My daughter who is only 13 was held against her will even after I got there for 4 1/2 hrs until police arrived by Claire's employees. When I contacted a lawyer, I was told the store can hold someone for as long as it takes the police to arrive which in El Paso's case, FOREVER. They even had her and her friends stand in frontof the window with all the stuff they had stolen in front of them. Needless to say, my daughter has not tried to steal again.
