“an employee had been eating three to five slices of ham nearly every day over eight years.”
On top of his legal troubles, dude needs to see a cardiologist. That ain’t healthy.
Ham is fairly lean. It's the salami topper that's the health problem here.
How can they prove that the perp ate the meat every day for 8 years? If they can't, it's not grand larceny, it's petty theft.
Maybe it was low sodium...
