Default Using dead peoples credit cards.....a new low!

Here's a whole new low! A county's coroners' employee stole a dead person's credit card to use for lap dances! Then when the judge sentenced him he tried crying his way out!

I've heard of folks going on a spending spree on their parents and grandparents credit cards too after they pass and then saying "I have no idea what those charges are!"

As long as there's money at stake there will always be those folks who want to squeeze a dollar out of them, even if they're dead!

Why this man thought he could get away, I have no idea.

The charges would obviously take place after the time of the cardholder's death. That would only mean the card was stolen. Depending on how the person died there most likely wouldn't be many people in contact with the person after they died, having the chance to take the card. That narrows it down right there.

Then using the credit card at a strip club where he probably spent a lot and there would be witnesses who remember it all. This man was almost asking to get caught.
