Dear {Receiver}

I am very sorry for stealing from you and your store.

Any explanation I offer for my actions would only be attempts at excusing immoral and unlawful behavior. Please accept my sincerest of apologies for the inconvenience and the disruption of your business operations.

While I only ask for leniency, I will respect the decisions that you make and will accept the consequences of my poor actions. Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,
