When Apple Store employees go rotten (and to jail)

What would you do with $150,000 in stolen iPhones? I’d probably go to a shady foreign government, maybe in Latin America? These guys went to…some dude…who bought them all.

As what often happens when people make such audacious moves against their own employers, these two iPhone thieves are both in custody and facing felony grand theft charges. Geniuses, my foot.

As to what happened to the high roller who purchased all the phones, we’re not quite sure yet, but he’ll surely have some explaining to do.

The government of this country is way more capable of being 'shady' than any in L.A. And not it is capable of, but it is!
