Proposed law targets retail theft sprees as organized crime
COLUMBUS — Ohio is looking at treating escalating and increasingly violent retail theft sprees as organized crime with a statewide law enforcement task force and stronger criminal penalties. Now in the Senate, a House-passed bill would create the task force to collaborate with the state attorney general's office and the Ohio Organized Crime Commission to assist law enforcement and prosecutors and to share information in real time across jurisdictions. “[Organized retail crime] causes billions of dollars in losses annually,” Rep. Haraz Ghanbari (R., Perrysburg), sponsor of House Bill 366, told his House colleagues. “ORC involves planned large-scale operations targeting retailers across multiple jurisdictions. The National Retail Federation survey shows a 67 percent increase in organized retail crime incidents reported by loss prevention executives.” “ORC disrupts businesses, and it also jeopardizes the safety of consumers and employees,” he said. “Many retailers across Ohio have reduced operating hours or they have closed their stores in some instances due to increased criminal activity. The primary concern in doing so is the escalation of violence associated with these ORC activities.”
