A man took a check to U.S. Cellular in Des Moines to pay his bill. The check ended up in the trash, un-shredded, where it was discovered by Christopher Hunter Johnson. Johnson then altered the check and deposited it into his own account. The crime earned Johnson five years of probation. [source]

I don't want to forgive Johnson but why isn't U.S Cellular taking better care of its customers? They should be shredding all the paper work that comes through their offices.
