Change of heart

A customer walked into our store yesterday and immediately upon walking in approached an employee, saying that he had stolen some merchandise several months ago. He explained that he wanted to make amends.

Wbat a bizarre circumstance. To a person everyone that heard the story imagined some kind of religious awakening; I've had a hard time coming up with a more suitable hypothesis. It doesn't seem likely that he could ignore his conscience for several months and only now surrender. We don't exactly have a team of detectives and bounty hunters tracking down suspected thieves. There are those that we are quite suspicious of, let alone people that have been arrested several times for theft only to return again and again, but as far as I know this person was new to all. Perhaps he was involved with Jack Abramoff somehow.
