Somebody needs to break into Walmart and Steal the Damn Surveillance Footage

Managers? No. But I'm sure the employees that clean the shitters are.
Bold move using Hok fan and manager in the same sentence.
Said it in the THT thread, I'll say it again here: death penalty for both the program and himself.
When you have 2 total items you don't forget to scan 1 item.
Definitely easy to forget something on the bottom of the cart when you have a cart full, obviously wasn't the case here.

More concerning is why you were buying RD's at all if they had other apple varieties.
Um, because they are red AND delicious.
And cheap (for apples).
I just might have a plan that stands a chance at sweeping this debacle under the rug...
Not worth stealing, though probably not worth the time to enforce it either.
Hell.. even if it's an accident and the evidence isnt great.. do you hire a lawyer over this or just pay the $100ish including the fine and court costs and move on?
I will be reporting you to the proper authorities, could you give me an estimate of the date and time as well as the Hy-Vee location where this took place?
Russia, if you're listening, I hope you're able to find the surveillance footage of Talen Horton-Tucker shoplifting less than $10 of merchandise from a local Wal*Mart.
I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press.

It's not up to me to get their freaking system correct. It would help if Wal Mart would hire a few cashiers. They purposely hire the slowest people on Earth to man the lines and try to force people into the self checkout.
I get why they do occasional video checks and prosecute for even small amounts. Everyone sees that it would be so simple to walk out with something there. When it makes the news that they are checking and prosecuting it will make most people think twice about walking out with something no matter how small and inexpensive. It's called prevention and it is money well spent.
I have a hard time believing that he forgot to scan one of his two items. I could see someone attempting to scan one and not realizing that it didn't scan, but you should recognize that the price is off by over $5.
I'm sure glad I didn't do anything stupid in college.

Hopefully they are prosecuting evenly. I mean they just happened to notice the 6' 7" Black Guy and watched a little closer. Opens them up to a lot of scrutiny as well.
A little trivia for you. The Red Delicious variety was originally called the "Hawkeye" out of Peru, Iowa but was marketed as "Stark Delicious" by Stark Nurseries who bought it. They also bought a golden apple and named it "Golden Delicious". Eventually the Stark was dropped in favor of "Red".
Now think Hawkeye every time you bite into one.
To be fair, I'm pretty sure he was thinking Hawkeye State, not Iowa Hawkeyes since it was 1892. Iowa started playing football in 1890 and there was no real consensus on a nickname for University of Iowa teams for several years with names like "Cornhusker" being thrown around. Cornhusker was eventually copied by Nebraska.
You don't know that. The white 5'8" convenience store clerk from Boone who gets charged with stealing $10 of stuff from Wal-Mart never makes the papers, but that doesn't mean it never happened.
