In this episode of Retail’s Most Wanted, we look at a framework used to understand and prevent retail crime. Our guest is Dr. Reid Hayes, who serves as director of the Loss Prevention Research Council. With over 30 years of experience in law enforcement, retail, and research, Dr. Hayes shares key strategies for reducing theft, fraud, and violence in the retail industry.

In the premiere episode of Retail’s Most Wanted, Utah Attorney General Sean Reyes talks about the growing issue of organized retail crime, his first-in-the-nation task force to combat it and how ORC funds broader criminal enterprises. Reyes is joined by retail security expert, Mike Combs, recently retired as head of asset protection at Home Depot, who explains how criminals running out of stores with bundles of merchandise aren’t always getting away with a crime. Marty Carpenter and Dave Studdert also look at some recent ORC headlines.
