Police: 81 cars missing from dealership; 3 execs in custody
CNN ^ | March 12, 2009

The owner of a Nebraska car dealership and two executives were in police custody facing theft charges Thursday after 81 cars were taken from the dealership's lot, authorities said.

Police became aware of the case Tuesday, when they received a call from Toyota company officials, Spencer said. Toyota told police they had received a call that all of Legacy's new Toyotas were gone from its lot.

Employees arriving at the dealership for work on Tuesday also found the three executives gone, police said. They had packed up their personal possessions. Some computers were gone, as well. Fait and Patch's homes in Nebraska were on the market and empty, Spencer said.

In all, authorities found, 81 vehicles -- mostly Toyotas but some Fords as well, valued at more than $2.5 million -- had been moved off Legacy's lot over the weekend and on Monday. At least some of them were moved by a Utah transport company that was paid with a fraudulent cashier's check, Spencer said.

The woman involved has been found very guilty. See previous threads.

This story has been floating around a day or so and I never read it. I went and read the story and I still don't get it. I imagine they had some brilliant end plan in which they get rich and disappear.

..or 2 of them end up in a woodchipper and one of them gets rich.

I saw something funny the other day. The movie “Fargo” was a fake. It was supposed to be a true story and it really did seem like one but the makers conned ever one.

It was totally made up.

In fairness, the movie opened with a statement that indicated that it was based on real events (even though it was obviously not). My wife hates that movie. It gives a totally false impression of the people of North Dakota (especially given that the people in the movie are from Minnesota). I love the movie - it’s funnier than hell - especially the “woodchipper”.
