Man Grabs Merchandise From Wal-Mart, Takes It Into Dressing Room, Masturbates On It

<snip>

It's illegal to walk into a department store, grab women's clothing and other merchandise, masturbate on it all and then leave.

It might just be dumb to go back afterward.

That's how police ended up finding and charging 20-year-old Joseph Eric Renno with open lewdness last week.

According to court records:

Renno, of the 300 block of W. Reliance Road in Franconia Township, was spotted taking magazines and clothes into a dressing room at the Wal-Mart off Route 309 in Richland Township on March 1.

The store's loss prevention officer suspected he might be trying to steal things when he walked out of the dressing room a bit later without the merchandise.

She went to check the dressing room and found the magazines and a man's shirt, plus panties and a bra. She also found a thick substance she believed to be semen on the items and the dressing room mirror.

The merchandise, valued at $36, was destroyed except for the shirt, which police kept as evidence.

Another Wal-Mart employee told police the man frequented the store; she knew him as ''Eric.'' Employees promised to call police if the man returned.

He did last Friday.

Police went to the Wal-Mart when employees called, found Renno and took him to headquarters for questioning. He admitted masturbating on the mirror and the merchandise, police said.

:rofl:

He got caught.

:rofl:

A little less messy.

It was a real problem in the retail store I used to work in, which had beautiful bathrooms in the back of the store. I guess they couldn't be troubled to walk that far.

:puke:

There was an infamous regular browser she referred to as the "Poo Lady." They'd see her walk down an aisle and give her pant leg a shake, leaving a trail of turd(s) behind.

My mom worked in the infants/toddlers section and it was also not uncommon that parents would let their kids go to the bathroom in potty seats on display when nobody was looking.

So I'm not surprised to hear that people go in dressing rooms too. Disgusting but hardly surprising.

We discontinued the clothing after a few months because the women's dressing room was being used as a toilet by customers.

It makes it sound like there's a law on the books stating that. Which I doubt that there is. After all, what lawmaker would even think of this as being something someone would do. :rofl:

And he was charged with "open lewdness." But if he shut the door of the dressing room, his lewdness wasn't exactly in the open. :rofl:

I know, it's just semantics, but for me it just added some additional humor to the story. Though I suppose it's not funny to whoever had to clean up the dressing room. :rofl:

After the "incident" I was always afraid to go down the flower aisle... :scared:

I was shopping with my Mom and I needed to try on a shirt. So I look around incredibly overstocked uni-sex type department store (forgot the name) and I see a dressing room. Not thinking twice about where it is I just walk in and start changing.

I hear over the PA "Women's department code 10 code 10"

I walk out to 5 staff members looking at me. It was a women's changing room. They HAD doors it's not like I could see anything.

:shrug:

does the state of VA know they are employing a sex offender? :D

:silly:

low wages

customers are jerk offs *literally

Why, oh why did he have to come again? :rofl:

Walmart selling pornos? No way! I've even asked the manager at mine and no, they don't allow that... (But they do sell KY, *ahem*...)
