    Default When Can A Security Guard Approach You For Suspicion Of Shoplifting

    Does a security guard or whoever at a retail store have to have solid proof that you were shoplifting?
    Solid proof meaning video
    Are they allowed to appoarch you if they do not have video or solid proof that you were shoplifting?

    WHy is video needed for solid proof? If they witness it with thier own two eyes, or someone else does, (depending on company) it is as good as on tape.

    I don't know who you have been talking to but don't use that defense in court. If Loss Prevention (security) sees you select conceal and attempt to exit store without paying for selected item(s) thats proof! Fact you have merchandise "suspected" of shoplifting on your person only proves that suspicion.
