Also, the fact that it was illegal is likely why she attempted it in the first place. With petty crimes like shoplifting, some people enjoy the thrill of breaking the law and escaping any consequences; at the end of the day, no-one is seriously hurt and, at worst, the vendor being stolen from is out a couple of bucks in profit. And if they should happen to get caught, they can use the fact that it was non-violent as leverage for a lighter sentence.
