1. ““The defendant entered a continuing objection, which was overruled, to any evidence of the department store theft on the ground that it was evidence of another crime introduced without compliance with the requirements of State v. Prieur, 277 So.2d 126 (La.1974). Prieur , however, was designed only to regulate evidence of unrelated crimes otherwise-inadmissible except as permitted by La. R.S. 15:445, 446 to prove knowledge, intent, or system. See Prieur at 277 So.2d 130 ; State v. Banks, 307 So.2d 594 (La.1975); State v. Jefferson, 284 So.2d 882 (La.1973). The circumstances surrounding the department store theft by use of a credit card stolen in the robbery were independently admissible as relevantly tending to prove that the accused was a principal in the robbery as utilizing the proceeds thereof. See State v. Davis, 311 So.2d 860 (La.1975).””
