He really was sitting on a gold mine.
Leston Lawrence, a Royal Canadian Mint worker convicted of stealing 22 gold “pucks” by smuggling them in his rectum, was sentenced to 30 months in prison Thursday, the Ottawa Citizen reported.
“I’d just like to say thank you, sir, and that’s it,” Lawrence, 35, told Ontario Justice Peter Doody, who also ordered the former mint refinery operator to pay a fine of $145,900. “No further comment.”
Lawrence was convicted in November of stealing the gold pieces, worth more than $127,000, during a three-month period beginning in late 2014 and then reselling them and spending the proceeds. Lawrence, a mint employee for seven years before he was fired in March 2015, was planning a new home in Jamaica and sent roughly $25,000 to a contractor in the Caribbean.

I guess the “it was a million to one shot” defense didn’t work.
...And the judge presiding over the case was Judge Doody because, of course he was.
The jokes just write themselves.
A new twist to an old movie....
“Goldfinger”
The article went farther and called it “Goldsphincter”.
Lol

Dude was likely s**ting bricks when he was caught.
(someone had to do this joke, people!)
Anyone with a gilt conscience, should be forgiven their sin.
I think I just figured out what a “butt nugget” is. LOL
Peter Doody, d’oh!
That right there, deserves a ‘goatsie’.
My gut feeling is more individuals were involved in this, I would be checking those security guards and those responsible in accounting for all the gold.
... damn near killed him!
Reminds me of the prisoner in ONE DAY IN THE LIFE OF IVAN DENISOVICH. “Eat the ore, escape then s**t gold!”
I wouldn’t want that many peckers near my...oh, you get it.
LOLOL! Very good!
