Student charged with stealing rare documents

FBI agents arrest William Scott, 18 on March 14th and accuse him of steeling documents and rare letters from archive. In the 25 years the university has hired students to work in the archive and has never had a problem like this. The theft wasn't even noticed until a potiential buyer recieved damaged documents. Some of the stolen items included: letters from President Abraham Lincoln, President Roosevelt and madame Chaing Kaishek. Alot of money was stolen and ruined.

Disturbed.

How could you steel or ruin priceless history. I mean these are things we should treasure not hurt. If he is the person that did this he deserves a very nice punishment. I believe we should keep are history safe and taken care of so many generations after us can have the oppertunity to enjoy them!

  1. I agree with you here. This history needs to be left where we can all see it. We silly humans just want to have everything for ourselves. We get so selfish. Listen to this song, "Famous Flower of Manhattan" by the Avett Brothers on youtube. It's about selfishness, and letting go. Cool song. Hope that dude still has the things he stole!
