LIFE IN NEW YORK.
LIFE IN NEW YORK. The New York Times reported here on how two men in New York tried to cash a man’s social security check and presented the man’s corpse as identification evidence. What is notable is that the Times covered the incident. I can remember when The Post, The Daily News, and the Village Voice reported on this kind of story, but the Times did not.
I remember a few years ago there was a spate of stories about dumb criminals that you greatly enjoyed, Dad. My favorite story was about the man who committed a robbery, then ran into the dark woods to hide… while wearing light-up sneakers.
Not that this story is a robbery, per se, but I have a feeling the deceased didn’t intend for his friends to receive his social security benefits.
