The U.S. Crime Surge
The Retail Impact
ORC Legislation Watch
From the Street to the Statehouse:
2025’s Top Retail Crime Bills
Lawmakers ramp up legislative
efforts to combat organized retail theft
By
the D&D Daily staff
As organized retail crime (ORC) continues to impact retailers across the
country, lawmakers at both the state and federal levels are stepping up
legislative efforts in 2025 aimed at curbing the trend.
This year, more than a dozen states have introduced or passed
legislation increasing penalties for coordinated theft rings, expanding
definitions of ORC, and enhancing law enforcement coordination. In
California, a newly signed law restores harsher penalties for serial
retail theft after public pressure over smash-and-grab incidents. In
Florida, a measure now makes it easier to prosecute those who
coordinate thefts across multiple counties — a key tactic of modern
retail crime syndicates.
Meanwhile, Texas, Arizona, and Illinois are pursuing bills that
require online marketplaces to verify third-party sellers more
aggressively, hoping to crack down on the digital resale of stolen
goods. These proposals build on the federal INFORM Consumers Act, with
states aiming to go a step further in enforcement.
At the federal level, the bipartisan Combating Organized Retail Crime
Act remains a focus for national retailers and law enforcement
agencies. The bill would create a centralized coordination center under
Homeland Security to connect retailers, local law enforcement and
federal agencies in tracking, investigating, and prosecuting ORC
activity. Supporters say the measure would streamline case-building
against multi-state theft operations, but it has yet to advance out of
committee.
Industry groups like the National Retail Federation (NRF) and the
Retail Industry Leaders Association (RILA) continue to advocate for
more consistent definitions of ORC across jurisdictions, warning that
patchwork laws make enforcement difficult.
As theft methods evolve, so do the legislative tools. Retailers are
watching closely — not just for policy shifts, but for the signal these
bills send: that lawmakers are beginning to treat organized retail crime
as more than just a store-level issue, but as a public safety and
economic threat.
Store Employees Afraid to Work Alone
Amid Crime Surge
UK: Co-op workers say lone shifts put safety at risk amid shoplifting
surge
Co-op employees have raised serious safety concerns over the
supermarket’s increasing use of lone working in stores, warning that
staffing levels are leaving workers vulnerable to threats and abuse.
Despite a surge in shoplifting incidents, staff report being left
alone to handle multiple tasks including packing online orders,
managing self-checkouts, tills, and floor duties.
According to the Guardian, in some smaller outlets, lone working is
becoming the norm, while in larger stores employees can be isolated
when colleagues take breaks or manage deliveries.
The issue has come into sharper focus as Co-op expands its Project
Lunar scheme, which was trialled last year in five stores and involves
having only one member of staff on duty in quieter locations. The
rollout will extend to 60 branches this year.
This comes in addition to existing “one-on-one” staffing models in many
stores, where one worker handles shelf stocking or stockroom tasks while
another runs the till, sometimes leaving only a single public-facing
employee on site. The retailer has not confirmed the exact number of
stores using these practices.
Workers have shared experiences of abuse from shoplifters. One
staff member in south London recounted being threatened with violence,
including threats with Stanley knives and screwdrivers. “Shoplifters
threaten to stab staff or, as I was told by one disgusting female, that
she would smash my face in,” she told the Guardian.
Another employee described feeling “very unsafe” working in pairs,
as breaks could leave one person alone on the shop floor. “You can be
alone on the shop floor when one of you goes for a break and I always
feel scared,” she said.

Cracking Down on Ice Cream ORC?
CVS shopper heads to freezer aisle for some ice cream. Then she finds it
locked up
A CVS shopper is going viral for calling out an unlikely item now
under lock and key: ice cream.
TikTok user @queendotugc, who lives in Jacksonville, Florida, said she
was stunned to find that grabbing a pint at her local CVS wasn’t as easy
as opening a freezer door. Instead, she had to push a “customer
service” button to summon an employee, who unlocked the case after
confirming her selection.
Turns out, this isn’t just a Florida thing—and it’s not unique to CVS.
Back in August 2023, NPR reported on a New York City grocer who slapped
lid locks on individual pints of ice cream. This made them impossible to
open without employee help, and helped crack down on theft. With
pints running $5 to $6 apiece, the grocer said they’d become easy
targets for grab-and-go crime.
A month earlier, Outkick reported that grocery stores across New York
had started locking up ice cream amid a spike in shoplifting and petty
crime. Not because crooks were desperate for cookies and cream, but
because they could swipe it without consequence.
“To help maintain the lowest possible cost, a protective lock has
been placed on some units of ice cream,” read a sign at Fairway
Market. The store had outfitted some cartons with bolts or locking
devices that only staff could remove.

In-Store Returns are Crushing
Retailers
Survey Research Shows Influx of Shoppers Buying Online, Returning
In-Store is Crushing Many Retailers
Only 17 percent of shoppers spend
more money in-store following a return and 43 percent simply return the
item and walk out
A new survey shows the increasingly growing volume of orders being
bought online and returned to stores is crushing many retailers, as
they struggle to keep up with new costs and new workloads from in-store
returns processing. Meanwhile, retailers aren’t capitalizing on the
theoretical upside of returns to ring up more sales in the store – a
veritable lose-lose proposition.
As ecommerce makes shopping easier than ever before, it’s creating an
unintended influx of product returns; the average return rate for
online transactions is three times higher than the return rate for
in-store purchases.
While a majority of retailers encourage online shoppers to process
returns in-store, 43 percent admit handling online order returns
in-store is a top challenge, and that increased volume of online
order returns to stores has created new costs. More than 1 in 5
retailers say their stores were not designed for today’s more advanced
customer service functions (order pickup, online returns, etc.). And 41
percent report omnichannel fulfillment and returns require new in-store
sales rep roles and workflows.
Additionally, the research reveals retailers vastly overestimate the
potential upside of in-store returns. While 72 percent of retailers
believe this creates opportunities to drive new sales, only 17
percent of shoppers end up spending more money following a return
in-store. And the vast majority of those surveyed – 43 percent – simply
return the item and walk out.
As retailers prepare for the upcoming holiday shopping season and a
surge of returns – often referred to as “Returnuary” – they must
modernize in-store infrastructure to efficiently process returns.

Mark
Doyle Talks --- Mid-Year – Time to Review
It’s summer, time to relax, take a few days off, and maybe go on that
well-earned and needed vacation. But before you do, be sure to remind
your people to always stay vigilant and alert as shrink is a 365 day a
year job and unfortunately thieves never seem to take time off!
This is also a good time to perform a mid-year review of LP & Safety
Programs to see if you are on-track with your shrink and safety goals
and overall compliance is meeting or exceeding your expectations. Review
cycle count results during the year, any mid-year shrink results, and
compliance to audits to identify if any changes may be needed to your
programs before rolling into the busy holiday season. Have a great
Summer, and we’ll catch-up this Fall before the holiday season is upon
us.
Stats, Methods, Prevention - - - Employee Theft in Retail
By Mark R. Doyle
Employee theft is a significant issue in retail, contributing to a large
portion of shrinkage. Employees know the company’s policies and
procedures, and will bide their time waiting for a convenient
opportunity to commit their thefts. In the U.S. alone, on
average employee theft accounts for approximately 33-35% of total retail
shrinkage,
however by company that figure could be much higher. While external
theft (such as shoplifting) also plays a role, internal theft is
particularly damaging because it erodes trust and the climate of honesty
within a company.

Worker Risks Rise with the Temps
Occupational Heat Safety Standards in the United States
Find out what occupational heat
standards exist, or are under development, federally and in your state.
Extreme
heat poses a range of potentially debilitating or deadly threats to
workers. Although experts have been recommending commonsense
criteria for a standard to the Occupational Safety and Health
Administration for most of its 50-year history, many millions of
workers in America lack adequate protection from heat.
Unions, health professionals, environmental groups, state and federal
legislators, and others around the country have been pushing for that to
change. Since just 2020, advocates have successfully called for new
heat protections in states such as Colorado, and heat rulemakings both
federally and in states such as Maryland and Oregon.
There’s more to come, and not a moment too soon. Every summer is
becoming more dangerous for workers as average temperatures increase and
extreme heat events become longer, more frequent, and more severe.
This map provides national and state snapshots of existing
occupational heat standards, heat standards under development, and
active heat standard legislation. Click on a state to view an
estimate of the number of workers at highest risk of heat-related harms,
the status of existing or proposed standards, the general type of
workers covered, and a link to more information.

Communicating Cybersecurity to the
C-Suite
How CISOs can justify security investments in financial terms
In this Help Net Security interview, John Verry, Managing Director at
CBIZ, discusses how insurers and financial risk professionals evaluate
cybersecurity maturity through different lenses. He also shows how
framing cyber risk in business terms can strengthen investment cases and
elevate cybersecurity as a strategic driver.
What should CISOs know about how insurers and
financial risk professionals are evaluating cybersecurity maturity?
Cybersecurity maturity is viewed differently depending on the
stakeholder, and effective programs must account for these varying
perspectives. Financial risk professionals approach it through an
Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) lens, evaluating how well cyber risks
are identified, mitigated, and aligned to financial, operational, and
regulatory impacts. On the other hand, cyber liability insurers assess
maturity based on exposure to cybersecurity events, using
self-assessments, third party assessments, external scans, document
reviews, and sometimes interviews to estimate the likelihood and cost of
an incident.
The good news: aligning your program with a trusted, open framework
like ISO 27001 or the NIST Cybersecurity Framework helps bridge these
perspectives. It enables you to demonstrate a proactive security
posture, reduce ERM-related concerns, and potentially qualify for
insurance incentives — all while speaking a common language that
resonates across risk, security, and executive stakeholders.
What are the most effective ways CISOs can
communicate cybersecurity risks in financial or business terms to
non-technical executives?
A common challenge we see is the absence of a formal ERM program, or the
fragmentation of risk functions, where enterprise, cybersecurity, and
third-party risks are evaluated using different impact criteria. This
lack of alignment makes it difficult for CISOs to communicate
effectively with the C-suite and board. Standardizing risk programs
and using consistent impact criteria enables clearer risk comparisons,
shared understanding, and more strategic decision-making.
This challenge is further exacerbated by the rise of AI-specific
regulations and frameworks, including the NIST AI Risk Management
Framework, the EU AI Act, the NYC Bias Audit Law, and the Colorado
Artificial Intelligence Act. AI does not fit neatly into a single risk
category; it cuts across enterprise, cyber, and third-party domains. As
a result, building an effective AI Risk Management program requires a
coordinated, cross-functional approach that integrates with the broader
ERM strategy.

What's Fueling the Decline in Cyber
Insurance Premiums?
Cyber insurance premiums drop for first time, report finds
Despite a decline in both premiums
and prices, the market continues to be profitable.
Cybersecurity insurance premiums declined 2.3% year over year to
roughly $7.1 billion in 2024, according to a new report released on
Monday by credit rating agency AM Best. Meanwhile, cyber insurance
providers’ loss ratio — the proportion of premiums they use to pay out
claims — remained below 50%, indicating that the market remains
profitable.
Last year’s decrease in the premiums generated from cyber insurance
represents the first such decline since the National Association of
Insurance Commissioners began collecting data in 2015, according to
AM Best’s report. But according to the credit agency, the drop was
“driven more by pricing changes than any changes in [risk] exposure.”
Cyber insurance prices decreased by 1.6%, on average, in the second,
third, and fourth quarters of 2024, according to Council of
Insurance Agents and Brokers data that AM Best cited.
“That the premium decrease is close to the pricing decrease indicates
that the demand for cyber insurance is steady,” AM Best’s report
said.
Another possible explanation, according to the company: Some large
businesses may be creating their own subsidiary, aka captive, insurance
companies and using those to manage their cyber-risk exposure, a
practice known as self-insurance.

Shifting Ransomware Tactics
Fewer ransomware attacks encrypting data, report finds
Hackers are increasingly performing
extortion-only attacks.
Only half of ransomware attacks on organizations this year have
involved data encryption, once the attack’s defining feature,
according to a Sophos report published on Tuesday.
Both the average ransom demand and average
ransom payment have dropped significantly over the past year
(by 34% and 50%, respectively).
Less than a third of respondents in the survey who paid a ransom said
the amount matched the attackers’ initial demand, with 53% of victims
paying less and 18% paying more.
Ransomware has remained a major threat to businesses for years, but
cybercriminals’ tactics have shifted over time. The new report
highlights one of the most significant examples of that evolution: the
decline in data encryption as part of a ransomware attack.

4,000 Small Cities Will See Faster Amazon
Deliveries
Amazon bringing faster delivery to thousands of small towns and cities
The company said it plans to bring same- or
next-day delivery to more than 4,000 smaller cities, towns and rural communities
across the country by the end of this year.
Amazon is expanding its rapid delivery machine to more rural corners of the
U.S.
The company
said Tuesday it plans to bring same- or next-day delivery to more than
4,000 smaller cities, towns and rural communities across the country “for
the first time” by the end of this year.
The move is part of
a previously announced small-town expansion that will see Amazon spend
roughly $4 billion by the end of 2026 to triple the size of its rural
delivery network.
Amazon
has made speedy delivery a cornerstone of its juggernaut e-commerce business
as it faces heightened competition from brick-and-mortar stalwarts like Walmart,
and newer entrants including Temu, Shein and TikTok Shop, which have hooked
shoppers with their ultra-discounted wares.
“This expansion goes beyond speed — it’s about transforming daily life for
rural customers, who typically live farther from brick-and-mortar retailers,
have fewer product and brand choices, and face limited delivery options when
shopping online,” Amazon said in a release.
The announcement comes as Amazon
prepares to kick off its longest-ever Prime Day. The 96-hour event will
run four days this year starting at 12:01 a.m. PT on July 8, and continuing
through July 11.

Amazon's UK Expansion
Amazon Plans to Invest Nearly $55B in UK, Expanding AI Infrastructure
Amazon (AMZN) said Tuesday it is planning to invest $54.4 billion in the U.K.
over the next three years, including an expansion of its cloud computing and
artificial intelligence infrastructure.
The tech giant also said it would build four new fulfillment centres and new
delivery stations around the country. The funds will be used to upgrade and
expand its existing network of more than 100 operations buildings in the U.K. as
well, it said.
Amazon said the investment in the U.K. will create thousands of new
permanent, full-time jobs. Those new jobs include 2,000 positions at the
fulfilment center in Hull and 2,000 jobs at another in Northampton, as well
additional positions at new sites in the East Midlands and at delivery stations
across the U.K.

Nashville, TN: Berry Hill Police search for suspects connected to gift
card scam
The Berry Hill Police Department is asking for the public’s assistance
in finding two suspects who made off with thousands of dollars in what
they’re calling a “Cash App Scheme.” According to Sgt. Russo with the
BHPD, the suspects entered the Walgreens on 8th Avenue South around 7:15
p.m. on June 9. Surveillance footage reportedly showed the two men go to
the gift cards and then bring at least 10 cards to the store’s counter.
Then, the suspects show the clerk a QR code and request that the clerk
put $250 on each card, totaling $2,500. Police added that the store was
busy and the cashier was relatively inexperienced.

Franklin, TN: Gun Store Burglaries in Middle Tennessee: Franklin Shop
Latest Target
Another gun store in Middle Tennessee has fallen victim to a
smash-and-grab burglary, marking a disturbing pattern of firearm thefts
across the region. This time, Outpost Armory on Lakeview Drive in
Franklin was the target. Just after 3:00 a.m. on Wednesday, June 18,
2025, Franklin Police say two masked burglars broke into the shop and
stole two firearms. Surveillance footage shows the suspects quickly
exiting the store and fleeing the scene with a third individual,
believed to be the getaway driver. Authorities say the trio escaped in a
red Hyundai Sonata or Elantra. This burglary is just the latest in a
growing series of gun store break-ins across Middle Tennessee. In June
2024, a smash-and-grab at Bullseye Pawn and Gun in Murfreesboro shocked
the community. In that incident, thieves used a stolen vehicle to crash
into the shop near South Church Street, making off with stolen firearms.
Only a month later, Echo Three Armory in Chapel Hill suffered a similar
attack. Thieves again used a stolen car to ram through the storefront,
despite the owner’s security upgrades. That marked the fourth gun store
burglary within a 40-day window. The targeted shop sold firearms, ammo,
and gun repair supplies — making it a high-value target for organized
theft. Last year in Smyrna, Southern Bunker reported a devastating loss
of more than $50,000 in inventory after burglars drove a vehicle through
their shop wall and display windows. In Gallatin, two teenagers rammed a
stolen Hyundai Elantra through Sumner Gun & Supply, making off with a
semi-automatic rifle and a shotgun. Authorities now believe these
break-ins may be linked.

Lincoln County, NC: Tractor Stolen from The Home Depot in Asheville
Recovered
On Friday, June 13, Lincoln County Detectives received a call from a
Home Depot Organized Retail Crime Investigator regarding the sale of
a stolen Kubota tractor at the Murphy’s Express store in Denver, North
Carolina on June 11. The Kubota tractor was stolen from a Home Depot
store in Asheville. The tractor was valued at over $19,000. After
reviewing surveillance footage from the business, investigating several
leads, and networking with law enforcement agencies in North and South
Carolina, it was determined that the Kubota tractor was still in Denver.
Through collaboration with Home Depot Retail Theft Investigators, the
stolen Kubota tractor was recovered. The parties responsible are still
under investigation and charges are forthcoming.

Portage, MI: Suspect in Portage Aldi robbery arrested, linked to other Aldi
robberies across MI
A 34-year-old man accused of multiple armed robberies at Aldi stores across
Michigan, including one in Portage, has been arrested, the Portage Department of
Public Safety announced Tuesday. Kaleb Michael Shaffer was arrested in Rapid
City, South Dakota on June 4 after the Kalamazoo County Prosecutor's Office
authorized two felony counts of armed robbery against him on June 2, police
said. The first robbery happened on Dec. 10, 2024 at the Aldi on South Westnedge
Avenue near Mall Drive in Portage. According to PDPS, a "masked individual"
entered the store and asked to speak with the on-duty manager, implying that he
was armed and demanded money in a back room of the building. The suspect then
returned to the same Aldi on Jan. 18 and robbed the store in the same way again,
police said.
