50 in 5: A Movement to Reduce Violence in Retail

A cashier was dragged by her hair. An elderly jewelry store owner was brutally beaten.

This is the reality of retail today, and it’s unacceptable.

Auror’s 50 in 5 mission sets a bold goal: reduce violent retail crime by half within five years.

In this episode, Auror’s Phil Thomson, Terry Sullivan, Raul Aguilar, and Alaina Kring come together to explain why this mission matters and the collective effort needed to make it happen.

Through their experiences in retail leadership, law enforcement, and partnerships, they bring forward stories from the frontline, examine the role of intelligence and AI in prevention, and underline why communities cannot allow violence in stores to become routine.

This conversation is both a warning and an invitation to act with urgency, because each act of violence leaves scars that statistics can’t measure, and the responsibility to stop it belongs to all of us.

In this episode, you’ll learn about:

Why violent retail crime is more than a loss prevention issue
How frontline stories fuel the urgency of 50 in 5
The role of intelligence and AI in stopping repeat offenders
