If the pharmacist had been smart he/she would have filled a narcotics bottle with laxatives. The perp would not have noticed until it was too late.

Great idea 10:18. Add a special bottle with a GPS chip in it. The police would know exactly which bathroom he was sitting in.

Wow! That was incredibly easy for him to obtain painkillers. Why buy on the street, when you can just walk in to a pharmacy and demand them? He should have tried that in Princess Anne. I heard the pharmacist has been target practicing.

10:18 No way. Addicts know exactly what they are looking for.

I have a cell phone - seven years old - that takes clearer pictures that those shown.
Why in hell don't these stores (and banks) install some hi-def photo/video equipment?
How about a license reader in the parking lot, too?
(I know some of you will bring up the "privacy" issue. Face it, there not a move you can make in today's world without being photographed somewhere. So they may as well make it clearer.)!

He's wearing a hospital ID it looks like. Maybe a recent discharge.
