The point of ur thread is to say that many of us at 19 wouldn’t have the character and integrity this kid did in that situation.
You just decided to call him stupid for it.

Pretty much every state has laws on the books that stipulate if the owner of the money is easily identified you have to return it to them. Most of those statutes even include the inference that if you say find a wallet and cash laying next to it that it is safe to assume the money belongs to the owner of that wallet.
In this case one can safely assume the laws would be interpreted that one can and should assume that if the funds were found next to an ATM that they belong to the bank because you sure as heck can’t withdraw that amount.

Not only that but it would have been counted multiple times and by multiple police officers as soon as it was turned in.
And it shouldn't be. The bags should be left sealed.
Trusting police officers to count that amount of cash is stupid

I’m in the “turn it in” camp, but what laws would someone be breaking that would lead to an arrest?
I’m not sure if they could make a charge stick, but if it was right next to an ATM, I wouldn’t be surprised if they could get an arrest warrant.
I’d be interested to see what someone in law enforcement has to say.
EDIT: Well there it is, thanks Cymry Teigr
Sad that people like the OP would need a law to tell him to do this, but that’s the world we live in.

Yes
It's more of an anti police sentiment
There have been instances in the past where people have turned in large sums of cash found to the police and the police just keep it for the department.

Just stahp.
Your OP is about the kid being stupid because “muh economy”.
You sound ridiculous.

And you were dumb enough to take it at some sort of serious face value

Your feeble attempts at trying to salvage this thread are sad.

I'd be more interested in what an attorney has to say. LEO are typically morons.
The kid did the "right" thing but I think the better thing to do in that situation would be to contact the bank. Unless this was just some lone terminal not outside of a wells fargo location.

Even if you were joking the whole time, there really wasn't any humor to your ruse.

Right. Because Wells Fargo is such an upstanding institution it would be a shame if they were out a few dollars

It’s not about someone else. It’s an internal dialogue within yourself.

Easy to tell who on here you wouldn’t want working for you.

I don't know what to think about dropping 135k and not realizing it. I don't think that guy is driving a truck for Wells Fargo anymore.
