I agree with his mother....

Yeah, should have been 10% the cheapwads. Only one in a hundred would have turned it in, make a decent example of it and maybe more will follow suit the next time it happens.

God will bless him. Doing the right thing is its own reward.

He is better Man than me. I would head to Vegas right away.

Okay, you’re a rich person looking for an honest gardener to tend the grounds of your mansion... You’d BE ABSOLUTELY NUTS not to hunt this guy down, hire him, and pay him well for the rest of your life.

The Bank of America money bag was lost March 11 by Brinks Armored truck drivers.

Bank of America. No bank has given out more loan to illegal aliens based on the Matricula Consular card. He should have kept the money, or donated it to I.C.E.

[SeanOGuano]

Maybe he saw “No Country for Old Men.”

[Izzy Dunne]

I take it that the bank knew there was $140k in the bag to start with (and not $160k, or $180k, or...)?

“They should have given him 10 percent,” Estrada’s mother told the Times.

Yes, they should have, but how crass of her to make that statement!

[TexasCajun]

I think I'd had let FDIC or BankAmerica's insurance take that hit.

I don't think I would have felt that bad. ...maybe I would?

The rewared was less than 2%.

[llevrok]

They should have given him 10 percent," Estrada's mother told the Times.

Then mooch off of your actor nephew Eric then lady. Not the insurance company. Geesh!

[KoRn]

I would have been $140,000 richer, having kept 100% as a reward.

[rawhide]

Yes, I agree also. 10%.

[The Great RJ]

It would be tough spending that $140,000 without raising suspicion. You certainly couldn’t deposit it in the bank and even paying cash for big ticket items could get you a visit from the police or IRS. However, you could spend it a little at a time and probably not get noticed.

[McKayopectate]

Good for him!!

[ontap]

What could they have said if he had just turned in say, $120,000

[PGR88]

$140K on the ground? I would be looking over my shoulder all the time for the drug-dealers who I would imagine would want their money back.

[Rome2000]

BOA probably makes 140K every second in overdraft fees.

[varyouga]

If the cops found the cash on him they would take it anyway.

All cash over $10,000 is drug money until YOU prove that you earned and saved it.

[devere]

Mother is correct.

[maine-iac7]

I agree with his mother....

Me too. A pox on them
