From the article:
“The father and son stand accused of stealing at least 80 items of U.S. Government property worth in excess of $80,000, while working at the United States Property and Fiscal Office, West Virginia warehouse. Russell Morgan served as Warehouse Supervisor between June 2009 and August 2016. Sergeant First Class Morgan worked as a full-time Federal Technician with the West Virginia Army National Guard at the USPFO-WV.
Count three of the indictment accuses the pair of embezzling an inflatable bounce house from the Government. The indictment goes on to accuse Sergeant First Class Morgan of forging the property document to downgrade the bounce house’s condition to unserviceable or condemned.”
Bad headline by the editor or reporter.
It wasn’t just the Bounce house involved.
I imagine the Guard unit had it for unit family activities or community events.
Okay... how about just renting the daggum thing?
As for the headline, they write them to get you to read the article. Prosecutors believe the pair were swiping stuff from Uncle. This might have been what tipped someone off that something wasn’t *quite* right there.
An indictment on an incident that happened 8 years ago lodged against “little people” when we have such major crimes like the Awans, Uranium 1,Pedophile and Child traffickers, INC. and the FBI gone rogue. I’m glad I won’t be on that jury, I’d find them innocent just to spite the government’s case!
What is the statute of limitations on such a crime anyway?
