DALLAS (WBAP/KLIF) Dallas County District Attorney Clarifies New Theft Policy
Dallas County District Attorney John Creuzot is clarifying his new policy not to prosecute theft of what he called “necessary items” under $750.
Creuzot told WBAP’s ‘Rick Roberts Show’ Tuesday that the policy only applies to people stealing to survive, not someone who plans to re-sell stolen items.
“If the individual is committing the crime because they are poor or they are hungry then we are going to exercise our prosecutorial discretion not to prosecute that case,” Creuzot said.
Creuzot said in hindsight the policy should have referred to thefts of “personal consumption” opposed to “necessity.”
