If I understand it, a woman with dementia took her life savings and buried it in her neighbor’s garden.
If that’s the case I think he should have given it back.
Yeah, claiming “finder’s keepers,” past the age of 8, is pretty pathetic.
Finders keepers.
If I see you drop a hundred dollar bill, yeah, it’s common courtesy to give it back. You bury it on my property, it’s a donation.
said his lawyer, Robert Burke....That is where it would have gone, anywho. If the neighbor buried it, tough crapola. If she was that bad off, someone should have looked after her. Of course they would’nt unless they figured she had some stash. TS. If you found briefcase with that amount of money, no ID and no advertising as to who lost it, what would you do? I’d keep it, shut my mouth and dole it out to myself at $9000 bucks at a crack. I’ve found LOTS of money in bank bags from people who forgot to deposit it and left it on top of their cars, bank envelopes and bands of cash with identifiable names on it and returned this cash to the original owners. Never got a thanks. I’ve also found bank envelopes laying on the street with no name, no receipt and treated myself.
