Greetings fellow Bizarros:Now this woman had the right idea...for an embezzler. She stole small amounts of very movable commodities over a long period of time. But like most thieves, she got caught being too greedy.
An employee of a New York jeweler stole close to 500 POUNDS of gold from the firm over five years, taking one small piece at a time hidden in her purse.
Authorities said that Teresa Tambunting, 50, a longtime employee of Jacmel Jewelry, brought a suitcase filled with an estimated $868,000 worth of gold back into the company's office after an investigation was launched. Authorities allegedly found another 400 some pounds of stolen gold at the vault manager's home.
"The defendant is accused of establishing a virtual mining operation in Long Island City which siphoned off millions of dollars' worth of the precious metal from her employer," the district attorney said in a statement.
"It is alleged that this once-trusted employee carried out her long-term scheme by concealing jewelry and raw gold in the lining of her pocketbook."
My question is...why did she keep hundred of pounds of stolen merchandise in her home? What is the point of stealing all of it unless you are going to fence it? It doesn't make any sense!

MyBizarreNews*-- Minn. firefighters douse flames in drag --*PADUA, Minn. - Two male firefighters didn't let their off-the-shoulder, floor-length dresses stop them from doing their duty during the weekend, Minnesota fire officials say. Sauk Centre Fire Chief John Egan told WCCO-TV, Minneapolis, the two Sedan Fire Department firefighters were dressed in drag for Saturday's parade in Padua. Despite the "hot" numbers they were wearing -- one a bright coral gown and the other turquoise -- the two firefighters jumped into action when flames erupted from a nearby pickup truck and spread to a second vehicle. They used a fire hose to extinguish the blaze.
*-- Man wore only sheer hose on lower body --*ROCHESTER HILLS, Mich. - Authorities in Michigan said a man being sought for 10 indecent exposure incidents was seen wearing nothing but sheer pantyhose on his lower body. The Oakland County Sheriff's Office said the man has been seen wearing nothing over his genitals but the sheer pantyhose 10 times in the Detroit area, most recently last week at Salon Bliss in Rochester Hills, the Detroit Free Press reported Tuesday. Workers at the salon said the man asked about getting a Brazilian wax. "The man walked to both sides of the counter, apparently so that everyone could clearly see him," the sheriff's office said in a news release. Deputies said the man, who also wore a button-up shirt, a baseball hat and slippers during last week's incident, is also believed to be behind similar indecent exposure incidents in Canton, Auburn Hills, Bloomfield Township, Chesterfield Township and West Bloomfield. The suspect was described as in his 50s or 60s and about 6 feet tall with a pot belly.
