at stores that have a “do not interfere with shoplifters” policy, are people able to just walk in, take whatever they want, and leave without paying; or are there repercussions at some point?

Like most have said, police can get involved. I worked best buy for a bit and would cover loss prevention when they took their lunches. Those cameras are pretty good, can zoom in far. It’s actually pretty easy to see what customers are acting weird or suspicious, if a customer stages a product somewhere to make it easier to take later. We all had walkies so we could communicate who to look out for, or if we seen someone hide product. Somebody would then follow them, talk to them more, and then if they tried ti leave without paying, we would call police on them.
