Knuth faces up to 11.5 years stemming from a felony theft that occurred in October 2007. Wait - what burglar leaves socks at the scene of a crime?
- Anthony Salinas, 18, of Hammond, IN, who is facing two charges of dealing cocaine, allegedly told a police informant that he raised the price of his product by $25. The reason: the rising cost of gas upped delivery expenses. Oil prices really are hurting everyone.
