Man fined after returning more than £10,000 in cash

Post by Captain Awesome »

You'd think that finding more than £10,000 in cash, in a bag next to a cash machine, and returning it to its rightful owners would be applauded. But for one man, all that it resulted in was a £300 fine.

Moral of the story: Don't lie to the cops.
All that is required for evil to prevail is for good men to do nothing.

The moral should be: don't lie, period.

ACTUALLY, the moral of the story APPEARS to be:

"If you find a swack of cash, take it and keep your fat mouth shut!"
