10 Jul, 2007

An Albany, GA landscape worker was sentenced to seven years in prison for stealing $127,000 worth of pesticides from his employer over a two-year period.

According to a report from WALB News, Chad Cox would take the pesticides a little bit at a time and then sell them on the Internet auction site, eBay. His employers eventually discovered the theft when they noticed a shortage of inventory.
