Reuters: "Robin Hood" banker sent to prison
BERLIN (Reuters) - A German banker who stole money from rich clients to help poor ones has been sentenced to two years and 10 months in prison, a court said Thursday. The 45-year-old, dubbed by German media as a modern day Robin Hood, diverted 2.1 million euros ($2.79 million) to clients he felt were needy while holding a senior position at a savings bank in the southern region of Tauberfranken.
Good. I'm glad that fool is going to jail.
Stealing is evil and wrong. Being poor is not.
