Prove in court they took the cash, “wallet was empty when i found it.”
not too bright to be carrying enough cash to get butthurt over it being took. I’d give up a $100 to get all my personal stuff back.
im with you on this one pure BS they got arrested
Who cares. Get those Russians. Those commie bastards. Get rid of the Russian vodka too. Pour it out. Don’t sell it. Take it off the shelves. Was digging a hole in the backyard some time ago and thought I heard voices that sounded Chinese. Scratching noises too. Let us not be deceived. And besides, found a wallet once and got alot of bubble gum. What you gunna do. HaHaHa
Should have just thrown it away. Thats what you get for kind of trying to be a nice person.
