Three people ran a scheme to steal thousands of undelivered Amazon packages but were busted by cops after they dumped hundreds of boxes in Oklahoma, authorities said.

One man accused in what the Oklahoma County Sheriff’s Office called a “massive Amazon theft ring” was apparently a third-party delivery driver for the company who may have loaded extra pallets on a truck, cops said.

The stolen packages were taken to a home in Luther... some still wrapped on pallets, cops said..."...stored throughout the home in almost every room and filled the storm shelter..."

"Deputies identified the perpetrators as Cesar Yasnier Cerqueira Rojas, an undocumented Cuban immigrant, who drove a delivery truck owned by Dinneris Matos Delgado. Police also arrested Maikel Perez Laurencio, 38, who they said was also a third-party driver and undocumented immigrant from Cuba."

this is what is really meant by diverse 'cultures'

The are just doing the crimes that Americans won’t do.

I hope they got my beloved's wedding ring.

I wish I'd ordered a hundred of them, to make it worth their while, except I can't afford such an extravagance.

"truck owned by Dinneris Matos Delgado" (doesn't state whether or not she is legal/illegal)

Amazon is hiring anybody with a pulse in my neck of the Florida woods. No surprise they are getting robbed by their own employees.

In the linked Facebook post, Oklahoma authorities said the truck owner was a legal immigrant from Cuba.

I guess they be white people for crime statistics.

It would be a very interesting contest to give a ‘winner’, say 200 random boxes of stuff ordered by others on Amazon.

You’d pull them out of a mailing center, scan them, so they get replaced for the rightful buyers, but then send them to the ‘winner’.

I suspect that I’d throw out probably 98% of the contents of the boxes, either because I have it (and probably copies of it), or because it’s stupid item to own.

W told us illegals were hard working family types.

They wouldn’t be in trouble if they’d just followed the delivery truck around until the driver tossed them out or waited at the return warehouse dumpster.
