I caught someone stealing a felony amount of alcohol by using their young children(<5) and they acted like I was the wrong one in the situation.

You got caught, accept the consequences of your actions. Nope, I am the bad guy because I recognozed someone who stole a felony amount of an unnecessary product the other week, watched them on the cameras, and called the police station next door to wait in the lot for them.

They also didn't show in court and got a warrant for it.

I don't understand that level of incredulous lack of accountability for your own actions.
