay Off for Macy's
Macy’s revamped half its stores and customers followed
As it improves merchandising and
customer experience at 200-plus stores, some analysts now see the
department store taking share from weaker rivals.
Macy’s is not too worried about the economic backdrop,
increasingly tenuous due to rising fuel prices and falling consumer
confidence. Two-thirds of consumers say they’ve cut back spending due to
inflation and sentiment has grown more pessimistic.
Investment in customer service and merchandising improvements paid
off at 200 Macy’s stores, about half its fleet, where comps rose
2.4%; overall Macy’s comps rose 1.6%. At Bloomingdale’s comps rose 10.2%
– its seventh straight gain – and at Bluemercury 6.4%.
The department store caters largely to middle- to high-income
households, which are somewhat shielded from rising costs, but
Macy’s Inc. CEO Tony Spring said there is another reason why customers
showed up in Q1.
“We found that when the product and the experience are differentiated
and compelling, engagement and spend increase,” he told analysts
Wednesday. “During the quarter our customer appreciated the assortments,
marketing, and events that supported key holidays, including Valentine’s
Day, Presidents Day and Easter.”

Pride Month & Retail
Consumers Still Value Pride Month Participation — How Can Brands Do So
More Authentically?
The most recent research detailed by Omnisend’s Povilas Sabaliauskas
indicates that corporate LGBTQ+ engagement is pulling back, with a
survey of consumers dovetailing with Gravity Research data to suggest as
much. Per Gravity Research, 39% of companies cut their Pride Month
engagement in 2025, versus just 9% who did so in 2024 — and on the
Omnisend side, 37% of American shoppers noticed this trend happening
more recently, with 58%-67% of LGBTQ+ consumers globally saying the
same.
Sabaliauskas also highlighted the most important factor pulled out of
the findings: For Pride Month backers, authenticity was of the utmost
importance.

The most valuable thing your LP team produces
isn't a closed case. It's the reasoning behind it — and
it's disappearing.
Every loss prevention team generates enormous amounts of
investigation context: why a transaction was flagged,
what an analyst learned on a call to the store, why a
case was or wasn't escalated. The trouble is where that
context lives: in email threads, spreadsheets, and
individual analysts' memory. When a pattern resurfaces
months later, the institutional knowledge that would
resolve it faster is often gone, lost to turnover and
time.
With shoplifting incidents up 18% year over year and
LP/AP teams stretched thin, that knowledge has never
been more valuable — or easier to lose.
We wrote about the knowledge problem in LP
investigations, why it's getting worse, and what it
looks like to put investigation context where the data
lives.

AI Reshapes Retail Cybersecurity
Strategies
How AI Is Changing the Retail
Cybersecurity Landscape
By
the D&D Daily staff
Artificial intelligence is rapidly reshaping how retailers approach
cybersecurity, offering new tools to detect threats, automate
responses and strengthen defenses across increasingly complex digital
environments.
Retailers continue to face a wide range of cyber risks, including
phishing attacks, ransomware, credential theft and payment fraud. At the
same time, many organizations are managing growing volumes of customer,
employee and operational data across stores, distribution centers and
e-commerce platforms. AI is emerging as one way to help security
teams identify suspicious activity more quickly and efficiently.
Many cybersecurity platforms now use AI and machine learning to
analyze network traffic, user behavior and system activity in real time.
By establishing a baseline of normal activity, these tools can help
identify unusual patterns that may indicate a security incident. In some
cases, AI-powered systems can automatically isolate affected devices,
flag compromised accounts or prioritize alerts for investigation.
Retailers are also using AI to improve fraud detection. Advanced
analytics can help identify unusual transaction patterns, account
takeover attempts and other indicators of potential fraud before losses
occur. This can be particularly valuable as online shopping continues to
grow and cybercriminals adopt increasingly sophisticated tactics.
However, AI is not only benefiting defenders. Cybercriminals are also
leveraging AI to create more convincing phishing emails, automate
attacks and identify potential vulnerabilities at greater speed. As a
result, security experts emphasize that AI should be viewed as one
component of a broader cybersecurity strategy rather than a standalone
solution.
Employee awareness, strong access controls, software updates and
incident response planning remain critical elements of cyber
resilience. Organizations must also evaluate the security and governance
risks associated with deploying AI tools within their own operations.
As cyber threats continue to evolve, retailers are increasingly
exploring how AI can help strengthen security programs while
improving visibility into emerging risks. The technology's role in
retail cybersecurity is expected to expand as both opportunities and
challenges continue to develop.

CIO & CISO Partnerships
Turning tension into collaboration: How CIOs and CISOs can lead together
If properly managed and channeled,
age-old friction between IT and cybersecurity can create a more
resilient organization.
The relationship between the CIO and the CISO has long been defined
by friction. It is often framed as a structural conflict, with CIOs
pushing for speed, scale and innovation and CISOs pulling toward
control, constraint and cyber risk reduction.
In practice, this tension is real. But the problem is not that it
exists: the problem is how it is managed.
For many organizations, this dynamic has drifted into something more
corrosive. Security leaders report feeling pressure to downplay risk,
while IT leaders often are perceived as shifting accountability
rather than owning it.
These patterns do not just create internal dysfunction. They also
expose the enterprise to unnecessary cyber risk, particularly at a time
when technology adoption is accelerating and the consequences of
misalignment are more immediate and visible.
The instinct in these situations is often to reduce tension, smooth over
disagreements and create harmony. That’s understandable, but it’s also
misguided. Cybersecurity is a control function and meant to introduce
friction. When there is no tension, it is usually because difficult
questions are not being asked or because risk is being accepted
implicitly rather than deliberately. The goal is not to eliminate
tension; it’s to make it constructive.

Retailers Not Keeping Up As AI
Reshapes Commerce
Study Finds AI Reshaping Commerce Faster Than Retailers Can Adapt
The “Global
Digital Shopping Index: The AI-Powered Shopper Has Arrived”
shows that retail is moving into a new phase. Consumers are no longer
just shopping online or using their phones to check prices. They are
using mobile devices across the full shopping journey, from product
research to checkout, and they are beginning to use AI as a shopping
tool. That shift is changing what consumers expect from merchants and
how merchants need to approach discovery, payments and the customer
experience.
The report finds that consumers now average 55 digital shopping days
per month, up from 51 in 2024. That means shoppers are browsing,
buying, comparing, checking inventory and using digital tools nearly
every day. The most active digital shoppers also buy far more often.
Consumers who digital window shop more than once a week buy about three
times more often across remote shopping, pickup and digitally-assisted
in-store shopping.
AI is also becoming part of mainstream shopping. Nearly half of
online shoppers used AI during their latest purchase journey. ChatGPT
has quickly become a major product research tool, with usage rising from
2% to 30% in two years. Consumers are also looking ahead: 64% expect to
use AI shopping agents within two years, especially for tasks such as
comparing products, managing loyalty programs and handling returns.
The report also shows a widening gap between what shoppers want and
what many merchants offer. Consumers want features that make
shopping easier and more reliable, including price matching, mobile
product locators, digital coupons and preferred payment options. Yet
merchants are slowing their investments in digital features at the same
time that shoppers are raising expectations. The risk is especially high
with millennials, parents and high-income consumers, who are among the
most active and valuable digital shoppers.

Walmart Toppled by Amazon
Amazon overthrows Walmart to become Fortune 500’s top company — ending
superstore’s 13-year reign at the top
Amazon has overtaken Walmart to claim the No. 1 spot on the Fortune
500, ending the retailer’s 13-year run at the top of the annual
ranking of America’s biggest companies by revenue.
The latest list, based on fiscal 2025 revenue, puts Amazon in the top
spot, followed by Walmart and UnitedHealth Group. The shakeup
marks the first time since 2013 that Walmart has not held the No. 1
position on the Fortune 500.
Amazon generated roughly $717 billion in revenue during the most
recent reporting period, narrowly surpassing Walmart’s $713 billion.
UnitedHealth Group rounded out the top three with $447.6 billion in
revenue.

Tucson, AZ: Thieves steal around $100,000 in rare trading cards from
Tucson store
Two thieves stole an estimated $100,000 worth of rare trading cards from
a Tucson store early Monday, June 1. The theft took mere minutes and hit
Showtime Cards, located near Speedway and Craycroft, hard. Security
cameras captured the criminals breaking display cases, stuffing bags
with sealed boxes, and leaving through a door they broke. Store owner
George Mares received an alert and immediately called the police. “It’s
crazy, it’s surreal,” Mares said. “You’re scared, you’re frustrated,
you’re pissed. You want to get there immediately.” When Mares arrived,
he saw the front door shattered. While it was boarded up by Tuesday, a
display case was still damaged and had shards of glass on the trading
cards left behind. The stolen cards were some of the rarest the store
had to offer, with each case worth between $5,000 and $7,000. The
thieves also jumped high to reach the top shelf, stealing cases worth
$6,000 to $10,000. “These (cards) are ‘sit over time.’ The longer they
are, the more their value goes up,” Mares said. “These cards are a
decade old (and some of) the rarest cards, so I mean some of them are
valued at $5,000 a box,” Mares said. Mares said law enforcement told him
the incident could be part of a string of thefts across Arizona. A
Phoenix detective told him the burglary is similar to others seen in the
Valley.

Natick, MA: Larceny arrests on rise in Natick as shoplifting groups
target retailers
Groups of thieves are working in teams to rob Natick Mall retailers,
police say. Some travel from Queens, the Bronx, Hartford and other
locales to loot stores, according to police records. Sometimes donning
masks and equipped with aluminum-lined “boost bags,” where stolen goods
can secretly be stashed without setting off security warnings or devices
enabling them to disable anti-theft devices, the thieves distract store
employees or customers while a partner pilfers the merchandise and the
team dashes for the door, said Natick Police Chief James Hicks said. The
stores’ proximity to the Massachusetts Turnpike makes them a convenient
target and an easy getaway. “When they come in, with three to four to
distract, the other three fill their pockets and the next thing you know
they’re down the Pike,” Hicks said. Natick police have arrested dozens
of organized retail thieves in the past three years, charging even more
with larceny and shoplifting, department records show. While thefts have
occurred at Natick businesses for years, including by orchestrated
groups, the steady recurrence of the retail thefts statewide has law
enforcement, elected officials, retailers, community leaders and other
stakeholders grappling with ways to halt the crimes. Statewide, arrests
for shoplifting have surged more than 73% between 2023 and 2025,
according to detailed arrest data police must provide monthly to the
state Executive Office of Public Safety and Security.

Columbia, SC: Columbia Police arrest shooting suspect after chase inside Walmart
A Walmart store on Garners Ferry Road in Columbia was briefly evacuated
Wednesday morning after a shooting suspect led officers on a chase inside the
store before being taken into custody, according to Columbia Police. Police say
the suspect, Qu’Mond Seawright, was wanted in connection with a shooting that
happened Monday morning, June 1, 2026, at a home in the 200 block of Saskatoon
Drive in Columbia. Investigators say no one was injured in the incident, but
Seawright was seen firing shots at the location and is also accused of
assaulting a person at the scene. According to police, Seawright left the area
after the incident and remained a wanted suspect until Wednesday, when fugitive
investigators located him at the Walmart on Garners Ferry Road. Officers say
when they attempted to make contact with him, Seawright ran through the parking
lot and into the store. That led to a brief foot chase inside the Walmart before
he was arrested.

Pilots work best when you know what you’re proving.
Launching a pilot without clear goals is
like baking a cake without a recipe—you’ll get something, but good luck
repeating it. Define success up front: Is it reducing shrink? Cutting
response times? Improving associate adoption? If your only takeaway is
“well, it kinda worked,” don’t expect anyone to fund the sequel.
