 HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) - The couple who had their daughter taken away by Child Protective Services during their infamous Safeway sandwich shoplifting case had their case officially dismissed.
Monday's court hearing was a mere formality after Safeway announced it would not pursue shoplifting charges against Nicole and Marcin Leszczynski.
In late October, the couple said they each ate a sandwich while shopping and forgot to pay for it.
The couple was arrested and their daughter, Zophia, was briefly taken away when a manager pressed charges.
I don't see why they didn't haul away only one of the parents instead of leaving the child orphaned at the store for a $5 sandwich. Btw, Hawaii's original name was the 'Sandwich Isles' after the Earl of Sandwich who sponsored discoverer Capt Cook's expeditions.

I never could understand how something like a $5 sandwich can end up costing the tax payers 10's of thousands of dollars or more. Crazy world we live in.

Unreal.
When I was a kid I worked at a grocery store that made GREAT calzones. Not the "pizza folded in half" crap either, but real, rolled calzone. They were BIG too. One day they caught a woman taking one into the bathroom (I know, gross) and eating the whole cursed thing in one sitting. I was more impressed than angry.

Since we're switching to dumb theft stories, I've got a good one...
Spent a few years working for Big Brown (UPS)... Had a loader (In the truck, sposed to be stacking boxes as they came down a conveyor). Suddenly his conveyor started backing up, so they went in to check on him.
We had the world famous Collin Street Bakery in our area, maker of.... fruit cakes...
This.... Einstein... had seen one of the fruit cakes coming down the conveyor, popped the box open, ate the fruit cake and then decided to take a nap.
Now, here's the kicker... The fruitcake was being shipped to another state. That meant it was theft of interstate commerce.
Federal offense. FBI was brought in.
So this... idiot... now has a federal rap sheet...
...for eating a fruit cake...

HAHAHAHAHAH Fruit cake!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love fruit cake actually. Shoulda popped those losers when they were walkin around the store. I used to get my daughter .25 of those potatoes at the deli when we went shopping. I was a single Dad. She looked forward to shopping and was an angel in the store. When I got to the register the cashier mentioned the bag was empty. "Ya didnt hear the kid screamin didja". Never thought about ditchin the bag either. ITS A QUARTER!!!!!!!
