Sue's life after college did not go as everyone expected. She had always been into fashion and loved shopping. That love of shopping soon turned into an addiction. One day, she went to a department store, spent some time shopping, and eventually filled a large, empty chandelier box with approximately $900 worth of clothing. When she went to the check-out counter, the cashier indicated that he wanted to look inside the box before accepting Sue's payment for the chandelier. Sue then pushed the cart back into the isles and departed from the premises. Sue was convicted of grand larceny by the trial court. On appeal, Sue argued that because she had not actually removed any goods from the store, she had not committed larceny. Is she correct? Did Sue performed the criminal act of unlawfully removing the goods?
