Mike.......I read that article yesterday and it made my blood boil. I hope the thief gets five years minimum. This is not the first time I have read about pilfering jewelry, watches, and money from dead accident victims by first responders including police. People who do this are vultures with no morals.

Yep, this is tantamount to abuse of power; not just simple theft. Five years would make him think a little bit.
