I’ll bet $100 Jose is an “undocumented immigrant”.

Seventy seven saws? Granted it was over the period of a few years, however, did he not think that Amtrack might actually look for the missing saws ? Possibly, maybe, perhaps ?

I worked for a place that had tons of valuable old junk laying around. They would keep it until all the value was written off on the books, then to prove it was worthless, they would destroy it.

I’d bet this guy was doing net good for the world.

Rodriguez faces up to 10 years in prison on each count if convicted, along with a maximum fine of $250,000.

I bet thus guy does far more time for his $50K theft than Kevin Clinesmith, the FBI lawyer who fabricated evidence for the FISA Court to get Gen. Flynn indicted.

My Dad worked on the New York Central Railroad. There was a massive derailment involving boxcars full of car tires - almost every guy who worked in the freight yard had new tires on their cars a few days after the accident.

“one count of theft from an agency receiving federal funds and one count of theft of government property “

using the same statutes, I wonder what we could charge Hitlery with?

I guess if you sell it first and THEN get your Vig, it’s not the same?
Or is that just for uranium?

I’m so confused . . .

The total estimated value of the items was $53,535.

And 35 cents.

I always suspected Amtrak trains were made of chainsaws.

I don’t know. I see an entrepreneur. Wouldn’t hire him to run the stock, but strikes me as an out of the box thinker.

$53, 535? He probably made well over twice that every year, and could have worked for 20 more years. Throwing away $2 million for $50K does not seem like a sound life strategy.

Dang, I am thinking about getting a new chainsaw, because my 3 are getting a bit old (the newest is 20, and on its 6th bar, 50 or so chains...)

Oh well, I suppose I’ll have to pay retail. Sigh

The guy screwed over a great job with nice bennies and paycheck for a lousy $50K.

Dumb.

He should have just declared he is an illegal alien and he’d get 100k per year in free stuff.

If Amtrak paid $53,000 for them, it probably amounted to 3 chainsaws.

Rachel Honig is just using her white privilege to go after a BIPOC man.
