A University of South Florida dean is being investigated after surveillance video captured him taking a red bike from the loading dock of the Johnnie B. Byrd, Sr., Alzheimer's Center and Research Institute.
Dr. Abdul Rao, senior associate vice president for research at USF College of Medicine, said he took the bike on Monday to help a "nearly homeless'' friend and intended no harm.
Video of the theft has been posted on YouTube.

Can I rob a bank for a “practically homeless” man?
He makes almost a half-million a year in salary and 'stipends' and chooses to steal a bike for his "friend" who is practically homeless.
Why not go to WalMart and buy him a $50 bike?
Ah, crap. Everybody knows he's lying and everyone knows the USF administration will let him off.
Teach a man and you feel good for a day. Steal a bike and give it to a man and you feel good for the rest of your life!.............
PS- Ignore the capitalist lies about his $400K salary, this is typical propaganda from the West. Besides this brave comrade would not consider supporting a capitalist bike company when one can simply be liberated.
From each according to his ability, to each according to his need!
“Actually, if you look at the timestamp on the video, the “borrowing” took place at around 8:45 PM. Is the DMV open that late?”
I wonder. Could there be more to this incident? I think so.
The video shows a passenger in the front seat, but the tape doesn’t show anyone exiting the passenger side of the car on the tape. Bearded man takes bike. Someone else in the car? They purposely went to this location to steal the bike. I guess I’d like the bearded guy checked out.
Is this Sami’s school? I don’t trust what goes on in South Florida.
Where is the outrage. Here is a man who’s employer is taking government money, producing nothing tangible of value and making much more than his students have any hope of making in their future.
The Feds should cap University employee salary and bonuses to $150,000 (\sarc, sort of)
If you operate the bank, the law requires it.
Fixed it.
:)
Can they print this guy's name? Think of the profiling risks that could create.
Hmmm. University of South Florida. Dr. Abdul Rao...
Maybe his “homeless” friend needed it for making a bicycle bomb.

Great radar! (similar thoughts set off mine) Thanks for your work.
Better get used to it. If this administration has any thing to do with it, within a year or two, tht's all you'll be able to own; because if you have anything worth stealing, they'll steal it.
Nothing will happen to Dr. Rao but the grad student who reported her bike stolen? Better start looking to transfer. I’ve seen quite a few professors who think they own their grad students.
The good doctor was probably friends with the other terriost that was at USF. Look at his resume.
After earning his medical degree from Dow Medical University, Karachi, Pakistan, in 1983, Dr. Rao completed his residency training in Orthopedic Surgery. In 1987 he joined the Department of Physiology, Boston University School of Medicine and graduated in 1989 with a M.A., in Physiology. After completing a year of post-doctoral Research Fellowship in the Department of Neurology, Harvard Medical School, he joined the Nuffield Department of Surgery, University of Oxford, Oxford, UK, as a Clinical Instructor from 1990-1993. He graduated from the University of Oxford with a D.Phil., (Doctor of Philosophy) in Transplantation Immunology in 1993.
What in the article makes you think he isn’t an American?
“Is this Sami’s school?”
Yep. They’re one and the same.
There’s more to the Muzzie/Commie Dr. story, evidently he was being compassionate to his friendly cocaine dealer:
Take Abdul Rao, a University of South Florida vice president who makes $384,280 and owns a five-bedroom home assessed at $441,738. Pair him with Victor Waiters, a Miami handyman who travels to Tampa to do handyman work.
Waiters has been arrested 29 times since 1988, including 2005 convictions for cocaine possession and resisting an officer, reports the St. Petersburg Times.
Now the professor is under investigation for helping the handyman steal a $100 bike from a student at USF.
It’s on video. They drive to a research center and look over some parked bikes. The handyman takes one bike for a test ride and rejects it. He settles for another and walks it down the center’s loading dock ramp. Then the minivan drives away.
Now, about Rao, who claims a lack of judgement.
A thief or a nutty professor?
Humm good point, here I was think he could be a Senator
or
Robin Hood
Now days, it’s about the same
Steal from the poor to.... Oh wait -
USF overpays their academia by a long shot
