Can You Believe These People?

And we wonder where all those "extra" bags rotating around the carousels go after everyone leaves. Well, if you're in Phoenix, there was a good chance one of these two picked it up. Thanks to the AP and news.com.au for breaking this story:

After being spotted stealing a bag from an airport carousel in Phoenix, Keith Wilson King was arrested and jailed only to be spotted doing the exact same thing days later. That allowed police to search his home only to reveal luggage everywhere! In fact, the police believe there to have been about 1000 pieces throughout the home. Also arrested was his wife, Stacy Lynne Legg-King


The contents of the bags were removed so there wasn't much that could be attributed to any certain traveller. Neighbors reported seeing a horse-trailer being driven on and off the property at night and regularly saw luggage being sold in garage sales (Now I know how people make money off of eBay!).

Phoenix is now considering checking your ID when you leave with bags in the future so when everyone has to do this, costing you another 15-30 minutes of waiting time leaving the airport, blame these people.
