Susаn wоrks аs а salespersоn at a lоcal jewelry store. The store primarily sells high-end, expensive jewelry. Although Susan has worked at the store for several months, she has not earned enough money to purchase any of the store’s jewelry. One day, while Susan was reviewing the store’s new inventory, she saw the most beautiful necklace. The necklace was adorned with various jewels and Susan immediately knew she would not be able to pay for the necklace given her meager salary. Susan decided she would simply take the necklace that night. She knew that she would be in the store alone after the store closed, and the store manager had come to trust Susan implicitly. That night, after closing, Susan took the necklace, hid it in her jacket, and left the store. When Susan returned to work the next day, no one seemed to notice that the necklace was missing. About a week later, Susan began to feel guilty about stealing the necklace and decided to return it. To that end, the following day, Susan took the necklace back to the store, still hidden in her jacket. After the store closed, Susan retrieved the necklace from her jacket and placed it back in the display case. As Susan was walking out of the store for the night, her manager approached her and confronted her about stealing the necklace. The manager explained that the entire episode had been caught on the store's surveillance cameras. The manager also told Susan that her nefarious activities had been reported to the District Attorney’s Office. Assume you are the prosecutor assigned to review the case. Which crime (if any), has Susan committed?
