http://www.historiccity.com/2012/staugustine/news/florida/sheriff-calls-off-manhunt-in-identity-theft-case-24905Sheriff calls off manhunt in identity theft case
St Johns County Sheriff, David B Shoar, informed local Historic City News reporters that he realized it was time to call off the dogs in an identity theft investigation that tied up his entire cybercrime investigation unit for the past 48 hours non-stop. (snip)
It was easy to get confused on this one, Shoar told reporters. They didnt prepare us for this type of eventuality at the FBI National Academy.
Shoar said he would do it again. The $92,000 paid had to be spent on something, Shoar was heard to say; as he considered whether or not to take the kitten to the veterinarian for a medical evaluation.

(113,778 posts)3. isn't it something when it is becoming harder and harder to tell what is news, and what is from
the Onion?
I am reminded of a line attributed to tom lehrer, who, on hearing that kissinger got the nobel peace prize, said he was giving up political satire.
