Kewaskum Man Accused Of Having His Kids Steal
Bikes, School Clothes Stolen Wal-Mart, ShopKo

POSTED: 1:48 pm EDT July 19, 2004

WEST BEND, Wis. -- A 39-year-old Kewaskum man has been arrested for allegedly having his children help steal $1,400 worth of merchandise.
West Bend Sgt. Gus Unertl said the man and three of the children took three bikes from an area Wal-Mart on Friday.

(snip)

The suspect and the four children returned later to Shopko to steal more merchandise. But that time, an alarm was triggered by his two carts, and store security responded.
But the man escaped and abandoned the children at the store. He returned to Kewaskum where officers arrested him.

2. What a surprise that a total immoral
coward like that would abandon his children. What a sick fuckhead, I hope he's put away for a very long time and isn't allowed any further influence on his kids.

4. First, teach them to steal, then teach them that they are expendable and
abandon them.

3. When will people learn
Kids make horrible accomplices. They don't have the intelligence to resist interrogation for one thing, and they also can't follow instructions.

"Sunday, Unertl said the man took all four of his children to ShopKo and allegedly told them to pick out school clothes. He allegedly told them how to remove the security tags on the merchandise .

The suspect and the four children returned later to Shopko to steal more merchandise. But that time, an alarm was triggered by his two carts , and store security responded."

Looks like someone didn't pay attention well enough!

5. How old are these kids?
Of course what he did is wrong, no matter how old they are, but I'm just curious as to how young he's teaching them things like this.

6. Come the apocolypse, the kids' new skill might save their lives.

Kids could be anywhere from 15 to 40 by then.

Besides, they're doing what corporate leaders do.

We're not a civilized society. If we were, we'd be looking out for each other. Not just ourselves while stomping on everyone else in the process. We are NOT Christian though we like to think we are. (at least our leaders and CEOs)

7. Sounds like values and skills for the new Amerikkka, of a few Rich vs.
99.9% very poor!!!

Good for him!

The real question is what kind of systyem pushes people into these schemes in the first place? What were his parents (or not), what made him go to this?

8. At least this is a better family than the Bush clan!!
The Bush elders taught their kids to lie, cheat, steal and kill in many cunning ways. On a scale not dreamed of, or achivable, by this guy and his kids.

9. IF he's registered to vote (and that's a huge IF)
I will bet he's a republican. I don't think this because I think pugs are petty thieves (actually republican types excel at white collar crimes).
