Reply to comment by Racer_Bait in El Rodeo Mexican Restaurant, 2 Casa Tequila restaurants, and owner Gilberto Reyes stiffed workers by nearly $456K; court settlement made. by Azr431
To really put that in perspective, Class A Felony theft in NH is a theft over $1501. A person who commits a Class A felony theft is subject to up to 15 years imprisonment and a fine of of $4000 or twice the value of stolen property.
Gilberto stole almost 304x that amount from his workers, but not one mention of jail for his crime. Yes he has to pay $900K in restitution to the workers, but given he's been doing it for years that's probably still well within the "cost of doing business"
