He faces 10 months to 16 months in prison

I wonder if they'd consider house arrest, y'know, so he could get to watching the movies.

Put him in the slammer until he watches them all.

Weathers was arrested in February 2008 after investigators filmed him taking DVDs from packages and slipping them into his backpack.

Can I put that movie on my NetFlix list?

restitution costs of about $38,000

A bit over $1.00 per movie? Seems way too low.

When we were in Michigan, our son’s Netflick account was closed because we were not receiving the disks. Several times we received an empty envelope. We contacted the postal service a couple of times about it. Good to hear he was caught.

Obama to America:

You put up with crappy service from the Post Office.

You wait in line forever to be treated rudely at the DMV.

You tolerate being harassed by the IRS for taking legitimate deductions while top government officials get a wink and a nod for blatant tax fraud.

You put up with government intruding in your life while taking your hard earned money and abusing you at every turn.

So why don’t you like my health care plan? It’s just more of what you are already putting up with.

This pathetic loser is perfect for the Obama administration.

Afterall, he steals, lies, cheats and steals some more.

The jokes about him working for Obama would be funny if they weren't so true.

I looked for a picture of Myles Weathers but couldn’t find one.

Let’s see if I have this correct...

Copy ONE movie and it’s 5 years in prison and a $250,000 fine.

Steal 30,000 movies and it 10-16 months and $38,000 in fines.

Yep, I guess that makes sense in MA and DC! Hmmmm.....

Good thing he was only stealing movies from the mail and not downloading them - can you imagine the “piracy” fines for that?

I googled to see if there were any photos of the guy, and those articles all said he stole more than 3,000 DVDs, not 30,000. Leave it to Time to get it wrong.

When I send my nieces and nephews cards I always write “enjoy the $100!” Then I lick it and seal it. Then I rip it open and close it back up with tape. That way it looks like someone stole the $100 but I still get the credit.

The only time I had a Netflix video disappear was when I dropped it off at the local post office.

I suspected it had been stolen, and never did that again.

Netflix is good about forgiving a few missing DVDs, luckily.

That’s less time than Plaxico Burress got for asserting his 2nd Amendment right to be armed.
