File under pure karmic poetry:
ST. PAUL (AP) ― A delegate to the Republican National Convention says he was robbed of more than $120,000 after he took a woman to his Minneapolis hotel room.
The Denver man told police he met the woman in a bar, then took her to his hotel room at Hotel Ivy. Police say that once there, the woman made the man drinks and told him to get undressed.
The 29-year-old delegate told police that was the last thing he remembered.
The grifter took the guy's $30,000 watch, his $20,000 ring, and his $5,000 necklace.
Let me repeat that:
The grifter took the guy's $30,000 watch, his $20,000 ring, and his $5,000 necklace.
Which means that she also took about $65,000 in cash.
You know, I do okay. And in my 40 years on this planet I have never even seen $65,000 in cash.
Why the fuck does a delegate at a convention need $65,000 cash? Who was this shitwizard intending to grease?
And is it me, or does this hapless mouthbreather just somehow perfectly personify the culture of naked corruption in this party?
Would that they all get such comeuppance...
The man is a single attorney in Denver. He tells the St. Paul Pioneer Press that he doesn't want to comment because the case is under investigation.
You have learned well, young Jedi. I wouldn't want to comment, either.
UPDATE: Wonkette has video of this genius here. Seems the guy reports only $500 in cash missing, which leaves the open mystery of how the tally reached $120,000. Was he carrying microfilm?
