Punishment for Pounds of Pilfered Pennies

Here's a tip: If you're going to steal money from your boss, bills are a lot lighter.

We wonder when this genius figured that out. Associated Press tells us Robert Napolitan is charged with stealing about 300,000 pennies from his employer. He is accused of loading up a 1,600-pound drum containing $3,000 in pennies from Pyne Freight Lines of Taylor PA.  To add insult to stupidity, Mr. Napolitan was caught because he rolled his Jeep, lots of pennies were found in the vehicle, and he confessed to the theft.

Bail is set at 5,000,000 pennies.  DB
