A Michigan man scrubbed a monument to U.S. troops with a toothbrush Tuesday while wearing a T-shirt that read "I Stole From Veterans (http://javascript<b></b>:siteSearch('I Stole From Veterans');)" as part of a punishment for a scam to solicit scrap yards for metal, the Saginaw News reports.

A judge ordered Philip Kolinski (http://javascript<b></b>:siteSearch('Philip Kolinski');), 73, of Carrollton Township, Mich., to wash the veterans monument outside the Saginaw County Governmental Center (http://javascript<b></b>:siteSearch('Saginaw County Governmental Center');) after he was found guilty of soliciting metal donations for a sculpture dedicated to Iraq War (http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,292538,00.html#) veterans that was never built, the Saginaw News said.
Instead of using the metal for a monument, he sold it and kept the money, the paper reports.

Saginaw County District Judge A.T. Frank also ordered Kolinski to to pay $9,000 in restitution and $2,095 in fees and fines.

:shock Over 70 years old and stealing from Veterans... I'd hate to see what he would have been like when he was 50 years younger...:shock

i'm smiling too

Well that was a very fitting punishment. Props to the judge. :)

Thanks for sharing this, it was interesting!

Kudos to the judge! That man is a scuzball!

That put a smile on my face too. So sad he'd do that and at his age too...

I would venture a guess that he was a draft dodger. The asshole.

Hell yeah! Good and fitting punishment.

I would venture a guess that he was a draft dodger. The asshole.

:yes

I don't understand why his age is shocking to some. Bad people don't just turn good because they age...he's probably been a grade A ass his whole life. Do people in this country really expect better behavior from the elderly:thinking

WOW..............:D........Great punishment.....

hehe

thats awesome!
