Shoplifters' choice: public humiliation? Or juvenile detention

Shoplifters caught at a Whatcom County store have two choices: a ride in a police car or public humiliation. If they chose the latter, they have to wear a T-shirt that announces to everyone they got caught stealing...

The owner of the 123-year-old Custer Country Store, Nicole Perry, ...did something no one before her had ever tried: she wanted to send young shoplifters a strong message, without sending them to juvenile detention.

(W)hen Nicole catches a kid stealing, she makes their parents an offer. Their kid can get picked up by police and go through the courts, or they can work off a $200 fine in the store. There's just one catch: The kid must work 26 hours wearing a bright orange T-shirt that reads, "I stole from the Custer Country Store." (video)
